I really do want to know though

I mean, I suppose I respect the commitment to just being unequivocally wrong.

It's not grammar it's an entitlement different word. It would be like refusing to call a dog a dog because you think it sounds better to call it a cat.

Edit - you know what, I'm leaving that auto correct in. Entitlement looks better here to me than entirely.

Consider this: when you speak the listeners know what you mean based on the rest of the sentence. When you write you give the reader the intended word through spelling. People who read will see your words and assume you really meant "then" instead of "than", and the sentence will make little sense.
The words "I" and "eye" sound similar, but if you write "eye" I will read a sentence first thinking you are trying to say something about an eye, then when it breaks down, go back and find the issue. End that my friend is less then eye-deal for comprehension.

Unforchunetly, Ingglish speling duzn't laiyn up with saowndz wun-tuh-wun.

Spelling things how you say them can lead to people misunderstanding or causing unintended(?) pain.

I hope this does not affect your usage of effect in the correct context.

As a former copy editor I find the effect of using affect incorrectly eye roll inducing.

But yeah, affect is a verb, effect is a noun.

The easy rule of thumb for then/than is that if you are comparing things or qualities or quantities of things, you use than, otherwise, then is used.

You literally used the word "than" in your comment just now.

The literal way to read what you wrote is to never ask Flatpak, in order:

1. how it can download more
2. the total file size

The only reason no one thinks this is what you mean is because of how many people also mess this up.

"Language is fluid and constantly changing"

Our education system is in the toilet and I didn't pay attention 😂

Upvoted because you have the sort of can do won’t do attitude that made American English great. Emerald for dictionarian!

Hoink me with your yimyam flutings.

Sir I have downvoted simply to help you reach a record know that in my heart it is an upvote.

I upvoted it because its nice for someone, anyone to be concerned about me.

They reject u even though you spoken truest worders good are.

Nobody who spoke English that read your sentence misunderstood what you said based and than vs then and that English doesn't have to be pretty to get the job done

You monster.

What the fuck is wrong with you lol

Consider Solarized Light, its is easier on the eyes

Well, you're half right. White was popularized by early home computers looking to reproduce paper digitally. Apple, Amiga, and Atari all did this and it stuck around a very long time. In fact, many environments are still in transition away from white.

Notable exceptions included professional audio and video environments who got into the dark themes early because they didn't want glare from their workstations affecting what they saw when editing in their dark studios.

please let your grammar be indication that this is satire

This sounds the most likely, most apps just hide retries, flatpak shows exact data transfered.

Could also be that the HTTP server lied about the content length.

Hence why Fedora Linux actually recently removed delta updates for DNF. Turns out it used more data in retries than just downloading a whole package again.

?????? Retransmitted packets don't get counted towards downloaded file size

I mean ostree is just git for binaries, isnt it?

But it will likely be the issue here.

Locales and runtimes are separate.

This is an interesting issue though, there is a lot of information flatpak doesn’t know ahead of time, it trusts the contents of the summary file generated by ostree for max size.

I want to do that, but not because of Flatpak. That's incredibly far down the list of things I find offensive in my professional life. At the very least it does fulfill some sort of purpose and also doesn't cost any money to use.
