I have trouble with using tone in my words but not interpreting tone from others’ words. Weird, isn’t it?

To me, the main selling point of Waterfox is that it includes a lot of useful userChrome.css toggles. For example, disabling the tab bar and hiding sidebar headers for use with TreeStyleTab.
Waterfox also does disable telemetry by default through using the https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox config

the classics have got Saving Private Ryan, Nolan’s got Dunkirk, Best Cinematography’s got 1917, Ghibli’s got Grave of the Fireflies (released same day as Totoro even)…
for anti-war that’s not depressing, there’s also AFAIK the over-the-top Helldivers
for things that feel “clean” instead of bloody there’s the elegant video game Nier: Automata

I consider multitasking a discrete part of the OS, not Liquid Glass. i do have some thoughts on it though
for what it’s worth there are gestures they don’t tell you that make the multitasking so much easier: toggle maximization by tapping the top of the window, and then as they mention you can snap it to either side by smashing the window in a direction
also they added back drag and drop to Split View in iPadOS 26.2. after three months they finally have a stable release of this multitasking thing
I have found multitasking useful especially with stage manager, but I completely understand those who don’t like it and just want an option to restore the old multitasking. I also miss Quick Notes (workaround through a shortcut button just isn’t the same)

Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Jordanlund removing links for being hosted on Substack again
6·14 days agoi’ve never seen a meta thread in that commag. i suspect that Jordanl enforces the “post news articles only” rule quite well. here’s where it’s been discussed:

https://lemmy.world/comment/14172977
Jordanl simply repeats the same argument about X and disengages when people ask him to respond to the well-known refutation
i find it great on the iphone too, especially with the new swipe interaction to go between tabs (not the safari kind; like in the app store swiping from today to apps). the cornering of buttons works wonders. plus i personally dig the aesthetic though i understand a ton of people don’t

Linux@programming.dev•GNOME and Mozilla Discuss Proposal to Disable Middle Mouse Paste on Linux
2·15 days agoah i have had that happen before lol. it does copy spaces but it doesn’t overwrite your main clipboard so i don’t have qualms about it. every app you’d expect to support middle-mouse drag except notepad/gedit/kwrite/etc supports it instead of pasting unless you use chromium without the relevant extension or remain static over a textbox.
it did make things feel better and easier-to-interact though … on the touchscreen ipad. it looks like hell on macbook
