  • I assume you mean D.J.T is grasping at straws? Which he absolutely is! “Laughing Kamala” isn’t the solid burn he thinks it is LOL Suing to force Biden to stay in the race? Haha LOL good one! Oh, they’re serious? I don’t think forcing someone to stay in a race against their will is a viable legal option?? And I bet Trump is regretting his VP choice now! His whole platform seems to be “Chicks right, they should shut up and get back in the kitchen! Fricken crazy cat women running the place! NO they can’t choose what to do with their own body! Get pregnant or you’re worthless! Shouldn’t be able to vote if you don’t churn out babies!” Awesome VP to run in a race against a woman LOL Loved his speech about how he drank a diet mountain dew yesterday and today… Riveting stuff! LOL Is it telling that I can remember the soda he referenced but I can’t remember his name? I’m sure it’ll come to me…





  • No actor/actress should have their pool of potential roles made vanishingly small because of a thing they can’t change, the colour of their skin! And then on top of there being very few roles for people of colour in western pop culture based on your criteria, the very few roles they COULD take are often ALSO given to white actors/actresses in bizarre acts of whitewashing idiocy! It’s infuriating! Talent, passion, skill, training, these should be the kinds of factors involved when choosing who gets cast for what role, not where you fall on the colour wheel! It’s just crazy to me that it’s even a consideration at all and in future people will look back and be incredulous that it ever was!? At least I hope that will be the case, as we are making slow progress in that direction.


  • 0:00 We all know, that GNOME has been one of the best desktop environments providing
    0:03 a graphical user interface for the Linux operating system. It delivers a next-level
    0:08 user experience that is similar to Windows and macOS. However, there are a few things you can
    0:14 do to enhance your gnome desktop functionality. This is where Gnome Extensions comes into play. 0:21 An extension is a software that allows you to take your GNOME customization to the next
    0:26 level. By using the extensions, you can customize GNOME Shell,
    0:31 add app transitions, as well as additional features like window tiling.
    0:36 In this video, I will show you the top 15 must-install GNOME extensions for Linux
    0:42 systems in 2024. For demonstration purposes, I choose to use arch linux but these extensions can
    0:49 be used on any GNOME-based distribution such as Fedora, Manjaro, Zorin, Pop OS, and more. 0:57 Before we begin, If you enjoy this video, please
    1:00 like and help the YouTube algorithm make it visible to more people.
    1:03 Requirements The only requirement of this
    1:05 video is to ensure you have installed the flatpak package on your Linux system. Then, open the
    1:11 terminal on your gnome desktop and download the extensions manager using flatpak. Once installed,
    1:19 open the extensions manager. This is a simple tool that allows you to install any gnome extension.
    1:26 The user interface is clean and intuitive, with two sections on the top bar, Browse and Installed.
    1:32 The Installed section displays all the extensions installed by the user. The “Browser” section,
    1:38 allows you to search for any GNOME extension. Let’s start installing gnome extensions.

    3:16 PaperWM is a Gnome Shell extension that provides scrollable tiling of windows and per-monitor
    3:23 workspaces. It’s inspired by paper notebooks and tiling window managers, it makes working
    3:29 with different applications very easy. Hovering on the left or right gives the preview of an app,
    3:36 and clicking on it puts the app into focus mode. By toggling the workspace button,
    3:50 you can change the Windows focus mode to the center or default.

    4:13 mini app View. By holding the left mouse button you can drag the mini window and

    4:30 By hovering on the Window preview and scrolling
    4:33 with the mouse wheel switches to different applications. 4:37 This is my favorite extension that allows
    4:39 to monitoring of a specific app while working with other apps.

    4:52 Quick Settings tweaker lets you add media controls, notifications,
    4:56 and volume mixers to quick settings and remove useless buttons giving
    5:00 a brand new look to the default quick settings and making it more functional
    5:04 and practical. You can notice the date menu goes vertical and looks minimal.

    Privacy Settings
    5:12 Along with that installing the privacy settings extension adds a privacy toggle
    5:17 that allows you to enable or disable the camera, microphone, and location services.

    Apps Menu
    5:31 Apps Menu is a must-have extension that categorizes the installed applications
    5:37 making it easy to find the app you need based on category.

    7:32 rearrange all these menu items according to your liking by dragging them with the left
    7:37 mouse button. You can even delete the specific menu items by clicking on the three-dot menu.

    SpeedUp Gnome Shell
    8:03 Gnome 4x UI improvements tune Overview UI to make it more usable. You can increase the size
    8:08 of Workspace thumbnails, hide the search bar & show it only when the user begins to search. 8:24 In combination with that, Impatience is another
    8:26 extension that helps increase the animation speed of the GNOME Shell

    Wiggle
    8:44 Wiggle is an extension that magnifies the cursor when the mouse is moved rapidly
    8:49 which is extremely useful especially when working with large screen monitors. So
    8:56 when you forget the location of the mouse pointer just wiggle the mouse to find it.

    10:35 is compatible with Wayland. This allows quick access to the terminal by clicking on this icon
    10:41 on the top bar. It’s very responsive and also provides an option to customize it. 11:03 That’s pretty much it, these are the top 15 best gnome extensions that
