Wayland's been my daily driver for a few years now, mostly without incident. However, occasionally certain applications (Ryujinx and pcsx2, predictably) require the GDK_BACKEND=x11 environment variable to be set before they'll function.

The current bicycle market appears to be operating under the assumption that transportation is a competitive sport. A thousand dollars? Ten thousand? I'm still clinging to a 2012 Diamondback Edgewood, a testament to a time when a bicycle was useful. It cost approximately the price of a decent dinner twelve years ago, and continues to function with an almost unsettling degree of competence.
I wonder if the pursuit of 'premium' has simply resulted in a more elaborate way to experience mechanical failure.
If you're seeking a pre-packaged solution for leveraging the Kokoro-82M text-to-speech model, you might find the 'Kokoro-FastAPI' Dockerized wrapper… adequate. It seems to function, at least for me.
I recently had a concerning experience with a vehicle that resulted in a near-miss incident. Following this, I attempted to report the driver’s actions to a police officer. The officer’s response was unfortunately unhelpful. He primarily focused on my position on the road, suggesting I should have moved further to the shoulder. I decided to disengage the conversation at that point and reported the interaction to a superior officer, but received no assistance. I was then advised to use the 'painted bike lane,' despite its frequent blockage by parked cars, effectively forcing cyclists to navigate a route filled with debris and drainage issues. I explained that state law doesn't require cyclists to use bike lanes when they are obstructed, but the overall impression I received was one of indifference towards cyclist safety. It’s frustrating to feel that a report of reckless driving isn't taken seriously, especially when it involves the safety of vulnerable road users.
Breakdowns are inevitable; a good night's sleep is often the most elegant solution. :) I utilize Zim (for note management) as plain text remains a perfectly serviceable option, imo.
It is undeniable that the current system for producing chicken in supermarkets often involves conditions that cause suffering. The chickens themselves endure hardship, the workers involved in the process face challenging circumstances, and consumers find themselves with limited choices for affordable nourishment. Seek alternatives like supporting local farmers who prioritize ethical practices, or explor other sources of protein. This is not merely a matter of personal preference, but a reflection of our interconnectedness and a step towards lessening harm. 🙏
Mastering the command line? A few observations. First, consult and take notes (yes, even seasoned terminal veterans forget syntax.) Secondly, embrace tab completion. It’s your friend, and a surprisingly effective substitute for remembering every single command. Third, the true test: procure a VPS or remote server and exclusively use the command line. No GUI crutches allowed. It’s a digital wilderness, and you'll learn to navigate it.
Lastly, and this is non-negotiable: keep a terminal window permanently resident on your desktop. Consider it a vital organ, deserving of its space. It’s a constant reminder of the power you wield, and a readily available portal to a world beyond the pretty buttons.
Interesting point. It's surprising how much nuance there is in the world of Linux. PrivacyGuides and Privsec rightly highlight some legitimate concerns regarding Debian's approach. The expectation that package maintainers should backport security patches rather than simply updating to the latest upstream version is a rather peculiar quirk.
Let's just say my last attempt at automated cleanup didn't go well (my desktop disappeared!) Now I’m a collector and keep everything.
Reasons? Despite their flaws, the prequels remain connected to Lucas’s original vision, making them a worthwhile watch for understanding the Republic’s fall and Anakin’s transformation.
Sure, The best implementation for my case was to use WireGuard as DNS and as proxy to stay within my own LAN. Then I enabled the firewall to block everything except LAN network connections. This can be done by going to settings, universal, and enabling everything, then creating an IP rule for 192.168.1.0/24 (and/or network settings 'do not route private IPs'). You’ll see the logs/stats flood with connection requests. Create whitelists of your apps/stuff you trust from the log and allow only those. I’m certain this is a blunt way to do what I wish to have done, but I simply do not want anything to update or connect to anything besides my own self-hosted services and a couple of developers I trust.
When choosing a graphics card, I've generally found AMD/Radeon to be a reliable option. I’ve used several different Radeon GPUs in various builds, and they’ve consistently performed well. Nvidia users sometimes encounter compatibility issues, though that isn't universally the case. Vulkan is a strong API and provides a good experience.
