all of that describes a lack of extension support. “they just need to be updated” means “gnome devs don’t care about extensions, so shit that was working just fine now broke, and it’s up to the extension dev to find and fix bugs they didn’t introdkce”

But sure, you just need to update… and pin versions and shit

they don’t break due to bugs. They break because they are literally unsupported and ignored.

it’s slowing you down. The solution to that is to use it in even more places!

Wtf was up with that conclusion?

fuck that shit!

i fondly remember one post once that had me in tears, about teaching somali pirates about ebay

nope, they’re talking about blurry pixelated messes when running on epic settings on a 5090, rendering at 25% scale at single digit fps.

tldr: unreal engine 5

not dead, but pretty dead anyway: cracked.com

ew!!! kill it with fire!

whether you factor backwards compatibility or not is irrelevant. Those are still ps4 games. There are comparatively quite few ps5 games

there are no “one-way” mirrors. You just need to make your side darker than the other side (there’s a reason the observation side of a two-way mirror is never brightly lit, but the interrogation room is)

Tldr: put your face right up against it and use your hands to block out as much light as you can

no, brave is just another crypto scam

with higher pressures, scuba divers get less oxygen in the mixture they breathe. Because of the higher pressure more oxggen gets absorbed by their lungs and so, to compensate, there is a smaller percentage of oxygen in the tank.

This guy is not doing that.

it is not only for fully powered off machines. But it does work on fully powered off machines, which indicates that the os is not involved in the wakeup process. It can only put the system back to sleep. WoL is handled by the nic.

unfortunately, skydiving isn’t available anywhere in my country (Malta). I went to spain to do the dives. :(

high powered infrared leds at full blast? Just spitballing here

I thought the “addressed to it” part was implied. you seem to keep saying that windows handles things. The computer is shut down, not in sleep mode. There is no windows to handle things. Windows is not loaded. It has not gone through the boot process. WoL still works if you rip out all the storage. WoL is handled by the network adapter hardware

You’re describing what windows does after a computer is woken/turned on. That’s irrelevant, by that point the WoL is long over. After the pc is turned on and booted then windows is free to do whatever, including putting the system back to sleep. Whether it does this fast enough for you to notice is irrelevant, that is not WoL functionality.

And no, systems are not constantly waking up and then re-sleeping. Again, if the pc was shut down it’d have to go through the whole boot process before windows can put the system back to sleep. And you would find a sleeping pc when you left a shutdown one. Not what happens. And if instead of sleeping it shut itself down that’d look like a boot loop. definitely noticable.

tldr: after the pc is turned on and the os has been loaded, the os is free to do anything

scuba don’t breathe pure oxygen. That’s poisonous

never heard of a little thing called oxygen toxicity

A magic packet is any packet using any protocol with that string in it. And the os cannot respond to a wake-on-lan packet, because the os is not running at the time; the computer is powered off. The os is later informed, via acpi, of the reason it was woken up, should it bother to check. If you don’t want a magic packet, then any packet will wake the system up. I am not aware of any alternatives. Extensions, yes. But not alternatives

I can’t quite put my ginger anywhere. He has a perpetual case of the zoomies
