Nucella lima shell
The shell size varies between 19 mm and 51 mm.
gollark: MultiMC is from the AUR, and recompiling it didn't fix it.
gollark: I tried downgrading Qt but it turns out downgrading is hard and I can't make it work right.
gollark: Lemmmy, you can Linux, right? Do you have any idea why the Qt-using applications (MultiMC, Calibre) I have appear to be segfaulting and/or what I can do about it?
gollark: KDE is resource-intensive, apparently, and LXDE is good enough.
gollark: Hmm. This is very annoying. 5.14.0 doesn't work and 5.13.whatever causes problems because it's a different version to what the applications want.
