It hasn't. Debian has releases every 2 years, same as Ubuntu LTS, and packages are up to date at the point of release.

> Ubuntu also invests a lot into their desktop experience

Unfortunately that's been dwindling. Canonical seems to be focused on servers and virtualised instances. The desktop experience is stagnant.

If we compare Debian Stable to Ubuntu LTS, it's the same update cycle.

So Ubuntu LTS is pretty much Debian Stable with some different defaults (more opinionated, for better or worse).

Testing is the staging area for the new Stable release.

However, one thing that many people don't know is that Testing enters a package freeze every time a new Stable release is to come out. And this freeze can last anywhere between 4 to 7 months. So for that time period, it stops having frequent updates and becomes essentially a stable distro.

Both Inter and Iosevka are gorgeous fonts.

Cantarell was so, so ugly.

Last time I tried Kagi, which was a few months ago, it was 90% Google results, just with a tad of filtering and reordering.

So the trick is to drop that nonsensical AI summarizer at the top.

Kagi uses mainly Google for its search results, so that's a given.

But in this case, the discount comes with a downgrade. Still worth it for many people, and Microsoft shouldn't hide it.

I used to listen to this album all the time some good 15 years ago, but have forgot its name.

Thank you so much for this. I am so glad to find this again.

It seems to be a British article.

For European standards, it's not only cold but would be absurdly illegal.

It was a genuine question. I also suffer from eye issues and a bigger font and warmer colours really help, with no need for a bigger screen in my experience.

Absolutely no need to be rude.

Why don't you try an increased font size with the display size you already got?

Well, perhaps. But to the same extent that all the other social networks' usage numbers would also be highly inflated.

git rebase --update-refs

If one wants to keep it to vanilla git.
