True, it feels like places are a lot more strict about it now than they used to be.
When I was younger, despite it technically not being legal, it was normal to let teenagers drink in pubs, because it was seen as better to have them there where adults could keep an eye on them than out on the street at night. That just isn’t a thing in pubs anymore in my experience.
(My experience is based on the UK and Ireland, I’m not sure about elsewhere)
If you were born in 19XX and are somehow still getting ID’d then you’re one of the lucky ones.
Film, yes.
Book, hell no. He will go out of his way to tell you he will be king and that he knows his rightful place is on the throne.
The stewards were a line of kings in all but name.

Always is with Phoronix comments.
You find everything there from “Gnome is satanist” all the way up to pro-genocide crap.
I really don’t know what it is about the site that brings out the craziest souch.
Doesn’t actually seem like a bad release at all.
But I’m pretty married to Flatpaks at this point so no thanks, I’m good.
E: not sure who I’ve hurt the feelings of, Snap fans (are they out there?) or Flatpak haters. Either way, nobody important.
I have a Fedora Workstation (i.e. Gnome) desktop, a Fedora Workstation laptop, a Windows 10 laptop I’m forced to use for work.
My wife doesn’t have a PC (well I guess she has a Steam Deck, actually, but it only ever goes into desktop mode in order to install/update Stardew Valley mods).
My daughter has my old laptop, with Mint on it.
No issues so far.
My dad did have a laptop with ElementaryOS on it, but since he bought an iPad the laptop has just been gathering dust.
Looking through the gitlab, it seems the backport of this hold gesture to GTK3 was rejected for good reason. Seems very unfair to imply it was done out of sheer spite.
It would break a lot, require a new API, and devs reworking a lot of programs.
It’s also completely reasonable just from the POV of not accepting major new features in GTK3 when GTK4 exists.
Devs likely expect GTK3 to be feature-stable, given GTK4 has been out a while and GTK5 work starting soon. It’s at the tail-end of its life.
If somebody wanted a major new feature in Python, for example, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Python team gave it the go-ahead for Python 3 but not Python 2. GTK3 is done, they’re only really doing bug fixes now.
Nobody expects new features to be added to Plasma 5 or Gnome 45.
It’s 100% the right decision not to keep adding features to an old widget toolkit that has been superceded by GTK4 and is almost EoL.
That issue aside… good. Seems like a nice feature.
Yes, elves in the books are a lot more… human.
They feast, they sing, they dance, they do stupid things, they prank each other. If anything they seem the most playful race.
Shit, in The Hobbit, a soldier on duty gets so drunk that he passes out, allowing Bilbo and the Dwarves are able to escape in barrels.
PJ very much took the Elves and said “let’s make them into Star Trek Vulcans!”
Elves looking down on the other races in middle earth? Say it ain’t so!

Where’s that meme of Obama putting a medal on Obama?
Far below the deepest delving of the Dwarves, the world is gnawed by nameless things. This one we shall call… Mr Tiddles.
Durin’s Bane… a Balrog of Meowgoth
Gnome like to get things perfect before they make it default. It’s what makes Gnome pretty stable, even if it does mean power users have to type in a command to expose the setting in the meantime.
The wait can be frustrating though.
Idk why this submission is being downvoted, this is some nice work.
The attention to detail in Libadwaita is pretty great
Pop is the only one that really ever makes any reference to windows in its marketing
Gnome is great. I don’t really see how it’s tablet-like. It’s an extremely keyboard-focused desktop.
It’s a great addition. It’s a surprisingly powerful aspect of gnome that nobody, not even Gnome, ever seem to talk about.
They really should place a text file in that folder to explain how it works (and of course exempt it as being used as a template)
I’m sorry my lord, but you did say to add the white wizard… How was I to know there were two of them now??
