    preppers don't want to be dependent on society because they don't like society, but they're not bright enough to realize they will always be dependent on society

    the deployed architecture of linux is still evolving right now and there are lots of distros experimenting with different approaches

    • how the basic core OS is structured - immutability, A/B partitions, versioned rollback
    • how third party applications are executed - containerization, compatibilty, virtualization, bare metal
    • how software is updated and stored - package management (apt, pacman, nix, flatpak)

    i'm sure i've missed other features of new linux distros. this is all really important stuff but has nothing to do with the apps you actually use day to day

    any copyrighted work must be given (copied) to the AI company to be injested

    if that transaction is not sanctioned (licensed) by the copyright owner it is an infringement

    as for social media content, i think we sign our rights away when we sign up for them, but they are subject to copyright by Meta or whoever

    the notoriously conservative Torvalds allowing Rust where C++ has been banned is worth crowing about, because he knows Rust is great, mate. nobody cares about a bunch of non-Rust coders not wanting to use Rust in the beta version of the kernel toochain

  • However, if I log in and immediately log out, Wayland is available on the login screen and you log in to a Wayland session. This is identical on both my laptops, they are very different in hardware and performance. This started happening after updates about 3 weeks ago. I have looked at logs and I can see the subsystems trying Wayland and falling back to X but I can't see an obvious reason (probably my lack of experience at this). Anyone else experienced similar?
