Code written with box characters used on old old software to make fake UIs

You’re still arguing about tabs vs. spaces? May I present…

Pretty wild that a serious and common bug like this goes unpatched for so long. Requiring the user to either switch desktop environment completely or force terminal view and kill gnome (also crashing whatever application I was running at the same time)

I just installed pop!os and random freezes keep happening.I can still move my mouse but can't do anyhting with it. Posted in r/pop_os by u/GullibleMaybe4780 • 85 points and 101 comments

Update after first week of fully committing to Linux; Went with PopOS. Quickly ran into an issue with freezes which apparently has been an existing bug for 3+ years.

Turns out switching desktop environment from Gnome to KDE Plasma did the trick.

Tbh I’m having an easier time catching up with posts by people I follow here. For some reason the Following-tab feels less hidden away, and the discover tab isn’t just full of posts made by one rich guy.

Also; RIP to playing League of Legends due to Vanguard. Welp, to be honest that might actually be a pro rather than a con. 🙃

Just made the full switch to Linux for my gaming PC. Lutris made the move surprisingly easy, allowing for easy battle.net and WoW install.
Maybe I can finally leave Windows behind

Would love to se another poll after the 8-ball raises the rates 15 times in a row

things are about to get really dumb, huh

I think the bluesky team agrees at least

It is refreshing to read posts written by real humans.

How many programmers does it take to screw in a lightbulb??

None. That's a hardware issue.

I feel like there's a difference between lobbying and buying your way into a cabinet position.

I don't think you can compare Zuckerberg to Musk to be honest. Musk has just became an oligarch.
I've never liked the Zuck, but he seems way likeable than the other guy at the moment.

I think it comes down to this platform pretty much being good old Twitter, without 10.000 russian bots

Gonna be interesting to see if this trend holds up.
This app is wildly more pleasant than the alternative.

Deactivated Twitter account. New platform, new me.
