Same here. I have a few applications that I had to specifically turn on Wayland support for (Thunderbird & Vivaldi, for instance), and a lot that work just fine, and the ones I have issues with are mostly the X-only apps running on Xwayland, which tend to be less stable than they were directly under X, but there are only a few that I still use.
^&@% Private equity again…
Political organizing is a great example of something that shouldn’t be owned by this kind of firm.
(Followed by every other kind of organization. The concept of treating “business” as a set of interchangeable parts that move money in and out of opaque boxes and not actually focusing on what they do and why is massively broken IMO)
OK, I like the comment here wondering about the thermometer’s range: “things with an interesting temperature are generally uncomfortable to hold your hand next to. I’m sure there will be at least one support call because someone tries to measure fire from 1 inch away.”
When someone named Kafka says it’s the “weirdest”…that says something!
I learned the term “glass cliff” when she was hired.
The rest of the page? Probably. I stopped reading after the comic.
I have a single Raspberry Pi 3b as a local file/media server running Jellyfin. I’m also running BOINC and seeding torrents of various Linux distributions. External HDD for storage, plus a thumb drive for the local media and another for the torrents so it only has to spin up when someone’s actually using it.
It’s not super-fast by any means, but it’s fast enough to listen to music over my LAN, which is the main thing I need it to do quickly. Though eventually I plan on setting up a better NAS on something with faster I/O.
If I was only using it for file sync, maybe. Though as it happens, the Linux desktop file sync client works fine on here, and I can work on files locally.
But that doesn’t help for things like, say, account settings, or tasks, or getting the right caldav URL to be able to plug it into a local client.
I’m using it for multiple services, not just one, and while some have apps available, not all do, and some features aren’t supported in the corresponding app.
I’m using Nextcloud for a lot more than just file sharing. Calendar, contacts, tasks, RSS reader sync, etc.
I was expecting this to be a half-baked plan to block something using a less-than-half-baked definition that would also cover security updates.
The fact that someone actually thinks explicitly blocking security updates is a good idea is just appalling.
KDE Plasma handles the touch screen fine on my PineTab2.
It works in LxQt too, but only in portrait mode (which is the default for this device). I keep meaning to look up how to tell it to rotate the touch coordinates along with the display, and I keep not getting around to it.
But the main issue I’ve run into is that most GUI apps for Linux are…let’s just say they’re not designed with touch input in mind.
I had to check…

Edit:
Yeah, it was real! Back in 2017.

Checking the certificate of DLL makes it harder to hack. Note that once users’ PCs are compromised, the hackers can do anything on the PCs. This solution only prevents from Notepad++ loading a CIA homemade DLL. It doesn’t prevent your original notepad++.exe from being replaced by modified notepad++.exe while the CIA is controlling your PC.
I’ve gone back to Blu-Ray for some things because I no longer trust streaming sites to keep them available.
