This is exactly the thing that got me to try out Linux again after a 5-ish year hiatus. Once I realized they were teven trying to take this simple thing away from me eventually (windows 10 won't be supported forever), that was the last straw. I tested things out and I haven't seriously used windows since September. The games I care most about work now, and although there are several applications/features I really wish had a linux equivalent, it isn't enough to get me willing to go back.

With any luck I'll never feel like switching back again. Time will tell.

Maybe if you preempt every post by saying it's locker room talk, they'll excuse your infractions

I may be wrong but it looks to me like those charts are showing all cause mortality, right? So it's not just people dying from covid, but people dying in general whether they were infected or not.

I think having a moon base would be a better use of government money at this point.
Plus, John Madden!

I don't disagree with what is being said against Hillary. But to assume Trump is beyond this sort of conduct is at best naive, and the fact that people only point fingers at Clinton when talking about corporate corruption is a little odd.

There is Pinta, which aspires to be a unofficial port of paint.net. But it is slow coming, and many features aren't present that are in paint.net. But it's WAY better than almost anything else, aside from Gimp (but it's way easier to pick up and use).

We can only hope

I have been using Vivaldi in Windows for a while now, and it has a built-in vertical tab option. The browser isn't fully open sourced, but if Firefox ever goes too far off the deep end, it's nice to have an alternative that offers vertical tabs.

I accidentally modded you redundant, but now I'm commenting to say I agree and also sorry.

There's nothing terribly wrong with incrementally better levels of autonomy in a vehicle. They just have to label it correctly and responsibly. The biggest issue with Tesla's 'autopilot' is the name. They want the title to get a lot of recognition for the system, but they are also over-hyping it's capabilities. People need to understand going into it that autopilot is not complete, and that attention needs to be used just like with cruise control and auto-parking features in other cars. As long as people know the limitations exist and get reminders during the drive, you can't blame the automaker for using the features as much as they want. This is the quickest and perhaps the only way to eventually reach a fully autonomous car that needs no driver; with real world testing and baby steps forwards.

I bet next you'll tell us that was unintentional.

I think this is definitely different from normal product/service based ads, in that trying to talk to a stranger on a random webpage about something as private and life-altering as abortion is different from trying to sell them a new pair of shoes on that same page, or trying to convince horny guys that you can grow their dicks with magic bullshit pills while they are visiting a pornographic website. Context matters.

Your opinion on desktop interfaces is not universal. I would not say I HATE simple desktops like Mate or XFCE or LXDE, but the straightforwardness of Unity and the fact that it's mostly set up in a pleasant way out of the box make it more ideal for me. The trade-off is they seem to have a fear of supporting large amounts of interface tweaking, but every desktop has strengths and weaknesses.

I think teaching kids not to be immediately terrified of the genitals of other humans is probably a better choice in this situation. Sometimes it makes sense for a middle school kid of be afraid of a particular naked person, but putting such an enormous taboo on sex and the human body in every instance does not help anybody except people with a puritan mindset.

They DO have tab stacking along with their verticle tabs feature, which I tolerate... but it's truly no replacement for the unstacking method used by Tree Style Tabs in Firefox. I would rather them fold downward than pop up as big thumbnails all over the screen. They could greatly improve this feature by allowing users to turn off thumbnails in the tab stack and just having a column of plaintext showing tab names.
