    Gnome: GSpot. It doesn’t actually exist (GNOME devs though there was no use case for it)

      The application most likely to cause confusion among True Gamers™ who got fed up with Windows.

      (PRO TIP: dolphin is the KDE file manager, dolphin-emu is what you really want. PRO TIP 2: To defeat the PulseAudio daemon, shoot at it until it dies)

        To defeat the PulseAudio daemon, shoot at it until it dies

        Jack is potentially the most sensibly named.

        Is pipewire pipe or wire? Only the gods are allowed to know that.

      Like if Nautilus is any better

      Or, like, Total Commander. A wild guess would be some strategy game.

    Can’t find the app guys. Where is it? Bruh. Help me someone, my girlfriend is coming home and I don’t want to get mocked for the same thing two days in a row.

      I’m a dev. I develop little prototypes and things with Rust. I often create a new repository and don’t give the project a name, until I’ve coded enough of it that I know where it’s going.

      A few years back, the makers of the programming language Rust started punishing people for prepending rust- before the names of their tools and apps. They recommended that people append -rs to the end.

      The combination of these two things caused me to end up with a whole bunch of repositories named something like cli-rs or clitool-rs, both of which I’d just pronounce as clitoris.

      It’s still the best social media for anything worthwhile. Hyperlocal news, sports, government agencies, corporate news, everyone posts there since nobody looks at Facebook anymore and Instagram is mainly for pics. All the good artists are on Twitter as well.

      Nobody is posting to Mastodon because actually finding information and people is proper impossible. I mean hell I almost never see any posts from Mastodon getting posted to any meme community because everyone is all tech and politics and doom and serious.
