None of the numbers are centred.

[โ€“] lurch@sh.itjust.works 8 points 8 months ago

the yellow one is centered to the universe

[โ€“] wiikifox@pawb.social 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

If you see the numbers out of center you have terminal cancer

[โ€“] ElBarto@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

How long do I have doc?

[โ€“] wiikifox@pawb.social 1 points 8 months ago (2 children)

The sum of all those numbers, in months

[โ€“] ElBarto@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Couldn't it just be the grey one?

[โ€“] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Hooray!

[โ€“] Zagorath@aussie.zone 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That's less than 2 years.

[โ€“] wiikifox@pawb.social 1 points 8 months ago

You need to count the yellow one too

[โ€“] rooster_butt@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

The 0 is pretty good

[โ€“] sag@lemm.ee 8 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Intel HD 4000 integrated graphics now you can laugh on me

[โ€“] camelbeard@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I have an nvidia card and don't game, that Intel might be the better option.

[โ€“] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago

Yep. If nothing else, your electricity bill is gonna drop.

If your processor is a kid, they're in middle school now.

Returning to this post cause I am running waydroid on nvidia wayland right now! to reach lemmy :) (amd igpu)

[โ€“] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I tried to get that working on X11 with Xwayland on an Intel 2nd gen i3 GPU... didn't work no matter what I did...

[โ€“] WeLoveCastingSpellz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

it requires wayland

[โ€“] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

So I have to have Wayland installed in order to use the bridge ๐Ÿคจ? That kinda beats the point, doesn't it?

[โ€“] WeLoveCastingSpellz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

xwayland doesn't run wayland on x11, it runs an x11 server on wayland. abd waydroid requires wayland.

[โ€“] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 4 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Huh... no wonder it didn't work ๐Ÿ˜‚.

Yes, I was trying to get waydroid working on X11 BTW.

[โ€“] WeLoveCastingSpellz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

there is older projects like anbox I thinkbif you absolutely beed the android apps

[โ€“] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago

Yes, I also browsed that, the project is abandoned though ๐Ÿคท.

Don't think my phone runs Nvidia... or Wayland ๐Ÿค”

Let me introduce you to running postmarketOS on Nvidia Tegra SoC. /s

[โ€“] pewgar_seemsimandroid@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 8 months ago (2 children)

i didn't even know Nvidia already had mobile chipsets

[โ€“] Dudewitbow@lemmy.zip 4 points 8 months ago

tegra x1, used in the pixel c, switch, and nvidia shield tv

[โ€“] edinbruh@feddit.it 1 points 8 months ago

There's the Nvidia Shield tablet and some old Google Nexus that runs on tegra. Also if you are one of the unlucky People that bought a Windows RT tablet expecting it to run any program at all, you might have a tegra. Also the Nintendo Switch has one.

Fun fact: if I'm not mistaken, the Nexuses used nouveau.

[โ€“] UprisingVoltage@feddit.it 4 points 8 months ago

Funny numbers you got there

[โ€“] drew_belloc@programming.dev 3 points 8 months ago

My old nvidia card runs like shit in wayland, plasma not even open

[โ€“] Tugboater203@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Im not falling for this, it's just a bunch of grey dots.

[โ€“] GarlicToast@programming.dev 1 points 8 months ago

If you don't see how unaligned the numbers are, you are drunk.

[โ€“] palordrolap@kbin.social 1 points 8 months ago

squinting real hard at the yellow: "for... the... love of... God... my... anu" oh I know this quote.

[โ€“] hyauzane@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Theoretically many phones use a edited X11.

[โ€“] edinbruh@feddit.it 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Obviously that's not true... like, at all...

Android phones use Surface Flinger, which is a compositor that has nothing to do with either Wayland or X11. But we could say it's kinda similar to Wayland in the fact that it's composited and uses something similar to GBM and GEMM for managing buffers.

Android drivers don't even use the same "semantics" as Linux drivers (android uses explicit sync, while Linux is implicit, but they are working on supporting explicit sync because Nvidia and because it's better). It's only in the last few years that you can use Linux drivers in android, plus some synchronization stuff.

[โ€“] hyauzane@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Surface flinger code has some X11 code, I didn't say it ran X11, I said it just had some of it's base, GBM and GEMM have been only appeared in the new versions of Surface flinger.

[โ€“] edinbruh@feddit.it 1 points 8 months ago

surface flinger has some X11 code

Does it? I don't know for sure, but I'm extremely skeptical. Can you point to the source of this claim?
