Whatever it is I hope we don't end up "selling out" for a higher market share. KDE is proof that you can have stability while also having infinite configuration options. Gnome seems to be openly hostile to any other way of doing things that isn't the gnome way.

I don't mind gnome existing but it isn't for me and I hope I don't get forced into using something that I can't modify to meet my workflow wishes. I'm seeing a lot more programs being written without prioritizing being desktop agnostic. I think we can forge our own path making a desktop that is both as stable as Mac OS and as approachably configurable as Linux should be.

Looking at the different admins on the homepage, a lot of them seem to have gone offline roughly two months ago and haven't been heard from since. What's that about?

Just download it and use the loop function on your media player program of choice?

If I'm reading it correctly, the abstract says they looked at participants' self reported 24 hour diet, and pegged the beef intake to calories eaten. Does anyone know where one might find data on diets reported over say, a month?

Can't believe Nintendo didn't make these for the switch angery you could have had one on each side it's so perfect.

I agree with that, but is it in flux irrespective of things that happen to you/it insofar as it does exist? It exists in this moment, so if you were to run this moment over again I would type this exact same reply every time, or else there would be no self even in this moment. Quantum effects are as far as I'm aware undeterministic (or at least thus far not understood), but I don't believe you could construct an idea of "free" will out of them either.

But like I said in another reply, if I'm not a philosophy guy and I figured this out myself more or less, why is there still so much discussion about free will in philosophy circles? That's why I assume that I'm missing something in my understanding of what they mean by free will.

So you're saying I can safely blob-no-thoughts when someone talks about it?

Regardless it feels like people wouldn't talk about free will so much if there wasn't anything to say about it, would they? It feels like a waste of energy, yet I see it discussed all the time.

It's been pushing me to consume more free content like podcasts and public domain audiobooks.
