  • Compared to untyped languages? Sure. Compared to C or C++? Then maybe it's a skill issue 😋

  • Yeah, a common NVIDIA L.

  • The devs aren't anybody's lackeys either. Many are doing it for free in their own time. If you dont want Wayland, then support X11 with code, money, or documentation. If you don't support the X11 devs and maintainers, then you're making a decision to let it die and nobody's "forcing you" to use Wayland.

  • Do you have a recent graphics card? How long is "never"?

  • I dont know how old your card is, but NVIDIA only recently decided not to be complete gobshite on Linux and newer cards should be safer (from what I've read). AMD has been stable on linux for the last decade or so while NVIDIA (aka NOVIDIO) was a terrible actor on Linux and the community had to reverse engineer a lot of their stuff.

  • Sure, but you were talking about gitlab being terrible. I made a comment about one of its shortcomings (which isn't terrible, but not great either). If you wanted something terrible about gitlab's devops, you should said so.

  • Buys an NVIDIA GPU, complains it doesn't work with Wayland. Classic.

  • Gtlab will never implement federation on their own. ForgeJo is working on it as we speak.

  • Mozilla Appoints New CEO Anthony Enzor-Demeo

    Jump

  • Mozilla is a floundering fish that instead of focusing on coordinated movements to get to one place, it spazzes out, wildly fighting for it's life. My prediction (and hope) is that Ladybird and browsers built on top of Servo will supplant Firefox to take away Mozilla's revenue and kill the entire org.

  • Had no idea, thank you!

  • Rust Coreutils 0.5 Released - Inching Toward Full GNU Compatibility

    Jump

  • Rust haters are just a hilarious species. It's like they are paid Russian trolls blowing everything out of proportion, making nonsensical arguments, and always whining about one thing or another.

    I can't tell if these are real people or just bot and sock puppet accounts operated by suckless.

  • And yet, people think that current opensource licenses are working. We need something like PostOpen or FUTO licenses to force corporations to contribute or pay up.

  • As usual, everything on US infrastructure. Only Github is supported, no other avenues for funding. @rust@social.rust-lang.org how about liberapay or other alternatives?

  • HDMI Forum is unwilling to disclose the 2.1 specification for open-source (Linux): according to AMD, they had submitted a functional, HDMI 2.1-compatible driver [for linux?], which the Forum rejected.

  • Oh, for sure lawyers would be pissed, but DRM was cracked multiple times and ended up in distributions. H264 is patented and still linux distributions can use it. CDs and DVDs were ripped with opensource software after their encryption was cracked (master key retrieved from CD/DVD players) and that was also distributed in order to play them. Popcorn Time was hosted on github for a good while. There are many examples.

    If HDMI2 were leaked, I'm confident it would end up in a linux distro and there isn't much the lawyers could do. They could play whack a mole to take down the domains hosting it, but then somebody would just out it on a torrent or host it in a country that give a fuck about the lawyers and that would be that.

  • HDMI support can be released as a kernel module. It need not be an entire kernel. That can be put on a repository and reviewed, included in distribution, then built on installation using DKMS. That's how most opensource works.

  • What do Linux kernel version numbers mean?

    Jump

  • "Kernel version numbers are easy"
