Do it! Do it! Do it!

We'll destroy American companies with Regulation 654/2014, aka a trade war kind of "Order 66", which, among others, will void all IP rights of US companies in Europe.

Free piracy and many billions of losses for US companies. All because of Trump's stupid big mouth. I'd love to see that!

Thanks for the detailed explanation!

Distribution and user theming is also significantly improved over GTK with programmatic generation of themes—automatically adapting colors at runtime to the most ideal contrasting color values via OKLCH and other related algorithms—which distributions can use to customize to their preferred branding, and app developers can freely adopt without needing to worry about user themes breaking their apps. Users also get the convenience of generating their own custom themes with COSMIC Settings, even if that means creating an abomination of conflicting colors.

I've themed my 22.04 install to death -- literally -- as one would expect from a first Linux install. I've been clicking through multiple GUIs where only the checkboxes, dropdowns and radio buttons showed, zero labels or descriptions. Most recently the Raspberry Pi Imager.

They initially made a GNOME extension that contained their theming and an (optional) tiling for windows. Also some GTK apps, such as their app store frontend.

I still use it daily on my gaming pc (Pop!_OS 22.04) and it sucks. Slow, unresponsive, janky. And this is an extension that they had been maintaining for years. Apparently GNOME devs don't really consider extension developers and it was like building on quicksand for the Pop team.

For better or worse, they made a decision to build their own fast, responsive COSMIC DE due to these frustrations with GNOME.

I am still on the old 22.04 with GNOME, but already started using the new COSMIC Store app GUI last year.

It is a HUGE leap from the old Pop!_Store and feels great.

The rest of the DE is probably not ready yet, otherwise they wouldn't call it Alpha.

Oh and apparently they've made it really easy to brand the whole desktop env and are hoping for more orgs and companies to adopt it.

Many of these are much more expensive than the Americans. I understand why, but still.

I did find Intercolo S3-compatible storage, which is even cheaper than Backblaze.

Any one else spot cheap EU cloud services for a homelabber on a budget?

The "Peter" bit reminded me: Years back, there was a viral trend on Dutch socials where women shared a hashtag "I am Peter" to raise awareness that there were more people named Peter in Boards of Directors than women.

Hoezo joodse zaal?

Based on Ubuntu, so: also Debian

Quoting from reddit:

How is it going to break? Music Assistant dealt with the issue it seems. Most oauth providers don't allow redirect to non-HTTPS endpoints, so this is a very common restriction. It's why do many of the oauth connections redirect to https://my.home-assistant.io/ - to provide the "secure redirect" required.

Pride flag?

Maybe it's plant-based bacon?

You are aware it will take almost 3 years to fill it if you keep this up every single day?
