I do a little bit of everything. Programming, computer systems hardware, networking, writing, traditional art, digital art (not AI), music production, whittling, 3d modeling and printing, cooking and baking, camping and hiking, knitting and sewing, and target shooting. There is probably more.

  • It’s funny because the meta quest recently had an update that got rid of custom/user created environments for the home area and only gave you some shitty options. The default one was a shitty balcony that overlooked a big stupid tower advertising this and they made the “portal” to it permanent and unremoveable.

    In addition to this almost every time you opened a menu it would pop up a fucking ad/link to enter the application almost every time.

    Pretty sure now this was a desperate last ditch effort to try to increase traffic - but clearly NO ONE wanted it and it just pissed everyone off more.

    If they want to save face to any degree they should revert that fucking patch ASAP. I miss my home environment being a fucking derelict warehouse.

    The word, logo, and slogan etc for Amazon is not in the image.

    If you recognize that it is amazon, it doesn’t make it an ad for amazon.

    The post does nothing to imply you should shop on amazon, it just shows a set of search results from it and furthermore expunges 95% of the interface and the logo.

    2 years ago you posted a picture of an Ohio license plate. That does not mean that you are posting an advertisement implying people should go to Ohio for tourism.

    If someone posts a picture of google search results are they advertising for google?

    Just recognizing where something is from does not necessitate that it is an advertisement. However if you readily recognize where something is from, perhaps instead it just means that that companies actual advertising has been effective on you.





  • The problem isn’t really with Wayland not working though, it’s with other software not being caught up to work fully with wayland.

    For example, in X, I can have my single screen windows work laptop display to my multi-monitor linux machine with remmina and be able to interact with the laptop as if it had multiple monitors.

    Remmina cannot do this with Wayland as far as I have been able to determine.

    Clearly not the fault of Wayland, but also kind of a pain in the ass that there are issues like this since some other maintainers/devs haven’t implemented what is required in their software yet.

    Well shit. I would like this better if more things played nicely with wayland, as wayland itself seems pretty great. Remmina for example can’t do multi-monitor outside of x for example and this is breaking for me when i remote into my work computer.

    I realize that this is the fault of remmina and not wayland. Any RDP client recommendations that work on wayland for this?
