I thought one of the main advantages of sodium-ion batteries was price? Great for the applications you listed

Some distro that uses the Ubuntu repos blocked users from even installing snapd manually without jumping through a bunch of manual hoops. It's one thing to not preinstall it, but that reeked to me of exactly the "we know better than our users" attitude they were accusing Canonical of.

How about the maintainers blocking a package that's included in the default repository for ideological reasons?

The problem isn't that every gnome dev is bad - not by a long shot. The problem is that there are just enough gnome devs in just the right (wrong?) positions who have an "our way or the highway" philosophy that it causes problems not just for people trying to use GNOME, but for people (such as the Kate developers) who are trying to give their users a good experience.

And by being the default in so many distros, GNOME has enough clout that if they choose to abandon a standard, many people will change to whatever GNOME does, making their applications worse for people on other desktops.

In the end it's not too dissimilar to the problems created by the dominance of Chromium and Windows. The biggest difference IMO is that Google are actually more conciliatory towards others than the GNOME team are in many cases. Which is kinda crazy given how much Google can throw their weight around on the web.

That's a big waste of energy. Drop him in a volcano or something instead and send a scientific probe to the sun.

This raises further questions, since it seems his humanoid form is a facade provided by his magic powers. Do you get him in non-corporeal form, or do you get him like that episode where he became human?

Sounds a lot like Spur

Ewww WTF no!

Who even buys 2% milk?

Not to be confused with a miso-theist, who believes god exists as a form of soup.

Thank you! I had looked through settings for that and hadn't been able to find it.

As long as you have polkit setup to work in terminal sessions, yes. This is pretty standard these days, though not particularly widely used.

Kinda feels like writing a script that implements the sudo CLI but calls pkexec would be an easier way to do it. Given that so many systems already come with both sudo and pkexec, do we really need yet another option?

I'm not on the systemd hate train by any means, but I don't understand how this is any improvement over pkexec

...is pkexec not good enough already as a polkit based sudo replacement? Why would one need to systemd-ify that?

Isn't the crime with the highest economic impact by far wage theft? Maybe we could work on preventing that?

Yep. On Android there's also a Lockdown mode that you can enter through the power menu when you need to turn off biometrics for the next unlock. Set a strong password. Use biometrics when you need to keep out a casual intruder, and password when you need to keep out a major intruder.

It goes through whichever RCS servers your carrier is using. However I believe Google supplies RCS services for many carriers.

And just to note, the same is true of iMessage & Apple.
