Lol, from the Logo history

To PIMP?

Just like it took a decade for media and mainstream to pick up Reddit, it’ll take a decade for that to seep through.

They are for adult weirdos.

Where do I sign up?

IIRC Windows has an accessibility feature where the cursor jumps to the primary default action in opening dialogs.

Doing it screenshot based seems inefficient if y du could iterate through windows and controls.

Going beyond “that you remember”, Wikipedia has a list.

lol; Thanks Dave Kinne! /s

Note: This is from August. So it’s been a while since then.

even smaller than it already is (~100MB)

Will we call it WeirdPress?

Looks like they publish source on release as a source zip https://sourceforge.net/projects/hedgecam2/files/

Can you explain what you mean by free speech?

Is the free choice of content selection algorithm free speech? Isn’t the speech, the content, there either way, and could be selected through other alternative algorithms?

Is using deliberately engaging or addicting design free speech? Isn’t the speech, the content, there either way?

They’re describing one kind of free proprietary software and company setup. Which is valid. But the title claiming “[all] always ends in tears” isn’t supported by that.

My interpretation has always been that it loads [too] many files. File performance on many [small] files is noticeably, significantly slower on Windows than it is on Linux.

threats of commercial retaliation appear to have dampened the resolve

A few days ago I saw an interview with an EU official (I don’t remember who) which gave interesting insight.

They pointed out that they’re talking with China about these tariffs, that they’re taking a proof-based approach on them, reasoning and justifying with evidence of unfair subsidies, and that China has accepted such tariffs in the past for other things.

Collecting and discussing evidence obviously takes more time. But it defuses the “I put tariffs on you” -> “then I put tariffs on you” into a “these unjust subsidies were in place so we have to add these tariffs” -> “I don’t like it but I see”.

I wonder how those talks turned out, given that the tariffs have now been set. I guess I will hear from China if they object.

we’re currently at 96% completion for the 3.0 RC1 milestone, with 11 issues remaining.

for how long it has been in development, neither 96% nor 11 issues remaining give me confidence in short-term completion.

But given the wording around it, I guess it has to be not too far off - whatever that means. I’m not hopeful about anything, but looking forward to it. GIMP has been my main “heavy” image editing tool for a long time.

All features aside, I hope it will launch faster than previous versions.

What do you mean?

It has buttons on both sides.

Strawberry

Strawberry is a music player and music collection organizer. It is a fork of Clementine released in 2018 aimed at music collectors and audiophiles.

IIRC I was not satisfied with the UI, so it didn’t become my main player. But maybe that’s different for you.

The letter alleged that “your blatant and widespread unlicensed use of our Client’s trademarks has infringed our Client’s rights and confused consumers into believing, falsely, that WP Engine is authorized, endorsed, or sponsored by, or otherwise affiliated or associated with, our Client.”

If the trademark is indeed on the wordpress.org foundation and not the wordpress.com company, I didn’t think that’s a fair argument.

When I think Wordpress I think the software, not their hosting or company. Such an argument would only work if the exclusive trademark licensing were actually exclusively used, and not in addition to the very vast Wordpress [software] ecosystem.

WPEngine using the Wordpress trademark makes me think they’re using Wordpress. Not that they are affiliated with Wordpress.com (or automattic that runs it).

Their about us pages:

• https://automattic.com/about/
• https://wpengine.com/about-us/

I don’t think either is a cancer to the FOSS Wordpress ecosystem. Both seem to give back.
