And in any case, it doesn't achieve the objective of newspeak, as those concepts are still being discussed.

Yet.

But I get what you are saying. I just find the similarities, although banal, kind of funny. In a scary kind of way.

You just described Newspeak (Nineteen Eighty-Four novel):

Newspeak, which is a controlled language of simplified grammar and limited vocabulary designed to limit a person's ability for critical thinking. The Newspeak language thus limits the person's ability to articulate and communicate abstract concepts, such as personal identity, self-expression, and free will,[1][2] which are thoughtcrimes, acts of personal independence that contradict the ideological orthodoxy of Ingsoc collectivism.[3][4]

It's almost as they are being concentrated in a camp.

I've the strange felling that it reminds me of something, but I really don't know what it is... 🤔

It’s pretty clear Disney had no fucking clue what they were doing with Star Wars after they acquired it.

One might argue that they still don't have a clue.

One word of advice to OP: don't wait till you can't use Windows anymore. Start by dual booting and getting a hang of Linux, but with windows at the ready for any tasks you cannot yet do/feel comfortable doing on Linux. As you get a better hold of Linux, you should naturally begin to use Windows less.

Good advice here OP.

Portugal uses "rabo" or "cu". "Bunda" is more a Portuguese Brazilian thing.

It has some differences like UK English and US English.

Hi everybody.

I was trying to make the switch to Wayland, but this little problem is really keeping me in X11.

The display turns off, says that there is no signal/input, turns off again but after that it wakes up immediately.

This happens either by using the shortcut to turn the display off Ctrl + Alt + D or waiting for the 10 minutes specified in the Energy Saving options.

I've found this Bug 462695 at KDE.org where it says the problem is from openSUSE.

I've already disabled KScreen 2 in Background Services.

In X11 the display has no problems entering energy saving mode.

Does anybody have the same problem or any idea what it might be keeping the display from sleeping?

My specs:

  • openSUSE Tumbleweed
  • Kernel 6.4.11-1-default
  • DE: Plasma 5.27.7
  • CPU Intel i5-4670K
  • GPU AMD ATI Radeon RX 6750 XT
