people who study math or CS (including me) often need to read this
If you think you know everything, you probably just don’t know how much you don’t know.
If you think you don’t know anything, you probably have just forgotten how much you know.
Don’t compare yourself to know-it-alls.
@Linux_in_a_Bit You might be happier with Cinnamon than Gnome.

Well, me and Microsoft won't be friends in my life anymore. I hate Azure Azure hates me and the support does not know its products, in the end you have to solve it yourself.

Currently playing This War of Mine, based on the siege of Sarajevo.
One guy's depressed, and another suicided, so the cook's gotta go out to raid the area, because he's hungry. I had to burn a book to cook food; may the gods forgive me.
You can raid places with active snipers, raid easy targets with limited supplies, or break into old poeple's homes to steal their supplies.
If I can't make some moonshine cheer today, I'm pretty sure the last two characters are dead.
10/10, would recommend.

@mihira Eden Reforestation Projects https://edenprojects.org seems good. As it happens, Ecosia works with them.
@tulpa
Sounds about right to me.

I think I met a real hacker today. He is a teenager, in someone's car, talking about Haskell and classical music.

@kubikpixel Yeah. Better just donating to reforestation projects. Or taking part at one. Btw, do you know any good ones to donate?

@cstanhope @vidak Please do have empathy on how this man MUST have been pressured like hell from intelligence agencies coming from everywhere. Because of that, I have always considered his behavior was "rather cool" for a man under such coward pressures from all parts.
He is straight and honest. No bla bla.

Luddism was a working-class movement opposed to the political consequences of industrial capitalism. The Luddites wanted technology to be deployed in ways that made work more humane and gave workers more autonomy. The bosses, on the other hand, wanted to drive down costs and increase productivity.

Echoing a toot I saw yesterday: Accessibility is necessary functionality for a UI framework. Internationalization is necessary functionality for a UI framework. Which requires a fair ammount of code & specialized skill to implement.
As much as I'm trying to get rid of bloat (particularly on the web), if your "less bloated" UI framework lacks this I won't take it seriously.
I wonder: Are there any other accessible UI framworks beyond GTK, Qt, Cocoa, the (yuck) DOM, & whatever Windows has?

For just filling a form that has clickable fields, I use Xreader (included by default in Linux Mint). Okular (Windows/Linux) or Adobe Reader (Windows/macOS) also work for this, depending on your OS.
For adding a signature without having to print and scan again, I use Xournal. It's also good for adding text manually when the PDF doesn't have fillable fields.
If the above don't do what you need, you could try messing around with LibreOffice Draw (cross-platform).
@freemo
If you vvanted to, you could alvvays just call the letter double-v, like they do in French, et al.
