Oh and yep God said you’re not allowed to drink alcohol /s

He was pretty clear in Quran on that topic.

Not just license. You also need to link to it as a shared library and allow users to replace it with their own build of the library. Meaning you can’t use stuff like DRM and anticheats.

Lada doesn’t really exist anymore. Before 2022 it was just assembling cheap Renault cars with Lada branding (and actually owned by Renault). Now it’s nationalised and assembles some obscure Chinese cars (or plans to. Not sure if they managed to set it up yet).

Sure, it’s hard to craft a perfect solution. However the status quo for a long time was that applications were doing it themselves. And Wayland took it away without providing a replacement.

I had been led to believe that one of Wayland’s strength was solving the correct window coordinates save-and-restore problem. Does someone know what happened here?

It’s literally the opposite. Windows aren’t allowed to position themselves on Wayland (because it’s unsafe or something). Window state save restoration must implemented by the compositor itself. Not sure about GNOME, but KDE doesn’t have that.

If they can built space rockets that can carry payload to orbit, they can build ICBMs. First space launchers were modified ICBMs after all.

Dial the Gate. Series of interviews with people involved in making of Stargate TV show (not just actors bit people at every level). It’s over 200 episodes now.

Well GTK does not have theming anymore, though it still needs some way to configure fonts and icon theme.

Nah, this is patented by Sony.

Google-certified Android TV devices aren’t known to receive security updates either.

Does it really matter? It’s the usual corporate intrigues/power struggle/backstabbing/whatever. Just for some reason leaked into public view instead of being behind the scenes like it’s normally done, probably because someone is stupid.

It’s still not enough time for KDE devs to fix all major issues with Wayland. It requires at least another two years in the oven.

I wonder if they consulted Plasma devs about it. Sure they said that they aim to make Wayland ready for Plasma 6, but it didn’t sound like it was an actual plan for 6.0. After all they got their hands full with Qt 6 porting, and there are still major roadblocks with completing Wayland support, while 6.0 is about to have its alpha release already.

Knowing Fedora devs however, I suspect they didn’t. They switched to Plasma Wayland by default several Fedora releases ago, when it was in no way ready. I guess I will switch to a different distro when this time comes.

I always got updates on the day one. Is this american thing (because americans buy phones modified by their carrier)?

Russia already has national root TLS certificate that’s must installed on all devices (basically government-mandated MITM). The next step is to start severely throttling (and optionally blocking) TLS connections that don’t use it. Some popular foreign sites like Google can remain functional by replacing their certificate at ISP level (all ISPs are already controlled by the government).

What? I’m a Hodd Toward, please learn to spell names correctly!

Nah they should just upgrade their PCs

I just enjoy that stuff lol. I only stopped my last Skyrim playthrough because I kept updating my mods and adding new ones and at the one point it just broke all of my saves. I took it as a sign to move on to other games.

It’s shitty code bound. Sometimes no matter how powerful your hardware is, software will perform poorly because it just doesn’t scale. Writing complex software like game so that it can fully utilize current hardware AND actually run faster with better CPU/GPU can become very difficult once a certain complexity threshold is reached. It’s easy enough to do for a small linear game even if it has exceptional graphics, but an open world sandbox game like ones that Bethesda makes is a completely different story.

That doesn’t mean that it’s impossible of course - Bethesda absolutely should have made a better job, but it’s by no means an easy task.
