Infiltrated_ad8271, to linux in KDE's Nate Graham On X11 Being A Bad Platform & The Wayland Future
@Infiltrated_ad8271@kbin.social avatar

I think real X11 fanboys are almost non-existent. Wayland wouldn't be so rejected if it wasn't that it still has a lot of compatibility issues, I think most people just want everything to work and don't care whose fault it is.

  • Hibernation into swap files backed by Btrfs are now supported.

So, with btrfs on ssd, is there any use case for a swap partition?

I've never heard of that, it's beyond me. So it's an increased risk when tweaking the kernel? As an average home user it's all right?

Yep. In fact my comment seemed so clear to me that I assumed it was some kind of joke, but looking at the votes, maybe swapfiles aren't as well known as I thought.

@Infiltrated_ad8271@kbin.social avatar

I think it's that one. I certainly won't say it's a panacea, but I assume it would have solved the OP's case.

@Infiltrated_ad8271@kbin.social avatar

This has not been the case since at least w10, it has a tool to automatically clean several temp files and recycle bin.

It is possible, but without access to elevated permissions I gather it would be basically useless for anything other than per app redirection.

Infiltrated_ad8271, to piracy in Louis Rossman/FUTO's YouTube app, GrayJay, now supports Sponsorblock... and shames you if you use it
@Infiltrated_ad8271@kbin.social avatar

Same for me, and it's not even just about sponsors as there are many other categories. How does it help the creators to tell me for the umpteenth time to subscribe or something about a bell, when I don't even have a google account?

Sponsorblock is a wonder, I wouldn't watch certain channels without it anymore.

The gap is too wide to agree, even between europe and the US there is a radically opposite stance between pro- and anti-consumer rights.

Infiltrated_ad8271, to privacy in Gitlab now requires phone number/credit card verification
@Infiltrated_ad8271@kbin.social avatar

Time to delete my account, before it is considered "suspicious" and I can't even log in without verification.

Infiltrated_ad8271, (edited ) to linux in One single partition for Linux versus using a partition table?
@Infiltrated_ad8271@kbin.social avatar

I don't like wasting space or having to predict how much space I'll be using two years from now, so I prefer the minimum of partitions: efi, boot, and system(luks), with a btrfs subvol for /, home, and swapfile.

@Infiltrated_ad8271@kbin.social avatar

They successfully applied the gnome design guidelines.

@Infiltrated_ad8271@kbin.social avatar

How hard do you have to search to find these x11 fanboys? Because whenever this topic comes up, the only detractors I see are users who complain because they can't use wayland for various reasons.

On the other hand those on the other extreme are easier to find, as they always celebrate x11 users (willingly or not) getting screwed; so toxic.

@Infiltrated_ad8271@kbin.social avatar

Having to hack even bulbs to avoid being spied on is a new level in dystopia.

It shouldn't, they are a non-profit foundation that is funded by donations. But take it with a grain of salt.
