i wonder what possesses people to post this type of shit on their first name last name linkedin profiles

@icst Giving people choices is kind of what Linux is all about imo so that makes sense. The way KDE does it now by shipping with Wayland configured by default but X still being available in the event Wayland doesn't work is probably the way it should be maintained in the future though I don't know how much added complexity maintaining both is. Systemd, when talking about just the Daemon management part (and journald) is just better IMO so I understand why distros started switching to it and decoupling your PID 1 is probably even harder to maintain than any X/Wayland shenanigans sincr you would have to ship different config files for every different tool instead of just 1. I understand why Rust is a thing to avoid the footgun magnet that is raw C/C++ but I personally didn't like writing it all that much though again choice is the important thing. Not going to talk about the vax because I legitimately just do not care about it.

For most of those there are choices to use the older option and they should probably still exist for reasons beyond just legacy software even if a different band of autists maintain them. I will never understand being afraid of change because doing the same thing the same way forever is boring as hell but pushback against changing for the sole sake of changing is also super important

Apologies for the gigantic text dump basically TLDR your point is reasonable but I don't agree with it personally

@kaia Thank you, I will keep going! I appreciate the offer for CV review but I honestly think that job searching is like 80% beating the ATS AI, 10% luck and 10% actually having something worthwhile on it.
The good news is though my interview rate has gone from 0% to at least 2% since the last time I tried , though since so many are recent I don't know the actual conversion rate. I tried using both people and AI and they all say it's good so I'll just keep throwing it at anyone who will look

Hit 100 job rejections today #winning

@Inginsub @icst @i don't get your hopes up, despite the quality of the 9070XT AMD is still basically Nvidia but worse everywhere else and Intel is too busy trying to not fade into complete irrelevance that the ARC division might get full dissolved though that's purely speculation

@RustyCrab I haven't personally ran into any problems myself beyond a bit on my old GPU where the temperature sensor stopped reporting to the OS so I'm just lucky when it comes to that or it has actually improved since the abysmal launch

@RustyCrab classy as always, NVIDIA. Good thing you're only about 70% of the dGPU market.
I remember back when I first installed like 10 years ago now Ubuntu on an old iMac from 2009 nouveau would kernel panic after a couple hours max and the proprietary driver didn't support brightness control. At least some things never change.
I should try Wayland on my 50 series card with the newer drivers maybe it will be less bad

@sun better late than never

I don't understand why people hate on Wayland now, though I've never tried it recently on an Nvidia GPU but I hope it's gotten less unusable

Chaos is a ladder so start climbing and don't finish until you hear Snake Eater playing in the background

@bajax I'll send some daedra your way

Going to join the Mythic Dawn to bring lord Dagon into our realm anyone want anything

@colonelj I wish I was schizophrenic then I would not have to work for money

My style of blog post writing is best described as "write something as it comes all at once even if it does not make one cohesive thing" and I hit submit

@nuko One went bleh and I got rejected the next day, the next one I think went well but I have not heard either way yet.

I know no one read this because writefreely comes with analytics idc I will still promote it.

#100DaysToOffload part the twenty-third

I don't think people realise how many people actually live in India. 17.78% of the human population of the entire Earth lives in India. They are now the most populous country (a title they won in about 2023 surpassing 1.46 billion compared to China's 1.42 billion) and will keep going up despite a million+ Indians leaving every year. That doesn't include Pakistan or Bangladesh either which is India but Muslim.

They all died @ruiner it's time to move on

Taking a break from applying so I don't completely lose my marbles

@zonk thanks sis good luck to you too
