Bitrot, to linux in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 Dropping The X.Org Server Except For XWayland

Currently Gnome will only allow you to connect to a logged in session. It is more like screen sharing than RDP usually is.

If only they contributed to the kernel maintenance workload.

Make sure you test out those images every so often too. I recently got a new computer and used clonezilla to copy a system over, only to find btrfs restores fail spectacularly without warning until you boot into them.

Bitrot, to linux in Yes, Ubuntu Is Withholding Security Patches for Some Software
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

The title is. The article itself is pretty generous.

Bitrot, (edited ) to linux in Canonical lifts lid on more Ubuntu Core Desktop details
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Snap has the ability to do the base system in a much more modular way and could be really cool for an immutable system. Forcing them on desktop users with their transitional deb packages and making it heavily integrated with only one repository really screwed it up.

Bitrot, (edited ) to asklemmy in Which books have the worst video adaptation?
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I’ve never watched Disclosure nor finished the book, but it seems like one of the few they should have been able to get right.

I enjoyed Sphere, but I haven’t read the book and watched the movie close enough to compare them.

Braid tugging and poorly written female characters aside, a very large number of the interpersonal problems in those books could be solved in anybody ever talked to each other. The nobody ever trusts anybody or talks about an issue gets kind of irritating. Even if he was going for realism it is pretty over the top.

Kind of like how a large number of Seinfeld episodes would be over in five minutes if they had cell phones.

I imagine they couldn’t get the rights to The Lord of the Rings in order to adapt book 1 of Shannara.

Bitrot, to asklemmy in What's an alternative to Spotify that doesn't play you the same fucking songs over and over?
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Pandora sort of has some of that but not so far in depth. You can customize with crowd favorite songs or hits or deep cuts or discovery. Their library is much smaller though, and you’re stuck in a genre based on the station for the most part.

That isn’t automix, that’s smart shuffle.

Automix is only enabled on a few playlists, and not Liked songs.

If you’ve ever listened to a dance album where one song merges seamlessly into the next, automix does that. When you hear a playlist using automix it is very noticeable.

Bitrot, to asklemmy in What are your thoughts on people being doxxed for ripping down missing israeli posters?
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

The Guardian has a good article about the tribalism going on right now (theguardian.com/…/us-support-divided-israel-pales…).

Any empathy is seen as a betrayal right now. It’s imo also one of the reasons things are so terrible to begin with.

Bitrot, to asklemmy in Why don't public restroom stalls have OPEN/OCCUPIED indicators like porta potties do?
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Probably.

Most stalls are bolted together pieces of cheap metal with the most basic latch you can imagine. If an indicator adds 10 cents to the cost it’s not going to happen.

Bitrot, to linux in Gamedev and linux
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

This went in a different direction than I expected, in a good way.

Bitrot, to asklemmy in What do we get in return for paying taxes?
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

The aqueduct?

Bitrot, to news in Paris police shoot woman at station after threats
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Train station seems like an important detail.
