As one European, one thing that surprised me when I went to Canada was that Canadian police cars (like American police cars) are like an SUV with a big ass rostrum on the front. Like… Those things are built to kill, what’s the point of that. Is kamikazeing into a footed burglar something your police have to do that often? In my country they get a boosted Alfa Romeo, and that’s it. Sometimes they get a BMW for the highways.
Ok, but what’s the situation in this one?
“what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever?”
The same they would share with a believer, because that’s what Jesus told them to do.
Christians like these should just pop all of the bible in clingo to get all their truth. But I guess it would just result unsatisfiable.
Btw, instead of this mental gymnastics, Catholic Christians just write to the Pope (or rather the holy see) to ask pretty please if he can declare their marriage was never real.


The Bluetooth LE settings shouldn’t be necessary for me anymore, I think the package I’m using for xpadneo already packages some settings. Inbefore, that issue would cause latency in the tenths of seconds (not even close to milliseconds) and was extremely noticeable
What disconnecting problem?
My system should be fully updated, I will try an Xbox 360 cabled controller
That’s a flattering thought, but I think that kind of improvement is a pipedream.
The os shenanigans might be the reason tho
You are correct, it also lacks a decorative groove that the “one” one has near the top.
I think the “series” d-pad is the best modern d-pad, especially since Nintendo forgot how to make them just before releasing the Wii u. I’d say on par with classic Nintendo d-pads, maybe a bit less comfortable for platformers though.
On the other hand, the 360 d-pad is the worst most horrible piece of crap ever devised.
I am seeing higher latency even plugged via cable though, even if less so


I think I updated it a couple months ago on this same windows pc
No, kde on amd


yeah, but the point of a platform are the applications it supports, you don’t want to be The King of Nothing. If even after buying into wayland, applications still work bad on gnome because they expect to get support for X, than gnome needs X or to give a better option (better for the applications, not just according to themselves).


PING. Commenting just for the notification. I edited to respond to the other points but in the meantime you had already answered.


The point 2.1 “less to implement in the compositor” doesn’t apply, because for xwayland go work (which is intended to stay around for the foreseeable future) mutter still needs to implement SSD, it’s only skipping on implementing the Wayland SSD protocols.
Points 1 and 2.2 are not strong points. “We do <thing > because we always did before <thing 2>” is not a good point. For example, after all, we always used X10 before Wayland, and we always did implicit sync before last year. And compositor shouldn’t limit programming styles, they should support as many things as possible, and let the application decide their programming design. Plus, most modern applications on windows and macos embed a copy of chrome to display a single offline Web page, but I don’t see you suggesting we replace compositors with browsers.
Point 2.3 is also weak because most of the things a compositor does are already hard, but they implement them because it makes the experience better. If something is hard, it just means it will be worked on more. Take a look at explicit sync, it took like 4 years to be rolled out, but it was necessary and got implemented.
I’ll give you point 2.3.1… in general I think KDE looks pretty bad, and gnome is really more polished in many aspects. Unfortunately I really prefer the KDE workflow on big screens (but gnome on laptops).


You mean about adding SSD to gnome, which will not happen?
As an argument in favour, I see:
As an argument against, I personally don’t see any. Sure, most gtk apps are designed for CSD and will not translate well to SSD, but I just don’t see why that should stop gnome from implementing SSD. I remember the gnome maintainers were strongly convinced against SSD, but I don’t remember their argument
Your intuition is on the right track, but it works “the other way around”.
RGB are additive primary colours, because the colour you see when you look at something that emits light is the actual colour of the light. And so when you mix two coloured lights, the colours add up (additive colours). And adding every colour gives you white.
CMY are instead subtractive colour, because when you look at something that does not emit light, the colour you see is just the light that bounces off of it, while some colours get absorbed. So when you mix paints, the resulting paint absorbs more colours, and you only see what’s left, so the colours subtract down (subtractive colours). And subtracting everything gives you black.
P.s. mathematically, any three independent colours could be used as primary. Independent means that you can’t get any of the three by mixing the other two (i.e. blue, red, and purple are not independent). But those two triplets are the most obvious choices. You might recall that as a kid, they taught you that primary colours were Red, Blue and Yellow instead of CMY, and yet mixing worked fine.
