Looked at it for 20 seconds and seen 3 mistakes already. It's a good idea, but others should be wary of taking this as gospel.

Actually it's almost entirely white space, which does give a sense of the actual KDE ui.

Yeah you can. I was in a cinema last week in Maloolaba for $9. Brisbane has 3 low cost cinemas around the same price, one in Southbank in the city. Just avoid event cinemas and support your local indies.

This article isn't really about old software, it's about software that's current, built on current webapp technology, that will eventually become old. Meanwhile, real "old" software, in use by ten's of thousands of enterprises worldwide, will still be struggling on, nurtured carfully through the developer renaissance, to fit on infrastructure that was never designed to host it's like.

It's the correct attitude. They are not responsible for you having the nouse to install a GTK Theme application like lxappearance and fixing how your Firefox looks.

I've been using mu4e for over a year now and have been very happy with it. For some reason I just couldn't get my head around GNUS workflow and concepts. mu4e just seemed more normal to me, but with great search.
How does this compare to Ansible? It appears to be operate in the same space/level.

Looking forward to the new Pheonix when someone gets fed up enough with the current heavyweight Firefox to write it.

Agreed, and as a comic enthusiast I avoid all mainstream DC and Marvel. It's just one big marketing scam. Stick to Image, Dark Horse, IDW, some Vertigo stuff and you'll be much more rewarded.

If you're using email then various governments (UK, USA) have it no matter where it's hosted. It's not under your control while in transit. At best you can encrypt it, but they'll take a copy of it anyway and burst it open if they need to.

The maker community is important. It does fluke no favours to piss them off. Nice to see a switched on company.
