Love/hate systemd as I might, it's been rock solid everywhere I've used it, and I've used it heavily. It has it's quirks, as does the init-scripts that came before, and launchd on OSX (not sure what the modern equiv

I got the same email on the same date. Unsubscribe told me it was from the 'important announcements' list - I fail to see how this could possibly fall into that category. I guess I can't have important announcements from Prot

Epiphany (aka Gnome Web) on Linux shows this correctly, as expected for a Webkit-based browser.

Thanks for confirming, I look forward to one day getting Wayland to run properly for me, but that's a whole different story. I'm just glad that middle click paste works and that it's not really an 'X11-ism'.

I can run 99% on Linux + AMD + X11, on Ubuntu 24. The only problematic one is Witcher 3 which insists on Wayland which breaks everything else. Even the UT5 titles work well enough, but then again our gaming is not your gaming and you might

Having failed to get Wayland working on Debian Trixie with a 1050 Ti as an upgrade from X11, I've given up for now and will try again when I switch to AMD. This is a workstation not used for games so it'd be good to have Wayland w

Maybe not, but they are approaching it. I wouldn't use it for anything funded with my own cash, I no longer recommend it as a first choice, but I'm not suggesting it gets replaced yet. It's somewhat in the 'legacy tech&#

If it doesn't run on Windows, how can it call itself Winamp? Macosamp makes more sense.

It's a clone with a stolen name, and given that it's not been abandoned it's likely they'll come down on this like a bag of hammers.

The problem for me was more a software issue than hardware or cost. It (Quest 2) just felt awkward, the software selection was meh, IPD bad for me, resolution only so-so, but most of all it felt isolated from the rest of my gear. I've

I have a Quest 2 that I don't care for, so it's caught me somewhat offguard how much I want this. The whole set please. I thought I'd just want the controller, but everything here looks exciting to me.

Rumour has it that after the Crowdstrike fiasco future versions of Windows won't allow kernel level modules. I can only hope this is true if it kills off the main reason titles don't work on Linux as a side effect. I'd have b

They do this, only using the Latin alphabet for brand names etc. For example, pravda.ru spells Finland as Финляндия (Edit: I misread your comment, fixed mine, I agree with you)
