uhmm.. if we have to do that, we'll do it.. i don't see what's ironic about that.

did you install the proprietary nvidia driver ? I think ubuntu makes you install it once logged in. Nvidia won't be decent without the proprietary driver in the near term.

I find this fascinating because while I don't write much python, this is the behaviour I would assume to be correct based on everything else I've seen. I wouldn't expect it to be evaluated on every call. Definitely shows tha

I don't think soldered components would have been a big deal were the amounts enough. 32gb soldered on say 7 years ago would last you a long time. If they're gonna solder, they need to stop skimping.

yeah i finally saw that and was pretty excited. We'll just have to see how they get locked down by the other OEMs

I can't imagine someone being able to write one without being flamed on all sides because there are so many guilty parties including the potential users themselves. I don't think it helped that the core protocols were so minimal t

Most of it's really for developers IMO, but the biggest gains users is better multi-monitor handling, better security potential (so apps can't spy on each other) and the the upcoming support for HDR which will never happen on xorg

Yes, but only one looks terrible while doing it and it's not Liz. I'll never take what this guy says seriously because of it.

It does not help or explain anything about the misgendering. If you fix that, then people might take it more seriously. At the moment it looks more like you have an axe to grind.

I found this a bit more enlightening than that slide deck, although it's a bit old https://xenocara.org/Wayland_on_OpenBSD.html

That's not what most people believe though. I can both find Hamas's actions reprehensible and also think Israel has done terrible things.

I prefer gnome though. :) Cosmic is the only thing I might be interested in switching from gnome to.

modern? I'm pretty sure that's always been the case. It's a hard job and not enough people have ever been good at it.

and no one is stopping you. I just don't want to.

so you're saying there will never be a breaking change when the or bugs when the software updates? ever? That seems unlikely. I've managed my own servers many times before and that's never been the case.

I still don't have a matrix account anywhere because of that. Let alone the others. I want my own identity, but I don't wanna host a whole server. It'd be cool if fastmail offered such a service

I still have to manage the service or the code. I don't wanna worry about software updates.

I have the technical capability to host, but I don't want the responsibility or want to spend the time. I don't wanna be interrupted from my actual work or hobbies to fix up my personal hosted stuff. I just want to let someone or
