I have the same feeling always, so for my upcoming trip to Amsterdam and a visit to the Rijksmuseum I vibed https://rijksmuseum.matze.lol to concentrate on something I _want_ to see.

You cannot just get "cinematic" frames by using every fifth frame. The shutter speed at 120 fps is much higher than shooting film at 24 fps hence a lot less motion blur that is part of the "cinematic look".

With XWayland there is no urgent need for conversion. And "a lot of applications that just wouldn't load" sounds pretty fishy to begin with.

Wow, such broad statements ("universally", "major", "unsuitable") in a single sentence and backed by …?

How would you qualify "better"? For me longer lines to read does not mean better but worse.

Are you also complaining about other parts of societal funding that does not benefit everyone? You could argue about so many things that might not affect you directly (schools, police, roads, …) but at the end of the day you may also profit

The organisational structure causes what you can watch where and I am arguing that garbage produced by the "Thirds" is not only dumped to Das Erste but shown elsewhere as well. You gave me the current programme, I gave you "R

I am talking about the fact that the ARD itself is the collective group of all regional broadcasters (look up the name) and any programme is produced either by one of the regional broadcasters or by the shared production company Degeto. And

While these things feel like taxes they are not because they are not managed by the government. Taxes (no matter their labelled purpose) are pooled and spent according to the yearly budget. Other fees collected by an agency are spent just f

Of course when working with Git it makes sense to think in changesets. But OP was specifically modelling the technical side starting with "We have files, which are inert objects …".

by matthiasv 6y ago
While this sounds all nice it actually fails to model Git as it is. Git is an object database and its objects are blobs, trees and commits not diffs, so your premise is based on a misconception.

While the toolkit certainly has an influence on all core apps that are part of GNOME, the shell is entirely independent of GTK. So, highly unlikely there will be a GNOME 4 any time soon.
