Those other people are happy because they ate their chicken instead of playing with it.

That was decades ago, though.

For a grey background, yellow text is usually preferred.

It reminds me of the weirdoes buying wine to splill it down the drain when France had the audacity of telling the truth in the un during the whole Irak mess. Of course the wine makers and sellers were fine with that.

Most places will only know of strippers because of us movies, but are still plagued with politicians.

The power of modern propaganda is impressive and frightening.

What else can they do? Have you seen the price of houses lately?

So you're saying there's nothing that can be done?

Is brother Maynard still with the party? No? Shame.

Gold has some uses. Diamonds have a few industrial applications as well. Some other gems too in optics I think, but natural ones would probably be useless there.

So, would you rather fight one skyscraper sized child or sixteen thousand regular children?

Plasma 6 changed the way scrollbars work for some reason. Now when you click somewhere with mouse1 the elevator jums there and the window content scrolls accordingly.

Previously, it would scroll by one window's worth in the appropriate direction. If you wanted to jump to a given location, you just used mouse2 (typically the scroll wheel button nowadays). It has worked that way everywhere for literally decades.

After reading the very weird explanation for the change, I can only conclude that the devs don't even know how to use their interface.

Hence my question, is there a setting somewhere to switch back to the traditional behaviour?
