because that extension contains program code to add the desktop icon feature. Just as other extensions add program code for a taskbar or whatever else you have as an example. It's exactly the same concept that web browser extensions use. They have code to do things that aren't built into the web browsers too.

Extensions aren't just tweaking pre-existing settings. They're adding functionality that doesn't exist in the first place.

Interesting.

That's what I'm thinking when I hear the word "extensions" However, since it's so featherlight I thought Gnome were just dicks once again

I tried making a gnome extension once but documentation is really lacking some love.

We need more Wayland in our lives

Yuck wayland

X11 is getting slowly outdated

the biggest problem with wayland adoption will be that most apps are adapted to X11

And it doesn't help that wayland is documented badly

Half of the things you find on it are obsolete already

Luckily reactos needs neither x11 or wayland

I tried it on kde4 times, it was always a PoC.... For KF5 it would need the whole porting work again, although the advent of Wayland might have made it more independent of X

Wtf is an PoC?

Proof of concept

So how to get KDE Plasma 5 (NT port) working again on ROS w/o implementations for X11 or Wayland?

I guess no one is trying it

KDE on windows/Mac is focused on apps

One would need to try compiling and debugging it to get something working

So how to get KDE Plasma 5 (NT port) working again on ROS w/o implementations for X11 or Wayland?

use linux

use linux

Or better, don't use kde ;)

eh, everyone can have their own opinion

already a solved "problem"

Even proper Windows is flaky with Plasma's NT port

the biggest problem with wayland adoption will be that most apps are adapted to X11

The biggest problem is the lack of proprietary nVidia support

Waddup Gordon

omg what are you doing here

The biggest problem is the lack of proprietary nVidia support

Screw nvidia

you mean novideo

Yes

True

Yup

Mostly concerning for businesses But for us, we shouldn't care They aren't documented for us consumers

Sure, hence why it's recommended to disable them for gaming, and serious CPU bound apps

The question is, if ryzen 1st gen is old enough for ROS, or way too new

Way too new for it to work properly

No

I believe even 3rd gen Ryzen worked

Well duh

ReactOS doesn't even benefit from multiple cores, from 64bit, for more than 3.25GB of RAM, from SATA 3, from NVMe, from USB 3 and so on Heck even a Core2 is enough

Everything is enough, we might need some kernel progress to get a bit more functions

You mean multi-processor? MP is much harder than 64-bit

Yes, I meant MP

use linux

Linux and FreeBSD☺️ KDE stuff in FreeBSD distro are deadly stable👍🏻

good for you

Nowadays, what are you using ReactOS?

Like server, like desktop, first OS, old PC, game playing, for development purposes...?

I know how u feel

I cant wait for that day someone says

I use ReactOS with chocolatey as my package manager as dev machine

in a nuclear fusion reactor

and it is responsible for controlling the plants

Like server, like desktop, first OS, old PC, game playing, for development purposes...?

Memes and YouTube videos Basically "sandboxed wine"

By the way, is it me or 0.4.13 RC 32 is so much better than 0.4.12 ? Like a lot more things work Some services issues btw

and it is responsible for controlling the plants

Power plants aren't Win32 powered

your inability to see a joke is frightening.

makes me sad.

your inability to see a joke is frightening.

Well, I'm aware of that stuff However, you aren't helping me by not putting indications like stickers and GIFs

what a disappointment

If I say "autism-based quirk" I'm gonna get assholed

might explain a whole lot then

Yes. Even in real hardware.
