By design, they don’t know how they work. It’s interesting to see this experimentally proven, but it was already known. In the same way the predictive text function on your phone keyboard doesn’t know how it works.

GIMP doesn’t mean anything though (besides for GNU Image Manipulation Program)? Why are you bringing it up?

I use empty cardboard boxes and shoe boxes to store my coin collection, and one to use to dry out my spools of filament.

What books are they? It’s possible you could find them on one of the sites linked on fmhy.net

No single source. I like how Verity collates the facts and the spins from multiple sources across the web.

“Aside from the viable political ideologies, what are some viable political ideologies?”

I would also recommend the chatbot HuggingChat, it uses open weights models

Making this a TLC to promote visibility, though I wasn’t the one to discover it:

⚝ U+269d “Outlined White Star”

I think it works great, in reference to the rainbow star thing!

And none of those y axes start at zero, which is additionally misleading as it exaggerates the level of change.

Lol, the US is bad. So are many other western countries. That doesn’t make Russia good, or even less bad.

Did you edit your comment to say you were a Christian or did I just miss that? If so, I apologise, your conception of God is quite likely similar to most Christians! I do fail to see how the argument for a transcendent being predicates the Christian God specifically, though, no offense intended.

If so, your definition of ‘God’ is so far removed from what most people take God to mean as to just invite linguistic debates over debates over the thing itself.

Not before they add polls.

Both of them periodically stop working for me, so when it does I switch to the other for a bit. In my opinion, LibreTube looks better, as it uses Material 3 design.

Windows 10 wasn’t even on my list as it is not a modern OS any more (it has been replaced by Windows 11), but even so it had a better UI, without those weird UI features that just serve to look bad

• floating taskbar at the bottom, not actually at the bottom, above it
• those blue highlights around widgets that do not look good
• that horrible off white colour for widgets
• general bad design

And of course windows 11 and GNOME improve with even more UI features

• blur
• transparency that actually looks good
• rounded corners that look good

Basically, it’s not one specific thing that makes KDE look bad, but rather their general approach to design, which seems to be ‘we don’t care what we’re doing, we’ll just set the default to something random as we expect users to customise it anyway’ which is fine for advanced users, but not so friendly to new users

It might be GNOME or it might be Windows 11 (although of the Linux ones it’s still GNOME), but KDE is clearly (subjectively) the most ‘programmer art’ of the 3

Maybe unintuitive is the wrong word, but for new users the amount of options can be overwhelming, and the UI looks… not very modern by default, lol

It’s a big abstract to understand, are you trying to say that there are Linux enthusiasts that protest GUIs being made simple and intuitive, and that if they succeed, would-be Linux users will go back to Windows, which is more intuitive?

Maybe for KDE, but just introduce new users to GNOME, that’s perfectly intuitive and even looks great!

It was wrong then - nothing existing is far preferable to this world with all its suffering
