Yes, it can, and by default it doesn't use it.

Oh yeah there is a button to switch on the login screen, but X11 is the default and I never saw a reason to switch the default.

What do you suggest would go wrong? I never even gave Steam my name, so how would they even know it's different?

What else can you do?

No, I'm on Kubuntu, it doesn't use Wayland.

Do many distros use Wayland now? I use Kubuntu and it doesn't, so that probably explains why I never ran into any issue with that. Gamescope looks like some Wayland tool too from what I see. I don't have an HDR monitor either. Looks like good stuff, that I just never needed so never noticed it not working.

But to my knowledge, AMD GPUs pass through just fine to VMs? What was your problem with them?

I asked on the VFIO subreddit back then and was told AMD cards have a bug where you have to restart the PC to switch between host and VM (which makes it no better than dualbooting since you have to restart anyway), this was not the case on Nvidia.

So now that Nvidia has open source drivers and works on Wayland, what's the difference? Just gamescope?

When I was in the market for a new card 2 years ago I looked into AMD, but learned that they don't work as well as Nvidia for GPU passthrough to VMs, which I need to work. I'd love to switch because Nvidia is a shit company, but AMD GPU's just don't work for my use case.

I'm curious though because I don't know what I'm missing. What are the features in AMD drivers that make it more complete?

I've been using Nvidia cards on Linux for many years and never had issues. I did have issues with the laptop cards (Optimus switching), but on the desktop it was always flawless for me.

I definitely used it 2 months ago, maybe it changed since then, or maybe it depends on something.

I develop software that has a Windows version, I need a Windows installation to test it.

Do you have a source? First time I'm hearing about it

Given most of Russia is in Asia, isn't Russia the Russia of Asia?

Because that's what they are by definition. Expert systems are a type of AI.

They actual report does say it just displays a fake login page. It's just phishing.

According to the report, the app just displays a fake login page. I don't see a good way to prevent this.

Yes, the app doesn't steal any information from other apps. The report says the malware just displays a fake bank login page, in the hope the user gives it their details willingly.

It does, you have a full screen scary warning when an app asks for these accessibility permissions. Clearly many people just give it to a random QR code reader app for some reason.

Maybe it would, but it doesn't change anything. You asked why would they revive them, they would revive them to prove to potential customers that their service works and get more money. Yes they can just quit making more money like you described, but as I said, that seems like a stupid business decision.

In the comment I was replying to, we are already in the future, already have the tech to revive them, and the company chooses not to.

If the future has the technology to revive you, it has the technology to de-age you. So don't worry, you are either not waking up at all (most likely), or waking up young.
