My God… Is the fact that boomers think '60s weed was mind altering proof of time incursions from the dank future???

Vote Blue! Their platform includes

• Small budget cuts to the jackbooted thugs murdering you in the streets!

• Slapping billionaires on the wrist in the court of public opinion, the only court that matters!

• Allowing all of their legislation to get hung up by a rotating cast of party traitors and then backing them to the hilt when a progressive candidate primaries them!

• Throwing money at healthcare industry donors to fix healthcare!

• Restoring faith in American alliances by promising to look the other way when any of our pals decide to genocide those naughty minorities.

• Gerrymandering, but this time it’s us so it’s cool!

Ahem. To be clear, I’ll vote against Trump any chance I get, but we are still totally fucked until we get politicians that can actually stand for something that big business doesn’t donate to.

An anti-DEI fork by a wingnut and a project that isn’t even half way ready to use starting from scratch in a niche language. Neither of which are capable of dealing with the fundamental problem of X, the protocol itself, without becoming something entirely different.

… I’m not holding my breath.

Agreed. I was an early Wayland convert because once upon a time I started writing a WM and taking an interest in X internals… And then my face melted off like I’d opened the Ark of the Covenant.

Things are so much simpler now.

I use KDE Connect remote input on Wayland all the time…

KMag is broken (simply has not been updated, not like it couldn’t work) but you can zoom the entire screen in KDE with super +/- is that not good enough?

Didn’t they straighten out Wayland support? I thought this was a thing of the past as of 555, but I also haven’t run Nvidia myself in years and years.

Wayland is a sports car - modern, tailor made for performance. X is like a '99 Civic that’s had the seatbelts stripped out and the airbags replaced with cameras that let all the other cars on the road see you naked.

It’s fine to prefer X, but the older it gets the more people are going to roll their eyes at you. XWayland is fine for random old stuff, but there is zero reason X should be running your whole display these days.

Inb4 someone mentions network transparency that gimps the rest of the system or some 5000 year old app that needs to sniff events sent to every other program.

Basically, the executing thread might get interrupted in a window of code where the interrupt flags are wrong. Not looking at the specifics, but this could lead to various things from mostly harmless (e.g. potentially holding a lock for many times longer than expected but eventually releasing it) to program crashing (e.g. if taking an interrupt while handling the fault leaves the data structures in an inconsistent state).

This is likely the first one, since it was missed for so long in a very well exercised piece of code.

Are you running the native version or through Proton? When I played Civ VI the Linux native version performed worse than using Proton, ironically. Either way, maybe try switching?

Since you specified multiplayer I’m guessing it’s not time to load from disk or anything.

For ancient stuff, maybe, but AMD is also active in enabling new stuff in the kernel and userspace. AMD basically invented Vulkan, and have had the best open source driver stack for years at this point.

I love what Valve has done for Linux, but it’s the last mile of track at the end of huge amounts of outside work enabling the hardware to work in the first place.

I wouldn’t do a mailing list these days, but as someone who spent the early part of my career interacting with devs that preferred this method, it’s actually pretty ergonomic by a 2005 standard. A message thread aware, text based email client that can turn messages into patches in a keystroke makes it actually pretty comparable to modern code review…

I think it’s hard for younger devs to get this because they’re used to email being stuck in a crappy, unthreaded browser interface or Outlook etc. (which are terrible for mailing lists) and most collaboration taking place in code review and chat platforms like Teams/Slack but for decades before these were feasible, email was the way…
