  • For file save/send dialogs, just drag/drop from nemo/nautilus to the file dialog instead of using the annoying navigation in the file dialog itself.
  • In cinnamon, use win-l,r,u,d to snap. In succession will go from full width/height to a corner. Reverse or drag the window to go back to original size. This gives you nice tiling with the flexibility of traditional window management as well.
  • for a terminal ctl-alt-t
  • alt-f2 to execute a command with history

Used to. Prefer Aquamail. I'm a thunderbird user on my workstation though. The latest changes were controversial, but it's fine once you enable the system title bar and hide the menu bar.

Squirrel nut butter or mad alchemy chamois cream. Or make your own with Shea butter.

I've been using Linux as my personal and professional workstation since the 90s. I get things done. The OS does what I tell it to do without trying to sell me things or throw toolbar nonsense and garbage inconsistent UIs in my face.

4 days. 6 hour day is full time. 24 hour work week is where we should be.

I had 2 cats. That was a good number of cats. Then a stray put 5 kittens under my garage. I found a home for 2. I now have 5 cats. 5 cats is too many cats.

Worse, they do that crap for my business account. Great for the vpn to the office.

10.3 beta seems to fix it.

Patents should simply be a monopoly on an idea for enough time to gather resources to develop that idea's prototype. I know it doesn't work that way, but it should. They really should be there for small inventors, not giant corps who have plenty of resources, but I digress.

But software itself can implement that prototype without having to build anything. Your ideas can be created directly. We don't patent math and we don't patent poetry or even poetic writing structures.

Software and business method patents are utter bullshit.

Fuck software patents and business method patents. Patent the machine. Copyright the instructions to tell the machine what to do if you must.

Yes please. None of those have anything to do with technology. I want to see some PM-esque posts in here.
