I’ve been doing that and, in a world where Democrats are actually interested in making the world better and more fair, maybe that would work.

The problem is that Democrats don’t want that. They want to continue supporting big business, deporting “illegals”, drone striking foreigners, making tons of money from corporate donations… But occasionally wave a rainbow flag. They want to keep our race into fascism under the speed limit, and are wondering why they’re getting no traction with people who want to turn the fuck around.

If they had a platform that made even modest promises about taxing billionaires, bringing bloodsucking insurance companies and predatory banks to heel, getting the police in line etc. they’d have a wildly popular platform and they’d naturally stop trying to squash progressive candidates. But unfortunately, the corporations say fixing issues will make their stocks go down.

Vote Blue! Their platform includes

• Small budget cuts to the jackbooted thugs murdering you in the streets!

• Slapping billionaires on the wrist in the court of public opinion, the only court that matters!

• Allowing all of their legislation to get hung up by a rotating cast of party traitors and then backing them to the hilt when a progressive candidate primaries them!

• Throwing money at healthcare industry donors to fix healthcare!

• Restoring faith in American alliances by promising to look the other way when any of our pals decide to genocide those naughty minorities.

• Gerrymandering, but this time it’s us so it’s cool!

Ahem. To be clear, I’ll vote against Trump any chance I get, but we are still totally fucked until we get politicians that can actually stand for something that big business doesn’t donate to.

An anti-DEI fork by a wingnut and a project that isn’t even half way ready to use starting from scratch in a niche language. Neither of which are capable of dealing with the fundamental problem of X, the protocol itself, without becoming something entirely different.

… I’m not holding my breath.

Agreed. I was an early Wayland convert because once upon a time I started writing a WM and taking an interest in X internals… And then my face melted off like I’d opened the Ark of the Covenant.

Things are so much simpler now.

I use KDE Connect remote input on Wayland all the time…

KMag is broken (simply has not been updated, not like it couldn’t work) but you can zoom the entire screen in KDE with super +/- is that not good enough?

Didn’t they straighten out Wayland support? I thought this was a thing of the past as of 555, but I also haven’t run Nvidia myself in years and years.

Wayland is a sports car - modern, tailor made for performance. X is like a '99 Civic that’s had the seatbelts stripped out and the airbags replaced with cameras that let all the other cars on the road see you naked.

It’s fine to prefer X, but the older it gets the more people are going to roll their eyes at you. XWayland is fine for random old stuff, but there is zero reason X should be running your whole display these days.

Inb4 someone mentions network transparency that gimps the rest of the system or some 5000 year old app that needs to sniff events sent to every other program.

Academy has been good so far, way lower stakes, but you have to get past the first ten minutes of episode one. It sets up the main plot, but it’s way more… Discovery style bad shit happening and baseless action, than the rest of the show. IMO they should have filled it in as backstory later in the ep, after they’d established more of a tone, but otherwise it gets good quick.

I have a giant FLAC collection and I sometimes wish I could use these local players because I used Winamp/XMMS/quod libet back in the day, but I feel like I just can’t give up consistent access from outside the house.

I ran Tauon for a while (and have run a few of the others over the years) but I always end up back at my Airsonic setup. Works in any browser, works in a few different Android apps (Subsonic compatible), less of a pain than mpd.

Maybe it’d be different if I was still sitting in front of my computer virtually all the time, but nowadays phone to Bluetooth speaker/car/Chromecast is like 90% of my listening.

Basically, the executing thread might get interrupted in a window of code where the interrupt flags are wrong. Not looking at the specifics, but this could lead to various things from mostly harmless (e.g. potentially holding a lock for many times longer than expected but eventually releasing it) to program crashing (e.g. if taking an interrupt while handling the fault leaves the data structures in an inconsistent state).

This is likely the first one, since it was missed for so long in a very well exercised piece of code.

Are you running the native version or through Proton? When I played Civ VI the Linux native version performed worse than using Proton, ironically. Either way, maybe try switching?

Since you specified multiplayer I’m guessing it’s not time to load from disk or anything.

For ancient stuff, maybe, but AMD is also active in enabling new stuff in the kernel and userspace. AMD basically invented Vulkan, and have had the best open source driver stack for years at this point.

I love what Valve has done for Linux, but it’s the last mile of track at the end of huge amounts of outside work enabling the hardware to work in the first place.

As lime mentions, look at swap. The Mint installer should have suggested it, but if not it’s pretty easy to setup after the fact (just use a swap file instead of a partition). Windows does this as well and it should pretty clearly deal with OOM.

Coral Island has a platinum rating on ProtonDB so it should be absolutely no sweat to run if you have the resources.

I’m with you for the moment. I may get deeper into the episode at some point but I put it on hoping for some Trek optimism and it instantly shat on me. I get enough miscarriages of justice and jackboots beating people up in the real world, thanks.

I have done literally nothing with my printer except print parts and benchies so they’re all just PLA black. Wish I could help!

Haha, I might have to dust off my Ender for this.

Just used this as an excuse to setup a monthly donation. I love this little instance…

It did say I would get Jamaharon included though? I assume my Horgon is in the mail?

He doesn’t need to actually stop them, just make them appear illegitimate. Also, in places where Republicans are in power already, they will absolutely do this and suddenly we’re looking at a midterm where the best outcome for Democrats is losing no power instead of gaining any.

I have a wife stuck in the Adobe-verse and yeah, going back that far should work great. It didn’t become a huge hassle until they started being insane with the licensing.

Uhh, is this not a direct reference to that song? I immediately took it that way…
