X11 runs the whole desktop on the lowest refresh rate and Wayland can run each monitor at a different refresh rate

Wish I could do that too but my email is still tied to some accounts where I can’t change it

Have the same issue on one of my accounts. I can login but when I try to do anything, I need to verify by getting a code over SMS. The thing is, the phone number on that account is an old one I don’t have access to anymore. There is no other verification option, I can’t delete it from my account without verification and I’m definitely not adding my actual number.

I don’t see how your fingerprint could be used for advertising

Idk about that. What data could they get with that, that they can’t already get through other (cheaper) means, that would justify all the network traffic and storage space?

The latency is insanely low on Pipewire, which is important for rythm games like osu!, that’s why I originally switched to it. It’s also really cool how it’s compatible with all other audio backends as well.

I hope GTK and GNOME (or is GTK part of GNOME?) adopt this, I didn’t even know just how bad the inefficiency with todays cursors is. Having a single svg for each cursor and rendering it server-side makes so much more sense.

Did someone already open an issue for this?

I think this makes sense. I still need X11 for VR because GNOME still doesn’t have display leasing on Wayland but once that gets implemented I won’t be using X11 anymore. I think most people don’t need X11 anymore either. For people like me who still need it for specific things, it can just be installed again manually.

But I think espeak doesn’t sound that great. There is probably better open source TTS now.

Yeah, that makes sense. Does kinda suck.

You can’t really apply that to every messenger and WhatsApp is what’s used almost exclusively

I think they’ll still work without Steam, otherwise you couldn’t play them offline either

Performance isn’t the only issue. This system would also not let you play offline, without being logged in and you couldn’t have mutliple saves or replay the game.

You could install it without a desktop and then manually install only the packages for Plasma with Wayland but idk if that’a really worth the effort

It’s actually 0.6 FPS or 1.6 SPF (Seconds per frame)

It’s really cool how a lot of Laptops nowadays (including mine) have a feature built-in that covers and disables the webcam with a button press. I can have it disabled most of the time and when I need it, I just press the button to enable it.

That’s really cool. I also heard about a Skyrim mod that does this too and since I’m playing Skyrim in VR (modded ofc) that would make it even cooler.

If you’re interested in KDE in particular, you should also check out Nicco Loves Linux. He’s one of the KDE developers and makes a lot of videos about it.

This is very interesting, I think I’ll try that out. I wanted to give GIMP a real try at some point anyway.

YouTube Vanced was DMCA’d because they distributed the whole apk, which is why Revanced exists and only applies patches to a YouTube apk you have to get yourself
