I thought "Meta" was AltGr and Super is the "windows key".

What a non sequitur.

Radio silence on both world and ee account. Probably busy with a shoot.

It also has rocks.

And caves.

And caves with water probably.

Now that I have read all his comments on the other thread, I don't think they are genuine. There are some words and phrases that a beginner to intermediate English user would not be able to use. That, along with certain statements about perceived dissing on North Korea, and also their inability to verify their identity broadly somehow, make me believe they are fake.

Or maybe the right questions haven't been asked.

How is swipe writing supposed to work? I've never seen it in action by someone IRL, and whenever I've tried it myself, it seemed to be way too much hassle vs just typing shit and using predicts to auto complete.

"Copyright" theft. Hahaha.

The experience was horrible with nouveau. KDE Wayland kept crashing, so I've switched to Xorg & xfce4 in the beginning, which still kept producing artifacts. I've then dug into it and found out that some 47x driver is the one that is the most compatible with my card.

I've tried switching to nouveau once more a couple months later during a kernel update, and while I've managed to stop Xorg from producing artifacts on the screen, the performance on just xfce4 was horrible, something definitely sub-20 fps rendering rate. I've mucked around a lot with drivers and reboots at this time though.

This was my experience with it too. Until I realized that the issue everything boils down to is having an old gfx. In particular an old nvidia gfx that has old, closed source driver compatibility only and can't initialize vulkan. I've still stuck to it, it's arch running on my desktop, because I'll upgrade hw components eventually. 12 years with a gtx 670 has been quite enough.

I've installed fedora workstation 41 on a decommissioned work laptop last week, a 2021 model with an 5700U, and everything just works out of the box. Some obscure game that I've been trying to play on my desktop, not even platinum rated on protondb, launched on first attempt without any shenanigans using heroic launcher.

Nvidia, especially older models, are probably just simply not the way to go for gaming on linux.

But that's not how it works now, does it? There's plenty of FOSS alternatives. postfix, mailcow, dovecot, openSMTPD, just to name a few. I'm sure the US government used or still uses postfix under the hood in certain circles btw, even if most of their IT provisioning just deals with Exchange.

mic_check_one_two did not mention anything related to Switzerland. They've mentioned Sweden.

Yes, it probably has its issues with vague wording. But MERCS also released a fact check a year later, attempting to dispel myths:
