My main issue is the lack of xdotool support. It can’t ever be supported because of the way Wayland isolates processes from each other.

Has any software ever entered the public domain through copyright expiration? I think software at least 70 years old (125 years for corporate created) when its copyright expires prevents it from being any benefit at all.

Remember Memristors? They’re commercially available today, at 200 EUR per bit.

Three years ago, I replaced a failing SATA SSD in my personal laptop with a new SATA SSD. That laptop had plenty of power, and I’d still be using it today if the keyboard still worked, and the screen hinges weren’t cracked. It had no NVME slots.

Thanks, that looks a little better, but still missing things like sending keystrokes to non-active windows. (Also, I’m on Mate desktop on most my computers.)

I just need xdotool. ydotool is missing almost everything. I don’t need programs sandboxed from each other. I don’t need that multi-DPI stuff (200% scaling works fine in X). Wayland doesn’t provide any features I’m missing.

They used to use analog computers to solve differential equations, back when every transistor was expensive (relays and tubes even more so) and clock rates were measured in kilohertz. There’s no practical purpose for them now.

In cases of number theory, and RSA cryptography, you need even more precision. They combine multiple integers together to get 4096-bit precision.

If you’re asking about the 24-bit ADC, I think that’s usually high-end audio recording.

The maximum theoretical precision of an analog computer is limited by the charge of an electron, 10^-19 coulombs. A normal analog computer runs at a few milliamps, for a second max. So a max theoretical precision of 10^16, or 53 bits. This is the same as a double precision (64-bit) float. I believe 80-bit floats are standard in desktop computers.

In practice, just getting a good 24-bit ADC is expensive, and 12-bit or 16-bit ADCs are way more common. Analog computers aren’t solving anything that can’t be done faster by digitally simulating an analog computer.

Inkjet printers are good for furry artists who sell prints at conventions. Hmm… that’s actually so specific that it reinforces your point.

Everyone already had the choice to use this before. You can visit any site with a search box, and add that site as a search engine to Firefox.

This is forcing it down people’s throats.

How do I prevent new antifeatures from being added? How do I even know about the new antifeatures as they are added? Does Mozilla publish an RSS feed of each antifeature like this that they add, that gives a quick explanation of how to undo it?

Qualcomm won’t send you a datasheet unless you can promise an order of 100,000. Arduino has always been open specification, and this is totally incompatible with Qualcomm.

I would never subscribe to Crunchyroll, because they use DRM.

Usually it’s this, but sometimes the Recaptcha doesn’t even load (looks like an IP ban). I just submit the form, and then get an error message saying I must complete a Recaptcha, but there’s no evidence in the page of any Recaptcha to fill out.

I’m on a residential ISP. I’ve checked every IP address reputation system I can find, and see no problems (except from “Clean Talk”, but they’re so small that I doubt Google uses them).

Also, I hate knowing that I’m doing unpaid labor to help train an AI that will make the world a worse place.

I can’t make an account, because I can’t complete a Recaptcha. Google Recaptcha is used on every ubuntu.com signin page. (This means I also can’t submit bug reports.)

Is this sarcasm?

I ran Steam on Wayland just fine for several years.

I got GOG Galaxy working in Steam, through Proton, as an “Add a non-Steam Game”. I’ll have to try Heroic Launcher.

Even if you can buy it, you can’t file a warranty return if you are outside Fairphone’s small support area.
