  • Unfortunately, yes, our brains are still wired almost exactly how they were when we were hunter-gatherers; we just stuff it with more knowledge now.

    Back then, sure, greed was a necessary survival instinct to have food over the winters, and hand-outs were risky.

    We haven’t adapted to the modern world, and the abundance available to us.


  • I have the same situation, no, unfortunately there hasn’t been any improvement with mixed DPI or fractional scaling yet, though I believe that is something that will be considered once the codebase has been adequately modernised.

    I spend most of my day away from my desk so it’s not a blocking issue for me, I just use my laptop standalone at my desk, might consider swapping my 4K monitor for a 1080p one from my work.



  • If you extend your quote to the full context:

    Anybody who’s treating others nicely is welcomed.

    So their stance is entirely neutral, they make no explicit effort either direction which I believe in their eyes is discrimination.

    As a transgender non-binary omnisexual individual, frankly I couldn’t really give a toss.

    It’s important to keep in mind that a project, especially an open-source one, is not one voice. Sure, there may be more public-facing figures who may give a project bad PR, but you have to remember the countless people behind that person, and treat a project by it’s actions not it’s prose.

    I am also not trying to “convince” you to “join” this project, not everything is a competition. I am sharing my desktop, which I believe is cool because it’s running on a fork of xorg-xserver, that is the purpose of this community.



  • I’ve got a family member who has a “nice” electric car, upwards of like £70,000.

    They swear by it, say it’s the best car they’ve ever driven, so easy, comfortable, etc.

    In-person I’ve only ever heard them complain about it, it’s meant to unlock as you approach, that never works, using a charging point takes about 30 minutes to get it to work, they turn off about 5 different sensors and alerts before setting off because they default to on.

    Oh, and, “the roads are too narrow”, or “these spaces are so small”. No, you drive a 6ft wide car.

    The copium is strong with this one.
