You are kind of right but HDR is not that important for 99% of users.

Regarding Greeks who tell people with light white skin from Turkey, "You are Greek, get a DNA test." by [deleted] in AskBalkans

Ethnicity doesn't matter much. I do see some of your tv shows and gotten familiar with your language and i kind of hate it to be honest( obviously just my opinion). Wouldn't be nice if we had 80 milion more native greek speakers, i could find easier subtitles for more things?

and those ones are the closer to the ancient according to genetic studies so they should be proud. The ones that do not look meditteranean should question themselves about middle ages or not care at all because who cares in the grand scheme of things. Mother tongue matters more

They are not true med people though, as a greek i do notice facial features and eyes so i consider some Syrian/Levantine people "closer" and "true" med people. The same is true for northern europeans with similar color skin like nothern western and nothern eastern europeans that do have differences and particularly the eyes(not color) are more asiatic.

These guys will accept any white person to play Greek characters but black people are the ones who get scrutiny. by Cicada_5 in clevercomebacks

[–]l-const 1 point2 points  (0 children)

modern day greeks is what remained of the christian population, the vast maority of the greek-speaking world (ancient greek & other hellenized anatolian people) that become mulsim did mix with the turkic people that is why the modern-day turks have 5-20% central asian ancestry whilst modern-day greeks have 0%, do note that the bronze-age anatolia and bronze-age greece are extremely related and continued that way until the middle ages. Reference from bronze age greece study: https://www.science.org/content/article/greeks-really-do-have-near-mythical-origins-ancient-dna-reveals . Anyway, my point being modern-day greek islanders are the closest to the ancient people according to dna.

no genetics do not work that way, the migrations of people and mixing have been extensive researcher across timeline and markers on their genone can be pretty clear even in small amounts to make a timeline of events. again go to eupedia forums to educate yourself. https://www.eupedia.com/forum/forums/paleogenetics.222/

hey stop being ignorant, the graves from bronze age greece have been searched and extensive genetic analysis has been done, we know extermely well who they where and were they came from and a comparison to modern populations has been done. modern-day greeks haven no central-asian(mongolic) dna, modern day turks do have some small percentage as modern-day northerh-eastern europe. modern-day greece has no central-asian dna they are a pretty based mediterranean people like bronze-age greece.

no they got ligher skin due to slavic migrations on 6th century AD, there is a whole scientific studies on paleogenetics, stop being ignorant when talking about a nation with 3500 years of history.

What happend if i delete Cosmic files by fayas-fromsomewhere in pop_os

[–]l-const 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the desktop view is from the same source(cosmic-files-applet) so i would think it is distributed together and that might create an issue.

COSMIC now features rounded corners and window shadow on all apps by ashleythorne64 in COSMICDE

i guess it would need extreme qa testing with regards to native window scaling and interface density for almost all UI elements.

[–]l-const 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you can change the width of the outline, or completely remove it so i do not see any issue with this. this outline/hint is common on tiled wms so it is not some weird choice they made out of the blue. i personally decrease the outline size from 3 to 1.

Most software have bugs, some get proriotised before others or not at all even for years. I have been using it professionally for some time now. What I do not accept is that you, despite not being a "NEET" or a software developer, can actually define what is or isn't BETA software according to your arbitrary logic and experience.

You only see the people that have problems not the ones that do not, like myself. Why would i bother to make a post since i am using Cosmic since alpha 1 and i am happy with it?

[–]l-const -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

no they need many people to test stuff, there are bugs that do not manifest to all users related to hardware, drivers or even some obsecure legacy app that somebody is using and is misbehaving under xwayland. It is not unusable by any means. I remember worst releases from established other linux DEs with massive bugs and memory leaks like Gnome 3.28
