isVeryLoud,

I’m a GNOME developer, and KDE is unfortunately the gaming and colour accurate work desktop at the moment.

Kinda wish the GNOME committee would pull its head out of its ass.

isVeryLoud,

Astroturfing, but I just launched lemmy.ca/c/shrinkflation today, if you want to post your Oreos.

I hate opening Oreos, whippets, etc. and just seeing those little plastic pegs in the packaging where three cookies should have gone instead. >:(

isVeryLoud,

Pixel 3a and 3a XL have some amount of support on PmOS

isVeryLoud,

As a workaround for now, you could make a bot to enforce the rules. It would delete any post containing an image or an embedded link to an image.

isVeryLoud,

KDE very recently implemented some HDR support thanks to Valve, GNOME is still waiting on some PR getting merged.

isVeryLoud,

Use KDE on the very latest kernel on Wayland, in theory it should work well but YMMV.

isVeryLoud,

The idea is that the base should be open, so you can build whatever you want on top of it.

isVeryLoud,

You know these are volunteers that work for free, right?

(Constructively) What is your least favorite distro & why?

I’ve been distrohopping for a while now, and eventually I landed on Arch. Part of the reason I have stuck with it is I think I had a balanced introduction, since I was exposed to both praise and criticism. We often discuss our favorite distros, but I think it’s equally important to talk about the ones that didn’t quite hit...

isVeryLoud,

Manjaro always broke on me. I can’t even trust them to keep their SSL certs up to date.

Sorry Manjaro devs, no hate, I just got burned way too many times by this arch-not-arch frankendistro.

isVeryLoud,

Are you sure those aren’t the muffins? :P

isVeryLoud, (edited )

I’m an early gen Z, I’m 25 right now, and have been on the job market for 8 years so far.

I’m tired, I’m overworked, I’m stressed, I’m looking for upward mobility in my domain but every company is making cutbacks, withholding bonuses and holding pay increases.

I’m a software developer. I’m working a main job and freelancing on the side to make ends meet, and it’s still not enough.

I invest in my future with things like RRSP and FHSAs, I have some luxuries (small car, a dog because what is life if it’s completely miserable?), and it hurts every time I get a necessity because everything goes to rent, food, clothing, etc. and grocery bills are always close to $200 for 2 people, even at the cheaper grocery stores.

Everything’s down on quality, nothing lasts, so we either have to buy things over and over, or save up a ton of money to pay luxury prices for a decent product that won’t break the very fucking second the warranty expires.

We’re getting gouged as much as possible. My group is particular because we started our careers slightly before or during the 2020 pandemic, where companies learned that they could gouge the fuck out of everyone on necessities, and people starting out fresh are hit the hardest as they don’t have savings or mature investments.

isVeryLoud,

Good idea, stupid name.

Excellent for causing FUD.

No, this will not increase the amount of kernel panics you see. It just makes them more informational to the average person. Technical folks can disable it, non-technical folks won’t know how to enable it, so on by default it is.

isVeryLoud,

The joke here is “dodge bullet”, as in “dodged a bullet”. You can stop complaining now.
