The clickbait works… what does this article claim is one of the most annoying things? I must know!

Ah yes, of course

Forgive my ignorance, but what is that? A goat? What’s the homonym?

If it’s a visual novel or heavily menu- or dialog-based, there really isn’t anything more to show usually.

isn’t the last line 6 syllables? “Ruins” is two.

My bet is on Musk taking Trump’s place.

As I wrote that comment I wondered: “does Windows still have that option in the context menu?” I’m rarely on Windows so can’t quickly check.

My memory says that it’s even an option when right-clicking an image on the web. I decided to ignore that memory - surely that can’t still be a thing! …Right?

Edit: oh crap, it’s actually an option on Firefox on Linux Mint. Damn, that’s crazy. Then it’s gotta be there on Windows too. Much easier to imagine it happening accidentally on the web than an image file on PC.

Nearly all existing media (radio, songs, TV, movies, YouTube videos, …) will eventually lose its appeal, as (for new born people at least) it will effectively be in a foreign language, that uses a completely separate mode of communication. You can’t share Back to the Future with anyone new anymore.

But all of Star Wars gets a remaster with a CGI light-speech dub.

Huh. I think it was just the web version of Lemmy. Weird choice by the Lemmy devs.

It sounds far more likely to me that she right-clicked on some image file and picked “Set as desktop background”.

Correct - even if you include the (necessary) option of making up your own answer. If you pick a percentage at random, you have a 0% chance of picking 0%.

You had to show off, huh

I’m not sure that it is Cinnamon, but Cinnamon does let you put things in the middle of a panel, so it’s pretty easy to make something similar to that.

If the installation set up updates using apt, even if it uses a separate repository server, then Update Manager should still update them. I have personally seen updates from third-party sources show up in Update Manager. For example, I’ve installed Proton VPN using these instructions and it does receive updates using Software Manager.

If you installed Mullvad using the “Ubuntu/Debian” instructions here, then I think it should get updates through Software Manager, but I haven’t tried this browser myself.

For any other software, it depends on how it’s distributed.

The proposed time zone is to drift about 1 second every 50 years. I also suspect it wouldn’t really be a time zone in the same sense as the time zones we know - it would just be a standardised calibration reference. Dates and times expressed in “moon time” would probably just be some leap second off of a known Earth time zone, and because it’s mere seconds over centuries, I think the only use of this time zone is to calculate ultra-precise time diffs between two earth datetimes when the observer is on the moon. At least, that’s how I interpret the articles I can find about it.
