schestowitz | And to target devices | Aug 12 12:29 |
oiaohm | How many did MS add in Windows 7 | Aug 12 12:29 |
schestowitz | Windows might be pushed aside to 'desktops' | Aug 12 12:29 |
schestowitz | Which fewer people will use | Aug 12 12:30 |
schestowitz | Many devices now run Android | Aug 12 12:30 |
schestowitz | Android competes with KDE | Aug 12 12:30 |
oiaohm | I think 6 months KDE development added more than 7 did. | Aug 12 12:30 |

schestowitz | I don't want to waste screen space on a trash can | Aug 12 12:33 |
schestowitz | So I stopped using awn | Aug 12 12:33 |
schestowitz | Kwin has better effects than OS X | Aug 12 12:33 |
schestowitz | I saw some demos and pasted here yesterday | Aug 12 12:33 |
oiaohm | I do like the look of KDE 4.5 tasked based desktop widget configs. | Aug 12 12:33 |
schestowitz | Mac OS X and Vista{}* cannot catch up | Aug 12 12:33 |
oiaohm | And are looking forward to trying it. | Aug 12 12:34 |
schestowitz | oiaohm: what's that? | Aug 12 12:34 |
schestowitz | I never got the hand oif activities | Aug 12 12:34 |
schestowitz | I just use virtual desktops | Aug 12 12:34 |
schestowitz | Activities intimidate me, seems complex and desktop zoom drives me nuts | Aug 12 12:34 |
schestowitz | The new widget manager for plasma is really nice | Aug 12 12:35 |
oiaohm | Activities have changed design completely 4.5 | Aug 12 12:35 |
oiaohm | desktop zoom bit is gone. | Aug 12 12:35 |
oiaohm | Its now you group them into tasks and change between them depending on what you are doing. | Aug 12 12:36 |
oiaohm | Now what I want to check is if it turns the widgets off or just hides them. | Aug 12 12:36 |
oiaohm | Hopefully it turns them off when they are not displayed. | Aug 12 12:36 |
schestowitz | I'm seeing new options now | Aug 12 12:36 |
schestowitz | Didn't explore 4.4 much | Aug 12 12:36 |
schestowitz | WIndows decors also got nicer | Aug 12 12:36 |
oiaohm | There was not many new options in 4.4 | Aug 12 12:37 |
schestowitz | I still can't make a wallpaper stretch across screens | Aug 12 12:37 |
schestowitz | Each is treated like separate part of plasma session | Aug 12 12:37 |
oiaohm | Yep that area is still buggy. | Aug 12 12:37 |
oiaohm | Hopefully 4.6 has multi screen sorted out. | Aug 12 12:37 |
schestowitz | oiaohm: Firefox took activities-like approach | Aug 12 12:37 |
schestowitz | They call it Tab Candy IIRC | Aug 12 12:37 |
oiaohm | Reverse | Aug 12 12:38 |
oiaohm | KDE had activities first | Aug 12 12:38 |
