Almost any gpu. I run gnome on wayland with 4k just fine at the max refresh rate of my monitor on 5 year old intel graphics. It's not even a slight stretch.

Comcast is a local monopoly in my area. As such, users have little recourse when Comcast abuses their power. I think given what we know about Comcast it is fair to assume that they would misuse all traffic on their network if it makes the

I was confused by that for a minute, but I don’t think it is in anyway related to the rest of the comment. He was just pointing out a mistake and making a separate point about being a good open source Citizen

Firefox Lockwise and firefox sync are really good synchronizing tools. Between the two services, they do a good job of keeping my desktop, laptop, iPad and Android phone in sync. Since lockwise integrates with Android and ios' built in

"Design" was in the title but I was hoping for a development tutorial. I know its just gtk, but I'm hoping someone with the project can put together a very simple python or js tutorial for making simple apps.

- are there ever times when there aren’t enough charging stations free due to other Teslas tying them up? It happens. I use them maybe once a month for the last year and I've only had to wait once. It cost me 10 minutes or so. If yo

I don't think it is intended to be a business or business model. I think its just about the technology. It aims to provide scalable distribution of video without a huge youtube-size infrastructure. Maybe you can build a business mode

I would love to see recommendations for articles like this but for b2b pricing. I suspect there are better ways to price professional buyers.

I agree. That was my first reaction and I suspect most visitors will be in the same boat. I like the simple design of the landing page and in the context of a hackernews visitor, I might click through to see more of the project. I almost

I think lumina is based on Fluxbox, which is very similar to openbox. Lumina isn't a currently window manager, it you wouldn't compare it dirrectly. Think of it as openbox plus a a start-menu and system tools like a network mana

I assume Canonical wants to have some influence with Gnome and Wayland going forward. The nature of open source, and just working with groups of people for that matter, is that you have to build consensus before trying to push changes, esp

The http://puri.sm people are trying to make an open source phone running their distro PureOS (based on debian). They even said on a podcast that they have removed or mitigated the binary blob issues. Apparently they are alrea

It is fair to say that certain software doesn't run (or run well) on Linux. It is also fair to say that most people don't want to learn how to use new software especially when they already know something else that works. I think

Is that a troll? Linux has tons of native applications in just about every category. It is absolutely packed with alternatives. I don't use Linux daily anymore, but I almost never had an issue finding programs for what ever task I w

It probably works for the listners, the direct advertisers and the podcasters. It doesn't work for the advertising industry as a whole because the middle men are cut out. They want a cut and will work really hard to take it. L

I don't want to put words in his mouth, but you can certainly argue that hosting companies shouldn't censor or moderate their customers without rising to the level of a legal requirement.
