Isn't that already true for QT apps on a gtk desktop and GTK apps on a QT desktop?

In my experience, GTK apps feel pretty good on Cosmic, and it has support for automatically theming them with your Cosmic theme. QT apps feel out of place, but this is an issue I've had on every non-Plasma desktop, because I struggle to get theming to work.

Never thought to look for an extension for that. Thanks for mentioning it.

You answered your question of why Wayland exists right after asking it. X sucks. Wayland is a very significant improvement, I'm not sure why you think it's a lateral move.

Also, X works for some cases, but not all, just lime Wayland. Using multiple refresh rates doesnt work well, HDR has no hope of ever working, and fractional scaling is horrible. Wayland has initial support for HDR and great support for the other two.

Wayland is a protocol used by each desktop that supports it. It often moves slowly because each desktop works together and discusses each change. If valve forked it, they would just have a protocol nobody is using. If people started using it, it would just slow down again for the same reason.

Even better, thanks!

Its seriously absurd. I hate ads, but there's realistically not a better option to profit when providing free software and services like Mozilla is doing. Investing into ads that don't violate your privacy is a great decision. I don't know what the hell people want from them.

They said not just pop culture references, not zero pop culture references.

As the commenter stated, it is a copyright issue. Nvidia is not allowed to use this code in a proprietary driver.

The first time I installed Vanguard, for the Valorant beta, it decided to disable my mouse and keyboard on each boot.

Jellyfin is only getting better while Plex is primarily getting worse. You also need to pay for Plex to get many features Jellyfin provides for free.

How could stopping work on projects violate the gpl?

If you need to dual boot, be sure to use separate EFI partitions for windows and Linux, separate drives if possible. Windows has done this far too many times.

Seems odd that they mention Mastodon as a Twitter alternative in this article, but do not make any mention of the fact that Twitter is also rife with these problems, more so as they lose employees and therefore moderation capabilities. These problems have been around on Twitter for far longer, and not nearly enough has been done.

That's nice to see. I recently RMAd mine and was sent a new one. Mine definitely wasn't unfixable, but I think would've taken longer than Valve would prefer. I hope it gets refurbished and sold instead of just trashed.

It's not going to effect you. No distro is going to ship a kernel that doesn't work with the Nvidia driver, besides maybe some rolling ones, in which case you can just use the LTS kernel. This is drama between Nvidia and the rest of the kernel maintainers, and Nvidia will update their driver to deal with it, as they have done in the past.

Shitting on people who care about FOSS because they don't want to see massive companies get away with blatant copyright infringement is crazy.

196 has always and will always be political. It's leftist shitposting, not just shitposting

Everyone I know who's bought a GPU recently has gone used, including me

Bluesky is built on an open source ActivityPub alternative called "AT Protocol". However, Bluesky itself is not open source and afaik does not yet federate with any other software. The company is a "public benefit corporation".

From my understanding, Bluesky has good moderation, to the point where Jack Dorsey (the Twitter founder) condemned it and withdrew from the project. That's a big plus in my book.

Overwatch was 100% a great game at one point, there was a reason it had so many players. I love Overwatch and TF2, and while they're similar conceptually, they really don't play that similarly. Especially competitively.

You can be anticapitalist and still agree with certain companies. Especially when those companies are private, and are not beholden to corrupt shareholders. Private companies are significantly more capable of having and sticking to their morals.

It's a new engine, which is more than enough to warrant a new title imo. CS has been practically the same game many years and has been incredibly successful all that time. The community does not want major gameplay changes, just minor improvements. CS as a series is not like COD or Battlefield.

CS2 has much more advanced and consistent smokes, vastly improved graphics, more advanced netcode, competitive improvments alongside a new competitive mode similar to FaceIT, and loads of quality of life improvements. I think this is more than enough to be considered a sequel.

Yeah they are, this problem is super overblown. Weirdly I've seen articles about this coming up for other apps too, like the ChatGPT app for MacOS storing conversation history in plain text on the device. Weird that this is suddenly a problem.

If someone wants better security, the can use full disk encryption and encrypt their home directory and unlock it on login.

It already doesn't have PC crossplay, why not just disable console crossplay, or use the same input based matchmaking other games use, with gyro as an added input? Disabling a superior input is incredibly stupid and will lower the skill ceiling of the game, which is already going to be lower than on PC.

Calling something a boys club in no way generalizes guys.

The shaders should be compiled in advance, did the author skip the shader compilation when launching?

I really didn't see anyone asking for this, hopefully it didn't take too many resources to create. Even though I don't understand it being made I'll probably still switch to it, because Exodus feels like it's getting more and more bloated and annoying to use.

edit: I just realized this wallet only seems to support bitcoin? Why on earth would they do that? Most people holding a significant amount of Bitcoin are storing it in a hardware wallet and rarely transferring it. It sucks to use for actual transactions.

They have to say not to open so that they aren't liable for people breaking it when opening it. Some aspects of the hardware are hard to work with, like replacing the battery, but joysticks and screens (the main things I would expect people to need to repair) are surprisingly easy to access for a modern portable device.

Dansup is seriously great at designing social platforms. I don't have much personal use for it, as I never cared for instagram, but I think Pixelfed is the best designed platform on the Fediverse. I'm sure Loops will be great too. Fantastic name too.

The Linux market is massive for Nvidia. Nobody is using Windows for ML and everybody is using Nvidia for ML.

Because they're breaking the law while taking advantage of open source software.

It's easy to act pleasant when you no longer have anything to gain from being awful

This is genuinely really cool. I worked IT at a school for a bit, and for anyone who doesn't know, having a good web filter is extremely important for legal reasons. The people in charge of implementing it can get into a lot of trouble if it's done improperly, hence why they always seem to block things so aggressively.

All of the current offering are complete garbage, with Lightspeed being the worst offender. An open source alternative could do a lot of good. I hope this kid is successful.

They already have, and they offer optional ones that take more force to move.

It's a boys club because its a club that only accepts boys. Its genuinly that simple. A girls club would be one that only accepts girls. There is no generalization happening. This is some real incel shit you're on, and thats a pipeline you should get off.

It supports LSPs, and has treesitter syntax highlighting and git integration which honestly makes it 90% of the way there already

People shitting on the game are so much more annoying than people praising it. Obviously it's not going to kill pokemon, no shit. It's still a fun game. The progression is solid, and its fun collecting cute creatures. The whole reason it blew up is because it was surprising that what was thought to be a meme game released with the amount of quality and depth it has.

Yeah you definitely can become a billionaire without being a scummy person, just not trough business. You need to be an artist or athlete.

I don't think the screenshot OP posted is transphobic, but this comment 100% is. Saying trans people are the "karens" of the lgbtq+ community is incredibly shitty.

Then it wouldn't be CS. There'd be no point playing it instead or something like R6

The creator of Floorp posted a reponse to this: https://blog.ablaze.one/4125/2024-03-11/

TLDR posted by the creator: creator:

To put it simply, the current Floorp, including forks, will end the moment I stop maintaining it, so to prevent that from happening, I have prohibited forks. The idea is to solve the user's concern about code transparency by tightening the license when returning to open source, and to create a sustainable Floorp by giving them the choice of paying money or helping with the coding.

Unfortunately a lot of this seems in reponse to Midori, a seemingly hostile fork with a pretty suspcious website.
