Isn't the same as when RT was not allowed to broadcast in Europe after the war? I wonder why the news about Al Jazeera and Israel makes more splash than the RT and Russia news

It's a new one? I guess you are not the target audience of this Windows manager if you are not willing to give it a try and explore the features and the experience before rationalizing it's usefulness

rajishx | 1 year ago | on: Microsoft starts testing ads in the Windows 11 Start menu

I am pretty much os agnostics, i sure do enjoy linux because of being so customizable and i am quite good at it but i don't mind using OSX or others if there was..

but when it come to windows, i can't for my life of it using it.. it's very slugggish for me (compared to the arch distro i have on that same laptop) and it's unbearably intrusive (so many shortcuts are owned by the OS that i can't disable)

I use yadm with the default templating system which is based on awk...

https://yadm.io/docs/templates

i like yadm because it has simply no dependencies and can be installed literally anywhere on any archs (which is important to me)....

the yadm/awk templating system is good enough for me, it let you do some if host then output this or output that kind of things..... i never had a need for more.

rajishx | 2 years ago | on: The day I canceled my Spotify subscription

I moved to youtube music lately after being like 10 years i think on spotify (or since when it started in the UK)... the youtube premium + youtube music was too much of a deal for me to take...

I still use spotify sometime with an app that remove the ads... but I don't get the attraction anymore

rajishx | 2 years ago | on: Gnome Mess Is Not an Accident

never been happier in my life since i stopped caring about gnome, i wrote a couple of gnome extensions to make it usable (for me) and having to deal with all the breakages was really getting on my nerves.. switched to use i3 with a bunch of shell/python scripts and can go on with my life

rajishx | 2 years ago | on: Ubuntu 23.04 – 'Lunar Lobster'

I didn't mind the snaps since I always was able to disable them on every update, but somehow I started to get a lot of kernel freezes when running some IO heavy unit tests, it was getting really annoying. It may have been a btrfs bug or some other bug but I blamed ubuntu and installed archlinx instead.

Same btrfs/snapshotting configuration on arch and never had any issues so far...

rajishx | 3 years ago | on: Use GNU Emacs

Clearly you are not understanding what tabs in emacs are... it's pretty much a visual way to identify windows-configuration-to-register, and instead of doing C-x r w REG / C-x r j REG all the time you have a nice automatic way...

(please read the emacs manual the other post of this thread as posted)
