30-some years ago while driving around town, one of my buddies sees a car wash sign and completely seriously is like "What the hell is a car Polish?" We all just about died from laughter and still bring it up regularly.
I imagine her being annoyed as a baby but being taken from the computer by her parents. Thus a lifelong resentment of computers and Linux had formed until she finally was able to overcome it and fix the bug.
After digging through the codebase, Kamila traced the freeze back to the way E16 handled overly long file names. When a window title was too long and needed to be truncated, the algorithm responsible for doing so had no iteration limit. So it would spin indefinitely, locking up the desktop entirely.
Ah, no wonder it went unfixed for so long, most people would just rename stuff and carry on
Should I move to Poland? My government keeps publicly threatening to send me to an extermination camp and moving to Poland worked out for one of my relatives in this exact circumstance once before.
Man, i remember when I first manged to properly install enlightenment on SUSE. I knew almost nothing about linux. It was just pure trial and error from dependencies to proper drivers. I felt so proud when I finally got it working.
I canāt scroll this site without getting floating popups for Comcast in Spanish. Itās so annoying having to turn on Adblock for the shit tier sites
Attempting to seduce me romantically will end poorly for you. Attempting to convince me to work on your blockchain or webdev projects will end even worse.
Enlightenment was always intriguing to me but man was it buggy and a hog on my āi found this lil guy in a skidā class computers. Has it gotten better ?

You could say she added some Polish to it.
I'll see myself out.

Why are the polish kicking so much Foss ass in the past years?
nailbar@sopuli.xyz · 18 pts · 120d
Polishing the code just comes naturally to them, see

I wouldn't call a de bug a linux bug. Enlightenment is so niche at this point I don't think anyone would have even found the bug if not for her.

I didn't, but I spent 5 minutes to research, and it's the BlueSteel theme.
It isn't available on KDE.
