All I’m hearing is complaining. It’s open source. Fix mate then so it does what you want.

Well, that’s on mate then. In KDE you could remap to a combo of your choice with ease

I don’t use mate, but assuming that it has a file manager and that file manager has hotkeys that conform to the muscle memory that is built using other file managers… Try it and see what happens?

Depending on the carrot, the skin can be significantly more bitter. And sometimes peeling can be quicker than trying to scrub dirt out of particular lumpy carrots.

YMMV

He cites his work as being a variant of a patch submitted by another developer, Josh Poimboeuf. It’s a team effort folks :)

I’ll play devil’s avocado.

There are some genres that were effectively created by the Japanese gaming industry (Nintendo and others). Pokemon and monster hunting/battling. Final Fantasy/Dragon Quest and JRPGs. Hell, I’d even say visual novels (like Steins;Gate and others). Japan has been hugely successful at exporting these genres that were already domestically successful. And so they became the reference standards.

But if you were to look at racing games, or flight sims, or dozens (if not hundreds) of other categories, you’d see that they’ve failed to break into these genres with any significant effect. Not because they don’t have the technical skills, but rather, they don’t fall into their niche.

Cherry picking Mario and Zelda is unfair.

Damn, I actually loved that temple.

It’s really rare for a project to completely rewrite to a new toolkit. VLC in circa 2007 did it (moved to Qt - even stole their volume control widget directly from Amarok at the time). GCompris ended up as a KDE project despite originating in Gnome (along with toolkit change, but it weirdly kept the name). LXDE->LXQT also. But I don’t actually have that many examples.

But you mean you wrote it in python with tkinter as a toolkit, rather than writing it in Tcl (which is its own language, like python).

Serious question: I’ve never met a programmer who has ever actually written anything in Tcl in the real world. If you’ve working in Tcl, tell me about it! What did you use it for and when? Was it awesome/terrible/etc.?

Forward slash doesn’t throw a mental syntax error? ;)

Outer Worlds. Colourful corporate dystopian. Purpleberry Crunch!

Well, you kind of can actually. It just replaces KWin

This sounds like the sort of infrastructure project the Linux Foundation should be supporting.

Sure, it’s just another tarball to compile and install, right? What do you mean lots of dependencies? Oh, well, I guess there is Krita :)

If we’re in string freeze, it’s probably within a few weeks. They’re in bug squashing and translations mode now. I’d take that bet.

As a former slackware aficionado, I’d have to say that the general mood of the users and development team was super chill. Hell, the name slackware comes from “slack”, the goal of the Church of the SubGenius. The whole thing is a meme that’s been going steady for decades.

I had the privilege of meeting Patrick and much of the core Slackware group at the KDE 4.0 release party. They are all awesome.

I can expect that users that tolerate the Slackware style are also those that are pretty laid back to begin with. Probably they were happier people already, and using slackware just vibes with them.

Linux on all their electric cars, and they’re watching porn while driving ;)

In KDE, there used to be man: as a protocol that you could use from Konqueror or anything else for that matter. Does it still exist?

I’m at work and cannot check.
