  • Liquid Glass is tacky

    Jump

  • But it didn’t replace a particularly good UI that inspired pretty much every OS and website that came after it, and people still call XP a Fisher Price UI. My point is that successive UIs should be an improvement, this is a downgrade, it’s just change for the sake of change. It’s somewhere between the original iPhone UI and the flat one.

  • I honestly remember the reception being really positive. I think the problem with LG is that for many of us it reminds us of the old days when companies would add all sorts of tacky effects to these UIs to try and differentiate themselves. So much of what’s in LG just feels unnecessary. It reminds me of an old MySpace page.

  • The Ubuntu experience:

    Jump

  • Aside from install and the first welcome screen I don’t recall seeing anything.

  • [Article] Doomed 'cannibal' star could soon explode in a supernova so bright it would be visible during the day

    Jump

  • Soon probably means in the next thousand years, the article isn’t clear. The star’s 10,000 lightyears away so whatever was going to happen already happened.

  • Would it be possible to shut down the internet, and how could that be done?

    Jump

  • It used to be possible as networks could advertise that they owned IP ranges that they didn’t actually own using BGP, which is what’s used for high level routing. This is what China did around 2010 where they allegedly routed all the internet traffic in the world through China for like 10 minutes. I guess somebody could do that and then just drop every packet.

    I expect that’s not possible anymore though, but I’ve been out the game a while so I don’t know for sure.

  • What names do you think will get popular in next ten years?

    Jump

  • Charlie

  • BBC ignores funeral of 31 Yemeni journalists murdered by Israel

    Jump

  • What is this headline trying to insinuate? The BBC does loads of Israel coverage on the shit they’re doing.

  • What's one youve had?

    Jump

  • I got into Jericho. A bunch of my friends got into Carnivale.

  • TIL Microsoft had to patch the Bluetooth stack on Windows because they didn't test their own Bluetooth mouse on it

    Jump

  • I’ve got a lot of time for Microsoft hardware. I remember around 2000 when if you wanted a mouse or keyboard you basically had to buy whatever abomination Logitech was flogging at the time. Then Microsoft came along and started making stuff that was actually a little sexy.

  • This game is fantastic.

    Jump

  • This game bugged me, it totally missed the SCP vibe for me and it put me off. I also found the combat pretty boring.

    I always liked the way that SCP is about a bureaucratic organisation trying to control and contain these supernatural entities. In Control they live inside an entity and literally let one control the organisation. That just seems so anti-SCP to me.

  • A man attacked the husband of congresswoman Nancy Pelosi with a hammer, almost killing him. Charlie Kirk laughs about it. He says anyone who bailed out the attacker would be a great patriot

    Jump

  • The headline’s kinda misleading if you read the articles. He said the attacker should be bailed out so he could be questioned. He also said the attack was “awful” and “not right”.

  • Powerful German Politician Manfred Weber 'promises' to reverse EU's combustion engine ban

    Jump

  • I’d actually rather they make electric vehicles more attractive than just ban combustion engines. People are moving over anyway, it’d be better if people were excited about changing instead of bitter.

  • Right-Wing Activists Are Targeting People for Allegedly Celebrating Charlie Kirk's Death

    Jump

  • I mean, I don’t think you should celebrate his death. He’s not gonna hear it, but he still has kids.

  • Banksy could be unmasked as police probe 'criminal damage' over Royal Courts of Justice artwork

    Jump

  • I’m pretty sure there’s plenty of people out there who know exactly who Banksy is. It’ll be like with The Stig, all the journalists knew who he was but the mystery was more interesting and sold more papers.

  • Megathread: Charlie Kirk Shot at Utah Valley University Event

    Jump

  • Wtf is killing him gonna prove? It’ll just make a martyr of him to the right and prove to them the left is insane.

    The way that shirt moves looked like it was pretty serious.

  • I found a sunken boat

    Jump

  • Why do your parents own a boat (or two boats)? I just don’t know anyone who owns a boat and I’m wondering why people decide they need one.

  • Which stage are you at?

    Jump

  • I use Fedora and openSUSE but I’m not sure if this graph is taking the piss.

  • I found a sunken boat

    Jump

  • Why do you have a boat?

  • All I Want for Christmas Is You

    Jump

  • I was in France the other day and a restaurant on the beach started playing it. Not sure they understood English around there. You’d think they’d know the word Christmas though.
