| schestowitz[TR3] | "why are you pointing out B10s specifically? If you are a B10 and can’t weather a financial storm from a layoff then you shouldn’t have been in that position to begin with if you don’t have the ability to save and invest appropriately given the salary. | Apr 01 04:11 |

| schestowitz[TR3] | <p>Ubuntu MATE was made an official Ubuntu flavour in 2015, and its first official long-term support (LTS) release arrived the following year. There will be no Ubuntu MATE 26.04 LTS release, however, as it did not apply for LTS qualification1 – and now we know why. </p> | Apr 01 09:05 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | <p> “As another development cycle passes, I find myself lacking the time I once had to work on Ubuntu MATE. And, to be frank, I don’t have the passion for the project that I once had. When I have time to tinker, my interests are elsewhere”, Wimpress writes. </p> | Apr 01 09:05 |

| schestowitz[TR3] | " Arvind has burnt the company to the ground to collect the insurance money. He has irrevocably damaged the lives of thousands of high-achieving American workers. He is no success story. He is nothing but a parasite. | Apr 01 16:06 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | Arvind is a traitor to his adopted country. I honestly wish he would "do the needful" and die already. All by itself that would make the world a much better place. | Apr 01 16:06 |

| schestowitz[TR3] | I understand not being a fan of Arvind, but dehumanizing him is wrong. He is a father, a husband and a leader of a Fortune 500 Company. The hate must end. He does not like to reduce headcount and I am sure it affects him as he makes difficult decisions. | Apr 01 16:06 |

| schestowitz[TR3] | <blockquote> | Apr 01 17:03 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | <p>Until Qt6, Qt's QML module, which is used extensively in the new text tool, would then recursively query all active screen objects, like comboboxes or buttons, and up and down the entire class hierarchy for accessibility features. This slowed down Krita to the point where even menus would be slow to open. </p> | Apr 01 17:03 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | <p> It was extremely tricky to figure this out, since none of the Krita developers actually use these external applications... But it should be fixed now! </p> | Apr 01 17:03 |
