bitwolf,

Anyone know the song? SoundHound and now playing failed me

bitwolf,

Readably

No RSS reader is quite like it.

Synfonium

Best music player out there.

bitwolf,

Wow Horizon looks so much better in comparison.

I thought the first game looks nice but only decent. Hyped for West to hit steam sales

bitwolf,

It dictates the location and size of certain keys.

For example the needlessly large enter key on ISO or the annoyingly small left shift key in ISO. You could very likely prefer ANSI as well.

bitwolf,

Yes however you’re the only one talking about the alphanumeric keys.

bitwolf,

Hey I just had tacos and we have the same plates. Uncanny

bitwolf,

I dont know, it seems like a gratuitous purchase.

“AI”

Well damn, why didn’t you tell me, I must have this now.

bitwolf,

Oh good maybe more cities will have nice bus systems

bitwolf,

Bitwig studio

bitwolf,

My people!

bitwolf,

Love Facebook container, but never tried multi account containers thanks for sharing!

Would love for it to be available on the Android version

bitwolf,

Forejo offers the ability to login via githubs oauth provider.

bitwolf,

Glad to see it finally happening. Wayland has been an amazing experience for several years

bitwolf,

I’d say Dex is pretty cool. Thats really all I’d like to bring over to Google Experience personally.

Hoping it drops in 15 for Pixels

bitwolf,

I’m quite happy with the centered hole punch on the latest Samsung made displays. Much less obtrusive than the notch and I can actually see the status icons.

I’d still prefer a full bezel speaker HTC M8 style though.

bitwolf,

Isnt it a felony to threaten someone or something?

bitwolf,

It goes really deep, worth the read.

They offered a tool to remove the rootkit that just silently installed another one.

bitwolf,

If you’re buying a Nintendo console for 3rd party games you’re going about it all wrong tbh

bitwolf,

I agree completely, especially under the video game preservation viewpoint.

I lost a few DSi games when the store shut down so I only bought switch cartridges. However I haven’t touched it since I got a Steam Deck because I know those games will last

bitwolf,

Discord would work if they ever updated their electron version.

bitwolf,

My ground for it working with hyprland but it required some hacking. I could ask him what he did if you really want hypr.

Personally I use gnome and plasma and both work great with everything. Discord has some jank but works… Barely

bitwolf,

And now, back to your regularly scheduled approved programming!

bitwolf,

The movie “Other life” demonstrates how this could go wrong.

bitwolf,

I imagine it would fail CTS and SafetyNet. Kind of curious if shizuku works on it

bitwolf,

That should be an ADA violation

bitwolf,

Damn where do you work, I’d gladly fill that seat. I’d take Ubuntu over Windows any day.

I actually like Gnome but I’m so tired of Microsoft shops.

bitwolf,

If not colors its vertical and horizontal :)

bitwolf,

Hey, how do you get the creative Commons attribution to automatically appear under your comments?

[SOLVED!] On an Android phone is there an open source method of compressing files?

I have to submit a document for employment and they want my passport but my passport photo is 5.49 MB and they say you can’t upload anything more than 5 MB. How can I shrink that file on my android phone without paying some service?

bitwolf,

Too soon lol

bitwolf,

Is that with a locked bootloader and sandbox google play?

bitwolf, (edited )

they have to find new ways of competing for business

Yeah haha. Regrettably doing right by the consumers because a competitor is.

Although I would not be surprised if they find a way to make a money pit out of it. (Such as not being chill like Sony and releasing on steam, forcing users on to the Windows store)

bitwolf,

They could stand to make a bunch of money reselling old games with 4k, vrr, HDR, and calling it remastered.

bitwolf,

That was seemingly really only to dunk on Sony and secure another year of sales.

bitwolf,

You lost me at “females” Kirk. Talking like they’re science specimens.

bitwolf,

Well in that case using just “female” is ambiguous. Are they banning female horses from breeding also? All female animals?

When speaking publicly I imagine someone would think about possible misinterpretations. Wouldn’t using “Woman” fare better?

bitwolf,

I remember the competition on speed. And Google publishing the response time on the results page as a way to showcase it’s speed over the competitors.

Dell is so frustrating

Dell has got to be one of the most frustrating companies that put out a linux laptop. They put out a laptop certified for ubuntu but then never support newer releases. A big part of their hardware is always proprietary drivers like webcam, fingerprint reader etc… Then you update to a new LTS release because lets be serious...

bitwolf,

That’s surprising to hear because my Skylake XPS 13 had everything upstreamed and worked flawlessly.

LVFS support too. Are you trying with an XPS 15?

bitwolf,

If you are checking out the extent of damage on your system do not use ldd to check the links.

You can inadvertently executed the exploit this way.

bitwolf,

Ubuntu 8.04. Was still in elementary school at the time.

I thought the themes were really cool, especially the compiz effects.

bitwolf,

Cosmic is not gnome based

bitwolf, (edited )

Unfortunately unless you buy hardware with the intention of running Linux on it you’re rolling dice.

It is very likely your laptop can work well with it but unless you buy a Linux certified laptop you’re going to have a few quirks. Generally, if it comes down to it, the Kernel code can be adjusted to accommodate the quirks of incompatible hardware but that requires reporting the bugs.

This is why people say Linux works great on older devices. It’s because Linux users got the laptops brand new and put in the time to report the bugs the needed parties so they get resolved and included in newer Linux (kernel) versions.

Actually a lot of these issues stem from a long history of Microsoft breaking standards and manufacturers catering to Windows. This is especially apparent with ACPI which ties into power consumption and sleep reliability among other things.

If you buy supported hardware, manufacturers specifically test and align better with standards (often offering a Linux mode in the bios). Linux actually “just works” better than MacBooks do. Some laptops Ive owned and loved are:

  • Thinkpad t480
  • Dell XPS 13 (Developer Edition)
  • Framework Laptop

The last two of these go the extra step to publish their bios updates through “LVFS” which means I can get bios updates, OS updates, AND app updates all from the “app store”. This is so underrated and a far cry from the windows experience.

If you want to use Linux without quirks and you have the capability to, consider getting a Laptop that ships with Linux. Key things that play into this are wifi and sleep compatibility.

Please don’t judge Linux unless you try it on hardware that is all supported by Linux. (The great thing is you can take action, even without coding experience, to make your hardware work if it does not today).

As for the software experience, Nvidia is notorious for difficulty with Linux but have been taking strides to change that. I feel that in a years time things will be better.

This specifically affects the Wayland compatibility (modern display stack), which also influences the touchpad experience especially around multi touch (Wayland is paired with libinput a modern input stack).

I think that’s out of date, or refers to the old customized gnome extension, of the same name, that pop currently uses called Cosmic Shell.

Cosmic desktop is in rust, uses iced, and doesn’t even use mutter as it’s compositor.

wiki.archlinux.org/title/COSMIC

If you look at the source for the new cosmos components they don’t have any gtk.

github.com/pop-os/cosmic-session/…/Cargo.toml

github.com/pop-os/cosmic-files/blob/…/Cargo.toml

Edit:

Yep, seeing the Tumblr post we’re talking about different things. You mentioned above the Rust based DE so it’s easy to conflate the two given your previous responses

bitwolf,

Yes however you’re conflating the names of both which is where the confusion lies.

Cosmic is a portion of Pop Shell, which is what you’re calling “Gnome-based Cosmic DE”. This collection of gnome extensions forms what is called Pop Shell. The cosmic here only refers to the extension that modifies the dock, workspace and configuration changes and is not a desktop environment.

Cosmic DE refers to the “rust based” full desktop environment called Cosmic DE which has nothing gnome within it.

bitwolf,

I don’t see the words “Gnome-Based Cosmic DE” anywhere in those screenshots…

They do however mention “Gnome based desktop environment: [named] Cosmic”. Which my point still stands. This is “Cosmic” which consist of Pop Shell.

Cosmic DE, again, is the name of the Rust + Iced desktop environment which is what I am stating has nothing to do with Gnome.

They have two different names, and I spoke for the latter.

😅

bitwolf,

Yes. That is the link I clicked, which you sent me, which is also where my screenshot is. In that link they state that the cosmic-epoch crate is part of Cosmic DE which is rust + iced based.

You said this yourself at the top of the thread. 😅

In fact, I have just been quoting from the links you sent me. I write software for a living, so I read very carefully.

bitwolf,

You : I have bug with cosmic
Dev : which cosmic?
You : you know cosmic
Dev : which mf cosmic? \

I would say “Cosmic DE”, as I have been saying the whole time, just like they have named it.

If I am able to identify the specific component I would specify the submodule of Cosmic DE which is linked in the repository named cosmic-epoch.

If I wanted to report an issue with POP_Shell which is a part of COSMIC I I would go to the repository called Cosmic.

I have been restating this and restating, the fact that you’re conflating my response with what you have been calling “Gnome-Based Cosmic Desktop”.

bitwolf,

I always found the whirling noise surprising. One can clearly hear the wheels which are as loud as the speaker.

And if you’re deaf neither will help.
