Dickbutt? Getting /r/HighQualityGifs/ vibes

btw, you wanted cue not queue, as in cue cards, that's my cue, cue the music.
Are you saying you think it's ridiculous to end support "already"?
I think it's likely that anyone still using 486s isn't updating software anyway, so it's unlikely to matter aside from niches like retro devices. Luckily, open source means that if there's a genuine desire there'll probably be a fork to provide it.
Nothing dates it more than the reference to Boing Boing.
btw, you've typoed the name: altwiki makes me think it's an alt-right version of Wikipedia.
I don't think people should downvote this Linux-related content that's in a Linux sub just because it's been posted on different servers in the Fediverse. People are too free with their downvotes.
Oof, that's embarrassing for a "hacker" distro. I guess they have too many red teamers and no blue.
But you're misrepresenting my argument.
Hardly, I'm directly addressing your statement that case insensitive is intuitive to users, grandmas or otherwise - I give examples where it's not initiative or obvious which filenames match. I didn't mention ease of implementation at all.
The principle of least surprise is an important UX consideration, and your idea of effectively introducing collation and localising which files conflict is just trading one problem for another set of problems and suprises (e.g. copying directories between drives with different settings).
Case insensitive is more intuitive
Are these the same filename?
- ΑΓΑΘΉ.txt
- αγαθή.txt
What about these?
- MY-NOTES-ON-Δ.txt
- μυ-notes-on-δ.txt
Databases have different case-insensitive collations - these control what letters are equivalent to each other. The fact that there's multiple options should tell you that there's no one-size-fits-all solution to case insensitivity.
This issue is only simple and obvious if you don't know enough about it.
It is a map, though, unlike OP's image!
Sad because the UK's quite small/unsunny and that means most other countries aren't doing much?
I thought that the UK was quite strong in wind, so it'd be interesting to see that charted.
I'm guessing by the recipes you mean Southern USA. I thought okra was from somewhere in Asia, but Wikipedia tells me it's from East Africa (Ethiopia, Eritrea and "East Sudan" - which is kinda funny as there's a Sudan and South Sudan).
