Generally, my view is if it's an electron app it's going to be a crap user experience.

You are talking as if all people can make a native app with the same knowledge and amount of effort as it would take to develop a website.

No, not all people can't do that, but I think they should learn. It will lead to better results. Or are you saying that web developers are inherently incapable of developing native applications?

Well that kills that idea then.

I think it's nice to have traditions inside areas of research, and if somebody said "let's retire the Utah teapot. It's too simple a construct and has no bearing anymore" I'd be opposed.

Similar with "Lenna". Is it a good test image? Not anymore, but if somebody wants to include it as tradition then let them. It hurts no one. Nobody is making money off it. Most people just know it as an image that's been in many seminal graphics papers they want to emulate, but even if they do know it as being from an issue of Playboy, why is that a problem?

I'm not angry about it. I'm not going to die on any hill about it. I just see it as pointless and infantile for the IEEE to refuse papers over something so trivial.

I don't know what they sell these days but I've had a couple of Samsung mono lasers that were cheap ($150ish) and lasted decades of infrequent use.

Most people use it as a search engine now that Google is shit.

Just don't think about her left arm.

If my hands have blood all over them, I'm not telling anybody. I'm running away before anyone finds me.

I think the AMD hardware is a big part of things being a good experience.

PopOS, Mint, Ubuntu. All have that mission.

Honestly I'm at a bit of a loss what people think needs to become simpler.

I don't know how much was charisma, and how much was the workforce looking for the success that comes from commercialising the tech over a non-profit entity giving the tech away. Not everyone is an altruist.

Twitter was never non-profit with a founding charter. Two very different organisations.
