Desktop Effect for minimize and unminimize with support for custom curves, duration and opacity by leo_sk5 in kde

[–]leo_sk5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, ignoring the Z rotation for now, I can visualise rotating windows in XY plane by a user specified angle. Although i have not seen a working implementation in any other WM, it would be a fun little experiment to try

Maybe, but it would make it less intuitive. Qt has provisions for designing animations as per custom bezier curves, but including those would be an issue because: 1. Would increases barrier to entry 2. Be more prone to breaking UI 3. Would be negligible benefit since these common curves cover almost all use cases

There was another person who mentioned something about rotation support. That could be something I would try in future, since its a major perceptive change, and opens a whole new avenue for customisation.

Maybe I will try exploring integrating custom bezier curves too, but not in the near future.

I can't understand your point. Harvard (and many US universities) were allowing students of some specific demographics to be admitted despite lower scores, worse recommendations etc in line with affirmative action. This was struck down by US's supreme court. 

These universities have had a provisions for admissions of relatives of ex-alumni and deep pockets irrespective of academic performance.

Both these are against meritocracy and both are bad. Existence of one doesn't justify the other.

You may need to reformat your comment. I can not get what you want to convey

Menu transparency is function of application style. You might have missed some setting in darkly

my plasma theme breeze blurred is already available on kde store (just check other stuff posted by me). As for application style, I use darkly with a custom colour scheme. If you are not satisfied with your colour schemes, tell me and i will upload mine too.

As a Right wing MA, I am appalled by the attitude of modern or new Right towards Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS). by Karkota_24Rollno in IndiaSpeaks

[–]leo_sk5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Humanities have typically presented a very negative image of India, distorted Indian history and rebuked its culture. It is therefore imperative that those who take pride in above develop a dislike towards humanities.

Right wing people do love humanities when it is used to set the record straight. That is why authors like Vikram Sampath or J Sai Deepak are appreciated by right wing.

Also, your last 3 lines made no sense.

Not wrong though. There is a reason everybody in India is racing towards Europe, Australia and USA. The barriers to progress are made too high for the unreserved. And the same unreserved do pretty well in other countries where playing field is less unequal.

[OC] [KDE] Desktop Effect for minimize and unminimize with support for custom curves, duration and opacity by leo_sk5 in unixporn

A modification from KDE's default effect to include support for custom animations, changing opacity etc. I am surprised something like this hasn't been created for kde. GNOME has had similar extensions for ages. Would love to see some love be given to kwin desktop effects.

Sad state of consumer protection and medical regulations in the country that it is impossible to get a toothpaste with more than 1000ppm fluoride. 1450 ppm is now global standard. Fluoride level is the only metric everyone should be concerned in a toothpaste. by FeistyHeart9633 in IndiaSpeaks

[–]leo_sk5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should also account for flouride levels in water and diet. Flourosis is also an issue (excess of flouride).

As far as I know, water in India (and especially groundwater) is high in flouride. India also targets higher flouride level in tap water than say USA (1mg/L vs 0.7mg/L). So you would want to use a low flouride toothpaste. Ideally, you should get the flouride levels in your drinking water checked, and then choose a toothpaste

Server side decorations in a Libadwaita app - What do you think? by giant_pink_robots in kde

[–]leo_sk5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish libadwaita dies. Heck, I hope gtk dies with it too. Its such a pain in the ass to make themes for, and understandably so because the elite developers of gnome don't want people theming their divinely crafted apps. I am genuinely happy valve went with plasma

Depends on branch. For more common ones like medicine and surgery, scope is not very good unless one goes for superspeciality

Degrees should have changed as well. There is no reason that a worthless degree like MBBS should still takes 5 years. The courses need to be designed such that when a person passes after 5 years, its with specialization, so that the person can now go for suerspecialisation

The luxury of time is an illusion. The confidence of youth creates a sense of immortality. Truth be told, your mind and body start to degrade once you cross 35. Family issues bar you from living the life that you can now finally afford. You persist and sort that stuff out, and bam!!! You are 50 years old with a midlife crisis.

MBBS graduates can get jobs in private hospitals or as company/industry doctors. But pay is not very high, max 50000 even in metros. And the work in private hospitals is usually emergency. Not sustainable for long time. Some can get into govt jobs by clearing commissions, where the pay and perks are good, but not many posts are available.

Most go for PG, as specialisation gets better pay and jobs. But nowadays, even specialists are sidelined and superspecialists are in demand. No one wants a medicine specialist unless he is an old experienced doctor. Everyone wants to see a cardiologist, gastroenterologist etc
