The wayland project was originally started by George Soros… what did you expect?

It’s not like a judge said it’s illegal… what happened is that a huge multinational company sent a menacing letter to a developer regarding their hobby project, and the developer —understandably— decided to comply.

It’s never the disgusting species — it’s always some disgusting bipedal animal with insufficient humanity.

Well… google mainly optimizing for its own profits and gray SEO being profitable are both consequences of the prolonged monopoly google held on search.

US only (typical)

Err… KDE Connect works for me. Have you tried it?

User: “I have to waste my whole life fixing this” Dev: “you are complaining that you have to spend a few minutes”

Savage.

Most filesystems (I’d say all the relatively modern ones?) have extended attributes.

To me, saying “wayland breaks things” is putting it backwards: at this point, it should be “[thing] still doesn’t work on wayland”.

Same here (thumbleweed, kde, amd), I’ve been using wayland for around a year with zero issues.

For a minute there, the title fooled me into thinking the actual vessels were bypassing panama via rail…

You’ll need some kind of database if you want recommendations… Listenbrainz’s data is open, so you might find some self-hosted service that uses that database and local history for recomendations, but… why not just contributing your scrobbles to that awesome project?

They do require an email for signup, but IMO they are trustworthy and you can just use some anonymous email if it’s important to you to really stay anonymous.

I’m not sure how newsworthy this whole topic is

It’s right there in the first paragraph:

Apple will now require […] in a shift from the previous practice of accepting a subpoena to hand over data.

Wow! This is almost as useful as neofetch ;-)

Just reinstall :)

Copying back the files to the right partition/directory works, but if you didn’t backup the owner and permissions for each file it’s gonna be a pain to restore those.

After reinstalling, you can compare your new system with your backup to see what changes/configs you had made

Wow: they also go to great lengths to piss off their paying customers.

Anyway, I have no idea if it’s 1080p or not: I can say it looks ok on my phone’s screen, but IDK how to check what the video resolution is

You should be able to run Lineage on the shield (double check the specific model)… maybe you can try that and re-flash the stock OS if it doesn’t work for you.
