That's also why I always use dev containers

You may see shorts in lemmy in the near future because of that.

Slack calls disabled for firefox users, but if you change the user agent to chrome it works...

well, yes, but for e.g. I wrote a software piece that happened to be only a hotkey daemon. And I could write it with X. Now, hotkey daemons are no longer a separate thing unless the compositor exposes a grab API. Which never going to be in Wayland protocol, because they consider this client server architecture a problem.

There's hope. Thanks for letting me know.

Now instead of having Wayland covering everything, applications try to cover every desktops. In the good old times, it worked everywhere.

Why does flameshot need to handle different wayland desktops separately? Because simply the protocol doesn't do it's job. It doesn't cover everything. It's indeed not ready.

I think it kills the community. Making a Wayland window manager is so much harder to do than an X one. This monolithic solution solves the problems of Gnome, and KDE developers but less people want to be involved in windowing systems. I'm just being sad for X11, because, although it had nonsense features, it made linux desktop applications compatible with every desktop and we had huge variety of wms, compositors, desktop environments. Personally I'm still on X because of bspwm, but eventually there will be wayland-only features which will slowly kill X.

there are products that I would buy if I would know they exist but I don't because they don't have enough money to do advertisment. It's inherently an unfair competition. The only ads that I would like to see is a tematical search for all of the buyable products and services.

I'm a contractor and I use linux if that counts :D

If they want to fight hard, they just add the ads into the stream.

In a perfect world we wouldn't have ads.

 

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share my recent experience with gaming on my laptop. While playing CS:GO was manageable, CS2 was a different story. My laptop kept hitting thermal limits, causing frustrating performance drops. So, I decided to do it myself and repaste it.

I wrote a simple script to monitor my temperatures and frequencies: thermalog script.

The results speak for themselves: thermalog results.

I wasn't even near to thermal limit even when I played in 2K instead of FHD.

I used Arctic MX-6. (I bought liquid metal also as a backup plan, but luckily I don't need it). I'm more than happy with the results.

My laptop is four years old, I highly recommend giving it a go if you're facing similar thermal issues.

Happy gaming!
