Since Wayland compositors handle input devices on a lower level than X11 window managers, every compositor has to figure out on their own what a “mouse wheel click” is:

- https://github.com/labwc/labwc/issues/1068
- https://github.com/labwc/labwc/pull/2933

(I think “Wayland compositor” is a misnomer. They are full-blown display servers that also do compositing, plus Wayland window management, plus X11 window management.)

One can only hope that all this eventually gets moved into the wlroots library. (I’m not sure if that’s possible, nor if people would want that.)

Maybe someone can explain this to me.

An #EU citizen trying to access Facebook today faces the following choices (see screenshots).

In there, they say that they are asking this again to comply with #EU rules, and yet the question - and the options to choose from - are the same they had in the past.

So, hm, how does this make them comply with something they weren't complying before? What's the detail I'm missing?

#Meta #Facebook #GDPR The first screenshot, "review whether we can process your data for ads", says that "as part of laws in your region, we'll need you to revisit your ads choice." ![The second screenshot is the choice between two options: "subscribe to use without ads" (from €7.99/month) or "Use free of charge with ads" (which they say is "Your current experience")](https://media.ciberlandia.pt/ciberlandia-media/media_attachments/files/114/886/621/505/787/642/original/4ae0c30d23f08c9d.jpg)

@movq omg YAML is so demonic like it pretends to be readable and then THE SPACING. THE FUCKING SPACING
@movq LMAOOOO
I wore a Kubernetes shirt, in public, by accident, and now I feel dirty and ashamed. 😢
@kat I kind of like XML because it’s mostly well-defined and easy for humans to read (unlike YAML, which is a complete mess, imho) … and at the same time, it can get complicated really fast. 🫤 But at least it’s plain-text – that’s the important part in this case. 😅

@movq XML is so terrifying but kinda underrated tbh
@kat i wanna catch up on the twts!!!
Xfce does one thing very right: It stores its settings in plain-text XML files. This allows me to easily read, track, and maybe even distribute these settings to other machines.

(Unlike GNOME’s dconf, which uses some binary file format. Fun fact: The older and now deprecated gconf also used XML files.)
ugh my TL's once again doing the thing where it only shows like 5 twts

@lyse Hm, I don’t think so, the requested page was a Linux-specific post. 🤔 I sometimes wonder if privacy-oriented browsers might do this on purpose, to create garbage data? 🤔 No idea.
@lyse I honestly wish I could do more than just sit here and wait. It’s just a matter of time until they remove X.Org from the repos. 🫤 But I really can’t dedicate so much time to this …

Let’s try again next year. I don’t have the stamina. Death by a thousand paper cuts.

Can’t set up a meaningful taskbar: https://github.com/labwc/labwc/discussions/2924 (This is not a labwc issue, it’s a generic issue in the broader Wayland ecosystem.)
HTTP referrers are quite broken, aren’t they?

Because of that recent storm on my blog, I had a peek at them. There’s a lot of garbage in there. For example, https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/disks-virtual.html is supposed to refer to one of my blog posts …

What’s going on here?

Wo das Gas bleibt weiß ich. Warum die Befestigungen immer weniger werden, obwohl wir durchzählen (!), ist mir unbekannt. Vielleicht sind wir im Zahlenraum von 1 bis 20 einfach nur noch sehr unsicher. 🤓
