Dunno when you played it but they’ve added tons of shit in the past years, so it might be worth it to give it another chance.

That is a very useful article, thanks for linking it!

The difference might be HTTP vs HTTPS. On a Pi the extra CPU load to properly encrypt the HTTPS stream is probably significant.

HTML 5 isn’t a programming language! (Yes, I’m a nerd)

This isn’t about replacing javascript, this compiles something that looks a bit like Python to C and then to WASM. Which browsers can run natively these days. But you can do that with any source language if there’s a compiler for it, type safe or not. You can compile Rust to WASM too for example. So nothing’s getting replaced, these are just additional tools for Web developers.

I’m now pondering hooking mine up to a BBQ somehow…

Yes

If you switch between doing it locally and accessing your machine remotely it makes sense. But if you stay entirely locally then your DE or compositor is probably way more powerful and easier to use than a multiplexer. Unless you stay entirely in text mode and don’t even have a GUI, then it starts to make sense again I guess.

Nah, my desktop is for gaming 😄 Also I do most of my coding on a server I ssh to anyway.

You realize that the plane pictured, an SR-71, possibly the coolest plane ever made, has been phased out many years ago? Another sign the USA isn’t what it used to be! /s

Pretty much agree with most of his post. Terminal multiplexers are useless on your desktop, but great on servers you ssh to.

Wild ideas aside, zellij is really nice as just a terminal multiplexer though 😅

That’s a really weird and dishonest take. If a compositor wants to implement that feature it absolutely can, Wayland or not has nothing to do with it. I’m just saying it isn’t implemented the way you want in the compositors I know of. Seems like all it needs is compositor developers who want what you want.

You can configure this with window rules and autostart apps when Hyprland starts. That’s not remembering what you had open the last time, but it will probably give you the experience you’re looking for.

While I agree that listing those separately is a bit odd, none of the Ubuntu releases you name are rolling releases. Debian testing is a very different experience.

4 is the best “old” civ in that it still has square tiles and doomstacks. Also the modding scene is insane for 4, massive total makeovers that make it a completely different game, far more interesting mods than any other civ game.

Good to hear how it compares, I was curious about that but reviewers aren’t talking about it.

They stole that and some other mechanics from Humankind, a game by the same studio as Endless Legend. It wasn’t received that well in Humankind either, so I’m kinda surprised that they stole it anyway, but I guess line must go up and they didn’t have a lot of inspiration themselves?

This simply isn’t true. FF on Android is fine and allows you to use tons of extensions for far more things than ad blocking, such as the wonderful Consent-O-Matic that automatically deals with cookie popups for you. Huge timesaver on mobile.

I have read them. While Vaxry makes his points in typical Vaxry fashion he’s not wrong IMHO.

I think it’s ridiculous and unprecedented to demand that other open source projects adhere to the rules of another project. If more projects would do that then where will it end? The big COC wars where camps of open source projects are split and fractured along opinions of how one should moderate their own communities? This is not the way to work together with others.

The demand was not about Vaxry’s own behaviour outside freedesktop, but about his community. I disagree that behaviour there reflects on freedesktop itself. Hell, I think a lot of people who use Hyprland couldn’t even explain what freedesktop is and does.

So in my opinion Vaxry was right to refuse the demand, and right to publish the email conversation about it. Openness in open source about these sorts of things is important. His hostility in writing about it is something else altogether. Feel free to judge him on that, but it doesn’t retroactively excuse freedesktop’s behaviour.

Last part isn’t true, he was banned for refusing to give his own community a COC that was compatible with the freedesktop one. Which is quite an overreach IMHO.
