Yeah, KDE is my preferred environment. The mainstream programs are well integrated, it's when you start using more specialist, single developer or very old stuff that things start getting "interesting".

I think win 10 was the last version I used, briefly. I agree, Ubuntu is well put together.

I think my comment was more true some time ago. The modern desktops are a lot more integrated and consistent than the days of FVWM.

Badenoch: Curb students taking 'rip-off' degrees such as English The performing arts, sociology and anthropology are among the subjects the Conservatives would like to cut

So, the plan is to cut English, the arts, and sociology - the degrees that actually study culture - while on another part of your platform claiming to “defend” British culture.

It’s performance nationalism with a reading age of seven.

Plus, with Linux you get to guess whether any particular program is going to display the OK button to the left or right of the Cancel button. Says a long time Slackware user.

Yep. It's why I call everything after 1066 current affairs, in the sense that the conditions and structures were set in place then that explain our current situation.

In the piece for @theconversation.com I argue that settlement used to recognise residence, contribution & community ties. Now it’s recast as a prize for those who can continually prove their “moral worth”.

We've been pretty steadfast in our rejection of the bidet.

‘We’re In Danger’: Leonard Peltier Has A Warning About Trump In a sit-down interview, the Indigenous rights activist reflects on his nearly 50 years in prison, why he thinks Biden bucked the FBI to free him, and how tribes are “in danger” under Trump.

NEW: I interviewed Leonard Peltier at his new home in North Dakota.

Now 81, he has a LOT to say about his ~50 years in prison, why he thinks Biden bucked the FBI to finally release him, how Indigenous people are "in danger" under Trump, and his next chapter. www.huffpost.com/entry/leonar...

#OnThisDay 25 years ago, Israeli forces shot and killed 12-year-old Palestinian boy Muhammad al-Durrah in Gaza as his father tried to shield him from bullets.

People with gardens, remember, if you can, resist the urge to rake and burn the leaves that fall from the trees. The fallen leaves provide vital nutrients for the soil🍂, and a winter home for many unseen critters🐛🦋🐞. A forest floor is a complete ecosystem #nature
