On the Wikipedia 'Comparisons of Operating Systems' page, it says that MCP, originally developed by Burroughs in 1961, had its last stable release in 2021. What is it still being used for? by Brickardo in c/[email protected]

Is it so hard to open a window for some people, or to go out past 20:00? For the record, I live in Spain as well.

Skill issue!

Make the left worth voting for again. And no, social democracy does not make the cut in any way, shape or form.

If you think a two party system is "way more" democratic than a one party system, there's nothing else worth discussing with you.

KRunner vs Application Launcher (use cases?) (feddit.nl)

submitted 1 month ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Lately, I found out that Application Launcher also features all the functionality I use from KRunner.

In my particular experience, Application Launcher is snappier at first launch and also returns results rather quickly. For me, this begs an obvious question.

What's the use case for using KRunner over the Application Launcher?

So far I've noticed that pressing Enter on the Calculator results makes the entry be copied on KRunner, but this does not happen for the Application Launcher. I'm certain there must be something else to it, otherwise people would not be using it (even I found myself using it from time to time, but could not understand why).

You can find and download the project from the KDE Store and from https://store.kde.org/p/1804745/

Hey guys,

Just wanted to tell you that Day/Night Switcher has been finally ported to Plasma 6. I couldn't have done this with the interest by the community on the project's continuation. Anyway, let us all enjoy it.

I am only posting this in the hopes that old users who moved to Plasma 6 may catch up on the news.

See you around, kids!
