this is why we need more "X YouTuber tries Y Linux thing".
Just like when LTT did the Linux Challenge, things progress fast whenever that happens.
I just discovered the panel colorizer widget, thought might suggest you to try it out if you want even more theming options on a panel.
I agree though, the way settings for both the panel settings and widgets settings is clunky, I dislike how there is a state where you can be editing widgets and not the panel, like just show me all the options when I enter edit mode on the panel.
I have dreamt for a long time about having a house like one of these:

The iPod touch was the first Apple product I bought with my own money in 2010. While there are many things I could say, I’ll just mention how cool these Flash-based web ads were for it.
(I’ll also mention that this was for my ninth birthday and I did not have a bank card, so the specialist had to count a bunch of loose change and singles up to $200 or whatever it was)

Activitypub or Atproto ... one item that both Mastodon have in common with Bluesky is amount of "spam" links and accounts boosting those "spammy" accounts
Several "award winning art / photo" profiles I saw had 5 or more links including their pinned post
Win goes to Bluesky since they seem to have better control of that ... for now

"Anthony (Tony) Epstein, co-discoverer of the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), was the founding father of research into the part that viruses play in the development of human cancers. Today, seven types of viral infection — more than one of which can be prevented by vaccination — are known to cause specific cancers in people. Collectively, virus-associated tumours account for up to 15% of cancer cases globally each year. Yet, when Epstein began his research in the early 1960s, the concept of a link between viruses and human cancer was deeply unfashionable. Epstein’s discovery has had an enormous influence on the direction of cancer research, from underlying mechanisms to new prospects for prevention."

Just FYI, with Threads becoming part of the Fediverse, both this account and the one on Threads (threads.net/@gaming0nlinux) will stick.
I think giving people the option to directly follow on either platform is the best bet. Options are nice right?
Liam @ GamingOnLinux / Steam Deck News (@gaming0nlinux) on Threads
Linux and Steam Deck News + Spicy Opinions. One person mostly. Content creator of many forms. Personal on @PlymSquid. 1.1K Followers.Threads
Hm I dont know. In the long run a third path might be to have an own fedi instance running on the gaming on linux infra and push to threads and the fedi.
Like @news@gamingonlinux.com that serves both with just the same account and at best the comments of the social media posting are shared with the comments on the GoL site.
I mean thats what the fediverse is all about - not to copy things all over the place, but post them once and find+react to them everywhere. 
For example we have wordpress for now that just can act as fediverse instance and do essentially this and I imagine the services that provide this functionality to grow, once threads and tumblr are able to receive content from the fediverse.
What I say is that "in future" (that is not right now for obvios reasons) there might be an opportunity to have an option to push to a lot more services via just one fediverse account.

This is not possible right now. Threads is currently only read-only from this side and tumblr not even integrated at all.

EU’s use of Microsoft 365 found to breach data protection rules
An investigation into the European Union’s use of Microsoft 365 has found the Commission breached the bloc’s data protection rules through its use of the cloud-based productivity software.
The Commission. (27 commissioners.) Not the entirety of the Union.
Kinda might want to clarify that.

Did you know that #Germans have a LOT of #superstitions about #bread?
In the olden days, when bread was baked at home, bad luck would seep into the bread when one cursed while baking.
And if the loaf would be placed over the table's edge, sickness would soon enter the house.
A loaf placed upside down would sway, because the poor souls would try to turn it, & if the head of the house cut the bread crookedly, then he had just lied...
haha yeah that's the catch 😀
But no, you can make a soda bread (a traditional unyeasted bread) or offer the bread that failed to rise, but who knows what they'll think of that?
Putting all of my federated Threads accounts into a Mastodon list. And just like that, one of the benefits of Threads supporting the Fediverse is happening in real-time.
I now can view them all in one Mastodon list view TODAY, or add them to multiple lists TODAY, even while lists are a feature not yet here on Threads.
Fediverse Threads support for the win.
