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.
Good response to be honest. :)
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.
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
Yep, because we realized the pointy clicky hand-eye coordination paradigm is often not an improvement.
@TCB13@RoboRay I don’t remember a distro or DE that lacked a command line. Hell, even windows never actually abandoned it.
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.
