Kock and Kall Korture

KDE is not an abbreviation, and not in the same way than XNA is not an abbreviation. Originally it was the Kool Desktop Environment which was quickly dropped not for the obvious KDE Desktop Environment but K Desktop Environment, which kinda makes sense given that KDE replaces 'c’s with ‘k’ all over the place – such as, to wit, its name as it’s a reference to CDE. Nowadays it’s plain KDE though.

Make sure you’ve installed Flatseal from the DisKover Store

KDE Komedy Klassic? That’s not good…

Always has been

GNU Nominal Universalism

That’s old GNUs

Yeah it’s weird how computers are still so grounded in weirdo cultures but because everyone has to use them and they’re the foundation of modern society and economy these people often run into something they aren’t prepared to deal with whether it’s copy left and the open source movement or it’s terminology and naming with an irreverent flair.

This is also how you wind up with me casually talking about linux and home servers with a bunch of anarchists as we fix up old bikes while I know engineers and tech chasers who are scared of such things.

wait until part 2 of git class where they use the MASTER branch

I heard that Linus named it git because he is one.

Embarrassing for who?

They were already assimilated at that point, changing their culture would be futile.

But we must try anyway.

Really, huh, that’s … kinda nice to know? (In the ‘world is the tiniest bit better than I knew’ way)

I have enjoyed various creepy Clippy art/mini lore.
It’s basically an SCP thing.

I did too, but I was a child and in retrospect I feel like that made me the target audience.

Like I get that Microsoft has for a long time been trying to make tech and computers feel non threatening. And clippy feels like a reasonable attempt especially within the program it was created for Microsoft Bob which was something I can totally see a world in which it had been popular

Just install vigor.

I’m glad someone did.

NAHHHH, and here i was thinking that “internet bot” just means a person spreading obvious propaganda on the internet.

update: The rest of this guys comments are the exact same kind of garbage. although this one was admittedly kinda funny:

Corporations are an outdated means of organizing industry. While they can innovate upon existing technology, invention and discovery are avoided, as the length and uncertainties in such undertaking can eat into shareholder returns. While there are exceptions, this selective pressure is seldom overcome. This competitive evolutionary model forces participant companies into a race to the bottom. Corners are cut, labor stiffed, and customers squeezed in order to draw greater and greater profits – or else run the risk of loosing out to more ruthless competition.

In the same way large firms were able to stabilize disruptions in the supply chain through vertical and horizontal integration (thus outliving smaller, regionally managed businesses), mixed economies stabilize the shocks and disruptions of large firms, with the added benefit of re-focusing the output of industry to common goals, rather than to enrichment of a narrow few.

Overall, it is essential to see corporations as a phase in the conscious and unconscious evolution of human endeavor - a tool in the industrialized toolbox and not an end goal unto itself. It’s also important to learn to write for yourself, or you’ll be clowned on quite easily.

Umm…is this a joke?

corporate governance structures are anti-democratic by nature. framing corporate capture of innovation, economic opportunity, scientific research, and our most critical services as a positive thing is grotesque. nobody should own lifesaving research. nobody should own our houses, our hospitals, our livelihoods and our parks, corporations shouldn’t be able to decide what causes are worthy, what challenges can be addressed. we should. the people who do the work, who make the products, who do the labor that serves others, not unaccountable boards of ultra-wealthy assholes who think they get to make our decisions for us, and are using that power to actively kill the fucking planet.

if you wanna lick the boot, have fun with that corpo.

Corporations can do all of those things while also operating as a non profit

Ok chatGPT

There’s admittedly some overlap

I kinda fall into the DnD category but I’m Asexual

Don’t look that up on LemmyNSFW.com

And Trojitá (the email client) was written by a Czech. It means “triple” in Czech, and Czech Republic is famous for porn.

SEXO

I’ve been there, at work no less

it’s giving vaporeon vibes too

It’s a recursive acronym so it could expand indefinitely into GNUNUNUNU…TKIMP, similarly to wineineineine… or Benoît Benoît … B. … Mandelbrot Mandelbrot. Like a ZIP bomb, never try to expand it fully.

I guess she got used to the sight of drawn animals in gimp suit on my screen by that time

Black brown red orange yellow green blue violet gray white

I have a passing familiarity with the colors and that just helped me list them out… now I feel gross

Most of them are a stretch but they do! Hump is for collision detection, Lovetoys is helper functions, I believe Love Bone is an animation system, etc.
