It wouldn't be so bad if they could only cuddle you to death. Still not great, but better...

Does this have any impact on the future viability of Hyprland as a project? Should it affect (on a technical level) whether users should start using Hyprland if they don't already?

I literally installed it for the first time yesterday to take a look, but don't want to get invested in something that may fizzle out...

Just a gentle reminder that there are very many more Christians in the world that aren't American and certainly don't support Trump. Or even care that much about American politics.

Am I right in thinking this only applies to US users?

The most consistent thing about English is how inconsistent it is!

Which is to be expected when you have a Germanic language that is so heavily influenced by Latin languages.

Snape was never a good guy though. Very brave, yes and he had some good qualities. He was also vindictive and a bully - willing to put his petty dislikes above the quality of his teaching.

This is probably a result of the Hebrew literary practice of narrating a story once in poetic language and then again in prose. So it's the same man and woman being created, just retold in a different style.

Minor point, but Wales isn't in the EU.

Unless you're happy with a very mediocre phone - please don't. I very much applaud the idea behind fairphone, but the years I had my fairphone 3 were full of frustration.

As a native English speaker who'd never heard of this word - TIL x2

I'm looking for recommendations for games to get for my retroid picket 3. I like platfirmers, metroidvania, turn based games and driving games.

Any suggestions gratefully received!

Thanks in advance.

Edit: thanks for all the replies - so many more than I expected! Plenty for me to take a look at. :-)

I'm looking for recommendations for a dotfile manager - there are so many out there I've got a bit of options paralysis!

I'd like a system that can backup all my dotfiles - with version management - and, if I nuked my home directory, could restore them all for me with a simple command.

Thanks in advance for you suggestions!

It took my sleep deprived brain far too long (less than a second, but still) to realise this wasn't a genuine name change.

Any kind of snobbery/looking down on people - especially if it's based on income or occupation.
