Today I discovered the "ArcMenu" extension for Gnome Shell that lets you customize an applications menu for Gnome. Besides changing the look, each style has its own subset of customizations and settings.

The panel being on bottom is a separate extension called "Dash to Panel".

I’m on the verge of quitting everything. I’ve been crying all day. I’m tired of putting up a candid face when social media is scr*wing over trans creators or only showing my art to anti-trans suicide-baiters. Even though this has been my most productive…



We have been on boarding many people to #XMPP using #Quicksy and #Prav apps.

Most people happily join but some people complaint their username is their phone number and if they forget to set a nickname, their phone number becomes public if they join any public groups.

We like the auto discovery of contacts using phone number.

So in the spirit of #FreeSoftware,

"The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish."

We are going to raise the funds and hire a programmer to develop this feature for us (we have already talked to developers and about to sign a contract).





Seen in a work slack,was news that I fear will turn terrible in a few years.

Nature-Springer had an IPO.

Though in theory they were already owned by a private capital fund, so they've already been at risk for enshittificatin.

@Alexander Goeres Ich finde vor allem das dritte Bild beeindruckend. Von den Tischmanieren kann sich mancher etwas abgucken.

Poor David Sherrington and Scott Kirkpatrick 😮 .

@maxpool - they can only give a Nobel for one topic to 3 people. Which 3 would you choose?

For the Higgs mechanism, Peter Higgs and François Englert won but the obvious candidates were from 3 teams: Robert Brout and François Englert; Gerald Guralnik, Carl Richard Hagen and Tom Kibble, and Peter Higgs. And the idea was developed earlier in a nonrelativistic context (condensed matter physics) by Phillip Anderson. So I figure it's always just the luck of the draw.

in reply to John Carlos Baez

I would exclude Sherrington because he is the only physicist. Physicists have received a disproportionately large percentage of Nobel Prizes in Physics.

ps. On serious note, Scott Kirkpatrick's "Optimization by simulated annealing" (1983) with Gelatt and Vecchi is another great physics inspired algorithm. dcs.gla.ac.uk/~pat/ads2/java/T…

So it looks like my recording of my run actually worked. I've never really done any screen recording before so the quality is pretty bad. I didn't edit it and you can see some of my desktop and whatnot behind it. Neat to have it recorded, though.
