My gripe with wayland is how it made desktop environments less composable.

With x11 you could sort of mix and match your DE and WM. I could have all the “it just works” everyday computing from Gnome/KDE/xfce/whatever, and the workflow-boost from a Tiling WM. In some cases, making it work was a bodge but it worked.

Now, with Wayland, your WM is effectively your DE. It’s now a constant choice of “do I want tiling? Or do I want to print something, or be able to change my resolution, or to plug a USB stick and mount it without remembering the arcane incantations”.

I just want to be able to print something, and have virtual workspaces per monitor. I could live without tiling.

The flip side is, migrating off proton is an absolute shitty experience.

I miss the individuality of the old internet. Websites, communities, and users being themselves.

ShitNugget9000 on one forum might be SirReginald79 on another.

Policies set for the community, not the leaseholder.

The internet controlled by a hegemony sucks.

You can run it on pretty much every esp.

I’ve had issues with getting it working on lilygo devices, but had no problem with basic cheap “devkits” from AliExpress.

And how many admissions compared to motorcycles there are.

The ban was specifically in the context of toys.

We banned toy magnets. Magnets for other purposes are still completely legal.

Well, it was legal to do until relatively recently.

Most cellular data providers I’ve seen use CGNAT.

Hell, the last 3 isps I’ve used have also been CGNAT networks.

And with CGNAT, you share your IP with however many other people. Maybe not at VPN scale, but it’s not 1:1 like it used to be.

And supposedly; You’re more likely to die from a donkey than a plane.

What do you use to bundle into one file?

Yet, in other parts of the UK it’s mostly based on who is the most skilful at standing where the bus doors will stop.

Don’t wanna get on last? Git gud.

Now do PM and VOC levels at petrol stations.

Then PM and VoC levels on roads entirely occupied by combustion vehicles, and entirely occupied by electric vehicles.

Most common adhesives will be less effective under hot (ie sunlight) conditions.

If you don’t need it to come off, 3Ms GPH (General Purpose High-temp) VHB tape. 50% of your car is probably held together by it.

Ditto.

But I manage a team of embedded developers. On a specialised commercially restricted embedded platform.

AI does not know a thing about our tech. The stuff it does know is either a violation of the vendors contractual covenants or made up bullshit. And Our vendor’s documentation is supplemented by a cumulative decades of knowledge.

Yet still “you gotta use AI”.

While true; do curl http://copilot/?query=what+is+the+time; sleep 10; done

Bet the AI can’t see through this.

Taking a line from our Australian friends

fuck off, we’re full (of rich cunts)

I have a 25 year old cereal bowl and spoon. I’ve lived in maybe 15 houses across 4 countries in this time.

They used to have twins, but they were lost to the horrors of flatmates.

I don’t eat cereal any more, and haven’t for maybe 10 years. But I’ve got it. I have no idea why I keep it. But I do.

Not quite the same. But my NAS does files. That’s it.

Everything else is hosted elsewhere.
