Sure, it’s hard to craft a perfect solution. However the status quo for a long time was that applications were doing it themselves. And Wayland took it away without providing a replacement.

I had been led to believe that one of Wayland’s strength was solving the correct window coordinates save-and-restore problem. Does someone know what happened here?
It’s literally the opposite. Windows aren’t allowed to position themselves on Wayland (because it’s unsafe or something). Window state save restoration must implemented by the compositor itself. Not sure about GNOME, but KDE doesn’t have that.
Dial the Gate. Series of interviews with people involved in making of Stargate TV show (not just actors bit people at every level). It’s over 200 episodes now.
Well GTK does not have theming anymore, though it still needs some way to configure fonts and icon theme.
Nah, this is patented by Sony.
Does it really matter? It’s the usual corporate intrigues/power struggle/backstabbing/whatever. Just for some reason leaked into public view instead of being behind the scenes like it’s normally done, probably because someone is stupid.
Low effort tickets are ignored because they are bullshit.
High effort tickets are ignored because devs are lazy and can’t be bothered to deal with complex and boring issues.
Well, at least that’s how I roll as an open source developer lol.
It’s still not enough time for KDE devs to fix all major issues with Wayland. It requires at least another two years in the oven.
I wonder if they consulted Plasma devs about it. Sure they said that they aim to make Wayland ready for Plasma 6, but it didn’t sound like it was an actual plan for 6.0. After all they got their hands full with Qt 6 porting, and there are still major roadblocks with completing Wayland support, while 6.0 is about to have its alpha release already.
Knowing Fedora devs however, I suspect they didn’t. They switched to Plasma Wayland by default several Fedora releases ago, when it was in no way ready. I guess I will switch to a different distro when this time comes.
Exynos Samsung batteries. Tensor is based on Exynos, and S23 has only Qualcomm variant. That’s why Pixel 7 drains battery faster than S23.
I don’t care about gaming performance on a phone, but battery life in Pixel 7 have been worse than in competitors like Galaxy S23.
Maybe it’s a corpo thing, how big is your company?
DLSS is upscaler. Game is rendered at lower resolution and then image is upscaled in a bit smarter way than simple “stretching”.
iPhone 15 Pro owners are using it wrong
What? I’m a Hodd Toward, please learn to spell names correctly!
Nah they should just upgrade their PCs
This happens on most Android phones, including my Google Pixel with 8gb of RAM. I noticed that it starts doing this when battery drops below 50%. Which is weird because it surely takes more resources (and thus drains more battery) to cold start an app every time instead of just keeping it in memory (provided that app doesn’t do anything nefarious in background which is easy to detect). There is plenty of RAM for that.
It seems to be fully backwards-compatible with standard JPEG. I.e. image viewers will that don’t support newer formats will display it as if it was a JPEG file with SDR colors.
Also, HEIF/HEIC is patented format that you need to pay royalties for. Open formats are obviously superior and there are multiple ones that support HDR (there is also open variant of HEIF that uses AV1 encoding but I don’t know whether Android or iOS support it).
They are personalised by the “bucket” that data collection companies like Google or Facebook placed you into based on profiling. Browsing and search history is only one of the factors that is taken into account when you are profiled, there are myriad more ways to collect data about you.
And then what ads you see is determined by what advertisers think your “bucket” wants. If you are male in your 20s living in rural USA and advertisers think that males in their 20s living in rural USA are interested in guns, then that’s what you will see - even if you never clicked on gun ad or searched for guns on Google.
Not just license. You also need to link to it as a shared library and allow users to replace it with their own build of the library. Meaning you can’t use stuff like DRM and anticheats.
