Sorry, I was talking about Telegram. Should have made that more clear.

Ah, I should have mentioned that I was talking about Telegram in my original comment, too. Can't edit it anymore :/

by jhasse 9y ago
Why? You don't have Gtk+ installed?

Ah I see ;) Yeah the QR code scanning sounded like Signal / WhatsApp, never heard of that method in a Telegram app.

A smartphone isn't required for Telegram either.

by jhasse 9y ago
No, you can do the complete setup with the Telegram desktop app, but you need a device which can receive SMS or a phone call.

by jhasse 9y ago
No, you can change the number associated with your Telegram account.

by jhasse 9y ago
Telegram's Desktop client has this functionality.

A smartphone isnt required, only a telephone number for authentification.

PyQt seems to work quite well, for example fman is written in it: https://fman.io/ Regarding gamedev: Unity itself is still written in C++ and Unreal Engine uses it even more. AAA games are written mostly in C++ with Lua&#x

Not to different from most Linux DE's Ctrl+Alt+Left/Right.

Using the Windows key in GNOME Wayland you can move CSD windows around all the time, even when they hang :)
897.
by jhasse 9y ago
I think the idea is that you use Gtk+ to get the window.

by jhasse 9y ago
You can switch with Ctrl+Win+Left/Right, too.

Do you think RDP's latency on Windows is okay? Keep in mind that the latency is only for changes to the mouse cursor and some window operations. Most of the time you will actually use the content of the window which has the same latenc
