If we haven’t learned by the time we get fusion that climate is global and should be tackled globally, we deserve extinction.
I think we will be saved just in time by nuclear fusion and nobody will learn from this, just like nobody learned from COVID. The majority will probably shrug and go “see, wasn’t that bad”.
And KDE looks so much better than windows’ DE. It’s also more versatile.
Gnome just copied Apple, which I guess somebody had to do in order to have them switch to something that looks familiar.
Greenpeace won
And in doing so, helped doom us all together with big oil, gas and coal.
Anti-nuclear people in here arguing about disasters that killed a few k people in 50 years. Also deeply worried about nuclear waste that won’t have an impact on humans for thousands of years, but ignoring climate change is having an impact and might end our way of life as we know it before 2100.
They’re bike-shedding and blocking a major stepping stone to a coal, petrol and gas free future for the sake of idealism.
The biggest enemy of the left is the left
I guess you’re not an opensource developer. Let me put it in terms that you understand:
Let’s say you’re a pizza delivery dude. You have to be out every day, delivering people to rude customers, no matter the weather. It’s hot and your balls are sweating off, if cold and your fingers are freezing, there torrential rain and you get soaked for every delivery, but bossman don’t care - you have to do it!
To relax, you have a hobby as a wood worker. It’s your passion! You make small things to make life a little easier or things that look cool to you.
One day, you buy a cupboard that’s been all the rage. Every store out there has it and it’s flying off the shelves. But after a few months there’s something annoying about the way it works. Not a problem for you, the handyman, the woodworker. It takes a few weeks, but you’ve designed, built, and tested a few solutions to arrive at something that works. It’s not beautiful, it’s not trendy, sexy or anything, it just works.
Thinking to yourself “hey somebody else might find this useful”, you put the designs online. To your delight, there are a few people using it. Very few "thank you"s, but that’s fine, at least it helped somebody.
Then one day, some dude writes a comment about your solution titled “Build something beautiful or GTFO”.
Tell me, how would that make you, as the hobby wood worker feel?
Hilarious that they think that’s enough.
