I mean with a mouse, Clearly pulling the scroller ball down making the page
go down is standard, and doing it a different way is just not right. It is
almost like them making their own wired networking protocol.
The big problem is that I am waiting for the day that people claim that the
Gnome team are copying Apple, that would just be a shame in terms of giving
credit where it is deserved.
When that day arraives, we will know that stupidity will be terminal. By only
seen the dates these
Only fools don't use GNU/Linux.
Without thinking about freedom and similar, Ubuntu (which I use on one
computer, and used to use on both) is so much better in functionality than
windows.
And as for MacOS, I have never ever ever worked out how to use it. You scroll
one way, and it goes the
That day has unfortunately come. I don't have much programming knowledge so I
spend a lot of time checking out artworks and themes. In the websites that
host these works I have noticed people commenting - The Apple design team is
so perfect that most of the themes for Gnome and KDE are
It is better that people don't use Free software at all than choosing it
because it is free of cost. I chose Trisquel not because it is free. I coul
have easily got a pirated Windows on my PC so easily. They are out in plenty
in countries like mine. I chose it because of the philosophy.

If you're talking about scrolling with a laptop's touchpad I've got 2
installations of Trisquel on mine, one with GNOME on Belenos and another with
KDE on Toutatis (among others) and scrolling on the touchpad one way yield
different results on the 2 (GNOME on Belenos being the
Elemental OS is simply bizarre because of this. I don't get it.
Hello ladies and gentlemen.
Have you ever felt a rage sentiment that rises owing to witnessing a
particular vignette? Because I felt that In the Apple WWDC 2014:
First of all, they present to us how awesome their translucent themes are,
acting like if nobody had implemented something like
If you turn a few pages of history you'll find out that their glorified MAC
OS X is actually based on GNU\Linux(or Linux as they refer to). Search for
Darwin and MKLinux projects. So, I'm not surprised a bit.
There are _a lot_ of stupid people in the world doing _a lot_ of stupid
things. If you bother yourself with everyone of them your life will become
the great tale of anger.
So why did you watch it in the first place?
In my opinion, the popular desktop environments are the pearl of the free
What? I thought it's based on BSD.
Yes, but they started these projects to make improvements in the OS.
MkLinux was the first attempt by Apple to support a free and open source
software project. The work done with the Mach 3.0 kernel in MkLinux was
extremely helpful in bringing up NeXTSTEP on the Mac platform, which would
The best thing is that they understand that people may not accept these
innovations readily no matter how good they are. So, free desktop environment
makers always give users an option to kepp using the older versions while
they get familiarised with the new interface. They don't just leave
It is one thing to see these things copied or inspired from the Free
software community it is somewhat expected to happen from time to time, yes
it is a bit more blatant in this case but you essentially just have to leave
it be. Just rest in the knowledge that if they are turning to Free
Personally I have watched it, I watch most conference presentations and spend
a lot of time following all the technology news. I do not want to use it in
any form but it is good to keep an eye on what is going on other areas of
technology. As much as we might not want it to, unfortunately
Have you guys looked at their so called phone and desktop
integration.Remember KDE Connect ???
How seamlessly it integrated Android notifications on the KDE desktop.
Gnome team started off looking at Apple design, but today they have surpassed
them at ease.
Look at KDE, they have done so
GNU/Linux should come out a one entity ( Ubuntu followed by Fedora and
Slackware maybe, with of course their libre editions for people like us :) )
and aim the desktop with unified feeling.KDE for e-Windows users and GNOME
