Tried it, my device crashes every 2 minutes in. Not worth the effort for now.

Executives are also trying to use it to eliminate the jobs of artists, and I feel it’s wrong to try and obsolete something people love doing.

Luddism, much?

Do you really need a cool usable theme to be productive, whatever the crap that is? Are you 7 years old?

Prior to going into the post, I was just hesitant to try it but curious. The fact that they are working on releasing Cosmic to other operating systems and how comprehensive the piece of news is (for instance, featuring a section of what’s present and what’s missing at this stage of development) is what may have just sold me into trying it.

I’m afraid basing their distro off TempleOS would be a bit too hard.

The summed up version of your comment is that you also go out of your way to work around the database issue.

the lack of XWayland support scares me

I’ve been using niri lately and couldn’t believe so many apps wouldn’t launch. I didn’t know that was the issue. I had been manually editing so many desktop entries to make them work…

Reading this feels like reading those famous math textbooks, which are for people who are already well-versed in the field yet kept being shoved into undergraduate courses.

Didn’t they do primaries this time around? Didn’t anyone show up to contest him?

I think you did alright by resorting to flatpak. When it comes to closed source applications, it’s not uncommon for problems like this to appear every so often.

Gimp’s mascot is in some kind of hard drugs in that icon

Just to double check, are you sure you’re not running TempleOS?

The problem here is that we are dealing in largely imprecise terms. If we instead turn to semantic versioning for inspiring what we’d consider a large change, then Plasma 5 -> 6 is a big change, breaking previous API.

The new desktop edit effect is largely irrelevant under this rather precise terminology.

I don’t think anyone has misunderstood you here. You misunderstood what you wrote in your first comment. The new desktop edit window is not proposing any new functionality that wasn’t there, but showcasing it in a more streamlined fashion. That’s in itself refining the user experience, which is exactly what you wanted.

I tried it, but Firefox didn’t play some videos. As it turns out, it was an issue with non open source codecs. I’m not helping anyone navigate those issues, I’d rather point them out to a ready to go kind of distribution.

Wrong place, wrong time

Lutris? As far as I know, Wine doesn’t work on ARM. Unless they’re targeting x86 with mobile shape form.

According to tldr.chat:

Toolbx now supports the use of the proprietary NVIDIA driver in containers without the need to recreate them or use special options. This is achieved through the use of NVIDIA Container Toolkit to generate a Container Device Interface specification on the host, which is then shared with the Toolbx container’s entry point. The use of “nvidia-ctk” and “podman create” is not currently implemented due to root access requirements and the inability to update existing containers. The delay in enabling this support was due to the need for hardware access for testing, which was facilitated by Red Hat providing a ThinkPad P72 laptop with a NVIDIA Quadro P600 GPU.

Ah man, I was hoping I’d be rickrolled
