Shufei 🧮<p>Right. I have styled needful things in <a href="https://merveilles.town/tags/GTK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GTK</span></a> 2, 3, 4. Each css in ~/.config has been copied to /root/.config too. This I believe is the “correct” way to style my system apart from full themes. <a href="https://merveilles.town/tags/Qt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Qt</span></a> should obey these stylings in ~/.config, no?

Veronica Olsen 🏳️‍🌈🇳🇴🌻<p>Phew. Spent a lot of time today, with help from one of the contributors, figuring out why the GUI of the Qt6-based beta of the next <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@novelwriter" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>novelwriter</span></a></span> release freezes for a second or two with a white dialog when starting up on Windows.</p><p>Turns out the Unicode thin space (U+2009) does not exist in some Windows fonts, like Verdana.

Random Geek<p>"If you type any made-up phrase, followed by "meaning", into Google search, it will make up an explanation."</p><p>I do that all the time.
