This is gonna take time but eventually we’ll see adequate replacements for smaller WMs like awesome. Especially because awesome is based on dwm, im hoping that as dwl (the wayland version of dwm) matures we’ll see projects like awesomewl come about.

are you using an nvidia gpu?
Large Wayland projects like KDE and Gnome that are considered member projects of Wayland had the ability to NACK new wayland protocols and proposals. This has historically been abused by a lot of a different projects, in many instamces Gnome because they didn’t want to implement things. A lot of wayland proposals were unnecessarily delayed because of this. The bylaws of how wayland projects are allowed to NACK things has since changed to make it so a single project cannot needlessly block protocols but this was only implemented in the past few years iirc so for a long time this happened. Thats a massive contributor to why wayland development takes so long.

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Not that I or anyone would ever have issues.
8·7 days agoi will say that wayland has solved a lot of multimonitor issues, although most games where i have monitor issues in my dual monitor setup can be fixed by ensuring the monitor i want to play on is at 0,0 on the layout. sone fames are weird about that

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I would like to know what native English speakers think of my writing?
9·14 days agoyou have very legible and clean handwriting, but your proportions reduce legibility. all the letters do not have to be uniformly the same height, many need to be taller or shorter than others. if you look at the early writing books for children learning english you’ll see that instead of there beibg one “tier” for the letters to sit on, there are actually two. Capital letters are twice as tall as most lowercase letters and the majority of a lowercase letter is still in the lower tier, but ascenders and descenders should be full height which helps make it a lot more distinct.

Im a current underground raver across the and thats a sick af experience. sadly we dont have crazy multi day raves where i am but thats because they’d get popped if we threw in a bando past daylight
I care about displaced people in general and stand in solidarity with all of the oppressed of the world. That includes many varieties of Americans including the indigenous people of North America who have been displaced and genocided by Euro-American colonialism and also rural and suburban Americans who are being run out of their communities for the sake of capital and profit. And my heart extends to those outside of the US from Palestine to Sudan to the Congo to every other corner of the Earth.
but AI is increasing the rate at whoch data centers are being built which is putting enormous strain on a lot of communities with aging or inadequate public infrastructure and utilities like water and electricity. Some people have seen water and/or electricity prices double or have even lost access to their public utilities because everything is being routed to a nearby datacenter thats younger than their kids. And in many instances politicians are ignoring the communities they’re displacing because theres significant money involved.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•People who have permanently moved to another country, what gave you the opportunity and was it worth it?
3·4 months agoor it turned out so great that when presented the opportunity they were excited to do so
it pisses me off so much. what do you mean theres no way to set the priority of nameservers or to force them to be resolved in a specific order? no i don’t want a public nameserver thats only there as backup to take precedence over my local nameserver thats necessary for kerberos to work!
I think the biggest problem is that developing each other underlying subsystems without the rest is a hassle. As such no one has come up with a non-systemd dbus replacement. But there is a lot that can be replaced. There are some systemd services i just turn off immediately woth new installs and use something else because they’re such dogshit (looking at you resolved).
god i fucking hate systemd-resolved
if sysv init or open rc are ed and sed, then systemd is Visual Studio or Pycharm; they have some functionality that overlaps but they scopes of what they do are completely different
So people hate on systemd because they interpret it as an init system thats gone too far and has thus violated the unix principle. in reality systemd is an entire suite of tools based around a very feature rich and robust service management suite that also includes an init system. there is something to be said about the Linux ecosystem’s reliance on systemd, but there are no comparable tools. this is why Arch uses systemd. if you dont want to use systemd, you can use distros like Arco Linux; however currently Gnome no longer works on Arco
There are various forms of sexual assault but they violated his consent and then continued to engage in a sexual activity. that’s rape.
bluetooth can be a common frustration point, but the Windows shared folders should work. Do you mind me asking what you’ve tried so far?
meanwhile i set a wait and save so i have time to finish getting ready and uber tells me it’s already arrived.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•how can I stop spiralling about my breakup?
1·8 months agoDefinitely hang out with people and try to have fun, it’ll help take your mind off things and begin to remind you who you are outside of the relationship.
But I’m curious why going on a walk with a friend in nature would be cheating? Hanging out alone with someone of the gender(s) you’re attracted to isn’t cheating. While everyone has different definitions of cheating I think most would agree that violating your partner’s boundaries around sexual, emotional, or romantic intimacy is usually what constitutes cheating; hanging out with a friend in a purely platonic way isn’t cheating and if your partner made you think so that’s a bit of a red flag in my opinion.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•how can I stop spiralling about my breakup?
1·8 months agoExist in and feel those emotions, and then let them go as much as you can. As others have said, time will heal this wound. Don’t run into the arms of someone else or try to numb this pain; it’s important you feel it. Rushing into another relationship will only bury this pain by putting you in an unhealthy situation; numbing it will only lead to bad decisions and possible substance abuse. Let yourself feel this way, as horrible as it feels, and understand that it won’t be forever.
You will be okay, and to be honest you will probably be more than okay. In a period that seems impossibly long now but laughably short at the end of this, you will become a better, stronger, and healthier person with a greater capacity to love and the wisdom of who better to give that love to. It is difficult, but you will survive. And then you will thrive. Love yourself and ride this out. You got this.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How long is a meter? (Only weird answers/definitions allowed)
5·9 months agotake a meter stick, now cut it in half. glue it back together. a meter is probably a little bit longer than this since you lost some material cutting.



at least the positioning is being discussed in a wayland protocol, but its been heavily delayed due to wayland bureaucracy.
