gnome on redhat or fedora... ortherwise, no gnome.. I tried to use gnome on Suse and it wasn't too fun.. It seems like Redhat/Fedora was built for gnome and optimized gnome a little, and so its perfect..

However, KDE is just annyoing.. too much flash, too much craziness, its not clean and happy and productive.

but anything is better than windows. :)

flux is great, but it seems to be missing some things that i need. Gnome works great, expecially on a 1024x768 machine.  But hey im biased, ive always like gnomes.

Couldn't agree more

I finally got gnome to work on slack :)

I didn't vote, as imho it's a tie:

Gnome looks nicer, is much more organized, has nifty things like dbus-support etc, but it's a bit unstable (at least for me, i don't know why)

KDE is very consistent and has a lot of features and everything is nicely integrated, but it isn't very organized (program- and menu-wise).

I am in love with the K.

I used to be gnome powered for a while, but since I switched 100% to Linux last year for I no longer had Windows requirements, I have been using KDE. I think it is the most complete and well integrated solution available. It provides every single little thing I coud think of, and is well integrated.

And the second you add gtk-qt, everything looks unified.

KDE 3.4 is amazing and I can't wait for Kubuntu to work better so I can ditch Gnome. Gnome is nice and clean, but KDE gives me all the features I want.

That's exactly why I don't like KDE too much :p I get lost in the menus and the control panel :p But I like how 3.4 looks. I don't think its really faster, but the look n feel helps a lot :p (For example, my windows is slow crap and it can take ages for an app. to run... but I still think that windows 'feels' faster than gnome).

In ubuntu (hoary) Firefox looks ugly using KDE... does anybody know how to change this?

yes , install some theme to firefox

like this for example > http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=11442    :p

Nice theme :p However, I found out that I have to run "gnome-settings-daemon", that way Gtk apps. will apply gnome settings and won't look bad :p I don't know why I have to do this, from Gnome, kde apps look OK (except some like skype or the menu in opera)

    • Anybody that thinks flying cars were possible are idiots. Everyone would basically need a pilot licence, can you imagine how insane and dangerous that would be, people can barely handle driving on land safely right now.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
