I’m more of a GIMP guy.
It must be a KDE version.
To all the users in chat having issues with klitoris, protip: it requires sudo for pretty much every command.
Only problem with that is most men wouldn’t be able to find it.
Is this meme from 2020? Windows would just call it Internet Copilot.
The Clit is legit
thanks!
I’ve been looking for that for the past 30 years.
At least the man who provides the documentation is huge.
There’s an awesome linux tool called “fuck”. When you make a typo in a CLI command and get an error message, all you have to do is type “fuck” and it looks at your last command and the error message and takes a guess at fixing it. If it’s right all you have to do is hit Enter. Super useful!
klitoris: Permission deniedbash: klitoris: command not found...
:(No, you should
touch klitorisorfinger klitoris, not bash it.man klitorisno manual entry for klitorisWell that explains a lot.
man klitoris? Don’t you meanbussy?No that would probably be the xfce equivalent.
This is such an underrated joke.
Use the -f option to find it
Who is this Clitoris fellow everyone always talks about? Is he like Diogenes or some shit?
GNOME folks are like “well, before GNOME was even a thing, we had this application called The Gimp, and we kinda wish we didn’t call it that, so please don’t name your apps for laughs OK?”
Is the GNOME version called Gock?
I would not be surprised if KDE already had “Klitoris”
It would have to be some horrid acronym for something like KDE Library Integration Tool Offering Recursive Integration Services or some shit.
Or a Trackpoint driver.
I’m kind of surprised that Apple didn’t name the iPhone just “Phone”.
Don’t forget iPods were this big back when the iPhone was released:
And as others pointed out they had the iMac and iBook and iTunes and the iMac was full of more iNames that I can’t even think of right now. It fit their branding enough that SNL did a joke about iRan and iRack
Probably not enough to get recognised as a brand.
Common dictionary words are not trademarkable. In fact, if an existing trademark becomes common in speech it becomes genericized and the trademark is lost. One of my personal hobbies is doing that to Velcro.
That, and you’ve got to remember how big iPods were at the time. In 2007, it was weird that Apple was entering the cell phone market. The iSomething branding basically saved the company in 2001 with the iMac and iBook, the iPod was the first electronics gadget I ever remember being worn as a status symbol, the first that got treated like designer clothing or shoes. That “I have an iPod, and you have…whatever that is.” White headphone cords were a fashion statement. The Motorola Razr phone got the same treatment before the iPhone.
Physical products - maybe, but it doesn’t seem to apply to software. And Apple is not the only offender in that (although I have to admit that they’re somewhat good at coming up with generic and yet recognisable names because of the context). Just try to think of a desktop or mobile OS that doesn’t bundle a default app with a generic name like Files, Mail, Internet and so on.
They’re not trying to trademark those. Others can call their default apps the same thing and it’s fine. Others can’t call their default in house browser chrome (unless they’re google).
One of my personal hobbies is doing that to Velcro
Oh you mean velcro?
Is this xerox a Canon?
See? It’s working.
That’s a brand??? Then what’s the actual thing called?
Hook and loop fastener or something long and unwieldy
Yeah most space age material names are. It’s dacron wrapped in mylar surmounted in inconel plated in clyno and attached with velcro. Which of those did I make up?
I know that Mylar, Inconel and Velcro are real, so it’s a toss-up between Dacron and Clyno.
After consulting an online source, I vote that Clyno is the imposter.
The most clearest description of file explorer: Dolphin (?)
Krusader.
Or nautilus. My assumption is the files are in your sea not in their cloud.
Lumberjack or woodpecker honestly would have been better names since file systems are basically trees
If the file system is a tree, naming the file manager for someone whose job it is to destroy the tree seems silly.
Like if Nautilus is any better
Or, like, Total Commander. A wild guess would be some strategy game.
Meanwhile, Midnight Commander reads like the title to a pornogram.
Once a couple employers ago, I got an email from IT admins demanding that I uninstall that “game”.
The nautical theme also continues with Nemo
Dolphin, the total commander of nautilus!
Wasn’t it named after Norton Commander?
I mean, yeah, but then the same applies to Norton Commander as well :D
The application most likely to cause confusion among True Gamers™ who got fed up with Windows.
(PRO TIP:
dolphinis the KDE file manager,dolphin-emuis what you really want. PRO TIP 2: To defeat the PulseAudio daemon, shoot at it until it dies)Just remove the execute bit and then it can’t run. (Or overwrite the first 4 bytes with nulls if you want to permanently disable it)
To defeat the PulseAudio daemon, shoot at it until it dies
Jack is potentially the most sensibly named.
Is pipewire pipe or wire? Only the gods are allowed to know that.
Oh, a hybrid of dolphin and an emu. What a wonderful idea.
WDYM “explorer”, is that some weird name for a file manager?
You can explore file system, but how would you dolphin it?
I always loved the logically escalation with konquerer
It kind of makes sense. You are swimming the sea of misorganized random piles of files and folders you have created.
I don’t think that app exists but there is this
Is it Klit or Kilt, the readme literally says both…
https://github.com/openlyst/klit/commit/bf1279efa747d8835b1fe718d4d65947b6c57dcc
The name is being changed.
Boooo!
well that’s no fun!
