that’s what I’d do for a state machine implementation too

as someone who would also reach for a state machine when doing simple parsing… what’s the better alternative in python?

OK, but the fastest ssds these days tend to M.2 PCIE5 x4 drives and they pretty much all start at 1TB. Maybe I’m not looking in the right places, but I wouldn’t know where to find a smaller, faster drive

Intel optane? is there even any advantage left for optane compared with a fast, modern nvme disk?

ah we don’t really use those features much. as long as we can hang out and chat as a friend group, we’re good

which features are missing from xmpp that are necessary for most gamer groups? is it the protocol that is missing the support, or specific implementations? genuinely asking since I’d been considering setting up an xmpp server for my gaming groups

the issue isn’t just that she’s reading and hearing these comments online, the issue is that teenage boys are doing so. social media has normalised this kind of behaviour to them, and they bring those views with them to the real world where girls will interact with them: school, sports clubs etc.

personally I love the way gnome apps use CSD, but then I only ever use gnome. I’m not a fan of the absolute statements people make here, either saying CSD is terrible or superior, I feel like their actual usage is a personal preference.

that said, I would prefer if the gnome project made much more of an effort to integrate its apps into the wider ecosystem. They could add an option that GTK listens to that turns the title bar into just a menu bar, allowing SSD desktops to provide their own decoration. and the gnome desktop could also provide default decorations for apps that don’t have CSD. I think this would provide a better experience for both gnome users and users of other desktops
