Support for higher levels of ARM SystemReady seem like they’re poorly supported in the Linux ecosystem right now.
ARM boards nearly always require a devicetree entry for that specific board.
This may not be entirely a Linux problem, but my understanding is that some of the x1 elite laptops we’ve seen DeviceTree entries added in the Linux kernel are using SystemReady ES or SystemReady SR on Windows
Ah. Open source would be better, but I don’t think AirPlay support is stopping anyone from using Linux.
I’m not sure about Sonos
PipeWire supports AirPlay…?
At least with PipeWire 1.4.9, I regularly cast audio to my wife’s Apple Homepod
The number of times I’ve been debugging something and a coworker messages “I asked ChatGPT and it said [obviously wrong thing]” makes me want to gouge my eyes out
Because they’re objectively better on a desktop.
Your compositor should control the window - if the poorly implemented client hangs, you can just click the server-side close button a couple times and get the “shall I force close this?” popup
The only reason for CSD is touch interfaces on small screens. In that case, you still need some other interface to handle misbehaving applications, but they tend to be harder to use, e.g. the removal of home/back buttons on Android
Edit: If you’re trying to improve on SSD, you could consider some model where the client can register some actions it would like to have displayed to the compositor, and the compositor can relay clicks back to the client. In this scheme, the compositor still owns the title bar, but the client can request special decorations
They’re using the new SOCAMM standard, which current consumer hardware can’t use.
It’s a different physical interface.
Whether it will end up coming to consumer grade motherboards… 🤷♂️
They’ve only been working on it for 11 years now…
If you’re really going down that route, you need to also remember that even the C programmed Linux Kernel is highly OOP
Fractional scaling w/ HiDPI displays, especially when the monitors are different resolutions, works so much better in Wayland than X11
Hey, the last one is great.
Now when I get asked “what do you think about Copilot,” I can just say, “I prefer LibreOffice”
Bindings have been getting added to the Linux kernel so drivers can theoretically be written in Rust
Android has moved its IPC mechanism, Binder, over to Rust
As bad as Epic is, probably worse…
Even though Bandcamp was profitable the new CEO said this after buying it
the financial state of Bandcamp has not been healthy
So they’re probably looking for any way to cut costs. They fired half of the staff on day 1, including anyone who tried to unionize
I dont know your specific network topology, but I’ve always been able to use
