stable is called stable because of stability

stability
noun [ U ]
uk
/stəˈbɪl.ə.ti/ us
/stəˈbɪl.ə.t̬i/
C1
a situation in which something is not likely to move or change:
a period of political stability

The point of a stable distro is that it's unchanging. That way you have predictable issues that you can solve in the same way for the lifetime of that version.

Reliability is a side benefit of maintainers choosing the best available version to freeze.

Ackshyually stable only relates to the release schedule. Stability is not reliability.

Plenty wrong with Ubuntu.

I've even had constructive conversation on Hexbear before

I'm guessing you didn't go against the flow?

One time I said it's fucked up that Romani children are taken away from primary school and married off to have children.

Within an hour, I had crazy fucks publicly screaming at me how I'm a nazi and advocating genocide. Meanwhile I was also getting private messages about how they're hoping I would suffer and some shit.

But he is the type to ban Russian contributors less than a month after DoD signed a new contract with RH. Can you guess what stocks he owns?

I mean, they almost certainly have built in backdoors like IME. When you can force hardware manufacturers to add shit, you don't have to think up convoluted solutions like that.

Here you go, use layers

Also, I suggest having tap/hold modifiers. For example I like having caps and ret be ctrl when held, and spc be super

Vim, but for terminal text manipulation. The closest I've found is Emacs vterm + evil, which is amusing.

A Rutgers-led team has discovered how plants harness microbes in soil to get nutrients

Teaming with microbes was published almost 20 years ago, was using older sources, and is literally explaining the same thing.

What are they going to "discover" next, the wheel, hot water, maybe writing?

MX Linux, Xfce 4.18

Closing the laptop lid suspends the system, opening it resumes it, but the screen is black. I'm guessing it's related to powerup because suspending through the logout menu and systemctl suspend both work as expected. When it's black, switching to a different tty works, as well as C-M-Backspace to logout.

Same results with both lightdm and sddm, when replacing suspend with hibernate, and I've tried a few solutions like disabling lock on sleep.

Seems like this issue has been around for years, but had a whole bunch of different causes since every other thread has a different solution.

XFSETTINGSD_DEBUG=1 xfsettingsd --replace --no-daemon > /tmp/xf.log 2>&1

ps -ef | grep -E 'screen|lock'

xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -lv

dmesg, cleared it before trying to suspend

updates:

I'm not seeing a black screen, instead it turns on the display and then turns it off.

Additionally, I tried closing and opening the lid a few times, and it woke up correctly.

I tried it in i3wm with the xfce power manager to suspend after closing the lid. It woke up correctly 10 times in a row.

Solution: start an xrandr config and the monitor turns back on.

Non-general purpose posts (self.programming)

This community is:

A general purpose programming community for English speakers

Language specific posts like:

and ide specific posts like:

are not general purpose. Posts like that ruined /r/programming for me, and this community seems to be going down the same road. I'm here to read about programming concepts that can be applied to any/most languages, not patch notes for 10 different Js frameworks posted by karma farming bots. If I wanted to read posts like that, I'd have subbed to /c/javascript...

Do you agree with me that they should be removed from /c/programming, and limited only to their respective communities? Or have I missed the point of this community?
