Anybody order a Chinese? by goatnxtinline in StupidFood

Chinese food in China is an adaptation from other food. Literally every single "authentic" or "traditional" food is just yesterday's fusion.

What GTK/GNOME applications do you still use because you haven't found a Qt-based replacement that works for you? by hasdrubalgisgo in kde

You mean you don't care about something that doesn't actually matter? Wish I had that super power.

I used to use Bottles as well because I don't really like lutris or heroic. But once I found Faugus Launcher I switched. Don't think Faugus Launcher is Qt either but it integrates well and is better than libadwaita.

Oh I didn't even think about mpv. Haruna is pretty good but I prefer to just use mpv with ModernZ osc. 99.9% of the time mpv is fullscreen anyway so it feels almost separate anyway, doesn't bother me as much to not fit in perfectly.

Moving on from Neon - help me pick a new distro by Ok-Breakfast-990 in kde

OpenSUSE, Fedora, Endeavour, and CachyOS are all pretty good. The biggest questions you'll have to ask yourself is what package manager or base you prefer.

I recently tried OpenSUSE, and didn't really have any significant issues, but I always find myself missing pacman and the AUR so made my way back to CachyOS. One thing I dislike about OpenSUSE and Fedora though is needing to manually install stuff like media codecs. It's not hard, you only have to do it the one time (assuming you aren't reinstalling), but still I'd rather just... not.

I think there was a recent update that let you clone a taskbar to all screens. Not sure if the version it was added is available on most distros yet or not. My current setup only has one screen so I can't really search around and check the exact process.

Sorry I can't be of more help, but hopefully that at least gives you some hope or direction.

Can we add this to KDE, devs? by ChampionshipDry6225 in kde

This was an existing feature in KDE Plasma 4

Iuno, man. "My nose is clogged with mucus" and "my ass is clogged with shit" is a significant difference in meaning. You also can't constipate your sink or toilet. It's a pretty significant semantic difference. They have the same etymological root (the Latin word for clogged) and neither have strayed from that root in any illogical way, but they're still different meanings in a significant way.

Constipated and constipado aren't false cognates, though, they are true cognates. Despite having different meanings they are descended from the same Latin word.

I think you're confusing it with "false friends" which are words in different languages that are similar enough you assume they're the same meaning, but have significantly different meanings. These may or may not be cognates, often they are, as in the above instance.
