  • I was curious about what the Japanese side’s take on Trump’s remark would be, so I found this news report from a Japanese outlet:

    Try translating the comments by yourself. You’d find that most people are blaming the Japanese reporter who asked “why didn’t you notify us before attacking Iran.” They say that of course they wouldn’t tell us (Japanese) about a surprise attack beforehand and that this question is stupid and rude.

    Personally though I think this remark is rude regardless of what questions were asked. Also I think that the question itself may be stupid but isn’t rude.

    I’m pretty sure you can live without the minimize button. I’ve used Gnome for 3 years and I’ve never felt the need to minimize a window. Even now after I switched to KDE Plasma a few days ago, I still don’t minimize windows.


  • It’s like how most people call moving a file into the trash can “deleting.” It is deleted (in a sense), but you can still recover it if you want before the trash can gets emptied.

    Or like how even you can actually delet a file from the disk but still be able to recover it before the disk space is overwritten by other files. I’m not saying that this is what Google does when you recover a freshly deleted account (most likely not), but what I’m trying to say with these two examples is that being able to be recovered is not a contradiction with having been deleted

    Also I don’t get why you take problem with this. It’s not like it’s another loop to jump through to get to delete the account?

    I’ve actually been using Proton (on the free plan) for a couple of years before going to Tuta on their paid plan. I can say that the UI of Proton feels much better.

    • The search in Tuta’s inbox often gives no result despite me searching exactly what’s in the subject line
    • The custom notification selector in Tuta Calendar sucks
    • Tuta Calendar feels sluggish
    • You can’t select whether to send a message as plain text or as HTML in the message composer?? Why do you have to go into the preference page to change this??
    • When you open a message in Tuta Mail, it often fails loading the message and I have to press Retry multiple times for it to load the message properly

    As far as I remember, none of these were problems back when I used Proton.







  • I’m using openSUSE Tumbleweed with Gnome as of now, but plan on switching to Fedora on my next laptop. I would continue using Tumbleweed if it were not for that every 5 system updates (zypper dup) or so Konsole and some 20 other related k-packages gets automatically installed for some reason. This started happening like 1 year ago and the only solutions I were able to find were just to keep removing (zypper rm -u) it every time or just lock (zypper addlock) it.
