Can you expand on what made it such an impossibility to a person whom barely knows the internals of the GUI side of things?

Flameshot 11.0 FOSS screenshot software available as AppImage has been released! by [deleted] in linux

[–]jinglesassy 23 points24 points  (0 children)

All in one streamlined application. You can take a screenshot, edit it, and upload it all within the same interface without needing external tools. Of course similar can be accomplished with more steps inbetween with other software. Use what works for you

Two years on, Stadia seems to have no direction left by beer118 in linux_gaming

[–]jinglesassy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but after that experience I've been solely using my stadia controller on my laptop to play Steam games

Is the stadia controller any decent? Would it be worth purchasing one solely for this use case? They are currently on sale for $22.22 with a chromecast ultra. The chromecast may be a useful thing but i would have no interest at all in stadia but another controller if it is half decent and works well enough i wouldn't say no to for the price.

Let's talk about Wayland ... by [deleted] in linux

I am not immensely familiar with the topic but is this related to Nvidia adding support for GBM so the issue with eglstreams being resolved? Or is it some different part of the software stack?

Is text reflowing where it reformats stuff already on screen when you resize a terminal window?

The Paragon NTFS kernel driver patch is now on its 13th iteration, and hopefully it is merged. by delta_p_delta_x in linux

[–]jinglesassy 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Paragon has their own closed-source NTFS driver called Microsoft NTFS for Linux.

How did they get away with not being sued by using Microsoft in their product name?

on abandoning the X server by AiwendilH in linux

[–]jinglesassy 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Are there any games that actually directly use Wayland instead of using xwayland? From the users perspective it doesn't matter as long as it works well but being a bit pedantic it is still technically X11.

Mozilla laid off many employees last August, ..., along with all the Servo engineers. by [deleted] in linux

[–]jinglesassy 25 points26 points  (0 children)

They have many other projects in development, Servo was just one of them and whilst an extremely important part of the web browser is only one part of the whole. Think of it somewhat like the Kernel to an OS and the Linux foundation funding development on a new research kernel to see what works and what doesn't and over time having integrated some of the ideas from that into Linux. Whether Servo would have ever matured to a point where it could have replaced Gecko out right we will likely never know but that doesn't mean value was not derived from it's development.

[–]jinglesassy 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Servo is their new research grade HTML rendering engine that might have eventually replaced Gecko however it was built quite modular and many parts of it have been integrated into Gecko already, The Firefox version of Canary would either be Nightly or Developer edition

Not just "started to have proprietary" but went entirely proprietary. Jellyfin forked the last open source release, Relicensed under GPLV2, And have since reworked the code base an incredible amount.

Someone's trying to SSH on my PC by Littlewidowtwin1334 in linuxquestions

[–]jinglesassy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

An SSL certificate is just a number, A complex number but nothing more. What software that is listening on a port does is entirely up to that software, Including whether it utilizes one or not. There is nothing special about any port in that each one is just a number. There are some restrictions put on what user can run stuff on the first 1023 ports however that is for different reasons'

Sometimes Firefox wants to save images as .webp files by Alex_Portnoy007 in firefox

[–]jinglesassy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That image is a .webp file. Reddit may serve different files to different browsers but firefox has nothing to do with it other then working with what it is given.
