@ActionRetro Curious, what's the yellow port on the back? I'm young 🙃

Because apple has long abandoned this, someone in my town thought this was dead and was going to toss it in the trash.

Luckily, it can be liberated with #linux!

@FediThing @onepict @darnell @digitalstefan If you could only call your doctor using a specific brand of telephone that would be nuts.

@ActionRetro That really stinks. Hard to have nice things indeed ... :'(

@256 Cool! Consider tagging all this stuff you're bringing up too :]

Anyway, switching to the driver finally got me up and running with Wayland! I've been wanting to close down that last big security hole on my system, , which has made my system's -based sandboxing not really sandboxing.
And now with my session, I get nicer pinch-to-zoom, and get almost no flickering on maximize etc, too. However, there's stuttering sometimes, and lower FPS in games (tested on Minecraft) compared to the proprietary driver.

@theslik If you're curious, I would get the X-shaped X Window System cursor that means you're pointing at the root window (or something) when I would point away from the error dialog. And when I clicked through, GNOME/COSMIC started up.

@theslik It is basically GNOME, but it is the modified version used by Pop OS. (I think it might be called COSMIC — not the new COSMIC being worked on by System76.)

I was doing things with my graphics drivers, something happened and Linux was really like 'You should fix the problem as soon as feasible'

Hello @life :) A few things....

• "Posts"... do replies count as posts in your statement?
• Do you think it would be better to ask them to move instead? I know a few people who are on theres.life who mainly read posts but don't say much.
• And importantly: how long do they have until their accounts will be deleted? The people I know don't check super often, I think.

I know I'm not on theres.life; but I feel connected enough to the community to have concerns to share.

Nintendo has announced a live-action film based on The Legend of Zelda, directed by Wes Ball, who helmed the "Maze Runner" trilogy. Variety has the details. How are we all feeling about this?
