GF: “Did you always have a gun?”

Anon: “I always carry”

GF: “Even on our dates? Did you think I was gonna rob you or something?”

Anon: “Muggers don’t wait until it’s convienient for you to get robbed, you know?”

GF: “Oh that makes sense.”

Man, there is a LOT of people in this thread hoping to normalize this, or pretend it will happen anyway, or that it’s ‘not really a PR disaster’, or that people will ignore it, or-

Go make your money elsewhere, christ.

Carpenter bees aren’t a pest they’re a legitimate danger to life. Not directly like murder hornets are, but indirectly, because they destroy load bearing infrastructure.

That didn’t stop everyone from jumping on GPT, either.

That definitely sounds like you just made that up, considering I was around then.

You say that like a significant number of these Republican’s donors would not salivate over being able to fracture the US from world politics like that.

…Russia. I’m talking about Russia, if you’re unaware.

is it 30 days BEFORE april 15th, or 30 days AFTER april 15th?

Honestly, matrix is incredibly user unfriendly. It needs to stop being held up as an option for these sort of things.

Frankly speaking, whether or not a hitman was hired, Boeing is culpable.

Organizing a concerted effort to drive someone to suicide is just as illegal as murdering them. End of story.

Because every other dev here is saying that on-premise work isn’t actually needed for for devkits, and this guy has a definite vibe of “man, if I don’t defend the multi-million dollar game corporations, no one else will!”

Dude is a trumpet, I’ve seen him elsewhere trying to shill.

Because the entire design of it is to mathematically prevent you from having the option to hack or block the ads. THe way to get around it is to… not use chrome.

looks like a cherry starburst to me, which are pretty common to have the wrapper stick to them.

There’s GUI front-ends for things like apt that are pre-installed on many Linux distros, e.g. Ubuntu. And windows has been moving towards trying to have the same thing. And yes, also they’ve got an apt of their own.

You… can? That’s been a thing for ages. Windows has literally been taking queues from Linux on how to makes installing packages and apps easier.

The reason I care about the technical implementation shortcomings is because they don’t go away. They don’t magically fix themselves over time, they snowball, especially when the maintainers refuse to admit they’re shortcomings and insist on doubling down on them.

As time goes on, new functionality and technologies are going to emerge, and you need to be able to fold those, cleanly and reliably, into your codebase. And frankly, wayland’s devs are having trouble getting past and even current technologies implemented cleanly into their codebase, because they’re made architectural decisions that exclude those technologies. This is just going to be more and more of a problem as time goes on, imo.

• Screen recording CAN work… if client devs go out of their way to work around wayland, like OBS did. That is not a long term solution, or even a solution we should be encouraging.
• yes
• personally I have crashes on wayland, none on X11. even when x11 does crash though, you just drop to terminal. Whatever is locking your system up, it might not actually be X11 itself. Wayland, you do actually have to reboot, it’s a standing architectural issue.
• nice
• I’m on ubuntu gnome w/ AMD gpu, and they straight up do not work. You can set a global hotkey for the OS/wayland itself, but there is no way to set a global hotkey for/from a program, e.g. set a key combo for ‘clip last 30 seconds’ like I can in X11. Again, conscious design decision by wayland devs that breaks a lot of use cases. I think there’s some third party plugin for wayland that fixes this, but I shouldn’t need the wayland equivalent of nexusmods to get my window manager working. This ain’t skyrim. :P
• sleep and hibernate are pretty close to the same thing- sleep mode saves your current state to RAM, hibernate stores it to disk. hibernate uses less power draw and recovers cleanly from power loss. These days I think most front-ends call ‘hibernate’ sleep, and don’t actually provide sleep as an option, because it’s imo better. I meant hibernate, and I should have clarified, because linux does actually allow you to pick and choose.
• some appimages work, but it’s because they work around wayland. These days there’s a package you can include in your app image to hep with that iirc, but again that’s kind of dumb.
• redshift is f.lux. Basically, eye strain relief.
• toolbars, utilities, etc. For example, I have a program that adds an overlay to my screen for discord, so when someone talks in discord their avatar pops up on the left side of my primary screen. This not only doesn’t work in wayland, it can never work in wayland, because it intentionally refuses to allow programs to set their own screen position, control whether they appear over other things, or even know where on the screen they are on the screen.
• GUI applications with sudo, yes. Basically, in wayland sudo has to pipe the password arround because it doesn’t support SUDO_ASKPASS, so they work around it by piping it around with a generated shell. This vastly increases the attack surface of sudo: https://github.com/linuxhw/hw-probe-pyqt5-gui/commit/eb2d6e5145fb8571414bda57676084b7f13b94e5#diff-23cb15995f1502beebb38433bfa83204a5f45b376eaf88e2e41a0d8a1cd44722R290

Ubuntu Gnome on AMD, actually.

screen recording/sharing, automation, it’s inherant fragmentation because it decided that basic window server functionality should be implemented on the DE, basically every driver but a super small subset of drivers for devices the devs care about which do not include nvidia drivers which are a huge portion of the userbase, the absolutely ridiculous architectural choices that intentionally blocks basic functionality, and furthermore causes a crash to completely freeze your computer which forces restart, a complete failure to understand standard monitor EDID, and a refusal to allow you to set them yourself (to this day my monitor, a bog standard 144hz 1440p LG monitor, is not supported by wayland), no global hotkeys, broken sleep mode, breaks appimages entirely, no redshift, the developers made sweeping design decisions that don’t work and then get pissy and throw temper tantrums in the mailing lists when people point out that they don’t work, heavily moving away from portability and modularity (the devs think nobody uses BSD?!), windows can’t raise themselves or keep themselves raised, or absolutely position themselves, so toolbars/utilities/etc can just go fuck themselves, sudo gets broken and has to pipe passwords everywhere as a workaround which means sudo has increased attack surface on wayland, and color management is non-existent.

And this is just shit I have personally ran into the last time I tried it, which was about 4 months ago.

To be entirely fair, what civil discourse can you have around “We want to make bloodsport of murdering these people.” vs “Maybe just let people have basic rights.”
