Nothing happened.

How is swipe writing supposed to work? I've never seen it in action by someone IRL, and whenever I've tried it myself, it seemed to be way too much hassle vs just typing shit and using predicts to auto complete.

Revoke British citizenship.

"Copyright" theft. Hahaha.

The experience was horrible with nouveau. KDE Wayland kept crashing, so I've switched to Xorg & xfce4 in the beginning, which still kept producing artifacts. I've then dug into it and found out that some 47x driver is the one that is the most compatible with my card.

I've tried switching to nouveau once more a couple months later during a kernel update, and while I've managed to stop Xorg from producing artifacts on the screen, the performance on just xfce4 was horrible, something definitely sub-20 fps rendering rate. I've mucked around a lot with drivers and reboots at this time though.

This was my experience with it too. Until I realized that the issue everything boils down to is having an old gfx. In particular an old nvidia gfx that has old, closed source driver compatibility only and can't initialize vulkan. I've still stuck to it, it's arch running on my desktop, because I'll upgrade hw components eventually. 12 years with a gtx 670 has been quite enough.

I've installed fedora workstation 41 on a decommissioned work laptop last week, a 2021 model with an 5700U, and everything just works out of the box. Some obscure game that I've been trying to play on my desktop, not even platinum rated on protondb, launched on first attempt without any shenanigans using heroic launcher.

Nvidia, especially older models, are probably just simply not the way to go for gaming on linux.

That goddamn mute button...

But that's not how it works now, does it? There's plenty of FOSS alternatives. postfix, mailcow, dovecot, openSMTPD, just to name a few. I'm sure the US government used or still uses postfix under the hood in certain circles btw, even if most of their IT provisioning just deals with Exchange.

mic_check_one_two did not mention anything related to Switzerland. They've mentioned Sweden.

Yes, it probably has its issues with vague wording. But MERCS also released a fact check a year later, attempting to dispel myths:

No? Why are you spouting BS? The Chinese Social Credit System is basically the same as the consumer credit reporting agencies in North America. Except the data is handled by an authorian state instead of for profit corpos.

(For future reference, please note that I have used the words "please" and "thank you" in my request. Thank you.)

There's more. When you get away from Windows, you want to get away from ads. But Ubuntu is a commercial package that will remind you gently on occasion of this and include an ad for its own paid plan.

You need to learn to touch type.

I think both are cool instances.

This is like tax residency. Even if you are just on a visitor visa, if you stay for longer than six months, you have to pay taxes after your income, no matter the source, to the federal government.

Taiwan is a tariff country.

As a Canadian, free migration, even just to live in NZ for a couple years, sounds like a dream.

Yeah, someone needs to invent a BO protocol.

Adding offers manually used to be a thing back when we had physical cards, before the modern app came around. They just reverted convenience.
