May I present to you:
Actually usable scroll bars.
Real-world use cases:
1. Scrolling up/down.
2. Scrolling left/right.
3. At-a-glance indication of position.
4. At-a-glance indication of size of current working area in proportion to the total working area.

another thing to remember is that almost all apps looked like this. So you didn't need to figure out for each so what's the scrollbar like, what's a button, what's a link, etc. Apps tended to avoid custom controls, even Photoshop, Macromedia creativity stuff, and similar.

My opinion: visible scrollbars are indeed useful, but they don't need to be that wide.
I very rarely drag the scrollbars or interact with them, since I'm using mouse wheel or keyboard shortcuts instead; and those large Windows scrollbars from the screenshot just take up too much valuable screen space.
So I vote for visible scrollbars which are very thin - mainly as a location indicator. Luckily those are available with modern GUI themes anyway.

PROCLAMA
Sento che alcuni malintenzionati traggono partito da misure militari e mosse strategiche delle truppe, per diffondere voci allarmanti ed indurre la popolazione ad atti inconsiderati, come per esempio a convegni in massa in singoli luoghi.
Mentre rammento, che gli autori e i propagatori di voci allarmanti incorrono nel rigore delle Leggi militari, esorto la popolazione a non lasciarsi fuorviare da simili rumori nรฉ indurre a siffatti passi inconsiderati, essendochรฉ si sono giร prese le piรน efficaci misure per mantenere l'ordine legale, e ristabilirlo, ovunque venisse turbato, per cui i trasgressori delle Leggi non potrebbero che imputare a sรฉ stessi le gravi conseguenze della loro contravvenzione.

Everyone always says cats are liquids, but one of the chief qualities of a liquid is that it is incompressible.
But one quick image search for "If I Fits, I Sits" reveals that cats are far from incompressible and are thus something closer to a gas.

they are felifluids. Not quite solid, liquid, or gas, but their own thing with their own laws of physics 
This is true, and they do exhibit some entirely unique physical properties such as a tendency to coalesce *more* densely in areas of higher heat.

"As for testing: We have "unstable" and "stable" repos, that is already more than a few volunteers can cope with."
Testing can (and should) be fully automate-able. Maybe 'plugwash' (@d.o.), the sole maintainer of raspbian.org repos, can help with that?

Sure, that could be automated. But Mobian is just a few packages on top of stock Debian testing. A 3 stage distro-setup is not really going to provide a lot of added value. The diff between mobian "unstable" and "stable" is just not that big: https://packages.mobian-project.org/

I've made myself a new pair of Rosalia Stockings.
It's my second pair (a few years after the first, because I got distracted), and this time I've solved the fitting issues with my first pair, so now I can make ALL THE STOCKINGS!
Mostly the pattern is symmetrical for the right and left leg, but my feet are very much not symmetrical, so I changed the stocking to be more pointy rather than square-toed.
It's made from the leftovers of a cut of black cotton jersey that I was using for something that was supposed to be a nightgown, but is looking more like a little black dress (yay for drafting my own patterns and always having predictable results :D )
Also, I've finally found a use for at least two repeats of a piece of plastic lace that I got for free from a shop more than a decade ago because it had been discolored by the sun (at strategically placed positions that made it harder to use in any kind of length). Also, have I mentioned โplasticโ? I wanted to use it for something, but it's scratchy enough that I didn't want it anywhere where it could touch my skin. Here it's safely on the outside, it helps distinguish this pair from future pairs I'm going to make, and it looks nice.

I haz a #bustle cage!
(picture of a bustle cage in off-white fabric with lace over the boning and box pleats at the bottom)
There is a gaping hole at the top because the top row of boning is a bit too high and I didn't have enough fabric to pleat it correctly to the waistband; I will probably add a few more tapes to keep that bit of fabric taut.
It's based on https://adamselindisdress.wordpress.com/2014/06/21/how-to-make-a-victorian-cage-bustle/ (and the instructions on the book by the same author), but I've added tapes on the inside instead of a full inside back piece so that the width can be regulated, but most importantly making it was much easier, as even the second side seam is done on a flat cage instead of a 3D shape.

Oh, and my 1890s skirt fit on top of it, so by adding a draped overskirt I may be able to change enough of the look that I may be able to get the look of two eras with just one skirt (which, considering the price of that fabric, is a very nice thing :D )

ELI5 why crypto is a Ponzi scheme but everything else non-perishable you can buy and sell isn't
also, how would you make a decentralised censorship-resistant digital currency that doesn't have those properties?
IMO many financial instruments other than cryptocurrencies are ponzi schemes as well, or at least speculative bubbles. It may as well be impossible to create a censorship-resistant digital currenct that isn't prone to become such a bubble, but I don't know enough abiut economy to be able to tell.
Maybe calling all cryptocurrencies a ponzi scheme is an exaggeration, but calling it "crypto" isn't good either.

I remember the day the aliens came. All of them, at once. Their varied spacecraft hovered above every population centre. Then they sent their broadcast.
โWeโre really sorry. You probably wondered where we all were. It turns out that someone incorrectly typed your coordinates into our planetary directory.โ

The biggest change for users is SASL support: A new field in the Configure ad-hoc command lets you set a password that will be used to authenticate to the nick service, instead of using the cumbersome NickServ method.

That's the fork of valentina, right? https://valentinaproject.bitbucket.io/
I had been using it before the DRAMA, and now it's even in Debian (and it keeps being developed).

I need to stop starting new projects (yeah, right, like that's going to happen).

Da fare: mettere in giro la voce che fare i caroselli con le auto per le vittorie alle semifinali (specialmente se in giorno infrasettimanale) porta sfiga e fa poi perdere l'occasione di farlo alla finale.
