And you know this because of your firsthand experience observing it... or because the media told you so? Considering how readily the media is willing to lie for engagement, the truth is more likely to be the opposite of what they report.

At least you know it wasn’t written by AI… maybe it was left in a draft state because the author disliked the idea of being accused of writing it with AI

Or you can use tailwind-ui components that look way more polished.

Another big advantage of the Tailwind approach is that you can copy any component you see on the web, paste it in your project, and it will look the same (unless custom classes are used). No need to hunt down and adapt the whole cascade of styles for each tag.

In that sense, Tailwind has some of the earlier-Internet charm where you learned by seeing what others were doing.

The best translation for “te quiero” is “I care about you”

If you have time to play video games, you probably have time to sleep well and exercise... which is proved to be positively correlated with well-being

I complained about that for years until one day I founded you can actually remap Ctrl+C in your terminal, and the usual kill signal will still work when nothing is selected.

Is not a built in text editor, is a command to open programmatically your default text editor to edit a file (new or existing).

There are several cases when you would want to do that, for example, think on the git CLI, that opens one so you can write a commit message, etc.

And is not only about using the EDITOR variable, most non-programmers doesn’t have one defined or it points to vim or something equally terrible for non technical users.

But not a texteditor.

You can use this library for that: https://pypi.org/project/texteditor/

It does, but that the fact that the ponzy scheme that is cryptocurrency hasn't been made illegal by now should angers me even more.

I think real child porn should be 100% on that list.

However, even what child porn "is" sometimes depends of the culture or even the political climate. Like with the Japanese "lolis" (erotic drawings of fictional minor-looking girls), illegal in some countries but fine in others (so far).

KDE activities are separated instances of all your desktops. So you can have a set of desktops with open applications, background images, etc. for "Work", and other for "Personal", for example.
