Yes there is, "Modern Standby"/S0ix/S2idle.

The CPU is still in a sleep state but less deep than regular S3 suspend, and it can wake up much frequently and silently to do stuff like check emails or whatever.

See "Suspend to idle" : https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_management/Suspend_and_hibernate

I don't want it to wake up in the middle of the night for no reason.

What Windows have been doing the last couple years is they moved from regular sleep to some poorly implemented standby mode that works more like a phone does where it still runs just very power efficiently and still does stuff in the background. Macs have been doing that for a long time except they actually did it right so it doesn't suck.

Linux doesn't support it yet so you'll get classic stop the world sleep anyway, but either way it'll always be customizable even when connected sleep gets implemented.

Telegram was built to protect activists and ordinary people from corrupt governments and corporations – we do not allow criminals to abuse our platform to evade justice.

So who gets to pick what's a lawful request and criminal activity? It's criminal in some states to seek an abortion or help with an abortion, so would they hand out the IPs of those "criminals"? Because depending on who you ask some will tell you they're basically murderers. And that's just one example.

Good privacy apps have nothing to hand out to any government, like Signal.

Don't worry about it, the frontends usually take care of using alternate sources if you want to:

Because AT&T doesn't have confusing branding such as the whole 5Ge which is really just them catching up with 4G+ that everyone else already had but totally not to trick users into thinking they're getting 5G

You mean you're not actually supposed to spend 2 hours daily unfucking everyone's shit during the standup turn by turn?

The author was bullied by Nintendo into voluntarily removing the repos, it wasn't DMCA'd.

GitHub had nothing to do with this one. And just like with Yuzu, plenty of people have uploaded copies of the repo already, thanks to git's decentralized nature where everyone have a full copy of the entire history.

I'd at least get a plumber to check it out. You could snake it yourself probably but you could also make it worse. If the pipe's broken, you might as well just get more debris falling into it and clogging it further.

A regular plumber visit/check usually isn't that expensive. Not cheap but far from 20k expensive.

It could also be connected to your flooding too, so you probably actually want to at least evaluate the damage ASAP. If the pipe's broken, you just have a convenient pipe to drain all the rain water straight to your basement.

If just follows the cursor so if you move the mouse to another screen you can also input your password there.

The only difference is which one the mouse cursor is on initially.

In theory it should be on all monitors. At least on mine, all 3 monitors display the login screen and any of them can be used to input the password.

You can edit the settings from KDE's settings to copy the KWin monitor configuration to it, you probably want to set the primary display.

In this world, money is power, and power absolutely does corrupt people.

I've seen a lot a fair amount of people that started off with humble beginnings, got really popular, made a ton of money, and turned into shitbags as a result because they can just fork up a bunch of cash to make problems go away.

Money and power enables you to get away with immoral stuff, if not straight up illegal.

The continuous increases in subscription fees for Spotify and YTM, and the ever increasing number of holes on my playlist is really having me reconsider going back to sailing the high seas or at least ripping my playlists as backup before it's all gone.

The apps have been becoming increasingly more bloated and buggy too, pay more for less and worse.

Testing, I broke the database so bad my posts were federating out but not saving on my local instance, fun stuff

Neat little thing I just noticed, might be known but I never head of it before: apparently, a Wayland window can vsync to at least 3 monitors with different refresh rates at the same time.

I have 3 monitors, at 60 Hz, 144 Hz, and 60 Hz from left to right. I was using glxgears to test something, and noticed when I put the window between the monitors, it'll sync to a weird refresh rate of about 193 fps. I stretched it to span all 3 monitors, and it locked at about 243 fps. It seems to oscillate between 242.5 and 243.5 gradually back and forth. So apparently, it's mixing the vsync signals together and ensuring every monitor's got a fresh frame while sharing frames when the vsyncs line up.

I knew Wayland was big on "every frame is perfect", but I didn't expect that to work even across 3 monitors at once! We've come a long, long way in the graphics stack. I expected it to sync to the 144Hz monitor and just tear or hiccup on the other ones.

All the protections in software, what an amazing idea!

It only shows "view all comments", so you can't see the full context of the comment tree.

The current behaviour is correct, as the remote instance is the canonical source, but being able to copy/share a link to your home instance would be nice as well.

Use case: maybe the comment is coming from an instance that is down, or one that you don't necessarily want to link to.

If the user has more than one account, being able to select which would be nice as well, so maybe a submenu or per account or a global setting.
