Correct. Unfortunately, it’s something that each desktop environment or window manager has to implement themselves. But all the button is doing is moving some config files around, so you can probably do some digging to figure out what it’s copying to where.

This is the system settings application for the KDE desktop environment.

Literally yes. And you don’t even need to know the exact pixel resolution of the TV.

Edit: Here are the problems with you “Wayland isn’t good enough” people.

First, you don’t use Wayland, so you don’t even know if it’s fixed whatever weird issue you encountered with it before or if it supports a niche use case, for example.

Second, Wayland won’t get good enough for you until you start using it and reporting bugs. You think X11 was a bed of roses when it first started? Or do you think they bumped the version number 11 times for fun?

Not sure if you’re a troll, but if you’re serious, nothing I say is going to change your mind, so I won’t bother.

If you’re using Wayland, you can go to Settings -> Colors & Themes -> Login Screen (SDDM) and click “Apply Plasma Settings…”

If you’re using X11, it looks like you’ll have to resort to hacky scripts, unfortunately.

I mean. I can’t because I defederated from Threads. But neat, I guess.

I’m sorry I didn’t call out every exception to the rule. Obviously, if you do illegal things on my instance, I will care. I kind of thought that was a given, to be honest.

I run an instance. I promise, I have literally 0 care about who you are. I have much more productive things to do with my time.

I haven’t had a deletion request come around yet, but I’ve had the pict-rs documentation in my back pocket just in case. My instance allows NSFW, so I made sure I knew how to do this before deploying.

I agree with the author, though, it definitely shouldn’t be so hard to delete images. Hopefully the Lemmy devs tackle these issues quickly.

Layoffs for three of their most successful studios? That’s surprising.

In general, I agree, but it seems Mozilla is trying to do the right thing by AI. Offline translation is neat. And the Review Checker they just introduced uses AI to spot fake Amazon reviews. I think that’s pretty cool.

Haha, yeah, I’m familiar with the work culture in Japan. I’ve heard from other developers currently working there that it’s much better working for newer and/or international companies.

I’m taking my conversation-level Japanese courses this year and have been looking to land a dev job in Japan. From the sound of it, I’d like working for Pocket Pair a lot. But then again, most companies make their employment sound fantastic…

My ISP says my IP is technically dynamic, but it hasn’t changed once in the 6 years I’ve had their service. But that’s for the best, since they’re the only choice for symmetrical gigabit and their only option for static IPs is for business accounts.

So I continue to trust that they won’t change it. Fingers crossed.

complexities of Distrobox

they unironically say in comparison to the arcane language of fucking Nix, lmao

In addition to what’s been mentioned, Bazzite also updates the kernel and graphics drivers more often than SteamOS, so yes, while things are slightly more likely to break every now and then, there are some decent performance gains to be had.

I love Bazzite, but I wish they would fix the no audio after wake on the OLED. I encountered it often while running the testing release, so I went back to SteamOS to wait for a stable release with the fix. Imagine my disappointment when they released a new stable version with the bug still present. :(

So they’re repurposing surviving pancreas cells to produce insulin like the destroyed beta cells used to, but what are they doing about the autoimmune response? Will my immune system just kill the new insulin-producing cells as well?

Just because you’ve never used “iced” doesn’t make it uncommon. “Iced tea” is very popular beverage in the American south, for instance.

It’s not that they didn’t know Starbucks secret code (“iced” is a common term to use for putting ice in any drink). It’s that they used alcohol code instead (“on the rocks” is a common term to use for putting ice in alcohol).
