I tried to search hamburger code on the web. It gave me Roblox and a bunch of CSS hamburger menus.

Sorry to ask, but what are these hamburgers you speak of?

I used to call it office.com.. Teams is the worst offender there. Even a website with a cryptominer on it runs faster than that junk.

Improving documentation is an often underrated contribution.

Have you read man pages by the same author as the program itself? When you can tell before looking up the name, there's a needed and worthy contribution waiting to happen.

Interesting. I haven't ever seen a Linux fork change the actual name before. Doing so while maintaining BC is quite a challenge.

I'd imagine me on a computer in the future:

    $ uname -a

    Microborg MCS+ (Windows 18, like Linux) Azure 99.99.99

Thanks, looks cool. XFCE is an excellent choice. It's also my daily driver.

Could you shed light on ab actual use case for this? I think I'm not seeing the elephant in the room here. Personally, quick desktop VMs would be perfect for remote work, kiosks, gui integration tests, and various showcases.

What am I missing here?

Y'know, I only figured this after reading myself back the next day.

Sorry.

Of course anything you make yourself is yours. I'm not sure how the license can confuse anyone into thinking it wouldn't be. It likely wouldn't fly with the law anyway. Unless it was all saas.

There's an obscured close button in the top right corner. If you want to skip the welcome dialog just click that.

The second time it appears, you can uncheck "Show this every time" in the lower left corner and then click "New Document".

...or you could click Save on the first dialog and then click " Thanks!". You'll get the same dialog as above when you'd have closed it with the button in the corner.

Thank you. This is the first time I've heard of the Graphite editor.

I think it could benefit from availability in package reposirories and looking at the license, it appears the program itself is free under the Apache license but the artwork is non-free. It cannot be modified and commercial use is prohibited.

When combined, Graphite as a whole is non-free so I won't be compiling this until the artwork is gone. I'll look into providing some dummy files and see where it goes.

The other packing problem is that there's already a server monitoring program also named Graphite. But given the above, a change of name and new icons would solve both problems.

The BIOS on an IBM PC was cloned by Compaq iirc. Back in the day it was normal for software (including OS kernels) to call into BIOS ROMs because storage was limited.

This was in a different era where most PCs weren't networked.

x86_64 has moved to UEFI and SecureBoot since, but is still mostly expected to boot any live distro you'd like. Replacing x86 could drastically reduce the chances of replacing non-free vendor software with free software.
