Apparently Wayland has become default in most distros, and actually installing X11 back on some of them is a lot of work (it was straightforward only on CachyOS) and I don't have the tux-fu to wedge it in by sheer hackery.

So there's this end of life situation and the fact that I work with different monitors and do CGI so there's a few more downsides there too (scaling, color management)

Yea, I know. Thanks. It's what people told me (users and developers) but it just doesn't work for me. You're right that it works fine with the X11 session. The problems have been the same in every Wayland distro I tried (Debian Trixie, Nobara 42 and Bazzite something) and are consistent between two (very different) tablets, so I ended up ruling out the hardware. At least on the tablet side..., because I have yet to try the same thing on my laptop to rule out any potential signal issue with my USBs

tl;dr it needs a little more investigation on my part to explain why it doesn't seem reproducible for other users

God I really hope someone figures out Wayland+Wacom. I cannot wait to escape Windows

This is why we have governments and regulations. The current situation is one for consumer protections to step in. There needs to be a legal way to "burn" any game onto a physical media for archiving, preservation and transfer purposes. This needs to be written into law and enforced.

The first one was great imho, I think the brand wouldn't have taken off at all without a decent first machine

The 360 was even better perhaps, thanks to plenty of good games I'd say. Not sure what happened after that, I was off the wagon

I'll listen to this guy when he finally gets an appointment at the hairdresser

they stack eggs in 3D ?!

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 5 points 1 month ago (4 children)

144 ? is that 9 times 16 ? I'm trying to figure out the carton shape

wow, they sell eggs in powers of two ?

edit do you routinely buy eggs by the hundreds ? is that 8 times 16 eggs ? 16 times 8 eggs ?

A militant serial plumber sabotaging data centers throughout the world.... I'd watch that

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 1 points 2 months ago (2 children)

The thing is, if the future is all datacenters, yes we're gonna need electricians and plumbers. But this is a future I want to help prevent at all costs. So look at me purposefully not being an electrician or plumber

I mean, it's an existential threat. It doesn't really matter what's required to make it stop -it's necessary.

Yes it does require a transformation of our infrastructure, of our culture, and that in turn means a transformation or our institutions, a big crackdown on lobbies and corruption, etc. It's the biggest challenge of our lives. Not trying to give the impression it's easy
