A channel's viewer was kind enough to send me an image to give a shot to #GNOME 1, and I decided to take a look at that version I had never used.

And, well, GNOME really lost a LOT of stuff in the transition from GNOME 1, to 2 and then to GNOME 3...

It's ridiculous that in order to get the functionality that G1 had in G3, a bunch if extensions are needed. A step backward for sure.
in reply to Nick @ The Linux Experiment

Don't get me wrong; the idea of something like the GNOME Shell is very nice, but some of the developers lack of willingness to work with other Linux projects or even change things that users need to make GNOME work for them when GNOME is the ONLY officially supported option on RHEL, SLED, and Ubuntu, is very sus.

Thanks to @AlainQueffelec our community-maintained list of diamond open access (free to read, free to publish) #archaeology journals now has more than 80 entries:

So if you're an archaeologist and you're still putting your work behind paywalls or paying outrageous APCs to corporate publishers, you can't say it's because you don't have options!

I finally did it. The meaningless goal of surviving 28 days without a single death in #Valheim

@skyfire747 @sirmikester It's actually a thing you can do. You not only die, but your ship and everything you were carrying is lost forever. It looks cool though.
in reply to Si Fuller

don't think I will do it then...

I prefer to stay alive in Valheim.

I have been watching someone on YT who flew off the edge of the world and lived.

Zimbabwe Secures Belarus Deal to Revamp Health Sector, Boosts Economic Revival Efforts – The Zimbabwe Mail byteseu.com/1012947/ #Belarus


15 May is Nakba Memorial Day (ذكرى النكبة, Dhikra an-Nakba, 'Memory of the Catastrophe'). It is the day of commemoration for the Nakba, also known as the Palestinian Catastrophe, which comprised the destruction of Palestinian society and homeland in 1948, and the permanent displacement of a majority of the Palestinian people.

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich called for the destruction of the Palestinian villages of Broqin and Kafr Deek in the northern West Bank, “like Shujaiya and Tel Sultan in Gaza,” following the killing of an Israeli settler in a shooting.

Smotrich said, “Just like we destroyed Rafah, Khan Yunis, and Gaza, we must destroy” what he claimed are “terrorist nests in Judea and Samaria” (the biblical term for the West Bank).

Being a "Highly Cited Researcher" has gone from a sign of having impact as a researcher to a potential indicator of misconduct.

"Manipulations have been so obvious and large that, in 2024, over 2,000 researchers were removed from a HCR list containing some 6,600 names." - Lauranne Chaignon

good.

Doing good, robust research is about doing good, robust research. Good research isn't necessarily identified by a high number of citations 🤷‍♂️



An Israeli settler on Thursday was pronounced dead from wounds she sustained in a shooting attack in the northern occupied West Bank.

Israeli public broadcaster KAN said an Israeli settler died from serious injuries she sustained in the Wednesday evening attack.

Hardliner Bezalel Smotrich, Israel's finance minister, urged the decimation of Palestinian villages near the area of the incident in revenge for the attack.
