“You’re hurting her,” a woman yelled.

What should we do with people like this?

Exactly.

Too little, too late, *nix filesystem directory structure is a legacy mess and plenty program not respecting the xdg spec, so the poor HaikuPorters needs to patch everything to stop littering the $HOME folder.

I don't care if there any pre-defined quicklaunch icons on the starting page in your browser after install, but could you stop adding/readding unwanted elements to it? I don't have facebook, why on earth are you adding it back after every update? Is this normal? What would you think if i would always mess with your stuff without asking just because i can? No, you aren't supposed to mess with my stuff, so please leave my startpage alone.

I am not searching for workarounds, i can always put the browser onto RO disk or use an own, handcrafted html startpage, but do i really have to use workarounds just to be able to use your product without frustration? What about not using your product at all?

(Image is just for reference to know what i meant.)

The ideals of Haiku are great but is anyone using it consistently? If they are what workflows benefit from Haiku's feature set?

I do, but maybe i am not the best everyday example with my ~20 years user experiences with BeOS and Haiku and do development/porting for Haiku. I use on a dedicated Haiku laptop and planing to switch to Haiku on my main system too, the only roadblock is the external-display support. After it gets enabled (i have intel based system) i will switch completely.

I'm curious if anyone is actually using Haiku features in some non-trivial way, e.g.

All the files coming from packages have an own attribute which identifies the parent package, so it is extremely easy to find from which package the questioned file comes from. For example.

I have to frequently search for existing recipes, i use bash to craft me a search query. I definetely could use `find` instead.

I like that i have no email client, so if i need to search for a mail on a busy covered desktop i don't have to hunt for the mail-client icon on the taskbar i just click on the desktop where it visible between all the windows, Alt-F > type what i want > ENTER.

I really like the virtual-desktop handling, S&T, etc., so long story short: i like so how it is.

I am waiting for the next big thing, where the 3rdparty programs comes as a virtual machine image with a complete OS in it, with own kernel for maximal platform-independency.

audio through HDMI, and bluetooth didn't find my mouse

Both unsupported.

WebPositive is included.

mc is disgusting.

Reasoning that RSS have less clutter.

So the question is dear author: how much did Feedly paid for you?

Tastelessly overdone HDR is ____.

Example site ( https://bansal.io/pattern-css ) misrendered in Vivaldi, which brings me back PTSD grade memories about the browser war and css bugs, implementation-diferences, etc. So let me ask, how is it possible on the almost completely monoculturized web, where is no Presto and almost no Trident anymore, where almost every browser is kind of chrome-isotope. So let me ask, maybe a web developer cn answer me: what is missing to be able to provide complete support forthe main browsers? Is there still prefixed css tags? OR is it so hard to handle differences between browsers/browser-versions? Doesn't CSS have any graceful fallback functionality for older browsers? Why is this phenomen exists today?

Placing a potato resets the css animations. NICE!

TLDR: Author bought a phone which comes with no Google API and surprised because it comes with no Google API, so cries a river because can't consume, so the product is sh*t. It could be drastic to recognize nowadays a nice hw doesn't mean anything without the support of the program developers, which requires some API. But you wanted this, you got this. In your next life you will maybe consider to support not just big players with your money.

Asking the user is ALWAYS possible before you tracks them.

Unrelated comment, but am i the only one who gets annoyed by the "does it runs safari?" or "does it runs adobe?" questions? It seems a significant portion of "readers" can't or won't actually read, which is pretty ironic on a news site. I hate this.

It is illegal use then, what will envolve to theft as soon as they decide to stay indefinitely, what they actually already did, and will realised as somebody try to push them out with or without police force. I don't care if it state or private owned property is: "occupying" homes is theft in my eyes, as it fundamentally shaking the work and merrit based society.

This is basically theft. I bought a home in my home country and still working in foreign land to pay for it, so the home stands there empty, but i would kill if somebody would just "occupy" it while i am landlocked in a different country because corona.
