Afaik carriers have the dubious advantage of being combat-viable but given how things are going, that is a pretty scary property for ships to have.

I was thinking of what they could possibly hope to gain by declaring themselves pedophiles, even for the sake of muddying the evidence against Trump, but you are probably right, they are doing this simply because they want to.

Забавно это читать и отмечать про себя, что де-факто главные причины выбирать Bluesky – минимализм и простота, нежелание разрабов совать в соцсеть каждую новоизобретённую кем-нибудь UI-побрякушку.

As expected, some issues did arise. For example, I seem to be missing all Japanese fonts, and as a result, all the characters look like Unicode rectangles with numbers. I am too sleepy to fix it right now, and frankly, I don't know Japanese anyway.

Some of the KDE utils, like Kate and Dolphin, are awesome. Others, like the built-in backup tool, are good but not well-suited for my use cases specifically. A lot more are very case-specific, and some are so niche that I couldn't even tell what exactly they do without googling.

Newbie question: if I do need to index into a string with a value that wasn't obtained from those functions, what function to use?

&str.get()?

I 'like' how every single source on the topic mentions that slicing a string with [<start>..<end>] is a bad practice and can break if the string contains non-single-byte characters, but not a single one explains the proper way to do it.
