I see we have moved the goal post to a “technical recession” now.

Ah so the health care system is so bad we have to fight for it now. At this point it is only a matter of time until they make us pay for it. Then it’ll be further enshittified. Things are great 😐

I went to the store a week ago when this was implemented. There were 30% off items everywhere. Presumably people were not buying them and Loblaws had to throw stuff out. They are backing down not because they “listened to feedback” but probably because they are losing money. The greed wins again…

Time to use Firefox mobile with ublock origin

It also tears significantly in my experience, which is pretty unusable…

Docker is just the new apt

Some people work part time tho because the companies don’t want to pay benefits…

Yeah. The alternative is to move to a deque instead of a vector (as deque doesnt require move or copy) which works for me as I don’t need random access, only fast insert and iteration.

I should try this with c++20 and how it does in error messages. Right now I’m on 17…

Resolved the issue. Can’t use atomic in a vector as it is non copyable and non movable. Error messages are horrible and led me to a wrong place. The few layers of classes and templates along with the error message threw me off completely.

I’ve noted that if I removed the atomic, this code also compiles and works without problems. So the problem must have gone wrong there somehow, but only when using emplace_back and push_back(std::move)

Given that a lot of torrents seems to have shows with 1080p or 4k dumped from streaming services, does this mean there are private breaks of L1 that people are not publishing (so it cannot be easily patched)?

I use gnome, and it has a lot of pain points:

• fractional scaling with multiple monitor sucks. Now it sucked with X too but this is not that big of an improvement.
• fractional scaling single monitor sucks with the upscaling system for xwayland. X is also bad with tearing, but with a single monitor you can just font scale.
• gnome fractional scaling sucks as it can cause artifacts like lines and dots to appear at edge of screens. Presumably some sort of division rounding problem but idk. Probably gnomes fault but doesn’t happen on X. Also not Nvidia issue as I run Intel GPUs.
• Wayland gnome has a number of performance and usability problems. Waking laptop from sleep: the mouse cursor will stutter (wtf!) for around 5-10 seconds before behaving normally. Not an issue with X. There are general performance problems with gnome tho so more than likely it is gnome’s fault as usual.
• sometimes when you unplug from monitors, the screen will stay blank for 30-60s, frozen, until it figures out. Probably also a gnome problem but it is not like this on X.
• dragging from the archive manager to decompress file into nautilus doesn’t work under Wayland. May have been fixed, but not in Ubuntu 22.04
• screen share support is broken
• global shortcut is simply not supported because of “security reasons”.

Also the other pain point is how no one cares and how people are like… well it works for me, or they don’t care about stutters, or they say their distro and desktop environment is better, and blaming the user.

Same. I only effectively use one monitor but occasionally I want to plug my laptop to another monitor. It is frankly ridiculous that we have all these monitors with HDR, hidpi, VRR and high refresh rates. We also have technologies to daisy chain them. And Linux, Wayland or not, basically doesn’t support any configuration other than 1080p 60hz sdr everywhere or a single monitor.

At this rate we will be lucky if we can get one of these things well supported in the next ten years. Sometimes, I wonder if technology development rate will accelerate fast enough such that it will reach escape velocity with respect to Linux display development speed. It already feels like we have regressed, and I wonder if it will get worse.

I wish Wayland is not so trash because it is the only place where you can get fractional scaling with multiple monitors kind of working. The gnome implementation is especially trash too, but I use it anyway…

Level of experience?

Yeah I see it for a lot of different communities unfortunately…

“I hate configuring Linux distros which is why I use arch btw”

Actually it seems like the text post is on .ml and the picture is on .world

Sorry. You’re right. I meant to type .world

How is the battery life?
