If they feel he is not performing at the level they need, they can remove him. It's not like they need a specific reason

This is not a Linux specific issue though it's worse on Linux because vulkan shader processing happens for almost every game. I remember people on windows complaining that The Last of Us was compiling shaders for several hours when first launched and that if shader compilation was skipped the game was laggy as hell(which is not a surprise considering how poor the game ran even after shader compilation)

Glad to hear that. I was fearing that ideas from the android world would be ignored because the ideas are fundamentally different to how things were done on Apollo.

The point I feel is that small phones have a small but vocal userbase and is not lucrative for smartphone manufacturers as more R&D is involved in the packaging for product which has a small audience

Since this is also an AMA, is voyager supposed to be inspired by Apollo or is it supposed to be more like a clone¿? I ask because I have seen you and sometimes others question certain feature requests or UI choice suggestions because they were not present on apollo

Yes I have seen posts about and users claim it. But I have never seen hard numbers to prove it. I searched for articles or videos in which they perform from battery tests with kde and gnome but I found absolutely nothing. I actually measured it when I was distrohopping and found no difference so I see no reason to believe those people when I have my numbers.

it looks like it HAS improved, hence my Ubuntu comment. I believe Wayland has something to do with it, too, since it scales hi res screens better than xorg

Maybe this is true. All my testing was recent because I had a new laptop and was figuring out what I wanted to install on it. Wayland version of both kde and gnome were what I use. Also I remember fractional scaling on gnome under x11 came with a warning of extra battery and CPU+GPU resource usage.

Is this targeted for release in April 2024 (when ubuntu's next lts version which launch)?

They are changing the desktop environment. While it should be updated seamlessly, I do wonder how the configuration files, gnome extensions and dependency issues will be handled when updating to cosmic. It may be beneficial to make a fresh install

Would love to see this car on track somewhere. For a show run.

For me the swipes don't vibrate at all even though haptic feedback is enabled for swipe gestures

Dude what are your requirements as such. Do you want to tinker or do you want a system with as low maintenance as possible at the cost of configurability¿? Are most of your games on steam¿? Is there some software you absolutely need¿? Answers to these questions will help a lot in giving you recommendations

ON GNOME (which is known to sip so much power)

Is there actual evidence to back this up¿? I have used endeavour OS, openSuse and fedora silverblue/kinoite with gnome and kde when I was distrohopping recently and I found that battery life is the same irrespective of DE. Fedora and endeavour last between 5:30 and 6 hours while openSuSe lasted around 5 hours irrespective of whether I was using kde or gnome

Yes I think that's weak grounds. And so does the judge who presided over the case as well as several other judges who deemed the warrant as unconstitutional. The only reason the evidence was allowed was because the judge declared that the justice system broke the rules in good faith. I haven't read the warrant request either just forming my opinion from articles on the issue.

I think that the warrant was issued on weak grounds because what the cops had was a hunch (a calculated one but still a hunch). They had no proof that the perpetrators/murderers searched for the apartment. It is not like they identified that searches for that addressed spiked at some point and served a warrant for those ip addresses during that spike. They just asked for all ip addresses in the last 15 days and that was because they did not have evidence pointing towards a search just a calculated hunch.

Edit : This precedent will have a lot of avenues for misuse. In States were abortion is banned, police can request warrants for abortion searches without the warrant specifying who specifically they are searching for and then investigate women whose ip addresses show up on the list. These will be woman whom the cops had zero evidence against, women who were not even suspects before an unconstitutional warrant like this makes them one.

But Google didn't. They were forced by a warrant which was issued on grounds so weak, that judges themselves agreed that it was unconstitutional.

My comment was in context of the comment above and not in the context of the article.

What you said is all true and is what I was trying to explain to the guy above that usually warrants need proof/probable cause to be issued.

Also considering how much chadwick dominated W-series, this would mean chadwick would be good enough for competing in the sharp end of the F1 grid which I doubt is true

Considering her record in W series was average, I have heavy doubts if the laps compared were representative.

This is like going to a hotel and asking to see a list of people who stayed in the hotel last week because the suspect is probably staying nearby.

And the hotel can deny to provide this information if it is an informal request. Only with a warrant will they forced to give up that list and a judge issuing the order will want some proof as why the police believe the suspect stayed in the hotel.

I am not a lawyer so I could be wrong about the criteria for the issue of warrants.

Why be in a relationship if you can't trust people at all. Better be alone then.

Is there an actual difference between those? Is one better than the other or it's just the OS giving options?

I am not a power user so I dont know much. From what I gather l, grub is more configurable and also easier to configure but is also more likely to break. Systemd-boot on other hand is more robust from what I read but less configurable and harder to configure. You can do things like set booting into btrfs snapshot using grub that I think you can't with systemd-boot. Again i am no expert so parts of this might be outdated or wrong. Better to ask a more experienced user
