It isn't that yet. It will be when 0.4.0 releases, which will probably not be in 2024.

It was on the megathread, direct downloads for films and tv shows.

It got brought down because it shared a server with another service, which was used by some "Epstein friends" to upload you-know-what illegal material and that's what brought it down.

I don't think Hyprland has to be unique.... but as it stands, it most definitely is.

It isn't. River 0.4.0 will be turning River into a base to build your own window manager, taking it much further than Hyprland ever could, with a custom protocol, etc.

Oh come on! First, you hate on COSMIC for taking away some of the noob user base, now you hate on other compositors for taking some of your other user base.

Why can't you be happy that there are other projects in this space? Why can't you just be happy that people are now more likely to find a project which works for them? Is it because your own project is losing users, now that people are no longer trapped to it, because it's no longer the only good project in the space?

Even Brodie admitted that you're not completely right on many of your takes, so why not focus on what you're good at, aka writing a Wayland compositor?

Edit: It seems that I should have read the article. He talks about things from a different point of view, but if you're looking to write a proper Wayland "window manager", there is only one real choice and it's not Hyprland, it's the upcoming River 0.4.0 which will use a custom protocol, based on the layout managers that River was already made for. Basically the dev, Isaac, is moving as much of the window management into the "layout manager" protocol to turn River into a base for writing your own Window manager.

It's one of the main project releases I'm the most excited about in the Linux space.

Update: I managed to get it. I still haven't even gone through S5, I just had Seasons 5-7 downloaded so I wanted to make sure I have it all. I wasn't the biggest fan of S4 either tbh. So we'll see where things go from here.

Edit: Also, I really appreciate the lack of spoilers!

Now that you mentioned it, so can I.

Either it's back to normal, or he struck a deal with the Feds.

Only a year? Come on LF! I know you're just a soulless organisation there to provide employment for Torvalds, GKH and others, but you can at least make some SOME effort!!!!

Of all the stupid money pit projects they could drop and focus on Firefox and Thunderbird.... they drop privacy advocacy. Might as well drop the browser engine and MDN, to ensure Mozilla loses ALL positive impact on the world, yeah?????

You're forgetting corporations. That's where big money is at. Business and Government. If we can take away the Government, that would be nice.

Don't forget Recall, aka literal spyware, taking screenshots of your device regardless of whether you're entering passwords, making private searches, using TOR, opening sensitive documents, looking at private pictures. It's all exposed.

I second that. Even my lower-midrange laptop from 3 years ago (8GB RAM, Integrated AMD GPU) can run a few of the smaller LLMs, and it's true that you don't even need a GPU as they can run in RAM. And depending on how much RAM you have and what GPU, you might find models performing better in RAM instead of on the GPU. Just keep in mind that when a model says, for example, 8GB Memory required, if you have 8GB RAM, you can't run it cuz you also have your operating system and other applications running. If you have 8GB video memory on your GPU though, you should be golden (I think).
