Hungary’s Orbán travels to Moscow, days after Kyiv trip ( www.euractiv.com ) Englisch

Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán travelled to Moscow on Thursday (4 July) to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin, only a few days after his visit to Kyiv, on a trip that earned him stern rebukes from EU officials and diplomats.

NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for staying more than ONE VERSION behind

Joke's on you, my servers are largely unaffected by regreSSHion because they're too outdated.

Blender uses Alt+A.

It consistently uses Alt as a modifier to execute inverse operations. I to insert a keyframe, Alt+I to delete it. Ctrl+F to set a text filter/search, Alt+F to clear it. Ctrl+P to set parent, Alt+P to clear it. H to hide selected objects, Shift+H to hide unselected objects, Alt+H to unhide all. {G,R,S} to move/rotate/scale, Alt+{G,R,S} to reset transformations. It's not exactly industry standard, but internally consistent that makes learning it easy.

Ctrl+D to deselect is stupid.

From the torrent, the deluge, the unending tidal wave of this exact meme in various formats. The "exit vim difficult" meme must constitute at least 50% of online content regarding *nix and *nix-adjacent systems. It is so stale that Slackware considers it outdated. It is the "mayonnaise is spicy" equivalent of funny. It is the white bread, picket fence stereotype of meme culture, yes offense. I'd like to say that it's beating a dead horse, but the horse is gone; its flesh has been tenderized, pulverized, and evaporated from the sum total of energy imparted by the constant beating. If the heat death of the universe were to happen tomorrow, and from the uniform vacuum energy a Boltzmann brain were to spontaneously form, it will have been already tired of this meme.

But to answer the question, it was either that, or the big

type :q<Enter> to exit

splash that appears when I open it with an empty buffer, and following its instructions.

No offense to you or your house, but I'm really tired of this meme.

Anyone praising GNOME can be dismissed if they forget to define client-side decorations for their comment.

(this comment was made by The Entire Desktop *nix Ecosystem Except GNOME gang)

As I understand, the person who ultimately made the decision to ban Vaxry was also on a massive power trip.

Right now I'm in a bit of a bind because part of my workflow relies on exporting particular layers and layer groups as separate images. GIMP has a plugin for it, but it uses Python 2, no longer developed, and likely won't work in GIMP 3. If Krita can do this, I'm switching immediately.

Isn't that what the basic "Export" does?

Authorized without consent. That is what Louis Rossmann calls a rapist mentality.

Bon Jovi David Bowie and Harambe were the cosmic glue that kept the universe's shit together. Nothing's been normal since their deaths.

Fuck, I mixed up my musicians, I meant David Bowie!

successful project

That is a very biased claim. It's like saying that the PS5 is the most successful gaming platform because God Of War: Ragnarök and Ghost Of Tsushima players prefer it over Xbox and PC.

I don't think "there exists an unknown number of non-Ubuntu machines with snap installed" is a valid metric when the general sentiment seems to be apathy. It's popular for the same reason Internet Explorer was popular -- it's forcibly installed with the default OS.

If the numbers were favorable, Canonical would release them.

rtxn ,

I said "apathy", not "negative". The people who dislike snap have likely moved to other distributions, and I don't see any widespread praise considering Ubuntu's market share within the Linux ecosystem, so the most likely answer is that people either don't know or don't care about snap.

Whether or not an application is packaged as a snap is also a poor indication. Most of the software used in Ubuntu still comes from an APT repo, mostly official or sometimes a PPA. Many developers distribute their software exclusively as flatpaks, appimages, or binaries. Shit, Valve even recommends against using the snap version of Steam. By using your standard, snap would be considered an abject failure.

your comment doesn't include client-side decorations and doesn't link to a decorations provider, you'll have to fix that next time

Design spec?!? :( STANDARDS AND ETHICS?!?!

FYI, GNOME recently broke Adwaita on non-GNOME apps because they started using nonstandard icon names without providing a fallback. Any way you look at it, it's GNOME shovelling the shit.

What do you mean? linkin_park_-_numb.mp3 clearly has an extension, it's all the other files that don't!

You are on this council, but we do not grant you the rank of master.

It's probably cheaper to import a Zetor or MTZ from Europe, the 70s-80s models are still very much in use.

rtxn OP ,

Inline mode only means that the elevated command runs in the same terminal instead of opening a new window. You still have to get past the UAC prompt.

That hill has a name. GNOME. Wayland's governance on the whole is a fucking disaster (alternatively, the best sitcom you'll ever see), but GNOME is a particularly malignant growth on the project's taint, with completely baseless NACKs that have delayed some protocols by months, and missing/incomplete features in Mutter.

The setting you're looking for could be in %appdata%
It could be in %localappdata%
It could be in C:\ProgramData.
It could be in the registry. It could be in HKLM. It could be in HKCU.
It could be in any of the userdirs.
It could be in the application's directory.

HA! Joke's on you, it was an envvar all along!

True story.

The fuck kind of programming language is "smalltalk"?

rtxn ,

I feel the same way about Haskell. Every program I've used is either a "Look at what else Haskell can do!" example, or an endorsement of universal packages whenever I have to update 200 haskell modules.

rtxn ,

And you linked to piped.video so the spambot didn't give it away. Impressive.

Read this and your brain might get a new wrinkle: it's possible to appreciate multiple distributions for their own merits.

Win9 was the shit. Literally a flawless release. No vulnerabilities, no bugs, surprisingly little spyware. I don't think I ever had a BSOD with 9.

rtxn ,

Some sort of hidden, concealed, clandestine internal QoS implementation in Windows. Reserving a portion of network bandwidth for high priority traffic sounds like a good concept, but I don't like the fact that this is so hidden (I've been working with computers for many years and I've never heard of it until now), and that the mechanism to determine the priority of a packet is unknown.

rtxn ,

I love shitting on Windows as much as anyone, but that is a completely baseless, fictitious accusation. And if not, give me a credible source.

If anything, I'd keep spyware traffic as low-profile as reasonable in Microsoft's place.

rtxn ,

I've seen an entire factory shut down for hours because two critical Win10 computers tried and failed to update. It's never an issue until it becomes one.

Plus a failed update is the whole reason I nuked my C: drive and switched to Manjaro (now running Arch, put down the pitchforks).

I bet my left nut that QR code leads to a rick roll. (edit) yep.

Friendly reminder about the name of this community. None of this should be taken as anything but a joke.

The Venn diagram showing the users of 196 and Linux is more or less a circle.

Both sides ARE bad. The trick is to use critical thinking and realize that one side is "stupid and misguided" bad and the other is "literal nazi, genocide against minorities, and also very stupid" bad.

Then there's runas, who fell and broke several bones right at the start, but still says he participated in the race.

Privilege escalation on Windows is a fucking joke.
