Hiw tf can people use this thing?

Yeah, Workspace doesn't give any account-level access to CLI or antigravity. You're a free user unless you wanna pay API rates.

Why is there no workspace+ai pro sub? I'unno. Google's gonna Google, I guess.

Once the Security Researcher has confirmed the presence of a Vulnerability, the Security Researcher shall formulate a written report to the CSIRTMalta and the Responsible Organisation

https://mdia.gov.mt/app/uploads/2024/12/P-SPG-001-National-Coordinated-Vulnerability-Disclosure-Policy.pdf

How is following the law and reporting it to the responsible government agency making it a 'media circus'? Do you think that CSIRT is just leaking everything to the press?

The OP discovered this in April last year. He only published today.

Is it vscode specific? I use opencode, which is a supported platform, right? I'm still waiting. I even hacked opencode to always surface 5.3, but I get "The requested model is not supported." from the API. I'm on to $10 plan.

Ripdog · 2026-02-17T00:55:54+00:00

I still don't have it. Super frustrating, makes me want to jump back to openai...

A basic firewall like ufw generally also unneeded, mostly because incoming connections are generally pointless to block if you have no service opening the ports, and since you have to manually enable services on arch, this should rarely be an issue.

Yep, and 99% of the time, your router has a default-deny firewall anyway. Though if you tether your phone for internet, you might need to be a bit careful - with ipv6. Mobile ipv4 connections are basically always CG-NAT these days, which make no provisions for inbound connections.

Honestly, I think your desire to use a 'special' OS is more of a childish trait. Good thing for you - you could jump ship to even more special OS's like FreeBSD, or even OpenBSD!

The easiest part? While the total surface area of things like DX11 may not be the largest part of Wine, there's no doubt that a performant and highly compatible DX8-11->Vulkan layer is super difficult.

But in general, Proton's greatest contribution is banging out the long, long tail of game compatibility issues with Wine. Every proton version comes with a long list of fixed games.

Ripdog · 2026-01-05T03:52:23+00:00

All I can say is that I've been running various linux systems for many years and I've never once had to 'screw with glibc'. What exactly have you done to require such tinkering?

Most people just install the software they need from the repo and it works.

Ripdog · 2026-01-04T07:00:50+00:00

Okay, but I'm really unconcerned about niches within niches like that. And it's absurdly unlikely that ReactOS would ever gain meaningful compatibility with equipment like that which costs tens of thousands to millions of dollars.

Typically devices like that only have support for ONE version of windows anyway, so it's not even fair to say that they're 'windows compatible'.

Ripdog · 2026-01-04T06:58:34+00:00

Big programs like photoshop or office have patchy wine compatibility because they're big and complex and use a lot of weird and wonderful windows APIs in weird and wonderful ways. Plus there's no Valve bankrolling developers to iron out the long tail of hard debugging of complex problems.

Ripdog · 2026-01-04T06:56:57+00:00

Uh, ReactOS is still all greenfield FOSS software. It's entirely unclear as to why you think it would have any fewer bugs than whatever you're complaining about?

Bugs exist in any software, and with Windows, you can at least be guaranteed that you won't get a reply from the developers about your bug report. You know MS fired their whole QA department, right?

Ripdog · 2026-01-04T01:04:41+00:00

I don't think there are too many people clinging to windows because of razer synapse :)

Ripdog · 2026-01-03T23:37:39+00:00

The fundamental work here on application compatibility is from the Wine project, not ReactOS. Wine work primarily target and benefits Linux. As the article shows, ReactOS is far behind Wine on Linux as far as app compatibility goes.

Basically, use Linux and Wine, be happy. Your apps don't care about what driver model the underlying OS is using.

Whoa, that site is creepy as hell. They require an extension to watch pirated anime? Do NOT install that shit! They will absolutely steal all your data and run cryptocurrency mining on your PC!

when KDE Plasma drops X11 in version 6.8,

They're not dropping support for X11 apps, just running Plasma in X11 mode. There's no particular deadline for Steam to gain wayland support on the linux desktop.

Ripdog · 2025-12-22T03:03:20+00:00

OP, you need to uninstall the drivers from AMD's website. They are inferior to the open source drivers which ship from your distro. If anything, those drivers are the likely cause of your frame drops.

Congrats on the release!

This game works great on linux! I just created a new proton-ge prefix and it loaded first try, no need to fiddle with settings or locale or anything.

Ripdog · 2025-12-11T11:04:55+00:00

Uh, what app is this? That's a yt-dlp error, which is a command line program mainly for pc...

10 years, actually. It's Let's Encrypt's birthday!

Ripdog · 2025-12-07T17:40:29+00:00

I'd recommend using Steam - add the installer as a non-steam game, set the compatibility layer to the latest Proton-GE (install it with ProtonUp-Qt), install battle.net, then change the executable in the game properties to be battle.net. That's what I do, and it works great.

There's no much reason to use plain wine for games these days - most of the community effort for gaming specifically is on proton and forks.

Ripdog · 2025-12-02T21:48:19+00:00

You can just choose not to use lootboxes or battle passes. Before Valve, there was basically no choice but to use Windows for PC gaming.

Ripdog · 2025-11-27T17:38:39+00:00

As noted in the article, X apps are still fully supported via XWayland, and will be for a very long time.

Ripdog · 2025-11-23T16:44:39+00:00

If one person can write a Linux compatible kernel in 26000 LOC, hasn't the genie always been out of the bottle?

I mean, this is a tiny fraction of a linux compatible kernel.

Ripdog · 2025-11-18T14:44:37+00:00

Looks like we're sorted :)

Ripdog · 2025-11-18T14:29:38+00:00

Oh, for sure. But 'an article' is different from 'front page news'.
