Droid on Linux will be what pushes me finally to Linux only!
I prefer X desktop to stay as every time I get on wayland something doesn't work right. On X desktop everything works flawlessly. They need to complete wayland first before trying to force people to use it.
When is Tuxedo releasing their ARM64 laptop?
About Wayland… and this is why you don't just have standard specs. You need standard implications. And Wayland is the most over engineered pile of s**t ever tbh.
Thanks Nick.
My big problem with Wayland is that the client controls how it renders. The thing I like most about X11 is that the display server can force the client to behave. One of the biggest problems I always had with Windows is that graphical clients can't be controlled by the user, you can ask the program to behave itself, but you can't force it to behave.
I think the Winamp criticism is absolutely unfair. Yes, it should not be advertised as "open-source" but that is the only problem. It is still better that we can see the source, learn from it, and even though our trusted organizations (distro maintainers) cannot distribute binaries, they can still be generated and checksummed to confirm that the official distribution is made from the same source as advertised. Also being able to contribute code to an, essentially, proprietary project is still an improvement because you can fix things that personally frustrate you. This is still better than using the thing anyway because it's good but accepting that, for what you know, it might as well be malware, and being unable to do anything when something is broken. On top of that, knowing the source will also make it quite easy to patch the binary if that is, for some reason needed. Distributing binary patches has never been stopped in court yet
Winamp's repo also contains some utilities they're not allowed to distribute, as well as commercial QT binaries. Obviously the current holders of the app have no idea what they're doing and how software works.
BTW the rule about not forking the project was removed from the license since it literally breaks Github's TOS for public repos
It's not even about stability with frogs protocols. Regular Wayland protocols need to be extremely well thought out for every edge case and every use, because it aims to be the standard for something as generic as displaying stuff on screen. This is why decisions can take years. Frog protocols will allow devs to just go and implement something so that current users can just use Wayland normally, meanwhile the regular Wayland protocols can still decide on the exact specification that is good for everyone. Then once it's done, the desktops will implement the wayland protocol which is now set in stone. In other words, frog protocols are just temporary solution to implement things such that they're ready for production use but with knowledge that the exact spec might change later and it's not a universal protocol everyone should rely on.
HAHAHAHA and they laughed at me for having CUPS disabled for security
The new format is ok if it is easier for you but the sound quality is much worse. I canot stand this sound.
For some reason having a door in shot annoys me , i like a wall with a poster or the stereotypical fake book case, yes i understood the background is temporary
One thing I'm wondering about the Android support in Proton is how it'll handle all those Android games that run in portrait mode on devices that have landscape screens. Providing virtual screens, so you can run several side-by-side, perhaps?
So how is it run with no authorization or user input if the user has to utilize that fake printer? It's definitely RCE but the seriousness of it I don't feel fits what's capable. With this exploit I can send a packet to your computer that says that I'm a specific printer with whatever information I want and that's fine but you still have to select me to print. So there does have to be user input.
One of the first things I do on any fresh install anyways:
`sudo systemctl stop cups-browsed.service && sudo systemctl disable cups-browsed.service`
Talk about chat control
I donโt have CUPS. I use Arch btw~
Wayland is having talks about being more like CSS, where different protocols are implemented in different compositers while being fleshed out. This should make the changes happen much faster, but there will be software that will not be updated to the stable version. If they do this, it should be highly expressed that only large desktop environment projects are expected to implement the experimental version of a protocol, as they have a much higher chance of reworking the code to support the changes.
For Ubuntu
sudo snap stop cups
sudo snap disable cups
ficou top, pae!! Quem sabe eu ainda me jogo nessaโฆ Quem sabeโฆ
34 pages of open bug reports in 4 days on the Winamp repo. Looks like the internet has been awakened
Hope the guy who found the vulnerability got a bounty payout after that frustrating experience.
It would be REALLY funny if Stean gave support for Arm and Android games only to Linux and never gave that to Windows.
Maybe someone knows, but what Linux distro is indestructible today (in terms of file system)? I have several cheap chinese SSDs which degrading just by storage (incredible garbage) and btrfs Ubuntu-type Pika Linux there failed miserably, it's died by corrupted certain symbols in the parts of code. This file system cannot restore itself or repair the code. Maybe someone made distro of self-repairable file system, i want to test that.
Gonna say, whoever that port forwards CUPS to the internet is…living on the prayer
"We love to benefit from your work, and you can eff yourself" /Winamp
I wish Vavle brought Proton to Android instead of Android to Proton. With current performance you wouldn't be able to run AAA games but having few indie games on your phone on the go could be nice. You wouldn't have to rely on games in google play that are infested by predatory microtransactions, you wouldn't have to rely on having good data plan and connection for streaming and you could play new games instead of playing only retro games.
Maybe in the future this will happen.
DAMN JUST NOTED THAT MY FEDORA INSTALLED THE CUPS FIX GOTTA REBOOT MY PC AFTER WATCHING THE VIDEO TO ENSURE THE UPDATE IS APPLIED
Bring modern developing practices for projects such as Wayland, 100% agree
Valve mentions ARM64EC โ Windows 11 ABI some games already compiled to, executes on ARM, supports mixing of ARM and x64 code. That is running Windows on ARM games on Linux ARM.
I think the Android support that Valve is trying to do is for the VR games that are being developed for Meta's VR systems. If they succeed, then Valve could probably release a VR system and this will indirectly improve support for VR on Linux and more! ๐
All I can see is the lint on your mic … I might have an OCD problem though ๐
Che bello Nimona, come trama, come personaggi, e a livello visivo!
Visto l'approccio recente di Disney e Pixar, viene da dire "meno male che non l'hanno fatto loro". Sembra che negli ultimi anni abbiano fatto film annacquando le storie e infilando a forza alcuni elementi solo per soddisfare una checklist, senza che avessero un senso (girl power โ , disabilitร โ , neri โ , …).
Un po' come certi vecchi progressisti che ti dicono "anche io ho un amico gay/nero/diverso" ma senza capire realmente che senso abbia il rispetto per le diversitร , insomma, solo per posa.
E che sappia raccontare bene una storia bella per fare una cosa bella, un buon film, e non per evitare critiche.
Ps ho guardato il video mentre lavavo i piatti ๐
isnt winamp owned by aol/warner? the original person got out waaay back.
so its not unsurprising considering how "friendly" they are to the world…
the cups vulernability may go a lot further too. keep your eyes peeled.
Now I understand why one meme made OpenSUSE a Gigachad distro, actually Nick had complains about CUPS being firewalled in default settings of OpenSUSE… it isn't that bad now ๐
in relevance to linux "vulnerabilities : local network security portion(LAN and its mechanisms) still one problem, and PIPEWIRE. i believe pipewire is a vulnerability. its a weak point.
while talking slightly off topic inspired by some things mentioned in the video : in the ancient times, i TAUGHT people using "leading by examples". that DIDNT WORKED. they sent me up the stake. when you show your fellow humans leniency, they will abuse it . these days, my role is a judge. either humans do it right or go to EBA.
"teaching" was 2 thousand years ago. this is the final exams. so what have humans learned so far?
A steam deck competitor with an arm cpu would be insane considering the battery life implications
