What I thought I’d do was…
I’d pretend to be one of those deaf-mutes
I don’t use steam, I buy games on GOG. Just install it via Lutris and pick system wine in runner options. And do the regedit trick with the graphics driver: link
I don’t use proton, I use system wine instead. There are also wine builds by Glorious Eggroll with applied proton patches if you need them.
It doesn’t help much though, performance is exactly the same as Xwayland
I’m using it daily since Wine 9.5, it works without issues (I mostly play Elden Ring)
Iran is ruled by IRGC right now. If the community is discriminating to begin with, you have to fight. I’m yet to see how Nix community is discriminating. What I saw is that an active developer got actually banned just for arguing against an affirmative action.
You’re a good person, and I like your point of view. I have my doubts, still, but thank you nevertheless. I hope that a potential “person with lived experience” is also fit to be a community manager and above all is devoted to Nix.
If the community itself is discriminating, there’s no way out than to fight or wait for an opportunity. We don’t see black empowerment in China or a pride parade in Iran.
What I saw in Nix community right now is someone proposed an affirmative action and Jon refused. I don’t see discrimination here.
It is impossible to satisfy all minorities at once. The best outcome is to pick an adequate, sane person from the community with proper mindset and proper judgement, irrelevant if they’re from a minority or not.
I think you are right here. By cherry-picking gender minorities we sow a dissent and we underline their “otherness” from everyone else.
I am from an ethnic minority myself, and somehow people perceive us as maniacs and killers, try to burn our houses and fire us from work. Often it’s the same people who preach equality and diversity. Somehow in my case they don’t care about “empowerment” or “representation” at all. And somehow, the only place I feel comfortable is 4chan, where no one gives a damn who you are, and everyone’s racist and sexist. To everyone else. Equally.
Suppose I have 1000 people from community and 10 out of them are gender minorities. I then have 5 projects, each with 10 members on board committee, and I want a representative of gender minority in each of them. And I choose hard workers based on merit, the best of the best.
In such case I will be choosing 9*5 = 45 people out of 1000, and specifically I add 1*5 = 5 people out of those 10.
So the board committees will have 45 members each with (worst case) 955/1000 = 95.5% percentile performance, and additionally 5 members of gender minorities, each with mediocre 5/10 = 50% performance.
The gender minorities will perform worse, because we specifically singled them out of the crowd. This is not how you improve diversity.
I didn’t understand a thing about what the actual issues were.
Based on comments I can see that Jon Ringer objected to inserting gender minority person as a requirement for committee board.
So, why is he wrong? I totally agree that gender minorities deserve recognition, but making it a hard requirement for having a committee board sounds like nepotism.
Same here, but it turned out a lot of frameworks like tensorflow or pytorch do support AMD ROCm framework. I managed to run most models just by installing a rocm version of these dependencies instead of the default one.
He means that ASCII table has an actual character that represents end-of-text and that terminals respond to with SIGINT, and it is ETX character, 0x03.
The Control modifier on your keyboard basically clears the top three bits of whatever ASCII character you type, leaving the bottom five and mapping it to the 0…31 range. Ctrl+C sends 0x03, which is exactly ETX.
Look at the ASCII table for a clue, this is why it was a convenient thing to do.
Wayland has waypipe which does exactly that

Just straight up overwriting boot sector and superblock of my hard drive thinking it’s the USB drive.
Udev tried to warn me, saying there’s no permission, and I just typed sudo without thinking.
Then after a second I remembered USB block devices are usually writable by users, but it was too late.

I’m surprised nobody said it yet. Welcome back!
