Menus in titlebar: a warning to heretics 

@Byte
The menubar is the UI strip that usually has stuff like "File, Edit, View, Search, etc".

The titlebar is the bar on top of a window. It contains things like the title of a window, an icon for the application, some buttons for maximize, minimize, close, and it is usually a drag handle for moving the window.

Most people never see these in an unorthodox confuguration unless they are a Mac user or have used Unity Desktop (both of these have a unified menubar at the top of the screen. Some absolute freaks go further, like in GNOME, where GNOME apps have a weirdly abbreviated/stunted menubar shoved in with the titlebar (usually just a single stupid hamburger menu button). This post was triggered by seeing a KDE extension to do the same thing. Unhinged. I don't want to accidentally click menus when dragging a window.

Here is the sacred inviolable rule which the various heresies will attempt to forsake:
All windows have a titlebar at their top. You can use it for moving the window and using window management operations. Below the titlebar, optionally (Or hidden until you hold Alt), is a menubar, which has a catalog of every function of the application in a ribbon across the screen which expand into submenus. In my opinion, anything other than a Titlebar atop a menu bar, per window, not in a tiling window manager, is infuriating unintuitive contrarian UI-design. It should be banished into the hills. The only screenshot below which conforms to this is xfce4, but this is also a traditional Windows desktop UI design.

I will include some screenshots with image descriptions for clarification. Heresies on display to be named and shamed:

The UI sins of Canonical's Unity Desktop Environment are being revivified and I just gotta state for the record:

Get your goddamn menu out of my titlebar. This shit is opt-in for the FREAKS out there. Y'all enjoy yourselves, but drop any aspirations of making your gimmick mainstream, please. Out, over there with the tiling wm freaks (affectionate).

@thufie okay but “gravity is cosmic yearning” goes kinda hard

Updated the Steam build with the improved vert air camera and hangtime delay. Also added a bit more experimental transition to the second rooftop in level 2 for testing. It's still not particularly fun yet, but continuing to work on the functionality. There's other passes coming. Still need to add the vert speed boost, then address a bunch of slope issues.

ssh is an obscure but widely-deployed command. It stands for Secure Snake Home and was made in the 90s to securely play snake online

I made a massively multiplayer backend for it with support for thousands of concurrent snake players

The reality of being a trans person living in a red state is being aware that at any moment I might need to become an intra-state refugee.

If anyone is fleeing Kansas and needs a safe place to stop overnight on the way east, hit me up. I'm in Missouri. I can save you a hotel stop and feed you.

this is just so immensely funny to me, men thought they could finally have "women" they can control and shape to their desires as much as they like and it still fails because its trained on how women actually act
