In a violin it’s called an F hole.

Come to California. We have the best tacos and xlb.

Wtf you have to login to use notepad now? Wtf???

GlaDOS can run on just one potato.

Shit, if a porn star can score a triple double, I’ll take it.

My BIL is a Google engineer and he gave me (an iPhone user) a pixel 8 pro to test drive for feedback. The hardware is pretty darn solid and felt good in my hands and to my eyes. I really liked that it had both a fingerprint sensor and a facial recognition system to unlock. This made contactless payment a lot easier to use than an iPhone in my opinion. In general, the software is not as polished as iOS, but is more customizable and you can side load apps from alternate app stores like f droid, which is great. The killer feature as far as I am concerned is Firefox with uBlock.

Americans are fucking amateurs. In Japan (they also have stores in Hawaii and Guam) there is a retailer called Don Quixote (it’s like upscale Japanese Target). They play one song and ONE SONG ONLY on repeat during all business hours. 365 days a year.

I does my heart good to see more Silmarillion memes leak into lotrmemes.

Some people like the Apple ecosystem.

What’s burritos, precious?

RIP 😭

I had the same problem - see this thread for solution (you have to scoll down to the middle)

I think it’s funnier that JRD got labeled as Gimli tbh.

I’m not technical enough to think it through carefully but I’ve always thought there was an opportunity for an organization like USPS to develop email 2.0 - something that gives people some kind of verifiable and secure email address so that users can easily find each other whilst filtering out spam (or to have spam taken into consideration in the design at the outset). You would design it based on strict standards that would be difficult to get around so that big tech could not easily co-opt it, and adopt for some kind of critical function (taxes, voting maybe?) so that it would encourage adoption en masse. Make it distributed so that users can selfhost it easily, safely, and securely.

No CarPlay is a deal breaker for me.

I would pay good money to watch this. Bugs as Frodo. Porky as Sam. Daffy as Gollum. Marvin the Martian as Sauron. Foghorn Leghorn as Gandalf; Barnyard Dawg as Saruman. Elmer Fudd as Aragorn. Yakko and Wakko as Merry and Pippin. Hello Nurse as Eowyn.

See comment above from me. This doesn’t work unless you already have .desktop files and MIME types already configured for your app.

Sounds like I need to try xfce. But again - I shouldn’t need to change my desktop environment to do something fundamental that a GUI desktop environment should handle easily. No? Otherwise my desktop environment is just eye candy for xterms.

Nope. This doesn’t work when you have binaries that are not recognized by GNOME. You need to make a .desktop file for your binary first that define MIME types for that app. If it is a MIME type that is not recognized by the freedesktop.org database, you also have to create an XML file that defines your specific file type based on file extension or other characteristics. Then, you need to use Nautilus to set the default app. It’s a pain in the ass if it’s not a standard app from the Ubuntu App Store and a standard MIME type.
