It’s a statement and an intervention. Doesn’t have to be literal military aggression to qualify as meddling.

So based on suspicion, potential indications, circumstantial evidence, and bloody hopes rooted in political bias and grabby hands it must be the moral duty of the Free West to liberate all these helpless brown people that just can’t figure out how to start a revolution.
Actually, IIRC they do know how to do revolutions. I think they’ll be ok without your fat fingers in their pie, mate.
Do you think them helpless peasants that require the intervention of big brother USA whenever there is trouble?
Even if Maduro’s government is using undemocratic means to maintain power, who the fuck are the US and EU to take stances on and decide what Venezuela needs?
Let the people of Venezuela decide for themselves. Fuck’s sake.
At the very least it doesn’t handle spoilers correctly
Once. They do not have the ability to learn or adapt on their own. They are created by humans through “deep learning”, but that is fundamentally different from continuously learning based on one’s own actions and experiences.
We are prediction machines, but nothing like chatgpt. Current AI has no ability to learn, adapt, or even consider the future.
Well I upvoted the post so that people will see the comments!
You managed to get your money back?! How?
I think that’s an american thing. Besides, that money is long gone since I made the purchase several years ago.
I asked for a refund when they kept delaying shipment of my Librem 5. I was simply denied and that was it. They told me I could still choose to receive the phone, but I don’t want it since it’s a bad, practically useless product now.
I reported them in my country for it.
If it is dry due to climate change I don’t see how there is an eco-system built around the drought worth preserving.
I’ve got an NVIDIA card, yeah. I’m guessing it’s a better experience with AMD cards.
It’s a bit disheartening that VR is still not a good experience on Linux. I was wrestling with my Vive several years ago now, but I just got sick of dealing with it (literally and figuratively) due to the jitter, randomly breaking features (even mid-session), crashes, and other random things. It was a coin toss every time whether it was going to even launch at all.
It just wasn’t worth it, so it has been collecting dust now for a few years. Was hoping that one day I’d be able to just plug it in and have an ok time.
I don’t remember encountering the particular bug they’re describing. I was hoping it was about the behaviour of drag-and-dropping something into the browser, such as with those “drop a file here to upload”. I am often simply unable to make that work because instead of the thing being dropped into the webpage’s element, it opens the file in the browser instead, which is not really something I ever want to do.
Same problem, 1070, NixOS Plasma
I finally got around to restarting my system after adding hardware.nvidia.modesetting.enable = true;
to my NixOS config and it works perfectly! Thank you for the suggestion. I likely wouldn’t have figured that out on my own any time soon.
Thanks for the suggestion. sudo cat /sys/module/nvidia_drm/parameters/modeset
indeed prints N
, so I’ll try adding that to my system config.
I think the Xorg vs Wayland situation is not too dissimilar to that of Windows vs Linux. Lots of people are waiting for all of their games/software work (just as well or better) on Linux before switching. I believe that in most cases, switching to Linux requires that a person goes out of their way to either find alternatives to the software they use or altogether change the way they use their computer. It’s a hard sell for people who only use their computer to get their work done, and that’s why it is almost exclusively developers, tech-curious, idealists, government workers, and grandparents who switch to Linux (thanks to a family member who falls into any subset of the former categories). It may require another generation (of people) for X11 to be fully deprecated, because even amongst Linux users there are those who are not interested in changing their established workflow.
I do think it’s unreasonable to expect everything to work the same when a major component is being replaced. Some applications that are built with X11 in mind will never be ported/adapted to work on Wayland. It’s likely that for some things, no alternatives are ever going to exist.
Good news is that we humans are complex adaptive systems! Technology is always changing - that’s just the way of it. Sometimes that will lead to perceived loss of functionality, reduction in quality, or impeded workflow in the name of security, resource efficiency, moral/political reasons, or other considerations. Hopefully we can learn to accept such change, because that’ll be a virtue in times to come.
(This isn’t to say that it’s acceptable for userspace to be suddenly broken because contributors thought of a more elegant way to write underlying software. Luckily, X11 isn’t being deprecated anytime soon for just this reason.)
Ok I’m done rambling.
Whatever your reason for saying that is, there is nothing I could possibly reply with that would make you consider any perspective I have to offer. Yet, here I go.
I understand Spanish to some degree because I have family in Colombia, but I suck at using it. I could trivially use a translation tool to help me compose a witty response, but that would change nothing.
The fact that this is besides the point is the very point I’m making: stay. the. fuck. out. of. other. countries’. internal. politics. It’s really quite simple. Unless you are an imperialist, obviously.
