I promise that we’re not all bigots that think our shit doesn’t stink, just most of us. But I just want to add that it’s unfortunately not just white people. Look up the ‘Marikana massacre’ that likely happened under the direction of our current president, considering that he was one of the shareholders pressuring the police to take action.

This place is fucked, top to bottom. The real freedom fighters like Mandela are all dead and gone and we’re left with businessmen and openly corrupt freeloaders. People that say things like “I didn’t join the struggle to be poor” while being more than happy to sit back and watch as the country they supposedly fought for collapses under the weight of poverty.

In one of the articles doing the rounds for this ‘ceasefire’ last night, the title was all about this “ceasefire agreement being reached”, then in the post under the article the person wrote “the office of Netanyahu has not yet finalized things on their end”. So clearly people have different definitions of “an agreement being reached”, like Windows Update and the concept of “100% complete”.

Most of their design choices from 8 onwards have been pretty questionable. To me, the way they just slapped the new UI on top of the old UI with different things and ways to access them in each, just comes across as seriously half assed. Like they’re just not interested in putting the effort in anymore.

Even on Windows 11 (which I don’t use personally but have worked with), they ruined the old right click menu by slapping a new menu on top of it that has half the options. So you need to click “show more options” every damn time. Instead of cleaning up or upgrading the old menu a bit and maybe offering the option of customising it, they just hid it with a new, useless menu. And still haven’t learnt from Windows 8 because it still has that two different UI designs, half / half, new / old thing going for it.

As far as modern, nice looking, well designed desktop environments go, KDE puts Windows absolutely to shame these days.
