Since when did “scratch-built” become equivalent to “built from scratch”? As a non-native English speaker, do I need some more English classes?

Cosmic looks very interesting and very unfinished. Maybe it is the teal accent, maybe it is janky transitions. Nonetheless, I’m happy to see some fresh Linux Desktop Environment.

cmrdporcupine•1mo ago
As a native English speaker I can tell you it's not normal phrasing. You're not taking crazy pills.

As a native English Speaker, "scratch-built" is definitely not a common term (I was confused when I read this).

mhanberg•1mo ago
It's somewhat common in the context of cooking. A recipe may refer to something as "scratch made" when its "made from scratch".

In this case, its an extension of the phrase but using the word built instead of made.

HansardExpert•1mo ago
They are both equivalent. Scratch-built is perfectly cromulant.

My father used to talk about 'Scratch-building' his WWII dioramas and model vehicles/tanks. While you could use a phrase like 'Scratch-cooked' rather than cooking from scratch, I've never heard but someone would not think the former meant something different to the latter.

tracker1•1mo ago
I've heard "scratch-made" applied to cooking before.
woleium•1mo ago
I see what you did there. (cromulant was coined in a Simpsons episode)

> Cosmic provides a plethora of features that I don’t really use in my day-to-day computer operations

That kind of defeats the purpose of the distro (or a big part of it at least).

tracker1•1mo ago
Well, they provide for both floating/pinning windows as well as a tiling behavior. You aren't necessarily going to use both, or switch between the two (though you can in different workspaces easily).

Giving any choices defeats the purpose of a distro?

COSMIC seems cool, though I don't love the visual style myself. Someone I know who used it ran into the problem that it mounts network shares using a mount unit, which is good, but it doesn't add nofail, which is really really bad, because it means you hang at boot waiting for it to mount. I'm sure they'll figure this out, but I really have been wondering where to report this issue specifically; it's hard because I don't know where it actually exists in the code (and I couldn't find it quickly.)
