Dwarf Fortress runs fine in Linux. Are you telling me there are other video games?!?

Here i was hoping that it had popped back up.

That could be a longer wait because Gnome (hopefully) wont be standing still during that time.

they want to bring in the most money and expend the least effort. I can respect that.

Policing customers/users is a PITA and generally sux to do even on the smaller scale of an office. Much cheaper and easier to do nothing.

A penguin once bit my sister. its true!

I knew quite a few linux fans who went with Apple laptops when OSX came out. At the time it was the best thing available that had unix under the hood which made it really powerful in the right hands.

that is not a thin-client in the traditional sense, just a small form factor (1liter) pc. Thin clients were minimal spec machines that were made to connect to a much more powerful server somewhere on the network that did all the work. The thin client handled the display and I/O.

Mini PCs are generally a far better deal than a Pi and much more powerful for any kind general computing use.

the Canadian government REQUIRES you to use Adobe reader to sign PDFs in order to immigrate to canada

This took a few frustrated attempts to discover for me. Moved to Canada last year and while I am a citizen my wife and kids are not. There was a lot of paperwork to fill out and submit and having repeated issues with documents not opening and seeming not to exist was crazy making. I dont normally install Adobe anything on my computers but decided it was worth a try…

Bright side of the story is that after less than a year the family is now all legal and have their PR cards. The Canadian gov can be refreshingly efficient sometimes.

ebay seems to just be a place for scammers and people selling used items for new prices.

or Sussie

Technically correct, which is the best kind.

Krita is amazing

Should work perfectly with Flatpack apps then!

I had typed a comment that I thought would be amusing, decided it really it was a rather unfunny low effort post and so immediately deleted it.

No need to be rude.

It seems to me that Mactan was hoping for some independent recent benchmarks.

Only thing I can find is this OS News article saying it should be in the 6.10 kernel

I can not find any confirmation that it is.

Seems like you will get a biased sample here…

What exactly do you like about X11?

That it works just fine for my purposes. When it does not I will switch to Wayland but I have no reason to at the moment.

I have actually taken to downloading 1080p versions of things I have access to in 4kHDR from Disney and Amazon. Frankly I can not stand HRD/Dolby Vision versions of things. No matter how I adjust my TV they still suffer from that ghastly soap-opera effect. To me having the background bright and in focus flattens the image making everything look like a bad set. It also makes the tiny differences in lighting of digital effects elements more noticeably.

I hate it.
