I’d rather he didn’t do that either, any more

Let him stay in prison

I seem to remember the Russians got stuck in mud and ran out of fuel pretty swifty I guess

Also the Russian invasion was anything but swift!

Yes I’m choosing Plasma - it’s actually good out of the box and then can be made better!

I’ve seen enough of it to know I don’t like it for pretty much the same reasons

Wouldn’t be an unreasonable point if they were not so god damned fuck-ugly!

Funko should shut down out of embarrassment. Not about this specifically, just because of their entire product line

KDE works out of the box but can be customised, unlike gnome, which if it’s not how you want to use it does not work out of the box and there’s nothing you can do about it

I didn’t have much respect for MAD magazine to start with, always seemed to be generic boomer humour from what I’ve seen.

Get them out and play with them!

I’ve always hated funkopops, they’re ugly and the very epitome of the enshitification and commercialisation of geek culture. This does nothing to change my mind

Unlike gnome, kde can be configured to look and act completely different so you should be fine

I mean exactly what I say. Yes you can select other images but they’re remixes or spins or alternative versions, the “main” version is usually gnome. And you know it!

KDE is not less consistent, it’s just more configurable. Sorry, actually configurable. Gnome basically says “Do it our way or not at all… okay maybe you can change some colours if you must”, which is much more of a Windows (and especially MacOS) attitude than KDE. The default layout of kde is bit more windows like (but less rubbish) but far more configurable. As to hacked together… have you seen gnome’s file dialogues???

Not sure what Pantheon DE is. Does Temple OS use it?

I don’t actually care about gnome, so much as about gnome being the default for most distros when kde is just better at everything a de and a unix-like system should do. Gnome is just… restrictive. Do it their way or you can;t do much of anything. And most annoyingly, the file dialogues are shite!

Is it up to the level of quality and features of KDE yet?

Why do the Russians think they need a buffer between themselves and NATO anyway? Are they planning on doing things that would make them seem like a threat to NATO, and don’t believe NATO have supersonic planes or something?
