I contributed to GNOME Shell! It's just a one-liner, but still, it's a contribution!

I added touchpad gestures so you can now change workspaces not just with a 3-finger swipe, but also a 4-finger swipe (or any amount of fingers larger than that, if you're feeling really adventurous).

@gregorni I really like the wording of "any amount of fingers higher than that" because it implies an ethereal being, perhaps Fingers Georg will be able to operate this gesture.

Hey web developers, this may seem like a dumb question, but when I was a young warthog you would link to a directory (just a simple "a href"), and if that directory had an index.html page it would assume that's what you wanted. Now I'm just getting one of those "Index of" pages (with that index.html page visible!) is it because it's running locally instead of a proper web server? Has this just overall changed and I didn't know?

@gamingonlinux sorry that you're subjected to that kind of nonsense. Frankly I'm not even seeing their point - it's not like the blog is called "foss gaming on Linux".

Is it better to have multiple python lists or one giant list with multiple lists embedded? Taking from perspective of speed and ram/CPU usage.

@meejah @diazona yeah you both made a good point. Thanks for responding. I guess I also don't want to have someone reading that code and going "wow they did it THAT way? terrible."

@lonseidman Chrome support has really improved. We're now at 10 years of support from time of manufacture https://chromeunboxed.com/google-adding-2-years-of-support-to-chromebook-expiration-date-aue/

Open source developers aren’t making their apps available as snaps… so Ubuntu is working on improved snap automation tools to do it for them.

@omgubuntu I really cannot wrap my head around any of these packaging formats to be honest. Just using PyInstaller to build a zip, I know it's not ideal.

Wireless display support and a new 'system' panel are among the exciting ideas may work on during this summer's GSoC https://www.omglinux.com/gnome-gsoc-2023-projects-interesting/

@omglinux "Wireless display" - are we talking about Miracast?

@omglinux that's neat.
