The userbase and lack of content curation/moderation has everything to do with that. The Chinese version gets a whallop of censorship as well, but yeah, their motivation to help other countries educate the young or avoid brain-rot is well in the negatives.

I mean, if TikTok US were more like TikTok China, with emphasis on educational content, there would never have been a problem.

On-line surveys have always had this problem with bots and people with agendas. Its sad and comical they are pretending this is something new.

Where does this imply that I downvoted anything for the reasons you mentioned? There were maybe five or six comments prior to my own, and I downvoted all of them besides OPs(which I did upvote, tyvm - funny how that didn’t work out to you noticing).

Less spammy than “trying to set the record straight” by correcting them all, nevermind that, as I stated, I don’t have a better solution anyways, but again, yes, I also up-voted the one-or-two comments that had anything to do with OPs problem, both clarifications by OP themselves.

I’ve also up-voted other comments since, but there have been none talking about Ribbons and Tabs since, at least. Almost like what visibility my own comment got served its purpose.

Things don’t have to be positive to work. Sometimes Loud Garbage can slow the buildup of even-more-useless-if-well-meaning garbage. Well-intentioned, useless, basically-un-true-in-context things only pass one of Socrates criteria, btw.

Thus, that last line in my comment. My frustration in this case is just sooo much more to do with the issue than with comments.

Partially implimented system theme. Comments: oP MuSt wAnT It tO LoOk lIkE MiCrOsOfT!

The only one who so-far realized the theming is the problem suggested a quick fix that will likely leave this issue cropping up again in other applications.

Me: down-votes comments because I WANT there to be a better answer, not because I know one. Happy Monday, people!

Same here, including when I try to search for it by name. OTOH, when I open the link in a browser instead of the f-droid app, I get a good page on f-droid.org

Maybe we need to sync the repositories?

Sure, if that’s your level of thought and reading comprehension, let’s say you’ve got it. Is it really so hard to understand the notion that what works for you doesn’t work for me, but I’m okay with you doing whatever?

Keep practicing, kid.

That 800k number is the saddest I’ve felt since the morning of the 5th. Wtf?

Your life isn’t my life, and restoring backups is no less a hassle just for having them(personally, I backup files, and either fix what I break or do a clean install). Auto-complete also makes me lose my train of thought, but if its helpful to you, enjoy.

Reason’s I never use auto-complete in the terminal. Sadly, that’s sometimes not enough.

No one should be basing their “how to do it right” on a single forum comment. Talk about scope-creep for the offering of advice.

“… and God said, let us make man in our own image.”

Even back when I was in the laptop-repair game, this is the kinda stuff people would expect me to know about their stuff that I hated. I saw too many features come and go over the years to keep track of even half of it on behalf of others.

Depends on the iGPU, but this being a damn near brand-new laptop, I’m sure you’re right.

Maybe if it allowed you to switch to integrated graphics versus discrete, putting the GPU to sleep.

For just browsing, even integrated graphics has been plenty since the beginning of the internet, maybe with some exceptions when Flash gaming reached its pinnacle.

The one usually works best with the other, though.

EDIT: nm, I see what you were getting at in their comment now. They also meant downscaling the Text/UI, not upscaling.

The only reason I went to a WiFi 6 Mesh setup is coverage and consistency. Speed was never an issue in over a decade, except for with (later…)Chromecasts and/or FireTV sticks.

Yeah … it wasn’t your site, it was my criteria and the ads changing just enough to be confused for results.

She’s an indisputable beaut, now that I get how it works.

Doesn’t work for me on Firefox mobile. Neither “mobile” site or Desktop versions. Hitting “Next/Enter” on my keyboard does nothing, there is no Submit button that I can see, and refreshing the page just resets all fields to defaults.

I don’t want an Intel with 4gb RAM and a 256GB spinning drive, and OS included? No dice, that’s what I’m offered. Without being able to filter results, its just another craigslist/amazon/newegg front-end … a less useful one.

EDIT: Turns out there are zero fanless non-Intel, 16+GB RAM, 1024+GB SSD/eMMC offerings with USB-C to list. Strange no-one is packaging an OrangePi 5 Plus like so, but I haven’t seen a fanless heat-sink sufficient to make that a good idea anyways.

I had tweaked some of the options, but without clearing either-or-both of those last two, especially “fan-less”, all I was getting was the five sponsored “results” the top, which changed just enough to make it seem like that’s all the results I could get.
