@bigcalm Three is better than EE these days at my folk place. But Three in London these days is awful. I now run dual sim, to hop between Three and EE. Was with Three for years and the coverage was always better than I expected. In London they struggle with a lack of spectrum. If th3 merger with Vodashite goes through, at least Three should have access to better 4g spectrum. Three also invested smart in getting a lot of high speed 5g spectrum.

@intrbiz ditto on remembering "same as cp", I avoid calling them src and dest, because that's how my confusion creeps in.
@alex I always think of it as `ln -s src dst` just the same as `cp` and `mv`

@sil that reminds me of this simple graphic from Microsoft

The elephant in the room nobody talks about when discussing the #RHEL changes is the reliance of so many applications and users on a "stable" "enterprise" release because they're themselves to under-resourced to do the work to keep up with the actual speed of #OpenSource development.

Everybody should watch this #LedByDonkeys clip: Water Privatisation is a con. A complete, utter con. We should just get rid of all this - nobody benefits but rich investors

@ascherbaum Spectacle supports all that and can export to various programs.
@ascherbaum what about Spectacle? That works on my KDE with Wayland when pressing Print-Screen.

This is the first of, probably, many posts about the changes to how Red Hat distributes RHEL sources, RHEL clones in general. Not to mention the past, present, and future of FOSS development and business.
Short version: There's probably something in this post for everybody to disagree with.

I love KDE and have never got on with Gnome or a bunch of other DEs.
Best bit of Open Source is we can both like different things.
Tammy Beaumont sets the record for most runs scored in an innings by an English Women's batter. Beating Betty Snowball's record from 1935.
And the 400 up for England Women in the Ashes test against Australia.

Today, the BBC has:
- a debate show about Brexit, featuring an audience of only people who voted to leave
- a substantial profile price of a pro-forced-birth American person
- a massive section on 5 missing rich people, feared drowned
- a tiny news article about 30 missing people, feared drowned
