  Maybe it’s a soy sauce situation. Bears are named after bears cave.

  I’ve seen typescript being used for modding using typescript-to-lua. See github.com/jordan4ibanez/forgotten-lands and github.com/RepComm/mt-api

  Sadly KDE is also trying out the “modern” style tabs in some places too:

  Right, that makes sense as well. What I was thinking is that the use of the accent colour shows which one is active, though it would probably be less confusing if this wasn’t done with an outline. See the KDE version for example:

  Screenshot of the KDE screen sharing portal, showing “Screens” and “Windows” tabs, where the selected tab has a horizontal accent colour line above it.

  Regarding keyboard navigation, I could see this working similarly to radio buttons, where the tab key selects the entire tab group, and tabs need to be navigated using the arrow keys. In this case I think it makes sense to put the focus border around only the selected option, and having the focus border follow the selected option when arrow keys are used. If this is the case, I think swapping the current version does make sense.

  If they did the exact opposite of this, I think it would look ok. If I was trying to fix this, I would probably just swap the styles of the selected and deselected states. Maybe it’s a miscommunication between designers and implementers, causing the meanings to be swapped?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What other animals "make music" together? (Specifically harmony or rhythmic coordination)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I believe birds have a very different perspective of harmonisation. What they sing might sound harmonised to them, but not to us (and vice versa).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Use WhatsApp without a smartphone?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I used waydroid for whatsapp, though any android emulator will probably work. To create the account, there was an option to verify a phone number by sending a text message (to a dumb phone with a burner sim card in my case). I use whatsapp web to read and send messages, and only have to open waydroid every few months to sign-in again.
