Also fixed is a bug that could cause an X server crash when graphics apps request single-buffered drawables while certain features like Vulkan sharpening are enabled, a bug that could lead to a kernel panic due to a failure to release a spinlock under some conditions, and a race condition which could lead to crashes when Xid errors occur concurrently on multiple GPUs.

I forgot an onion in a cotton bag and it started sprouting with the heat. Thinking of planting it; should I just bury it with the shoots exposed? Want to get some paprika to deter deers too.

Hans credits his improved social and communication skills learned in prison among other details shared in the public letters.

I thought prisons were meant to cause more trauma and help ensure people never leave so as to increase profits?

Trading my jacket for single-use goop that I rub all over my skin lest I die of cancer is not my idea of a fun time.

Hello,

Recently there was this annoying 'feature' that would, for example, search the desktop for "t" if I tried to open the terminal with "ctr+alt+t" (the same for any other shortcut as soon as there's useable input). I started searching around for a fix until I eventually found org/gnome/mutter/wayland/xwayland-allow-grabs in dconf which, after enabling it, stopped my computer from searching for the letter t on my desktop and opening new tabs everywhere else. It also seems to have had an unexpected upside of increasing responsiveness on my desktop. I.e. much faster word search in .pdf files, snappier opening/closing of windows, seemingly smoother gameplay, etc.

My previous attempts were also to force gdm3 to use xorg (which I edited back because it made things slower), a whole bunch of logging in and out, disabling (and re-enabling) the dock, and a few system restarts. None of these seemed to effect any change though, I only realized better responsiveness after setting allow-grabs to true.

Can someone tell me if my mushy, sleep deprived brain is correct in assuming that this dconf setting made my computer a bit faster, or was it something else?

Thanks!

Microsoft asserts that the 7 TB storage per glass sheet maintains data integrity for 10,000 years.

Imagine people 10,000 years from now finding a 7tb homework folder of high resolution ponies.

With the current system, anyone with physical access to your Hue bridge can take it over just by pressing the button.

If a bad actor has access to your home, I doubt light bulbs will be your main concern...

Upping the original as a matter of course.

I think it would be inline with Beehaw's values to create one. In fact, I can't seem to find an instance that has one. :|

The guy who made the space exploration mod is the same one that worked on this expansion. Thought I would put that here, judging by the comments on steam lol.

Beautiful games? (beehaw.org)
submitted 10 months ago by loops@beehaw.org to c/gaming@beehaw.org

Suggest some beautiful games. Genre doesn't matter. 3d or 2d no big deal. Hyper Light Drifter, Satisfactory, Cliff Empire, etc.

Mostly I'm talking about moments in the game where you can just stand there and look at the world and not be bored.

Thankssss.

As expected, pretty sure blue light filters are about sleep quality, not eye strain. Not that they matter much, with most devices having programmed in light filters now days.

I wish more companies did this; however, I believe most CEO's have the biased view that everyone has at least some money to spare which, as you probably know (likely on personal level), isn't true.

I understand that participating in cultural aspects of society must cost money due to the very nature of economics (if you want the artist to continue to make art, make sure they don't starve to death) but 'pirating' things is there not only as a stop gap to terrible service and personal risk (privacy violations, etc.), but also as an equalizer between those that have, and those that don't.

Maybe get a Steamdeck if portability is important, otherwise get a desktop. IMO gaming laptops don't last as long because of all the heat stress. Really just my opinion though.

*Funny, just seen this other post on Beehaw about valve selling refurbished Steamdecks. Just thought I would share just in case.

Man, I love Block the Rich. No more musky spam. My internet smells so much cleaner now.
