What I love most about KDE5 is how it's become a genuinely lightweight desktop, yet has stayed highly stable and full-featured. I think people who had bad experiences with KDE4 (and that's basically everyone who used it) owe it to themselves to give KDE5 a try. It's a night and day change.

I like a tidy desktop.
The real tragedy about that novel is that Heinlein didn't live long enough to see the masterpiece that Verhoeven transformed it into.
It's not the most awful thing Heinlein wrote, though. I think "Friday" deserves that dubious prize.
Is the spring of drowned girl filled with gender fluid?
Don't do this to me! I've been checking out prices on leather skirts all week. As sexy as it would look and feel, my bank account is yelling "don't do that".
I thought Asteroid City was going to sweep the awards. It's exactly the kind of safe bland toothless navel-gazing "let's watch fictional actors put on a show!" oscarbait that usually does.
His job in the gulag should be sound editing. He stays there until he gets it right.
I'm thinking of doing vocal performances of excerpts from "The School of Venus" (published in 1655) on tiktok. I'm told I have a voice for radio and that I should do book readings there. Starting with a classic text that's well out of copyright seems like a good idea.
It's fun! It's a very practical language. By far my favourite thing about Go is that the standard library is massive. For example, you can write a high-performance HTTP server that can handle a ridiculous number of concurrent requests in only a few dozen lines of code, because all the functions are in the standard library. But despite that huge library, it's really easy to learn because there's a relatively small number of keywords, and all the standard library functions work in a consistent way. If you already have familiarity with C, learning Go is basically a weekend project.
One thing that Go lacks is a mature UI toolkit. It's fantastic for writing memory-safe and fast network services and command line utilities, but I probably wouldn't recommend it quite yet for desktop or mobile apps. The Fyne folks are working on fixing that.
One of the reasons I love Go is because the language's designers took a lot of lessons learned from Plan 9 and even improved on them. For example, that easy cross-compilation is also in Go. As is the lightning-fast compilation.
I now desperately want to see a David Lynch adaptation of a famous anime or manga. I don't care which one, so long as he has full creative control.

Given that the context was Hyprland possibly becoming a formal part of FDO, expecting Hyprland's developers to abide by the FDO CoC in that event was a completely reasonable expectation.
