What a shame. He was a good man

Void won’t package Hyprland because it doesn’t use a stable/tagged version of wlroots, so it needs a vendored version to build it (ref: https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/37544)

C++: Nuh, uh ...

template <typename T>
concept Crackable = requires(T obj) {
    { obj.crack() };
};

auto crack(Crackable auto& nut) {
    nut.crack();
}

Has “laying off staff to focus on AI “ become a common euphemism for “we hired too many people”?

This latest version now supports screen recording on Wayland*. This YouTube example was recorded on Gnome 44's compositor (piped.video link).

* tested on Gnome, Wayfire, and Sway

I absolutely plan to support team red/blue GPUs. I just don’t have access to the h/w right now

[-] sonymegadrive@feddit.uk 28 points 9 months ago

Haha. There’s no Wayland support… yet. Check out gpu-screen-recorder for a very similar project with Wayland support

[-] sonymegadrive@feddit.uk 6 points 9 months ago

Thank you for your kind words!

I haven’t made the jump to Wayland yet. I basically live in the terminal (when I’m not playing games!) so haven’t been in any rush. I definitely want to support Wayland going forward because it seems everyone has switched but me!

I created Shadow Cast after becoming disillusioned with the lack of simple, performant display recording utilities for X11. All feedback welcome.

That means cryptographic keys under one government’s control could be used to intercept HTTPS communication

Could someone smarter than me explain how this would be possible? Wouldn’t the browser still be able to enforce privacy between the client and origin? Or is it the case that certificates issued by these CAs could in theory only support weaker cyphers?

Edit: Some really useful explanations. Thank you!

There’s a PC game called Ctrl Alt Ego (Steam link) where you play as a disembodied conscience that can project itself into - and control - different entities in the game.

When your current host is destroyed you just become disembodied again and can project yourself into another nearby entity (even the enemy that destroyed your host, in some circumstances). It’s quite a unique concept and almost completely removes the need to quick save/quick load.

If you’re into Immersive Sim games then I would highly recommend it - Stands alongside Prey and System Shock 2 IMO.

I’ve often wondered if nvidia are constantly assessing the engineering work required to maintain Linux drivers for their commercial GPUs, and now I’m wondering if they’re adding telemetry to provide data for this decision.

[-] sonymegadrive@feddit.uk 21 points 1 year ago

I’m gonna be that person… I rarely, if ever have issues with nvidia on Linux. Used several 30xx series cards for gaming over the last couple of years and it’s been a great experience.

Is it my distro (Void)?. is it because I’m happy staying on X11? Is it just luck? Interested to hear people’s gripes
