Firefox won’t be able to do this without Thunar supporting it, but someone else already posted that Thunar does support it.

Big difference to the Wikimedia Foundation is how much money they need. The Mozilla Corporation (which develops Firefox) has around 750 employees.

Optimistically, only 500 of those are devs and work on Firefox. If you pay those a wage of 100,000 USD, that makes 50 million USD of costs just for wages.

Firefox has less than 200 million monthly active users, so everyone using it would need to donate $0.25, or alternatively 1% of users would need to donate $25, yearly.

That’s a lot of money to hope people donate, and this is a very optimistic ballpark estimate.

Yeah, the amount of money they get from donations is so tiny compared to what they need for developing Firefox, that they don’t even divert it for Firefox.
They use it for activism, community work and in the past, they’ve also passed it on to other open-source projects, which are also important for the web but don’t have the infrastructure or public awareness to get donations directly.

I mean, if we’re talking about all those problems, the no-type-annotations issue is rather specific for Python, JS/TS and Ruby.

But in general, I feel like there’s somewhat of an old world vs. new world divide, which happened when package registries started accepting libraries from everyone and their cat.

In C, for example, most libraries you’ll use will be quite well-documented, but you’ll also never hear of the library that Greg’s cat started writing for the niche thing that you’re trying to do.

Unfortunately, Greg’s cat got distracted by a ball of yarn rolling by and then that was more fun than writing documentation.
That’s the tradeoff, you get access to more libraries, but you just can’t expect all of them to be extremely high-quality…

Yeah, same. The game where that screenshot is from (DCSS) also has an ASCII mode, where that skeleton dragon would probably look like this: D

The text log would say that a skeleton dragon appeared, and I could even imagine a skeleton dragon by itself quite easily, but when it comes to a whole room full of monsters, then it’s just a lot of info to keep track of. The small textures are almost like icons, in that they’re a compact way of telling me where which monster is.

On the flipside, you give real intelligence 32 pixels and it infers photorealistic images:

(The textures are 32x32 pixels. Yes, that’s technically 1024 pixels, but shhh. 🙃)

I guess, their tiers weren’t already confusing enough…?

Man, I’m getting tired of everyone and their cat saying shit like “AI will…”.

With how loosely defined “AI” is, it probably will at some point. But that statement is also completely worthless.

At first I thought, they’re releasing this news now to drown out the Concord news, but 30 year anniversary, maybe they did have this planned a little longer. 🙃

It’s a slang word to mean the outfit or accessories. I believe, it started out regionally, but it’s been popular with the current teenager generation.

Yep, that is precisely what my terminal does out of the box…

Hmm, good idea.

I’ve been using the “Black on White” theme in Konsole, because that’s the only real light theme it has, apart from Solarized.
Well, and apparently for some reason it uses brighter colors for what should be intense colors. Just setting the yellow to a normal yellow already improves it quite a bit.

I guess, my point still kind of stands, like why is there no better light theme included out of the box, but yeah, I should probably look into theming a bit more…

I wish, light mode worked better in terminals. Every so often, it’ll throw some yellow text at me, and it’s just like, cool, I literally cannot read that.

Sounds like it, yeah.

I feel like there’s just too much competition. They would’ve needed some hefty marketing budget to get across why people should play this instead of Overwatch et al.

Yeah, I find the similarity most striking with LibreOffice Draw vs. LibreOffice Writer. It very much feels like Draw is just a superset of the features of Writer.

There is certainly some differences, though, e.g. text doesn’t automatically overflow onto new pages, text boxes don’t automatically increase in size, things like that.
Everything is a lot more static, which is great for layout, and less great, if you just need to type out some text.

Nah, I dislike all the other people using Excel. I once saw it used for providing a deployment configuration, which then got parsed from that Excel and pushed into a repo. Like, goddamn, just let me edit the repo directly.

There’s so-called desktop publishing software.

In the open-source world, I typically see Scribus recommended.

Yes? Again, I’m not saying there’s not going to be disagreements or politics, I’m just saying that it’s going to be less loaded than Linux kernel politics.
