Same here. I have a few applications that I had to specifically turn on Wayland support for (Thunderbird & Vivaldi, for instance), and a lot that work just fine, and the ones I have issues with are mostly the X-only apps running on Xwayland, which tend to be less stable than they were directly under X, but there are only a few that I still use.

The rest of the page? Probably. I stopped reading after the comic.

Even better: the one-star review on the pre-order page complaining that it’s not out yet!

KDE Plasma handles the touch screen fine on my PineTab2.

It works in LxQt too, but only in portrait mode (which is the default for this device). I keep meaning to look up how to tell it to rotate the touch coordinates along with the display, and I keep not getting around to it.

But the main issue I’ve run into is that most GUI apps for Linux are…let’s just say they’re not designed with touch input in mind.

Makes sense. Thanks!

It’s unclear what evidence Twitter has that former employees who now work at Meta continue to have access to Twitter intellectual property or trade secrets. Twitter responded to a request for comment with an automated email of a poop emoji.

Or for once the poop emoji is an accurate representation of the “evidence.”

Stopped clock and all that.

My main desktop has been upgraded continuously from RHL5 (no E) in ~1999 to Fedora 38 today.

Well, almost continuously. I’ve done at least one fresh install, when I switched from 32-bit to 64-bit hardware.

Edit: I have used a lot of other distros on other boxes, both physical and virtual - I’ve just stuck with Fedora on that one.

Technically true, yes. Useful for the question being asked? Not so much.

I had to check…

O_o

Edit:

Yeah, it was real! Back in 2017.

Checking the certificate of DLL makes it harder to hack. Note that once users’ PCs are compromised, the hackers can do anything on the PCs. This solution only prevents from Notepad++ loading a CIA homemade DLL. It doesn’t prevent your original notepad++.exe from being replaced by modified notepad++.exe while the CIA is controlling your PC.

Firefox as a web browser.

I keep trying email clients, but end up going back to Thunderbird. It still looks clunky, but it works well, and the new UI is in beta, so it should look better soon!

I find LibreOffice to be way too heavy for light notes (My current light text editor is FeatherPad), but it’s a great alternative to Word!

I’ve found that GoToSocial and Calckey both use a lot less in resources than Mastodon does.

Fedora on my desktop, Alpine on cloud servers, Debian on my Raspberry Pi, Ubuntu for work. Also messing around with Arch, Debian, and PeppermintOS on some older boxes.

Last I looked it still wasn’t working well enough, so I decided to stick with Xorg. But that was a few months ago.
