Unfortunately not, that doesn't meet the needs for either a different user, or a completely different use case. For example, I want to completely separate my work profile with a set of extensions, and my personal profile with a completely different theme and set of extensions. In most other browsers you simply click on your profile picture and choose "Switch Profiles" or something. Not Firefox nor its derivatives.

One of the few remaining browsers in 2024 that does not support profile switching (and no, a debug about:profiles page does not count as supporting profile switching), and sure, AI is absolutely what it needs right now to become relevant. /s

Its a lost cause, I've wasted several weeks in August and September trying to make Nvidia and Wayland and hardware video decoding work on every distro imaginable, GNOME or KDE. I would have bought a card from Team Red outright if I knew how deep the rabbit hole went.

Fuck ads, don't normalize this. I left Reddit because of enshittification, and putting ads on lemmy is just another first step towards that inevitable end. I'll just spin my own instance back up. I had one running but I took it down to avoid the influx of CSAM on some instances.

F**king hell if this was an R we'd be slaughtering him like a chicken in KFC. Have some standards D and get rid of this shitstain ASAP.

I'm a simple man. I do simple things. I replace df, ls and top with more modern alternatives. Courtesy of this list.

alias df="duf"
alias ls="eza --group-directories-first --long --group --sort=ext --icons --all"
alias top="btm"

I had to scroll way too far down to find this.

Also Republicans:

Folks, let me tell you, Jesus was a great guy, the best. When he started preaching, the people loved him. Tremendous crowds. Nobody got crowds like Jesus. Sadly, the fake news media of the time didn't want to cover him. They said he was a radical. Can you believe it?

When Pontius Pilate, not a good guy, said he found no guilt in Jesus, the crowd went crazy. They wanted Barabbas released instead, a real criminal. Total loser. Pilate should have stood up to them. Weak! In the end, they crucified our Lord and Savior. A total witch hunt. It was a perfect resurrection, many are saying the best. Many people are still talking about it.

Can you believe the apostles? Losers, everyone said. But they went out and started this little religion. Now, two thousand years later, it's the biggest deal in the world. Paul went all over spreading the word. A real worker. They didn't have planes back then, can you believe it? He walked everywhere.

The Bible folks, it's a great book, the best. People are always asking me, they say, "Sir, what's your favorite book?" And I say the Bible. It's got the best stories, the best morals. Nobody knows the Bible like me. I know it better than anybody.

I'll leave it at that. The New Testament, it's something very special. I'm proud to be a Christian.

Honestly I'm not surprised at all. I started on a little project to try and daily drive hyprland but reading through the wiki and the github issues, plus this, its clear that the contributors, as technically competent as they are, are not concerned about keeping their egos in check.

Its great eye-candy and all, but I gave up on it as I didn't need more tech-bro toxicity in my life.

In other news, garbage human found to be actual garbage.

One more tip, if you already have a Windows environment, spin up VMs with Hyper-V and start from there. Anytime you mess up, just nuke the VM and spin up another one. I must have burnt through hundreds of VMs (hyperbole) while testing out distros that I like.

 

Hey, beautiful people of Linux, I need some advice. I've been tinkering for the past several weeks on flavours of Plasma DE on Arch and Tumbleweed on my Nvidia/Alder Lake setup. Suffice to say the experience was nothing short of getting waterboarded in Guantanamo by Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity high-fiving each other while Laura Ingraham supervises.

While X11 is mostly working, I've basically given up on getting VA-API and Wayland to work. I'm considering getting a Beelink Mini PC with 7940HS and 780M to finally be able to daily drive a setup without compromises. Bonus points if Hyprland actually works without sketchy black market patches that you buy off a guy in the back alley behind Wendy's.

Looking for any advice or experience anyone might have.

  1. Does VA-API and AV1/VP9/HEVC HW decoding in browser actually work? Any browser at all.
  2. Does Wayland actually work without glitches on the 780M?
  3. Does Hyprland work out-of-the-box, if ever?
