There seems to be issues with Wayland graphics driver in Fedora 37, after switching to X the issue went away.

You were tough. I tried to switch a couple of times during the past decade or so, but had to give up due to various reason. This time I guess I might have to crack through as M$ really really pissed me off.

RHEL/CentOS are meant for servers/workstations aiming to run 24x7, and most of the instances might not event have GUI installed. I can understand why those problems were there as end user experience wasn't the priority. And y

I'm not sure which year you are from. Over ten years ago, it was definitely the case. But now, Windows 10, especially 11, bothers me much much more than Linux. Just in around 3 months, this is already the 2nd time that Windows 11 screw

You know, copper network is not a great option technically, but nothing better to just exhaust the budget.

It's true for any shared media as the bandwidth is limited, thus wireless is really only suitable for where fiber is not a viable solution.

I'm one the verge. I switched all my secondary devices to Linux and all of a sudden, I hardly heard fans running any more. I literally had enough with Russian roulette like Windows Update, all kinds of spyware for a long time but it&#x

It has been the case for over a decade now. I used to start from page 10 when using other search engines, but Google is not any better now.

I cannot have such BS any more. So I deployed something on my home server and exposed it on a port just above 10000. And I tried to access it with Chrome, and it was blocked coz it on an unusual port!! So obviously one of them had to go. So

Everyone's mileage varies. I had exactly the same feeling until recent couple of year.

Yep, I get that lots of software are Windows only. I was super happy with Visual Studio until recently a couple of years, basicly when JS component started to replace those native ones. It took only 80MB of memory when loaded a fairly big s

Maybe it's time to ditch Windows once and for all. Put spywares aside, the reliability is ridiculous. Bought a surface pro for kids, and had to clean wipe Windows 11 less than a week as they pushed an update causing external display to

Seriously, why bother? Windows 11 is beyond redemption.

Various issues, drivers, apps, updates etc.. I actually managed to get it working perfectly for me at some stage but a power outage ruined that. I probably still can get it working perfectly if I want to get down the rabbit hole. But unfort

I have HDDs from around 20 years ago and hardly touched in last 10 years, which are still good (able to read out without any issues, random checksum are good, but not all files validated). But my optical backs were completely a disaster. Ju

Too bad, it's a chicken or egg issue. People won't use it unless it fits their needs. Have kept an eye on it for over two decades now, I still have an active FreeBSD installation but unfortunately, it's nowhere near usable as

I care less and less about that. Visual Stutio is the only reason that I still use Windows now and it becomes weaker and weaker. So yesterday, I spent over 10 minutes just to find out that VS failed to terminate a process it launched in deb

I don't know about others, but for me, I don't really see a reason to move to other OSes if everything just works like they used to be in Windows 7. But Windows 10 and Windows 11 just made me trying hard to find excuses not to mov

Since Windows 10, updates are just like Russian roulettes, you will never know what they are going to fix or break. Making it worse, you don't have control when to update any more. I still remember what on the face one of my colleague

Playing games can hardly have any consequences, but driving does. All those buttons/knobs are designed to minimize the chance you have to look for something. Virtual keys somehow alleviate a little bit as there are reduced physical key

Wehn driving, you don't want to move your sight away from the road. Thus, muscle memory is super important. But touch screen simply rendered all that useless.

I don't want to touch vehicles with full touch screens with a 10 feet long pole. Touch screens on cars just cheaper, look fancier but unusable at all.

Battery is not even half of the problem of EV. How to charge them in minutes is the biggest problem, and no viable solution anytime soon.

by mrjin 4y ago
What you want might never happen, especially the charging time part. If you pull out a calculator, you will find out the current required （under domestic voltage) to charge a 80kWh battery in 2 hours is already staggering. In 3-4 minutes at

We don't understand how we understand. Then how can we expect something we created to understand?

It's nothing new. Most of us might think one instruction will only do one thing but it's actully much more complicated than that. Instructions can actually be broken down to multiple steps and some of those are in common. And thus

>there was no inflation. Of course, there was inflation but could not be reflected by CPI. Just look at the asset prices, can you explain the dramatic increasing? In the past, printed money mostly went to rich people and made asset price
