I'm sure Jensen appreciates all the simping you do on his behalf.

(Btw that's sarcasm, in case it flew over your head. He doesn't know you exist.)

Cool beans, petrosimp. I'll even give you the opportunity to get the final word in, since you clearly want it. Go ahead.

It really isn't implied at all.

I genuinely don't mean this in a nasty way: I think you need more experience in talking to actual human beings face to face. The misunderstanding you have here is probably down to rusty communication skills.

Lmao you're the one being insulting, dipshit. Sorry you don't understand a highly researched event and are too fucking dumb to look into it. Seriously. I truly am sorry that you have to live with being that fucking dumb.

Keep spewing propaganda for big oil companies and petrostates like Russia, scum.

If you read that comment and thought they were saying that it's fine when Russia attacks Ukraine, so long as it's done from within Ukraine using shorter range missiles, then you need to touch some grass, speak face to face with some actual humans, and discover how people talk, because any normal person wouldn't interpret that comment that way.

Nah these people love imposing their BS on people.

And it's the numbers the UN have verified. Moron.

You're honestly so fucking stupid. Keep gobbling fossil fuel industry cock, dipshit.

Maybe take your own advice.

And again, sorry I insulted the GPU company you care so much about.

if you live on an island for generations with limited new genetic input...well, thats where you end up.

Literally the most diverse country in Europe lol

I doubt it's happening anymore. But it did happen for a while after the change to Gnome 3

Gnome.

  • The workflow is amazing once it "clicks" (but in the few days it takes before that happens, man it's annoying. You end up asking yourself time and again why don't they just copy Windows like everybody else)

  • With the exception of ElementaryOS, Gnome seems to be the only DE that really cares about design, especially in terms of consistency. Random bits of text in different sizes, different fonts in different places, inconsistent padding, improper handling of rounded corners, etc all really bug me. Most people don't seem to notice or care (probably because MS has trained us not to care about UX consistency lol), but for me it wears me out and makes me hate using PCs. Gnome is a polished UX and it feels like everything was designed very purposely, with a lot of thought.

  • There's a good ecosystem of GTK4/Libadwaita apps.

  • Probably have the best accessibility features.

  • It's really stable for being a modern DE.

  • I respect the devs for having a vision and sticking to it, despite getting hate/death threats for it. It's led to a different and very functional DE, unshackled from the traditional Win95 UX paradigm.

E: just because it's not your DE of choice doesn't mean you need to downvote me or send me DMs calling me names lmao. Some people in the Linux community are completely unhinged lol

I'm with the Gnome team here.

Sure, "point" releases with Gnome are generally only bug fixes, and Canonical likes that because they just merge those changes without doing much, if any, testing.

But it's also worth mentioning that:

  • Gnome is extremely pro-wayland. They've suggested it as default for non-nvidia hardware since 2016. Of course they're going to rush explicit sync support out, and they've done a good job getting it ready in a short space of time. What, are they just supposed to wait until September/October, just for the benefit of Canonical? Fuck no.

  • This was literally never an agreement in the first place.

  • This is a bugfix, in that it fixes the flickering issues with Nvidia hardware. So even if there was an agreement, I wouldn't consider it broken, really.

  • There are distros other than Ubuntu, and I imagine they want this fix ASAP.

  • Gnome is run by Gnome devs. Not by Canonical. If they don't like it, fork it or go back to Unity or something. It's not like Canonical doesn't have the money.

I fear people will interpret this story as "ugh gnome devs being gnome devs!", like they always do. But as usual, there's a reason for Gnome making this choice, and in this case they're unquestionably correct, IMO.
