  • Arm is insanely fragmented, every device must be have dedicated drivers and hardcoded specific configuration in the kernel. And sometimes even separate kernel builds. Also Snapdragon X devices are not even fully supported upstream in the most recent kernel yet. Which means they are many years away from being supported in Debian. Unless someone makes a fork of Debian with latest kernel and not yet upstreamed Qualcomm specific patches (which how these “arm distros” are usually made).






  • Any social media where “people” can freely register and post without any identity verification (I don’t support this btw) will be overrun with bots, and Fediverse is not an exception. I’ve blocked dozens of users and communities that post nothing by political crap (all day every day) from any point on political spectrum.

    Though Fediverse at least gives you more freedom and tools to handle it.












  • I feel like the rules are different here. This dude is not a celebrity, he is a CEO of a company which mission is to provide a secure and private email service. I don’t care about him as a person, he represents his company here. His job is to make sure that the data of his customers does not get in the wrong hands, and being as apolitical as possible is part of it. (Unless it’s speaking up against laws that will undermine his business such as banning encryption, but that’s not what’s happening here).


  • Your are right, it’s not implemented yet in Plasma Wayland. It must be done in Plasma/KWin itself since top-level Wayland windows can’t position themselves on screen and don’t even know their coordinates (and doing it on the application side is not really correct since not all apps will support it and it duplication of work and code, while compositor can do it consistently for all windows). However it just doesn’t work yet.
