I mean, it's pretty commonly said, especially in a colloquial setting. More people than not probably use it.

But there is a convention that the "and" should be adhered to when a decimal is present; that said, – like many grammar rules – this isn't far from universally followed.

Mmm; that's fair. The husband had an XPS 13 (not sure if that old, though; it was the one where you could get the cover in Rose Gold) but they only use Windows so I can't say. I've mostly installed Linux (for myself) on Latitudes.

Oh, for sure; it is definitely impressive. I dunno if you already know (so, basically, I apologize if so!) but part of how Apple's able to pull that off is they manufacturer their own hardware and only install to it; so OS X's optimized to the hardware in a way Windows and Linux can't be (since they're designed to run on any hardware). I'm sure that's not all of it but it's part of it.

Ah; a woman of culture.

Maybe the brand? I generally use HP and Dell (and Debian/Ubuntu) and, while always bracing for something not to work, have generally not run into any issues.

Incidentally, Christine Webber (who probably knows a bit about the subject) was going over how decentralized BlueSky really is or not (spoiler, it's not): https://social.coop/@cwebber/113527462572885698

The Sword in the Stone by T. H. White has always been a favorite of mine.

See, my problem is that it's never 2 minutes.

I tell myself it is; I truly think it is. A half hour later…

…but did it not happen via purpose?

Honestly, all of the examples in your link sort of has me feeling it; it's certainly not any less consistent.

https://furilabs.com/ may be of interest.

As I understand it, they've made a lot of their own improvements that improve the user experience.

That's…honestly a fair point; a good chunk of why I never bothered with TikTok is it has some of the worst UX I've ever experienced in my life.

Because of the conduction?

So I'd originaly created this because I looked for a Guix sublemmy and hadn't found one.

Turns out, I just hadn't looked hard enough. Turns out that there's a Guix sublemmy at lemmy.ml (https://lemmy.ml/c/guix) and already relatively active.

I don't think it makes sense to fragment things (especially when Guix is pretty small, as it currently is) so I'll probably delete this one in a week or two.

Just wanted to give a heads up.

 

NonGuix is holding a poll for a logo for themselves; the design has already been voted on but now a color for the design is being decided.

There are 4 colors being chosen from (red, blue, green, and purple) and voting will end Sept. 15^th^.

 

Per the original toot:
