As often as I've seen entire teams of people take rude dependencies on pre-alphoid software?

PopOS did adopt Cosmic already, after all.

ah too bad my dock is displaylink

PopOs develops Cosmic, so it's not the best take

RawToast•7/8/24, 1:11 AM

Hey, I'm getting a steam deck freeze whenever I exit any game on it. I didn't see anything on this with a quick search, have you heard of this before?

huh what

OddrOP•7/8/24, 1:11 AM

developer or not, they decided to ship it -- that isn't a great take.

Jack Smith•7/8/24, 1:12 AM

:redhat:

halva•7/8/24, 1:12 AM

they're going to ship it because they develop it

Muko Tabi•7/8/24, 1:12 AM

I was thinking since web worker can detect real os of hardened firefox but it only detect it as windows in wine

doctor_shim•7/8/24, 1:12 AM

Does anyone know if displaylink even works on Bazzite? Perhaps installing it is futile

OOddr developer or not, they decided to ship it -- *that* isn't a great take.

give me one good reason i should use pop_os if it isn't for their bespoke software

Muko Tabi•7/8/24, 1:13 AM

~~it's in rust~~

the name is kinda funny

OddrOP•7/8/24, 1:14 AM

I will give you none. I have never touched PopOS nor would I care to proselytize someone's OS choice.

MMuko Tabi ~~it's in rust~~

Pez•7/8/24, 1:14 AM

that it compiles against the same ABI as regular C is not much of a selling point to me

I know it can work on Linux in general, don't know about Fedora/Bazzite specifically. But you can get a normal usb-c dock w/ HDMI for about $30 easily enough as opposed to using an odd protocol.

Muko Tabi•7/8/24, 1:15 AM

tho I'm sure they not gonna even try to ship cosmic DE as default to their laptop for at least another 2 years

Pez•7/8/24, 1:15 AM

it's still reasonable to expect that they would ship it by default at some point in the near future

Pez•7/8/24, 1:16 AM

there's basically no reason to use their distro if they don't provide something unique like this

doctor_shim•7/8/24, 1:16 AM

uhonestly if i could extend the cable to my steam deck dock to reach my. macbook then I wouldn't have bothered with the Anker

Muko Tabi•7/8/24, 1:17 AM

but can they do nvidia wayland yet

PPez there's basically no reason to use their distro if they don't provide something ...

Jack Smith•7/8/24, 1:17 AM

indeed, more over considering how slowly they launch updates

halva•7/8/24, 1:17 AM

tbh their gnome configuration is pretty cool even if a little janky

halva•7/8/24, 1:17 AM

but im pretty sure you can replicate it elsewhere

Pez•7/8/24, 1:18 AM

i don't think basing every decision on default dans is exactly the right move

Pez•7/8/24, 1:18 AM

mint users are default dans to me

Pez•7/8/24, 1:18 AM

no they drive complacency

halva•7/8/24, 1:18 AM

it's definitely not a feature considering X11 doesn't support variable refresh rate and multimonitor setups lol

Jack Smith•7/8/24, 1:19 AM

and its getting taken out from many desktop*

Pez•7/8/24, 1:19 AM

man if X didn't cause more issues than it was worth then we wouldn't be getting rid of it

Muko Tabi•7/8/24, 1:20 AM

1 in 5 linux user have multi monitor setup according to steam report so that's a lot

PPez man if X didn't cause more issues than it was worth then we wouldn't be getting ...

Jack Smith•7/8/24, 1:20 AM

I found some people still working on it, I though it was yk, death

Pez•7/8/24, 1:20 AM

and i argue that we dig too deep for those reasons, all mint really needs to do to capture default dans is install on their PC and also show them cat gifs

Jack Smith•7/8/24, 1:21 AM

and stop basing on ubuntu and go completely to debian base only* having the fork, of a fork, of a fork
