+1, also waiting for the solution. I’m still on Wayland, but I have to use driver 535 to avoid major corruption issues with xwayland. There’s still issues with that driver, but it’s at least usable for me.

Not trying to shill, but they’ve stepped up with open sourcing their kernel modules and implementing wayland explicit sync (though not implementing implicit sync continues to screw users until the stack is complete). Their driver situation is far better than it was in the past.

Great book. Very dystopian.

This has cultural significance beyond ai generated shitposting at least.

Lmao, no for real though, having jumped between different meths and amphetamines, I have to wonder if it’d be easier and cheaper to get my hands on methamphetamine than some of these prescriptions. There’s a guy at our local park who I suspect may know about that.

US healthcare sucks. I’m gonna have to stop seeing my therapist, as they’re out of network, and financials are too tight right now. Also I can’t get my stimulant prescription, it’s constantly in high demand and low supply. Can’t afford name brand, of course.

Sorry, overruled. You’re interesting.

What a 256 color palette does to a person 😔

I think GNU/Linux (What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.) is a great fit for non-technical people when they don’t have an established workflow on another OS. If their needs can’t easily be translated over, though, I think it’d turn users away.

I agree, it’s nice to ask somebody about their boundaries, and it can really make them feel more comfortable.

However, I do consider it the other person’s responsibility to establish the boundaries and uphold them; if I call them something they dislike, I’d hope they’d feel comfortable enough to tell me (in a kind way). That’s the kind of friendship I’d want anyways. And if I purposefully ignore that request or argue it, I think it’s very fair for that person to be more stern in communicating their boundary. In this case, “I don’t care that you use it as gender-neutral, I don’t want to be called ‘dude’.”

Good friends/people would respect your wishes, though. It’s your identity, at the end of the day.

“I should peg him”

I didn’t know that! (AM4 user here, blissfully ignorant of the newer chipsets and their changes, for the sake of my wallet, mostly)

I hate it when this happens while I’m driving 😩

Agreed. Windows’ HDR support is rough. It’s fine for gaming, but you can’t display SDR and HDR content together like MacOS. I think that’s why Apple holds a big part of the market for creatives.

Ah, I see, thank you for the correction. Does Wayland only encompass communication between clients and the server? I’ve seen some code calling the wlroots functions for requesting VRR and some of how the Nvidia open kernel modules respond. Is requesting VRR a part of Kernel Mode Setting, then?

Tbh I don’t really understand why one would buy burger buns from AliExpress/Temu/Wish anyway. But I imagine I’m not the target consumer for that one.

I think the compositor, Mutter in Gnome’s case, has to explicitly request VRR from the display driver via the Wayland protocol. So it’s a bit of each.

Thigh highs do keep your legs so warm tho 😩

I learned edging on my front lawn personally.
