What are you talking about? Microsoft is charging for HEIF, HEIC, and looking to do it with AV1 and AVIF. Intel started development of EFI in the titanium days as a new standard for servers running unix before it became an open standard. Microsoft wasn't the only one involved in the standard but apple, redhat, hp, Intel, amd, and a laundry list of hardware/software manufacturers.
Most all the innovation happens in enterprise space with servers running unix/Linux. User operating systems are an afterthought when these features are initially conceived.
I guess you had to be there, he has some very fun videos. His garbage time videos are a lot of fun if you like watching people mess around with shit boxes. And if you're into drums, he has the drum thing too.
I guess if you're boring and like watching others play games you could just play yourself. There's hello, I'm gaming. He tries to make it more interesting but it's gaming so.
You really should check this guy out tho. He's heaps fun to watch!
Greek algebra, a truth is only true if all other examples of the truth are proven true. Or one can be a part of the whole but the whole isn't exactly the same as one.
I don't think it's hardened. Softer steel doesn't tend to chip and harder steel is more difficult to sharpen.
No, let the peasants rabble over small things. It could be quite entertaining!
Besides it might spoil the relationship with your local NSA agent.
I think it's worth it too. People are just weird about paying for a product that supports individuals creative ambitions just because a company takes a cut. Admittedly better content than streaming services most the time anyway.
Lol Florida would be a dick.😆 What does that say about all the old people we exile to the Floridian badlands. Is it a metaphor for rebirth?
This whole argument ignores xwayland and the fact that new features are added as a standard of Wayland literally every day.
For as long as xwayland is supported you can use your old apps. Wayland actually supports different window icons for multi window apps. But Wayland has always supported window icons, kde just had an annoying bug they finally fixed. Chromium and electron apps kinda just didn't support window icons very well in wayland for a while.
For accessibility, it's been broken on Linux for literally years but there's an active effort to make it better and more universal than it ever could have been on x11. The effort of building a fully featured accessibility stack is being led by the gnome team with help from the free desktop organization and kde.
This is my last response, this conversation isn't going anywhere anyway. I'm not the one transitioning the Linux world to Wayland, I don't see why you could blame me for it anyhow.
Your arguments kinda weak, no offense. I do have a solution for you though. If you want to stick with a version of Linux that's guaranteed to support xorg for eight years, I'd recommend Rocky linux! When that reaches EOL I guess you could just stay on it.
Enterprise plans on being fully switched over to Wayland by the next major version. You won't be able to install xorg on redhat for example. The biggest contributors to xorg(Enterprise) are going to shift focus to xwayland to support legacy software on wayland.
Besides it's exciting finally catching up to truly hardware accelerated desktops like Mac OS 10.0 and windows vista. At its heart xorg is a purely single threaded software accelerated bitmap based windowing system from 84. They've had to rewrite small but incredibly complex chunks of the code just to try to keep up with the modern world. Just look at the history of 3D acceleration in x11.
Your free to give it a good go though! The very same team that actively maintained xorg threw in the towel ten years ago when they diverted resources towards a new windowing protocol and they're not going back.
