    The beauty of an open system is that you can do pretty much whatever you want in it.

    how does this work, is this using WINE with ReactOS components and Windows 7 components or something similar?

      tl;dr of how this clusterfuck works: this is effectively just x11 forwarding an x server from windows to linux. the fun part is a) making gnome run with an already existing window manager (namely dwm.exe lol), b) making gnome run over x11 forwarding (it is Not a fan, last time it tried running gnome on windows this is what broke it and made it quit trying), and c) actually ripping out parts of the gnome compositor again to make dwm instead of gnome render window decorations to achieve ✨️aero gnome✨️

    it using third person got me so confused. like i’d expect someone to use third person with their name at least once so that it’s clear who “it” is (or any other pronoun, actually). also putting less common pronouns in the name is very helpful

        Yeah, but I think it is speaking in first person, about itself. So it should be “I saw” and “I think”, regardless of its pronouns in third person.

          Some people, for reasons I can only speculate on, don’t like speaking in first person singular. In most cases that I’ve seen, they use “we”. I don’t necessarily agree with the practice from a linguistic perspective, the English language is already a garbage fire as it is without introducing more ambivalent speech… but then I also want to go back to using “thou” for second person singular, so I’m probably not qualified to speak on the matter.

            Nope. Thou is just superior. The fact there is no distinction between second person singular and plural is fucked up.

                  Hmm, i tried to make a joke about thanking both parent posters, which makes them a plural noun, which makes thou wrong as it is only used for singular.

                  But i guess i was wrong in an orthogonal dimension as well.

        *its (not it’s)

        Edit: actually the whole thing should be:

        its pronouns are it/it

        (first “it” corresponds to “he”, “she”,

        second “it” corresponds to “him”, “her”)

          nah second it would also correspond to he or she

          “that’s cute but him thinks gnome also deserves some love too” doesn’t work. it just has to correspond to he or she in the second one

            I meant in the preferred pronouns “it/it”. A man’s pronouns are “he/him”, a woman’s pronouns are “she/her”, so an object’s pronouns would be “it/it” as opposed to “it/its”.
