I’ll have you notice that there’s also a gigachad in the meme, not just Kirk

AFAIK one of these are technical limitations, it’s just design choices. But in my experience, the design choices made following the gnome design guidelines tend to make apps with tiny faces

Gnome does have a lot of strong points, I personally use both

I have no issue with the text size, I have an issue with enormous empty space around the text. It’s fine if it’s not perfect on a 21:9 display, but this wouldn’t look good even on a 16:9 display.

I’m also fine with the text not taking up the entire width, I aggre that it’s less readable. But I think the window (not the text, the window) could utilise the width better.

I say that the messages could be a little more spread out (i.e. my massages could be a little to the right while other’s a little to the left) and just like the left sidepanel appears and disappears when the window is too thin, more sidebars could appear to the right when the window is very wide.

No, I want it to utilize the space a little bit more, this wouldn’t look good even on a 16:9 display. Which is a shame because when windowed it looks really good.

2560x1080 which is 21:9 full hd. Most programs don’t really handle 21:9 displays, but many GTK apps are particularly bad at it

Counterargument:

Admittedly this is a chat app, so there’s little to do. But still, it could stretch out a little bit more, maybe open the conversation info panel on the right

But you can ward off the bad luck by picking up the salt and throwing it over your shoulder

One of my university professors wanted us to program using DrJava, so of course Java 8 it is.

Why did he want to use that? Because it was similar DrRacket, which he made us use in the previous term to program Scheme (which is just lisp for teachers). Of course that was just us being all modern and such, he himself used DrScheme, the deprecated precursor of DrRacket.

This guy is so old that my high school Systems teacher had him as her university professor.

He has a fancy current gen MacBook Pro that he uses for his stuff. Then when it’s lesson time he whips out a windows 95 netbook and a daisy chain of adapters from VGA to thunderbolt.

You had to go out of your way for that. Not common sense. It’s still not water.

My definition is that if it’s something that common sense would call water, it’s water. This is the simple trick that defeats all stupid questions.

In your example, brine isn’t water because it’s brine, you even said that in the example.

And if you add food dye to a glass of water, it’s water but colored. Even with you yourself wrote the example implying that it should be water.

The oil with chalk emulsified in water has nothing to do with milk, what does it matter that it looks like milk. And as you yourself implied, it should not be considered water, but an emulsion of stuff.

And notice how I avoided talking percentages, I simply questioned your own common sense. You didn’t even think about it, and yet your common sense made the solution clear in your examples.

But even a genie can’t replace the water in milk with milk because it doesn’t make sense, so that cannot be the genie’s interpretation of the wish

Obviously that’s not what “replace all water with milk” means. It means just replacing the water in water form. Like oceans, rivers, and aqueducts. If it meant also the water content of other stuff like the body it just wouldn’t be possible, because milk is mostly water and you would have to replace that as well

Is there a scientific way to prove this? Or am I to just trust your words?

Anyone who’s a bit inquisitive about what words means will notice that “transform” means “changing shape”, and that the teeth that look like dog fangs are called “canines”. At that point, “caniformia” obviously means “dog-shaped”.

Specialistic terms don’t need to be easy for the layman, but to be explicative for the specialist. I can say that “a complete lattice is the generalisation of the power set of some domain” which is a phrase composed entirely of English words but if you haven’t studied anything about abstract algebra you don’t knkw what it means, but that is a phrase made for math students, not for any random guy.

Also those Latin terms are literally international terms, a Russian biologist will say “Canis lupus” to an Icelandic biologist and they will understand. So you really have nothing to complain about. Just be glad that Linnaeus used an agnostic language for international terminology instead of using his native language (Swedish) like the anglophones do.

P.s. you know that Mussolini had all commonly used foreign words and names translated to Italian? And to this day Italian children don’t study Francis Bacon and René Descartes, but Francesco Bacone and Renato Cartesio.

Well, corruption is better than crimson

If only…

Those are POSIX acls, and they suck

We could have had NFSv4 ACL, of which windows ACLs are a subset. In fact, every other unix os did… Except for Linux, they decided it didn’t fit well to Linux. And so we are stuck with UGO permissions, and posix ACLs.

I pronounce it spelling out only C H, but spelling them in my native language, so it sounds like “chee akka mod” and of course the same goes for “chee akka own”

So dogs work just like omegaverse fiction 🤔
