I wasn’t really aware until recently that programs can’t choose their own window’s position on Wayland. This is very weird to me, because this was not an issue on X11 to begin with: X11 programs can request a certain position and size, but the X11 WM ultimately decides if that request is being honored or not. And users can configure that.
But apparently, this whole thing is a heated debate in the Wayland world. 🤔
@lyse To be fair, I did first notice this a while ago. But no monitor I ever had showed burn-ins like this (be it TFT or CRT), so I didn’t know that I *should have* sent it back. And then it got worse over time and now I see ghost images after 20-30 minutes. :(
"Behind the scenes, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and EU’s Maroš Šefčovič hashed out technical annexes on automobiles, pharmaceuticals and digital trade."
"Tech giants Microsoft’s cloud services, Apple’s iPhones and Google’s data solutions gain tariff-free pathway, fueling digital exports growth."
"Digital Services: Microsoft announces a new 150 MW cloud data center in Berlin backed by tariff-free equipment imports; SAP commits to expanding U.S. R&D hubs in Austin, Texas."
If you think the EU-US agreement is good news, think again:
"We will replace Russian gas and oil with significant purchases of US LNG, oil and nuclear fuels," the European Commission President says in a statement.
We ate the #burgers and drank the #beers before taking a picture to the #books during the second #BBB (Books, Beers and Burgers) of #2025 in #Lamego - oops! Eight books and a few port glasses, with books in Portuguese, Spanish and English, one of them on an ebook reader, two of them Manga, four of them sci-fi, two of them non-fiction, other two crime fiction.
@prologic I’d expect a custom build like that to cost at least 50'000€ here in Europe. *Used* campers with 100'000 - 200'000 km already on their clock are 20-40k€, apparently. 😆
We just met again after sleep to clean up all the rest. I now got food for literally two weeks. At least. No kidding! I feel really bad for taking waaaaay more home than bringing along. :-/ Turned out that a bunch of people were absent without an excuse. :-( That rude behavior is beyond my comprehension.
Do I buy a new monitor or do I live with the burn-ins all the time? It’s getting annoying. When I edit images in GIMP, I have to double check if something is a pixel or a burn-in.
When tidying up my good mate's birthday party site last night we emptied the beer pong cups which had been filled with just ordinary tap water. There was also a cute dog whose owner gave it its drinking bowl, but it was not interested. Just for fun I offered it one of those water cups and it began to drink. We all had to laugh so hard because it was completely unexpected and looked so funny. Can't describe this comicalness of the situation. :-D
systemctl uses ANSI escape codes to underline text (\e[4m) and then it also uses special escape codes – that Wikipedia classifies as “not in the standard”, but I haven’t looked it up – to *change the color of the underline*. That color change is barely noticeable in the first place.
Some terminals don’t support this and now my systemctl output is *blinking* because of that.
guys i use VPS systems from time to time and they scare me. wdym they have every port open by default and the firewall is your responsibility. what the fuck bro
Global update: Trump in Scotland says EU trade deal has 50-50 chance as tariff row grows. Gaza sees 9 more starvation deaths (122 total); UN says famine is deliberate. Thai-Cambodia clashes kill 16, displace 135k. US raid in Syria kills top ISIS leader & sons.
You know you’re getting old when there’s quite a few scripts in your ~/bin that you use daily, but you haven’t edited them once in well over 10 years …
@lyse “Advanced”, well, probably more “mature”. There aren’t a ton of crazy features and that icon thing is the largest code addition in the last 10 years. %)
Speaking of OS/2 … I just realized that Windows 3.x didn’t have icons, either. If I’m not mistaken, this only got added in Windows 95. In other words, OS/2 had this feature before Windows did, because at least OS/2 2.1 from 1993 had icons. Who would have thunk.
(Now I kind of want to know which system really introduced this feature.)
