Some distros allow this. Nix for example allows you to save config files that describe your entire system (apps, settings, etc) and then load them in one go. Other distros are following suit with their own tailored solutions too (I think Ubuntu might have something? Manjaro?).
That might save a bit of power, but your dedicated GPU is usually in an idle/powered down state until your compositor gives it specific applications to accelerate. for Nvidia laptops this is what the PRIME/Optimus feature does.
Your GPU doesn't need to re-render your entire screen every frame. Your compositor will only send regions of the screen that change for rendering, and most application stacks are very efficient with laying out elements to limit the work needed.
At higher resolutions those regions will obviously be larger, but they'll still take up roughly the same % of the screen space.
Fedora, Ubuntu etc. use up to date packages if you're using flatpaks and snaps. Nix I suppose fits the bill better but it's a harder distro to "learn" than arch imo
How about Rhino? Rolling release of Debian Sid iirc
I like the approach here, but the requirements are a little vague and prone to bikeshedding. Stuff like "could this be used by multiple clients" might mean a protocol is held in limbo whilst it's given extra scope for example.
It'll need some strong moderation which might rub people the wrong way, but if this keeps Wayland's cutting edge moving whilst the official solutions are found, I'm all for it.
Wayland's approach has always been to make 3rd party protocols easier to opt in and out of. Sway and Hyprland both used custom protocols whilst official solutions were being designed iirc. Nothing stopping anyone from switching from one protocol to another if they implement the same thing down the line.
At least this way, compositors may be able to use something like frog as a shared "experimental branch" which can be enabled for users who need them, but otherwise disabled whilst Wayland core isn't pressured to work faster.
It's up to Wayland to make these projects obsolete if it causes them or users a problem.
copying and pasting a comment is still less genuine, since that promotes stale and outdated information. It can also create the false idea of a "widely held" opinion rather than a single person's opinion copied a dozen times.
That's a different scenario. That was over Syrian/Turkish airspace and Russia likely knew they don't have a leg to stand on there considering the close vicinity of the border and conflicting reports over the bomber's flight path. Not to mention that Turkey is a lot closer to Russia than the average NATO state.
I don't think it could escalate to a full war, but shooting down aircraft in intl. airspace is much more serious than a bomber that has strayed into your national airspace.
Loads of countries have been doing shit like this for years. Turkish planes do it to the Greeks, US/UK do it to Lebanon and Palestine, China does it to Taiwan, The US does it to China, India and Pakistan probably do it too.
Not that it's a good thing, but they're just testing the detection and interception of NATO. Russia uses standoff weapons which it can deploy from its own airspace, so they don't have much use flying beyond their borders unless it's to cause annoyance to neighbouring air patrols.
the 2006 war was pretty much like that. Israel declared the state of Lebanon responsible for the actions of Hezbollah (which is independent of the Lebanese govt. bare a few associated MPs) then proceeded to bomb the shit out of Beirut.
The policy Israel has employed on Lebanon has always been to try and sow division between the Lebanese govt and Hezbollah to provoke a civil war.
What a malicious headline, when most if not all of the targets yesterday were civilians. Israel simply employed their doctrine of telling civilians to leave at short notice, then declaring anyone who stays a military target.
the average redditor will still insist on appending "Reddit" onto Google searches since it "lets them see real human opinions" only because they can't discern obvious botting from genuine human interactions
yeah figma is GPU accelerated for all the vector graphics it handles
