That’s a weird way of saying :

I’mma pull bullshit out of my ass with no evidence.


why would you care about a far away government collecting intelligence about you over the one that can (and will) actually hurt you?

Both of you are dangerous in truth. We don’t trust anyone. (⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠)⁠>⁠⌐⁠■⁠-⁠■ Why do you think we use FOSS?


You really just compared “African leader” to “a monkey”. I can’t, I can’t believe it. The irony, the sheer irony, it’s delicious, so very delicious, keep feeding me more of this shit.

You’re completely miss understanding the entire thing. You’re dear lead is being compared to an iconic, childhood beloved, Disney, cartoon bear 🐻, and you think it’s racist? How foolish.


this you?

Funny how you went from saluting the American flag to being a Chinese propagandist.


You’re the only one “comparing Chinese people to yellow animals” in truth. Your Irony is delicious to me.



False. “Chinese people” aren’t being compared to “yellow animals”. The only thing happening here is your dear leader looking like a cartoon Bear 🐻.


Just because your dear leader looks like a cartoon bear, that doesn’t make us racist.


Hell yeah!! So many needed fixes that have been bugging me for a while are finally fixed!!

Why should we have the same standard for two fundamentally different languages with distinct design philosophies and features?
Even if the C coding standard was used, it fundamentally will not make Rust more legible to C-only kernel devs. Imposing the C coding standard on Rust would be fundamentally counterproductive, as it would undermine Rust’s safety and productivity features. Rust’s coding guidelines align with its design principles, promoting idiomatic Rust code that leverages language features like ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes.
This ensures that Rust code in the kernel is safe, concurrent, and maintainable, while adhering to the language’s best practices. While the C coding standard served its purpose well for the procedural C language, it is ill-suited for a modern language like Rust, which has different priorities and language constructs. Having separate coding standards allows each language to shine in its respective domain within the kernel, leveraging their strengths while adhering to their respective design philosophies. Having separate coding standards for C and Rust within the kernel codebase is the sensible approach.

If it’s a native app then it’s fine, else if it’s just a chromium skin then that bullshit can fuck off.



In any case, it’s the temporary file directory so it should be fine to delete them manually.
Just make sure that podman isn’t running while you’re deleting them, assuming it is podman.


This error is caused by a compatibility issue between Wine’s RandR (X11 display extension) implementation and the NVIDIA proprietary drivers.

a. Install winetricks and run winetricks orm=backbuffer glsl=disable This will configure Wine to use a different rendering method that is compatible with the NVIDIA drivers.

&/Or

b. Use a tool like Q4Wine to configure the Wine prefix and set the “UseRandR” option to “N” This will disable Wine’s use of the RandR extension and use a fallback method instead.

That should fix it.


I’d like to add that the current Cosmic DE in use is an ageing fork of Gnome and is going to be replaced with a Rust-based DE called Cosmic (Epoch) soon.


Look, even if Biden wanted to, he can’t just waltz in and set up a full-blown social credit system like they have in China. The infrastructure and technology for that kind of comprehensive, government-controlled system just isn’t there (yet). If we can pass the right bills to block that kind of technology from being used for this purpose in the first place, then it really won’t matter what other laws he tries to push through.

And you know, even in places that seem to be “credit-only,” you can often still get by without a credit history, In many cases, you can actually talk the private owner or landlord into giving you access based on other factors, like your income, rental history, or whatever else they’re willing to consider. Sure, it might be a bit more of a hassle, and the landlord or business might give you a harder time. But the practical restrictions you face are nothing compared to what you’d see in an actual government-run social credit system. In those cases, you’d be completely shut out from entire aspects of life based on your social credit score - no wiggle room at all.

The credit card and private sector restrictions are honestly pretty minor compared to that level of government control. When it comes to renting, for example, if a landlord decides not to rent to you because you lack credit history, that’s really just their own personal decision as the property owner. The government isn’t mandating that. And the whole credit card system itself is run by private companies, not the government. These are financial tools that businesses have created, not some government scheme to monitor and restrict people’s lives.

The key distinction is that a true social credit system, like what they have in China, is directly controlled by the government. They’re the ones setting the baseline standards and dictating who can access certain things based on this overarching social credit score they’ve assigned to you. It’s not just about your personal finances or what private companies decide - the government is the one drawing those lines and controlling your access to basic services and opportunities.
In that kind of system, even if a landlord was willing to rent to you, they might not be able to because you don’t meet the government’s required social credit threshold for that particular region.
They’re essentially “redlining” people based on this government-run social credit system, in a way that goes far beyond anything we have with private credit cards and loans.
That level of comprehensive state control is a whole other beast compared to the more limited, private-sector driven credit systems we have.

A major component that makes China’s entire social credit system work is they’re huge surveillance systems of high tech & low tech spy mechanisms like intrusive cameras, facial recognition software, automatic law enforcement systems, AI integration, web surveillance, “great firewall of China” and much more.

So while I agree Biden is pushing some concerning legislation on things like hate speech and nonprofits, that’s a separate issue from actually implementing a social credit system. Our focus should be on preventing that kind of technology and infrastructure from taking root in the first place. That’s where I think our efforts need to be directed.



What’s the WINE error message you get with the proprietary driver?


Font rendering is complex and depends on several settings and features lining up perfectly. Anti-aliasing, DPI, fractional scaling, hinting, and subpixel rendering are all important factors that contribute to the quality and appearance of text on a digital display.


On KDE plasma the fractional scaling also plays a role in text rendering. Then there’s also the “Legacy Application Scaling” for X11 apps on the Wayland session.


You can’t lose credit by calling Trump a cock gobbler. Credit control’s what you can afford/get based on debt history. Social credit controls every facet of your entire life based on how “good” a citizen you are. Imagine saying “Biden clearly has dementia” then not being able to get on the bus because you just got a -20 infraction for bad mouthing the holy Lord and now you’re completely barred from all public transport.
This is a very real scenario of China’s CCP controlled Social Credit System.
I’d like to avoid that for the US by blocking the technology from being used in this manner.
Also, I don’t have a credit card. (⁠⌐⁠■⁠-⁠■⁠)



Check your install paths when you uninstall them. Do the files from the packages still exist?


Are you perhaps accidentally booting from a system snapshot?

If regulations don’t get put in place fast enough, then the US is seriously going to be China 2.0.


It’s should definitely work then. MTP usually doesn’t leverage USB Gadget, but this one seems to.


Not sure if that’ll work for SteamDeck-to-LinuxPC connection, but I’m certain that works for SteamDeck-to-Android.
It is using USB gadgets, so it’s worth a shot at least.


I found some directions that might help.

Enabling USB-C OTG Device Mode :
Ensure the Linux device has a USB-C port that supports OTG functionality.
In the device tree, set the dr_mode property of the USB OTG controller to “peripheral” or “otg” to enable device mode.
Configure the TUSB320 USB-C controller (or equivalent) to operate in UFP (Upstream Facing Port) mode, which allows the device to act as a USB peripheral.
Configuring USB Gadget Drivers :
Load the appropriate Linux USB gadget driver for the desired functionality, such as g_ether for Ethernet over USB, g_serial for a serial device, etc.
Manually configure the USB network interface, such as assigning an IP address to usb0.
Connecting to a Host :
Use a USB-C to USB-C or USB-C to USB-A cable to connect the Linux device in OTG device mode to a host PC.
The host PC should then detect the Linux device as a USB peripheral, allowing file transfer, network connectivity, or other functionality depending on the configured gadget driver.

Kernel.org Driver-API USB Gadget
Collabora Blog Modern Linux USB Gadget integration with Systemd Part1

Rust library : usb-gadget
C Library : libusbgx


Possibly. But from my research it seems to really depend.

the USB-C ports on the two PCs need to support USB OTG (On-The-Go) functionality, which allows the ports to dynamically switch between host and device modes. This is what enables the direct PC-to-PC communication over the USB-C connection.

Explaining the joke :

I’m making fun of the fact that all browsers on IOS are required to use WebKit.


Idk about OP, but for me the entire widget menu position saving seems to be completely broken not just for the kickoff application launcher widget’s menu. The position saving feature is a relatively new thing anyway so I’m not too worried about it. I didn’t even notice it until OP’s post, lol.



I also have this bug. It seems that widget position saving is broken atm.









> Porn sites Pornhub, XVideos, and Stripchat face stricter requirements to verify the ages of their users after being officially designated as “Very Large Online Platforms” (VLOPs) under the European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA). I personally have mixed feelings, as the information collection could be used to link individuals and profile them. Possibly leading to discrimination if abused. But I also feel that any random kid shouldn't be able to just go to these sites and see porn freely. \ Ofc, there's always going to be those who mange to circumvent any protection put in place but it'd be much harder then just clicking a link or typing in the address. I also feel that parents should actively monitor their kids online activities and step up a Blocklist to pro-actively prevent kids from reaching these sites to begin with. What are your thoughts on this?

While not being directly related to Linux gaming, this does effect gaming in various ways. From Plasma getting features like HDR, Compositor Hand-offs, Crash Recovery that protects against progress loss, true Hibernation and a mega-ton more, to contributions to various Wayland protocols & advancement to Linux as a whole, to being a major component of the Steam Deck's Steam OS and much more. Show your support by donating to this amazing project. Even if you don't use Plasma, you'll still have many benefits come your way from the success of this project.
