@SuperDicq can't make good cars now because good cars are banned, like the 10k no bullshit pickup

All Of The Good Cars Have Already Been Made

@nyanide @sendpaws >for what reason
So they're in an exclusive position of maintaining and keeping control of a large chunk of the graphics stack. X11 is old and has a bunch of people familiar with it all over the place. Wayland is super closely tied to Redhat. More control = more influence = more cash.

This was the modus operandi for pushing Poetterware and is the entire reason for Fedora's existence. If you'd like a sneak peek at what shit they want to shovel into your face next, read Fedora's deprecation notices and long term plans.

@Suiseiseki @phnt @redstarfish @SuperDicq i don't care jack shit about tearing tbh. i played through half life on 320x200 software renderer with 12 fps. i disabled vsync everywhere ti get moar frames.

"tearing" is a bullshit issue for wannabe cineasts, just like HiFi is a meme where no one can hear the difference between 400 years aged VSOP extra thick copper wires and wet string.

@redstarfish I think someone realized Wayland wasn’t working and it it would never get fixed if there weren’t more users.

Solution was to strangle and kill the perfectly functional Xorg to force people to use broken Wayland to get people to fix it.

That feels like how modern software development works.

@Suiseiseki @phnt @redstarfish @SuperDicq Xorg also supports running over the network which i frequently use.

wayland is just a quarter finished money black hole project lacking features except "eVeRy fRaMe iS PeRfEcT!!!1"

How it should have been:

Xorg and Wayland competing with one another to be the best. People choosing whatever they like like.

What's really happening:

Intentionally not merging pull requests that improve xorg. Closing merge requests and issues en mass. Apps dropping support for xorg and forcing people to use wayland.

Instead of "let the best person win", it's "let me win".

@halva All LLM's are inherently proprietary, as no source code results from training - only object code.

Furthermore, all current models constitute copyright infringement, due to removal of copyright information and mixing of incompatible licenses (although it would be possible to train on texts that are under compatible licenses).

It clearly not possible to validly license a model, but so far only a handful have been released under a free license.

@CapitalB i can perfectly well buy a paper ticket to ride a train

wonder if they shut off starlink for ukraine now.

@lain @shibao kinda rant here: eye doctor took a month and lot of phoning around.

blindly importing millions of people with shit health who get the real deal free healthcare as they all live on social security tends to ruin a healthcare system.

worst part is that common people can't even bribe their way into a timely appointment, wE dOn'T dO tHAt hErE. only private insured (which mostly is good for public officers now as they get healthcare costs paid by the state) get preferred treatment.

@genmaicha parts of the internet are. Unfortunately, the rest of the world actively pushes against these parts even existing.
