@arielmt i can't wait for mozilla to single-handedly lose the third browser war against nothing

Microsoft won the First Browser War, and the Web was worse for it.

Google won the Second Browser War, and the Web is worse for it.

There will be a third, because monopolies only stagnate, regress, and fester. But #Mozilla's chance to lead the way to a better World Wide Web has today gone from small to none.

I want to show off image scaling and non-scaling in my website template file, and I want to keep the bigots away from my project. Proudly queer wholesome pictures for my example images?

"Hello, We're Firefox, The Only Browser That Hasn't Hit Itself In The Dick With A Hammer. For years now, folks use us because of our un-hammered dick. Now, you may be wondering why today we've brought this hammer and pulled out our dick. Well I'm glad you asked--"

This is an amazing document.

SECOND ANNUAL VIDEO TERMINAL COMPARISON CHART

That said, I hope the game will get a more nuanced label than “new Jon Blow game”. While the creative vision is his, he didn’t make any of the original games and there are a lot of talented people at Thekla who also deserve credit.

These games are the starting point, but the bulk of the game is new puzzles combining mechanics from different games together. I haven’t played the game but I have faith it will be interesting, and the world can always do with more great puzzle games.

The original games at the core of Order of the Sinking Star are:
* The Heroes of Sokoban series: by Jonah Ostroff
* The Promesst series: by Sean Barrett
* Mirror Isles: by me
* Skipping Stones to Lonely Homes: by me

i find fixing the daily annoying Linux things more difficult than "developing software". if your app has a bug, you can set a breakpoint or whatever. i wish i could do that on my entire linux install. where is it getting the y value for the icon label height? oh it loads that from this config file. etc. but i don't even know what program is drawing the icons onto the screen! if i did, maybe i could check its open file handles or something. anyway, having to think like this at all? is not Normal

for example. on my linux laptop, i updated the OS. and it changed my icon spacing on my desktop so that half the labels under each icon are now cut off. this happened in January. i've spent nearly a year trying to fix it on and off, but i've got no idea where even to start. on windows there'd be a single tool called like "Windows Icons Fixer 1.04" or a registry key you needed to change. but on linux? how do i even know which piece of software draws the icons? positions them? it's not X11

as i'm hoping to move to linux fulltime in the next couple years, i'd like a flowchart of how to fix things on linux. i've never really figured it out. on windows it's like. go into control panel. go into device manager. go into program files and delete something. but on linux it's hard to even work out what software is running on your computer, let alone which thing is causing the issue, let alone how to fix it, let alone whether the fix will break again the next time you update some package
