They're not too hard to make. The service worker is most of the effort imo.

Most frameworks it's relatively free

I always found the whirling noise surprising. One can clearly hear the wheels which are as loud as the speaker.

And if you're deaf neither will help.

I am surprised anyone with a career like his still depends on a publisher.

These large personalities, and the media world as a whole, would be so much better if they independently published.

You have potentially two or more hours added to your day for socializing.

Get lunch nearby, go to the park, do stuff in the evening.

If you're too isolated physically that speaks to urban sprawl and car dependency more than wfh imo

Firefox

Libreoffice Draw

Gnome Document Viewer

Do not use ldd on untrusted binaries.

I executed the backdoor the other day when assessing the damage.

objdump is the better tool to use in this case.

If you are checking out the extent of damage on your system do not use ldd to check the links.

You can inadvertently executed the exploit this way.

You : I have bug with cosmic
\ Dev : which cosmic?
\ You : you know cosmic
\ Dev : which mf cosmic? \

I would say "Cosmic DE", as I have been saying the whole time, just like they have named it.

If I am able to identify the specific component I would specify the submodule of Cosmic DE which is linked in the repository named cosmic-epoch.

If I wanted to report an issue with POP_Shell which is a part of COSMIC I I would go to the repository called Cosmic.

I have been restating this and restating, the fact that you're conflating my response with what you have been calling "Gnome-Based Cosmic Desktop".

Yes. That is the link I clicked, which you sent me, which is also where my screenshot is. In that link they state that the cosmic-epoch crate is part of Cosmic DE which is rust + iced based.

You said this yourself at the top of the thread. 😅

In fact, I have just been quoting from the links you sent me. I write software for a living, so I read very carefully.

😅

I don't see the words "Gnome-Based Cosmic DE" anywhere in those screenshots..

They do however mention "Gnome based desktop environment: [named] Cosmic". Which my point still stands. This is "Cosmic" which consist of Pop Shell.

Cosmic DE, again, is the name of the Rust + Iced desktop environment which is what I am stating has nothing to do with Gnome.

They have two different names, and I spoke for the latter.

Yes however you're conflating the names of both which is where the confusion lies.

Cosmic is a portion of Pop Shell, which is what you're calling "Gnome-based Cosmic DE". This collection of gnome extensions forms what is called Pop Shell. The cosmic here only refers to the extension that modifies the dock, workspace and configuration changes and is not a desktop environment.

Cosmic DE refers to the "rust based" full desktop environment called Cosmic DE which has nothing gnome within it.

I get a ton of mail promotions for Fiber Internet that isn't even in my area yet.

I let myself get excited every time only to be let down.

I think that's out of date, or refers to the old customized gnome extension, of the same name, that pop currently uses called Cosmic Shell.

Cosmic desktop is in rust, uses iced, and doesn't even use mutter as it's compositor.

If you look at the source for the new cosmos components they don't have any gtk.

Edit:

Yep, seeing the Tumblr post we're talking about different things. You mentioned above the Rust based DE so it's easy to conflate the two given your previous responses

If you find some spare time.

I would love to know how you rose to that position and what the work was like.

Sincerely, A developer who feels the upper rungs on the ladder is a good way to make meaningful change

Ubuntu 8.04. Was still in elementary school at the time.

I thought the themes were really cool, especially the compiz effects.

Unfortunately unless you buy hardware with the intention of running Linux on it you're rolling dice.

It is very likely your laptop can work well with it but unless you buy a Linux certified laptop you're going to have a few quirks. Generally, if it comes down to it, the Kernel code can be adjusted to accommodate the quirks of incompatible hardware but that requires reporting the bugs.

This is why people say Linux works great on older devices. It's because Linux users got the laptops brand new and put in the time to report the bugs the needed parties so they get resolved and included in newer Linux (kernel) versions.

Actually a lot of these issues stem from a long history of Microsoft breaking standards and manufacturers catering to Windows. This is especially apparent with ACPI which ties into power consumption and sleep reliability among other things.

If you buy supported hardware, manufacturers specifically test and align better with standards (often offering a Linux mode in the bios). Linux actually "just works" better than MacBooks do. Some laptops Ive owned and loved are:

• Thinkpad t480
• Dell XPS 13 (Developer Edition)
• Framework Laptop

The last two of these go the extra step to publish their bios updates through "LVFS" which means I can get bios updates, OS updates, AND app updates all from the "app store". This is so underrated and a far cry from the windows experience.

If you want to use Linux without quirks and you have the capability to, consider getting a Laptop that ships with Linux. Key things that play into this are wifi and sleep compatibility.

Please don't judge Linux unless you try it on hardware that is all supported by Linux. (The great thing is you can take action, even without coding experience, to make your hardware work if it does not today).

As for the software experience, Nvidia is notorious for difficulty with Linux but have been taking strides to change that. I feel that in a years time things will be better.

This specifically affects the Wayland compatibility (modern display stack), which also influences the touchpad experience especially around multi touch (Wayland is paired with libinput a modern input stack).

Cosmic is not gnome based

5000$?

They put a woman in prison over this and she didn't even intend to illegally vote.

At this point t9 worked better.
