    Why I Use XLibre Instead of Wayland

    Jump

  • Fake. The "gaming issues" was the lack of direct scan-out, which for most people who gamed with v-sync enabled anyway changed nothing, I'm speaking in the past tense because Wayland has had direct scan-out for years, and it did not require a complete re-write of anything, it only required a new extension, which you can do when your protocol is based on extensions. You know what's even better than direct scan-out? Vrr, which you can have while using multiple monitors each with its own refresh rate, and with the future frame timing protocol the experience will be even better

    Also, "in my experience" means nothing. In my experience gaming on Wayland is perfectly fine, and my experience is worth the same as yours

  • At least mutter and kwin both handle multiple monitors and vrr perfectly, I'm sure other compositors do as well. And by handle I mean actually treat them like two displays, not "we make a single virtual display and output it on two ports while pretending all monitors have the same refresh rate" like it is on xorg

  • And what is the technical merit in question? "Everything we didn't change works the same"?

  • Daaaamn, good thing that the main selling point was "everything you used before works the same". I guess it does not have feature parity with xorg, huh?

  • Oh, oh, I just noticed another inconsistency without even trying. You know all the babble about hardware support scattered throughout this and most anti Wayland posts, that it's mostly about nvidia? Well guess what? Xorg has literally worse nvidia support! That's right, X11 works on Nvidia only because the proprietary Nvidia drivers ship with an Nvidia specific implementation of the xorg server, but if you were to run real Xorg and not Nvidia xorg, it would have the same problem you have on xwayland. Except that with xwayland you get all the compatibility benefits of the recent move explicit sync in Wayland, that you would miss on plain xorg, so you would get all kinds of synchronization issues.

  • You need to understand that Xorg is not a good piece of software by itself. Its entire value is staying unchanged and not having breaking changes. Once you remove that it becomes unuseful. On top of that, meetux did not introduce "breaking changes" in the sense of "new features that changes the API" he introduced "errors that slipped review" because he is not good enough to write code for Xorg. What did he say, that he is anti-dei and, and we should only include people based on skills? Well then he should be glad that he was excluded because on top of being an asshole he also lacks skills.

  • Wow, that wall of text you linked sure is worthless. First of all, you can't even tell if it's signed by three different people or a single arrogant one, either way just sad, and in any case it's only one sysadmin. But you can just scroll to random points without reading and find contradictions.

    For example, I scrolled and found the governance part, it says on X11 there's standardized protocol and changes go through a democratic review process, but the same is true for Wayland, the people who develop Wayland are the same who developed X11, and Wayland is heavily standardized, but the protocol is subdivided in extensions of which many are optional. Then it goes on saying that by contrast on Wayland you have a dictatorship of compositors because each can implement parts of the protocol as they see fit, but this doesn't make sense because if anything having a single server that decides everything is a dictatorship, while allowing desktops to decide what to support is democracy.

    I won't waste time reading all that, but I'm sure it's like this throughout.

    Also, the IT guy from your local high school is probably a sysadmin managing 500+ computers. It's not a particularly qualifying position.

  • Ethical carnivory

    Jump

  • Irrelevant argument, even if it's actual meat it only means that the carnivore diet is still meat. The role of the carnivore in the ecosystem (i.e. regulating the population of their prey) is still not covered, and the idea is still stupid

  • why I use xlibre...

    Because you are delusional. Next question?

    Just remember that this is the kind of code quality of xlibre, the guy doesn't even know C operators and is trying to write a fucking display server:

    Meetux was banned after breaking the xserver multiple times, and then acting like everyone was conspirating against him about it.

  • Ethical carnivory

  • Have you... Have you read the tumblr post you are commenting under? It is about feeding meat substitutes to animals... And the top level comment I was replying to is saying "that's not how ecosystems work"...

    Also, I never said vegans want to make wild animals vegan. If you didn't say I was antivegan I would have never mentioned vegans in the first place. I am not against vegans as I have already said literally one comment ago. I am under a post about feeding meat substitutes to predators, making fun of people who think we should feed meat substitutes to predators.

    No one thinks...

    This is just factually wrong. Many people (often religious, but not necessarily and from various religions, not mostly, just often) base their view of the world on that idea. They probably won't say it out loud like that. We call people with this kind of ideas "conservatives" but of course that's not the whole thing, not all conservatives believe that, and it's not just about that, I'm making a very loose statement here.

    I will stop commenting about the sexist part, honestly if after I explained everything of what I said you still don't get it, that's on you.

    Edit: before you comment (because I know you will) when I wrote "[...] go eat vegan, but don't tell me [...]" that is not saying that vegans say animals should be vegans. That is addressed to you specifically, who are lecturing me that I'm anti-vegan for making fun of people who think we should feed meat substitutes to animals.

  • No, you see, I don't care about vegans, people can eat what they want. Animal ecosystems have nothing to do with that tho, and forcing human morals into the animals' behaviour is detrimental to the environment (i.e. you are forcing the animals behaviour and domesticating it to fit your ideal). So, please, go eat vegan, you are free, but don't come telling me we should seitan to lions because "think of the poor gazelles being eaten". Lions are not evil for eating gazelles, and gazelles are not the good guys because they are the eaten, they are just animals behaving how they evolved to behave.

    There also is no sexism in that, you just went "oh, he doesn't like vegans, so he must be one of the people with all that shitty ideas I don't like" and decided to warp what I said as sexist in your mind. If anything it is anti-sexist, because the idea (of which I am explicitly making fun of because I do not agree with it) that all women are weak and all men are all uncontrollable predators, and we, the strong, should keep women separate from men for protection is extremely sexist in multiple ways (it is also why Christians say women should wear long dresses, and Muslims say women should wear a veil, which are both considered sexist).

  • Ah, but you see, they have read the first part of beastars and the got bored, so they know that carnivores are evil and we should defend herbivores from them, like we should defend females from men (also evil)

  • Say no to BAYES

    Jump

  • Now that I think about it, I think my teacher called it just "lussac's law" because you cannot pronounce "Gay-Lussac" in front of a classroom of 14 year old boys. I guess you are right about the stories, but I'm not sure the name actually helps with that

  • Say no to BAYES

    Jump

  • I'll admit that was a bit of a stretch. But I also think the naming thing is a problem. Especially in mathematics, even when it is not named after a person, you often have no clue about what it is from just the name (i.e. what do you think is a magma in mathematics?)

  • "Being a memelord is good actually" - Lenin, probably

  • He didn't, I am saying it right now. I'm propagandating (propagating? Propaganding?) on behalf of my anti-statistics agenda. Calling it a capitalist tool of misinformation is a statement targeted to this audience. Calling for deportation of statisticians is to add graphicity and strength to my statement. The quotes make it look like someone's quote.

    You see, I'm trying to pick up this piece of advice for myself
