  • Dude just ban me, I'm not going to change, it's how I like to write.

  • So why are you replying?

  • Na I'll always be hostile it's more fun, I would less hostile if people stop the with telling what works for them, like I'm going to fucking get the same setup as dem. You do understand that there's more angles than one, and not stopping and thinking yourself about the issue at hand and making weird assumptions without looking up anything, is kinda annoying after a while.

    Because that is how most people are on Lemmy, it's so hard to just have a discussion because you always have some people make counterpoints that fucking suck ass, and not based in anyone else's reality but their own.

    If I wouldn't be hostile I would just stop writing, and it's not like I'm angry, it's just sounds funnier.

  • No worries, I would like you to have it in written statement.

  • Well I don't have GTX 2080ti, and I don't like my computer sounding like wind turbine for playing a 7 year old game, so those performance benefits means something to me.

  • I still use x11 with suckless dwm, but for work I'm forced to use Ubuntu 25.10 gnome shit. It's a sad state. Gnome owns all the process you start via gnome, that is why if gnome dies all the child process es dies as well, genius. Because the buggy mess, doesn't critical errors and never will have...

    I don't know how you use gnome, if it doesn't crash for you, fine, good. But that's not my reality, it can crash because I open the laptop screen while being on an external monitor. It can crash because I'm screen sharing, it can crash because some software I used froze, it can crash for random reason (doesn't happen often, but still annoying).

  • The event loop shit is a gnome issue I have, I haven't tried it with KDE but I wouldn't be surprised if the issue remains, where if you are switching windows/workspace to often the gnome event loop doesn't register that you have released the key because it's to busy fucking rendering the window/ Workspace switch.

    We obviously don't have the same use case, so if it works for you all power to you. But it sucks balls, the way I like use my laptop when I'm working. Can't even do simple shit as to rebind a key, please find a working guide for kde or gnome, surprise they don't work, and it's fucking baffling the amount of different guides of how change keybindings and how many steps they require you do to, but they even work, why is that?

    Why doesn't Wayland support fucking a config file, where you define key bindings, why does it not allow to copy shit from the terminal via xclip or any other method, it's like we went back 50 years in time, dude these tools existed 25 years ago.

    Wtf is this, it's lacking so much functionality and also performance is worse, you get more performance from xserver like 20% more fps, just try playing a game and turn on the fps meter, and compare them. Wtf is this, how do you build something new based on prior knowledge but it's worse.

  • Wayland is a protocol, and major desktop versions like gnome and Kde implementation sucks balls...

    Desktop crashes, oh there goes all my applikations that I started, gnome can't keep up with switching workspaces because doesn't fucking register the release key event. Fuck me dude xorg had no issues with switching windows or crashed barely crashed, gnome crashes 2 times a day. Oh sorry dude you want to use a custom screenshot tool, sorry dude, can't allow that, have to do some weird workaround.

    Oh you want change keybindings, no sorry dude can't don't support it.

    Oh you wanted to automate window/workspace switching via scripts, you have inject fucking JavaScript into our runtime to query windows ids and state..

    Jesus what joke of an implementation, it's the anti theist of Linux. Everyone got fooled and allowed GUI developers implement the rendering backend...

    And the best of all: hey do you want make software for Linux, sorry you app doesn't work in KDE because the whole implementation of functionality you're using is different from other Wayland implementation, can you plz fix in kde and gnome?

  • Anyone tried 'Zeitkapsl' as alternative to Google Photos?

    Jump

  • Sure, but whatever the method they use or how ever your app works, it's only temporary. You have no control of the future of what said company does, or laws they have to follow.

    I'm just saying the internet should not be considered private if privacy is your concern.

    That's it, the rule of Internet

  • Yes the free tier version is Foss.

  • Why would you use that? It's not Foss, has an ugly name and it requires root to run?

    I don't know why I see this shitty thing being recommended by so many, the service is just bad..

    There are others which are better for windows, that are Foss and you can modify them quite easily. I tweeked scoop as an internal company software center, the software repo is managed via git and it was so easy to do that.

  • Where do you get that germany has repented for everything bad that they have done?

    I still read news where certain African countries are seeking reparations and damages for the genocides that Nazi Germany committed, but Germany doesn't accept that it was genocide, but according to experts it was genocide.

  • It might not have taken your job, but jobs has been taken. Some one at the office was sharing in chat professional photo of him self by just cropping his face and giving it to Gemini. So no need to hire professional photographer anymore (at least not as much).

    And you are naive to think that the economy doesn't effect you having a job or not, who is going to pay you? Will your workplace be able to compete, are your customers still in business or are their customers still in business, or will they even use he same providers.. there a whole chain of effects that is going to happen, when AI actually gets good enough (and it will), to do stuff good enough
