Yes, it's fake. Cats hate it and instantly back up when something is on their face. In this picture you can see the whiskers somehow poking through the pancake on the right. It's a very basic photoshop.

If you switch your view from the level of the organism to the level of the gene, genes do have backups everywhere. You could call every instance of a gene in every organism a 'backup' of the others.

As individual organisms, we also tend to look at genes and evolution from the perspectives of individuals. But for genes already established in a population, preserving any single genome (carried by a single individual) isn't very important. Genes work instead to increase their overall frequency throughout the population.

So to adapt the technological metaphor, maybe you're better off looking at the entire gene pool as your system instead of the organism.

I went through the same on Fedora, and it was never quite right. On Bazzite it was preinstalled and worked perfectly, just fyi.

Are homonyms/homophones more common in English? As a non-native speaker, I remember the vowel shift causing more trouble at first. Also, rules for shortening/combining words can be tricky. They're/their is the obvious example. But then there's won't, where the apostrophe doesn't simply substitute a letter in two words that work independently. And it's/its is very confusing, as possessive is normally also marked with 's. Is/are is a whole new thing if your native language doesn't distinguish.

The picture looks like AI. Fucking scary as fuck.

Oh look, incisor straight into molar and weird lip lump. How about that.

Some mechanics are just subjectively annoying, especially in PvE. Enemies healing themselves is one. Enemies stunning the player is another. In MY amazing dev company we would have none of that.

I would be more interested in a budget-camera option if it meant price reduction and no bump. If that were also the one not solely marketed in the hands of 22-year-old fashionistas, all the better.

 
 

I'm trying to reassign the side buttons on my logitech superlight to keyboard input. However, the side buttons default to to back/forward.

The settings window for reassigning mouse input is in a 'forwarded' position, so clicking the 'back' button on the mouse results in the settings window moving back a menu level instead of reassigning the button.

The 'forward' mouse button can be reassigned, though, as there is nothing 'ahead' in the menu.

I've previously had luck reassigning the side buttons using input-remapper, but I'm on tumbleweed which doesn't have input-remapper in its repositories.

Is there a way around this UI quirk in KDE that will allow me to reassign the 'back' button on my mouse?

Or have any other tumbleweed users had luck reassigning both mouse side buttons on KDE?

One other approach I can think of is if it's possible to disable/supress the default forward/back behavior in KDE.
