It is kind of shooting at the ambulance, zoom needs to also adapt to the new API. The alternative is a completely non functional Wayland for videoconferencing for years… Unusable stable is not better than unstable usable IMHO at least you have a shot at fixing it for the second option.

It drives me crazy. Just release it 18+months ago and iterate with versions, at least your users will have the feature in their hands.

The presenter banging on the keyboard, seemed totally distracted for minutes to say 2 sentences. It doesn’t need to be perfect but that level requires way too much good will to not just close the video… There is nothing wrong to say, ok let me regroup for a couple minutes then fully jump in for your audience.

Your overall process is perfect: first try to solve it from the UI, then the console, then the magic sysreq key.

The fact that your kernel was not responding to the sysreq key could mean a couple things: is it enabled on your install? (cat /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq to check)

Before trying to understand why the kernel locked up, are you sure everything is solid on the hardware side? ie. Did you overclock anything? If yes did you burn test the PC on some GPU demo?

“one man’s trash is another man’s treasure” almost to the letter.

The crashes are in the middle of browsers (both Firefox and chrome embedded in Spotify), if you try a simple mprime stress test (from the AUR mprime-bin) does it crash too?

One crash was in libxul and the other in libcef I doubt this is a specific lib

The rust one is called bottom (btm) see the other thread :). When you already have a rust environment it is just at a cargo install away which is convenient.

Passed away: This has been used in plain English since the 14th century. This is also a respectful way to say that they passed away to another realm (to whatever people believe in).

Oh ok! Thank you so much!!

Oh thank you for the tip, I forgot paru was written in rust and of course rustup is on ally machines (btw?) ;)

Something to understand here, it is exactly the same with the automotive industry. It is almost never about the actual safety, let me explain.

If you work as a safety engineer in a company like Boeing the name of the game is to not be responsible for the safety of a component at all. You always hide behind some kind of certifications then always ask a contractor to do it. The contractor might be scared too so will ask for a subcontractor and so on until someone is in an obscure juridiction or brave enough to just develop the software like almost anyone else but just with someone rubber-stamping the paperwork.

The safety engineer will have the paperwork so for them, it is safe! If there is an issue this is not them.

So for them Linux is absolutely out of the question, who wants to sign a paper for it?

Interesting, git do support aliases too. “git st” etc What is .load.sh?

You should name it alias btw=… to fully embrace our stereotype ;).

I am almost too afraid to ask … Where do you see those stats? Thank you

Fun to think that someday if USB C finishes to eradicate HDMI/DP they might become the sign that it is retro… Look at that! They had a dedicated plug for the video signal back then :)

I have an hard time moving out of yay… TBH if AUR could be installable from pacman it would be awesome

Anybody knows when HDR will land in Wayland?

Can’t wait! I’ll buy it again!

Amazing!
