Valve Engineer Mike Blumenkrantz Hoping To Accelerate Wayland Protocol Development
  • Yeah the pointer is handled differently so the old packages don't work, and I couldn't find an updated package possibly because no one has bothered to write one yet. It's perfectly understandable and not an issue whatsoever.

    Trackpads are handled much better though.

  • My very first experience with Linux last year was switching from X to Wayland to get my touchpad to work properly. The only thing I've noticed that doesn't work on Wayland is that mouse following cat.

  • Works about free software.
  • Those are supposed to be part of the spoiler tag, but many lemmy clients don't support those yet.

  • We lost Keanu
  • There's a difference between sharing information and a river of glorification.

    Not all the WWII history shows glorified it, but lots of them did and did often. I've heard too much about the brilliant tactical minds that ensured the fall of Nazi Germany and paved the way for democracy and freedom. Too many tank battles are called great, and not enough called tragic. Famines and desyruction of infrastructure ate often mentioned for their strategic effects, and rarely for the rapid destruction of society they cause.

  • SKUNK
  • Wow, this episode is really experimental. I was not expecting the twist, but it's quite good!

  • stacked
  • Not even /s, there are signs of posts planted upright nearby, a so-called woodhenge.

  • Off by one solitude
  • Northern England just got a new nickname.

  • BYD would still have the cheapest EV in the US, even with a 100% tariff
  • Nah, I don't need google updates being a critical component of my transportation. Mobile phone as an OPTIONAL ceter console, sure, but the vehicle must still work without it.

  • Mozilla is a sinking ship.
  • There was a comment thread a month ago about the attempted refusal to use gender neutral language because that's political: "This project is not an appropriate arena to advertise your personal politics."

    It's not the same thing, but it does match the pattern. Still take everything with some salt though.

  • Linus Torvalds: Speaks on the Rust vs C Linux Divide
  • Ladux? Linda? +Linux, pronounced "Add a Linux" -> Ada Linux? LinLace?

  • Oxygen
  • Fire gets it's energy from fuel+oxygen. Most life does too. Plants (and other photosynthetic organisms) can also get energy from light but that requires you to sit in the sun doing not much for a long time. There's also chemosynthesis, where energy is obtained from a chemical reaction, but that's usually not nearly as powerful as oxidation.

    Put another way, a car with NOS is way faster and more powerful than one without. So too is life that uses oxygen more powerful than life that doesn't.

  • A classic
  • No it works, you just need to go without https security. You might need to allow your browser to do that though.

  • And then everyone clapped
  • Also possibly a pomegranate, which comes from medieval latin for "apple with many seeds". Lots of things were called apples in the past, and many languages still do that, like the French words for potato; "Pomme de terre" which means "Apple of the earth".

    Apple just kinda mean fruit, so it's quite vague.

  • Dear Corolla drivers
  • Maybe the mark is missed for me because no iPhone in existence is marketed as a standard everyday driver. They're always various levels of "luxury" or "pro". More comparable to a Lexus or a Lincoln.

    It's also fixed one of the flaws of the original by increasing the time difference. 2005-2024 is a meaningful difference in the market, but 2021-2024 isn't (unless Apple harped on 2024 specifically for some reason).

    A more accurate comparison and one that exposes the weaknesses of the original might be a 2024 BMW vs a 2023 Bugatti, a new upper class car vs a recent top class supercar. Fewer of that argument's flaws are due to exaggeration and more are presented in the original, which would be a better exposition of truth to satirize with.

  • Fraction of our power.
  • I find it sad how much one overclock changes gameplay, simply because there's 20 other overclocks and 2 full secondaries that you'll basically never use. I wish special powder was a grappling hook upgrade.

  • Dear Corolla drivers
  • I agree, this is poor satire.

  • Cloud storage/backup options [Linux]
  • You could set up your own cloud, yes, but you could also use only 'client' devices, without ever having an off-site computer in the network.

  • Burning Up
  • Top half? 0-50°C is the top half. The bottom half is -50-0°C.

  • Burning Up
  • Even better, I don't even feel a fever until it's 104°F. I've just looked it up, and that's exactly 40°C. Even my body likes round centigrade numbers.
