The open alternatives don’t have particularly good UIs which was a massive perk of GitKraken.

These days I rely heavily on the Git UI within jetbrains various IDEs. If you’re working on open source projects then you can get a free license. Or they do educational discounts. If you’re using it commercially then it’s going to be roughly the same price as for Kraken but you get a best in class IDE included…

I usually wrap my USBs in a few layers of tape to reduce the leakage

The ability to prioritise and pin results from different sites is what won me over. Pinning stackoverflow helps filter a lot of junk when resolving programing issues, and when working with geometry I’ve pinned or prioritised a few different resources that better explain the mathematics

Kagi is pretty decent. It’s worth supporting else the space will continue to be dominated by advertising monopolies.

I went to school in a rather rural part of the country. One of my school friends was a tad concerned when he came across a folder named “Rape Photos” on his dad’s computer.

Thankfully it was just a record of their field crop

If you only shower once a month I don’t understand why I you’d need to wash the towel any more regularly?

I’m not against criticism, certainly the number of downvotes suggests I phrased it poorly or should have kept my views to myself.

I tried to present my views in a neutral manner without accusation. I used the term reflect because as you state I have no idea of the user’s situation so it’s for them to reflect.

I used a separate paragraph for the reference to hygiene in order to make a distinction between what I did and did not know. What I had hoped to raise was the distinction between hygiene and just applying masking products. But I didn’t know how to communicate that without being more specific.

I apologise if I caused offense. None was intended. I’m some random person online, my views are my own, if I have caused offense I hope that can be easily dismissed as just another provocative voice online.

Semi colons wouldn’t be valid in file names so they’re ignored so there’s no reason to include hyphens either

It’s not just cultural in terms of nations it’s also dependent on the type of work. You’re going to be critical of a taxi driver stinking of BO when he sits in an air conditioned cab all day, but not somebody doing physical labour in the open air

Dude… Maybe re read what you wrote and reflect on it?

There’s a cliche of Internet folk with poor hygiene and it’s something that should be addressed but it can be awkward for people to bring it up.

Bills?! Bills?! How very dare you suggest that people require compensation for their work.

You’re in a Linux community here. Open Source development is about freedom. All work should be made freely available for users and corporations to enjoy as they wish without having to consider such frivolities of whether anyone should be compensated.

The fact your comment here is at -1 really underlines the immaturity of many users.

I can understand your previous comment getting downvoted because it was a little inflammatory, but your statement here is entirely factual with a neutral tone. So there’s really no reason to disagree with it, let alone pepper it with downvotes.

I do understand - but as a society we’re working to remove unnecessary gendered terms from our language. I believe in doing similar with religious terms.

Language is important. If we’re thanking a deity for the work of government it’s both minimalising the work of elected representatives and exclusionary to other cultures.

god has nothing to do with it

People desperately trying to avoid snaps by any means possible?

There is that one episode where they go into intense detail about how the Internet functions. They even show it!

The cynic in me immediately thinks this is so Facebook can further connect your activity to sell

Does it still revolve around building roads or can cities finally thrive with alternative transport?

A whitelist defeats the decentralisation and openness of a defederated system.

I think you’re mistaken in your assumption it would be easy to identify malicious instances. Bots are notoriously difficult to fight, every time you block one method another workaround will appear.

So, I take it your answer is no?
