minus-squareRoboRay@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down2·edit-22 年前 you can just type what program you want. It’s not year 2000 anymore. Typing the name of the program you want is a 1970s thing.
minus-squareRoboRay@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 年前Only a bit tongue-in-cheek… :) Sometimes typing something is better, sometimes just clicking a button is better. It just depends on… too many things to list.
minus-squareTCB13@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·2 年前Yes ironically desktop environments “revolutionized” computing by not having a way to type what program we want to then, after decades re-introduce that :D
minus-squaresping@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 年前Yep, because we realized the pointy clicky hand-eye coordination paradigm is often not an improvement.
minus-squareEmperor Palpapeen@mastodon.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 年前@TCB13 @RoboRay I don’t remember a distro or DE that lacked a command line. Hell, even windows never actually abandoned it.
minus-squareRoboRay@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-22 年前Sure, which makes it curious that the previous comment implied that it’s a new thing since 2000 when it’s actually a very old thing.
