Hmm, I know at one point GNOME/GDM locked out Wayland for Nvidia cards - but that hasn't been the case for a while (and possibly was distro specific).

Is there any output from:

    
cat /etc/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules
cat /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules

  

If you haven't already, it's worth a shot!

Out of curiosity, and I can't think of why it would affect it - the WaylandEnable= is generally commented out instead of explicitly set. What happens if you put a # in front of that line to comment it out again?

I imagine that is the case, however they could refund it given the situation.

I get the feeling they won't allow refunds.

Hmm, well the railing of my bed would well... be railing me.

This bug was the nail in the coffin on Nvidia for me and I finally picked up a 6700 XT to replace my 2080 this month...

But, when I was on my 2080 trying out Wayland, I of course always noticed this bug on actual apps themselves (such as my IDE...) but it didn't always manifest in games, at least not till 545 came out.

Not sure why, since of course most games are run through XWayland. Perhaps they're in a similar situation and I'd be curious if they opened something like Discord, if they saw it there.

It never should've gone out in the first place. Whether it was ever going to be a good idea (I do not believe so) is something that can be debated elsewhere, but it definitely was not a good idea with the current state of Bungie and Destiny 2.

Am I surprised that someone higher up in management pushed/green-lit the idea? No.

And no Bungie, you do not get brownie points for seeing the train wreck (that they were completely tone deaf enough to cause in the first place) and being like "Oh we can see that this was not bringing joy, we'll pull it... for now".

What?

First of all, after the shitshow that was the launch of D4, that's just hilarious. S2 is certainly better than the start, but it is no holy grail that magically fixed everything.

Secondly, you're dreaming if you think a DLC is worth more than the base game.

And finally, I like how they're "asking" players if they'd "be okay" with it. Are you telling me that if the majority of the player base said "NO!" they'd actually listen? If there is anyone who believes that, well I've got a bridge in Sanctuary to sell you.

It looks like my top song this year was "Relapse" by Wage War, and top artist was Self Deception:

Makes sense, great tracks and artists all around!

I mean, sure - why not? Like Ada said, if it isn't going to cause any negative impact on me, there isn't a reason for me to object that I can think of.

I would be a bit concerned about the hazards of drawing a lot of attention to yourself on the internet, because of the vile people on the internet - but aside from a brief note about it (if they asked for my opinion), that's really all I'd have to say on the matter.

Ah I see, that's unfortunate then. For what its worth, I still think the bot is a great idea for discoverability and bridging the two services together! I hadn't seen it before since I usually have bot users muted and happened to see this comment chain while logged out.

I've given it a follow from my Mastodon account since I do tend to miss quite a few cool Lemmy posts it seems, and I think it'll help me find some communities in general that I'll want to subscribe to from over here.

I wonder if perhaps wrapping the majority of the text in a spoiler would work. Though I don't know if that translates over to Mastodon (if not, it might look a bit funky on that side).

That's Visual Studio Code vs VSCodium - I believe OP is referring to Visual Studio, the full blown IDE that's been out for far longer than VS Code, which does have a completely different feature set.

Just curiosity really, it was when I first started learning Java from my father's old textbook. The "Getting your environment setup" had instructions for both Windows, OS X, and Linux/Ubuntu.

Of them all, the instructions for Ubuntu were the simplest (sudo apt-get install openjdk or a similar package), in order to get the Java dev tools installed.

Ended up giving Ubuntu a look in a VM since I hadn't heard of "Linux/Ubuntu" (which was also the first time I used a VM) during the 8.04 days!

Funnily enough I actually put Java down for a bit since I just couldn't get into it. IIRC though, my first project on my GitHub had something to do with Python+GTK. Then eventually I got back into Java when I discovered I could make Minecraft plugins/mods.

Of course I was pretty young at the time, maybe 13 or 14? So I didn't know (or would've cared) about the whole privacy aspect of Linux - that came much later. But ever since then, like many others, I've always maintained that Linux is the best development environment for me.

Unfortunately this tends to apply to most of the "I'm not but..." phrases that people say.

Ahaha, very relatable! Although personally I tend to keep mine relatively simple, I just add some cinnamon and sugar into mine (which is also what I do with Cream of Wheat for the few times that I have it).

Whenever you go to the hospital for GI related issues (or for surgeries in general I imagine), they always restrict you to not having anything to eat/drink, then they allow clear liquids, then they allow soft foods, and finally "full" (some hospitals will have a few other steps in between) and oatmeal falls into the "soft foods" category, but often times things like fruits won't - but cinnamon and sugar has always been allowed for me so I've just gotten used to only having my oatmeal with those two things added in.

Oatmeal is my go to! Whenever I land in the hospital due to my Crohn's issues, I end up having a lot of it. It's thick enough to feel full from it, and while it doesn't have the most of nutrients, its better than nothing.

It helps that if you add some flavoring of your choice to it, it doesn't taste bad and thus makes it even better.

I actually tend to use "Hot", it seems like a better "Active" to me.
