@linuxuserspace takes a look at #gnome 's ptyxis.

Good convo once we get past the whole naming part. Most of this works out perfectly in Fedora since it's just named "Terminal", avoids all the confusion. I do miss the little green grass icon though.

You better believe we spent hours clicking on every single one of those. So nice to have good choices 🥹


But sure, tell me that the word fascist is too strong a word when referring to right wing speech.

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts knows that Justice Samuel Alito’s antics and ideology are getting out of hand—and that’s why he’s taking care to protect him from the public eye.

It's a rather large mystery to me why #Firefox from @mozilla has remembering search and form history grouped together in a single preference.
I want Firefox to remember my search history. I very much do not want it to remember my form history. Why can't I specify these separately?

what's the difference between a search box and any other form input?
in reply to cibyr

@cibyr I'm not sure whether you mean from a technical perspective or a content perspective.
From a technical perspective, I want Firefox to remember the searches I type in the URL bar but not anything I type into a box on a web page. This is a clear, easy-to-understand, easy-to-implement distinction.
The biggest UX reason why I want this is because I don't want annoying and distracting form-fill values to pop up whenever I go to enter anything into a text field.
in reply to Jonathan Kamens 86 47

@cibyr From a content perspective, generally speaking, the stuff I enter on forms is often significantly more private than the stuff I enter in searches in the URL bar, and I don't want Firefox to remember that stuff.
in reply to Jonathan Kamens 86 47

yeh I meant from a technical perspective. I use a lot of search boxes that are on web pages, not just the address bar.
in reply to cibyr

@cibyr 🤷 I would be fine with losing history in such search boxes as a side-effect of losing history from other form fields.
If I wanted history for any of them in particular, I could add them as search providers to Firefox, i.e., make it possible to search them in the URL bar and thus for Firefox to remember history for them.
Also, many of the sites with search boxes keep their own search history anyway.

RFK Jr. claiming that the investigation into him cutting off a whale's head... is about the "weaponization of the government." Can't a man cut off a whale's head in peace? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...


💥 Mark Carney sends 🇨🇦 a warning.
On cue, Poilievre calls him names.

“When politicians like #Poilievre claim our great democracies are broken, it's not because they want to FIX them. It's because they want a license to DEMOLISH.

It's a model that's been used time & time again: Create an external constraint to STARVE the beast of govt in a misguided view that SLASHING will lead to growth.

When Poilievre shouts 'axe the tax!', he's really whispering, 'can the plan'. Demolition is NOT a plan"
