Another problem in the gnome panel:
There isn't a suspend button. To suspend I have to hold alt and then the shutdown button becomes a suspend button.

This is really bad ux. How can a new user discover this feature? I thought gnome was supposed to be simple

Currently in GNOME, the notification panel contains 4 things:
- song switcher
- notifications
- calendar
- weather

Why is there a song switcher in the notification panel?? Why not put it near the volume of the speaker?

Windows 10 is DRM digital RENTAL media. You will NEVER own your PC again.

There are no tasks not to be accomplished with Linux of modern that one did via Microsoft Windows.

Windows 10 setup now prevents local account creation; in practice it forces the user to sign in with a Microsoft account.

Yeah, rust is great and fast and all...
But... Have you tried compiling a rust project on a raspberry pi? A project like fd, or ripgrep, or bat.

Good luck with that.

I tried with fd and bat, and I get signal 11 errors from the compiler...
Maybe 1gb of memory isn't enough

Doom was released 25 years ago today. It was about 2.39 MB, the size of an average webpage today. News sites average closer to 8 MB.

10 years ago I started using ad blockers because I thought ads were annoying. Now I think that's the _least_ important reason to use them.

I think we should call them "browser firewalls." That more accurately describes their purpose.

Last week, I discovered #xpra ("Screen for X11"), and after a week of use, I'm impressed! xpra.org

I've used it to run graphical applications on one computer and interact with them from a different computer. And I can honestly say that I can't notice a difference compared to running the app locally.

It's basically what I always wanted #vnc to be—but without any of the lag I always experienced with VNC.
