What a perfect loop.

Yes mathematically it scales perfectly. Except in the end it still gets rasterized. Because you have carrying line thicknesses in the icons themselves, it’s important to check how the icons look at common scales / sizes on a regular monitor resolutions such as 1080p, 1440p, and 4k.
No no, I understand what it shows. I’m suggesting the blended version looks nice and could be an extra option.

Could be useful to check scaling. How’s it look really small to really large. Might help inform some of the line work decisions. Looks nice with all the colors!
Also, the way you present the bottom row with a blended gradient, might be its own nice set, preserving the blending so each icon has a bit of multiple colors to it.

It was such a revolution. Then Aqua came along and everything changed. Liquid Glass looks pretty nice to me but I’m mostly just glad we’re getting dimension back. Material flat UI is a stain on the world.

Only thing it doesn’t have is physical media (cd, dvd, cassette). If you plug in an iPhone that supports CarPlay, but turn off / disallow CarPlay from the phone settings, it just shows up as “iPod” too, so any downloaded music works fine.

astrsk@fedia.ioto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the dumbest way you've sustained an injury, and what was the injury?6·1 month agoWhen I was about 6 years old, I had just gotten back from spending a weekend with my cousins who were like my siblings because I was an only child. We had fun running around and playing catch and riding bikes etc. and my cousin showed me monster trucks for the first time ever. So while I was alone in my room I had the tv on waiting for a new episode of monster trucks to come on and throwing a football across the room to myself, jumping onto my bed to catch it.
On what would be my last attempt, I lobbed the ball, took a couple steps and jumped forward. Unfortunately, I misjudged the distance. The next thing I know I am on the floor trying to sit up and looking around trying to figure out what happened. When I looked down I saw a stream of blood dripping onto my arm and hand. I just screamed until my parents showed up to help.
I wound up being taken to the urgent care and spending a night at the hospital because I landed face first onto the sharp wooden corner of my bed frame, shattering my nose into 6 pieces and splitting my face open requiring reconstruction and about 80 stitches. Decades later and you’d never know it happened but boy do I think back at how dumb that was lol.
I think you’re confused about my sentiments.
It doesn’t matter how well the current apps run, they should be 1st class citizen features seeing as power toys has been around since Windows 95 days as a series of useful tweaks and applications that are ubiquitous enough to exist through till now, including the constant expansion of features since the windows 10 open source version was published several years ago.
If there wasn’t a dedicated community around these features, then you’d have an argument that they’re superfluous but the project has taken off like a rocket with regular improvements and fixes all these years now.
The point is that Microsoft is prioritizing so many things with AI/copilot these days, it’s a damn shame they relegate actually useful features to the open source community where performance and integration is likely suffering, despite the community’s best efforts.
Windows Power Toys is a suite of programs and tweaks for Windows, one of which is “Run” that behaves similar to spotlight search on macOS. If you have to operate in Windows, I’d say the suite is a must-have for Run, Fancy Zones, File Renamer, Screen Ruler, and Color Picker alone. It’s good software that should be built into the OS but for some reason is not— built and maintained by a dedicated open source community these days as opposed to just a couple individuals from inside Microsoft back in the day when Power Toys was a proprietary tool first released on Windows 95.
What about a hard drive made of network pings?
Can confirm the LTE models are totally worth it especially if you have AirPods and some music streaming service (or get a model with enough storage for your local songs). It’s amazing being able to just walk out of the house, still have music, notifications, the ability to call emergency services, directions, and even my 2FA unlocks when needed all on my wrist, all day. And unlimited data is only a $10 addon to my existing provider line.

If your app doesn’t respond to SIGTERM gracefully, you need to fix your app. The system did its job as documented.

Yes, look on their website for compatible models, there’s a handful of affordable ones, many which perform better on higher tier connections too. Been using my own modems with Comcast for 25 years.
