Disregarding what it's actually about, the #AWS #Snowcone's hardware concept is absolutely delightful.
It's rugged and has an e-ink display, so they just put the shipping info on the screen and throw it in the mail without any packaging.

#Pipewire: Terrible? Awesome?
I'm tempted to see the controversy similar to those around systemd and pulseaudio, both of which appear to me to be generally good.

It actually shocked me a bit. Newer GNOME apps (indicator: header bar) are fine on Wayland, but everything Qt (yes, all KDE stuff too) is stuck on XWayland because it ignores the relevant environment variable.

#Windows developers be like: "No wonder you're experiencing bugs, you don't even delete the package cache, re-clone the repository, reboot and re-run these batch scripts every hour"

It's almost like they fixed too many bugs and had to add new ones to keep the balance.

It's worse than usual today. While switching tabs would usually help it doesn't now. When I try to save so I can discard the changes it does the wonderful windows something-happened-but-i-won't-tell-you-what-chime and nothing else (yes, I have checked other desktops).
