WSL(2) was not Microsoft “being good”. It was part of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.
It was clear Linux won in the server world (not IIS). So why don’t you run this lovely Linux as an app in our nice safe OS where we can keep milking you.

Ah too bad, was worth a shot. Other than dissecting the KDE snapshot tool I have no other ideas. Good luck on your search…


I haven’t done this myself but maybe you can script something with OBS? It is made for screencapturing and it seems to work with Wayland according to the Arch Wiki.
I don’t know about AES67 but I’ve used Snapcast now for a few years and it works great. I use a central Mopidy service that streams to a few Snapcast clients connected to audio devices (not directly to speakers though). The clients run on normal PC hardware, Android and some on Pi’s with DAC’s from Hifiberry. The setup was very DIY but has been running very stable after that.


That AI bot must be saturated with break-up and “Delete Facebook, hit the gym!” advice…


New product is part of OpenAI’s broader strategy to capture data on users’ web behavior
So, not really a new browser but new spyware…


It’s a sad state of affairs. I would pay for youtube in a heartbeat if it wasn’t connected to the biggest spyware company in the world. But now, even while paying you still get ads and they still track you. The people working at Alphabet are bad and should feel bad.


It is a nice look into the switch from a perspective of a windows user. But since he is experimenting there is a also a lot of bad choices or wrong information.
He gripes about things not going smoothly while replacing his whole desktop environment (when was the last time you replaced your explorer.exe?).
And clamping to old ways of doing things. Which is understandable but would go a lot better with a little bit of guidance. Why force Chrome while Firefox was probably pre-installed or Chromium also works. Using Filezilla while Dolphin can probably do it in an integrated way. Using Notepad++ while Kate probably covers most of his use-cases.
This doesn’t invalidate his experiences but it does indicate a resistance to switch.
There is some valid criticisms as well though. The docking station that bugs out or KDE Connect that is confused. We can improve those things, but hardly force Logitech to bring their (horrible) software suite to Linux.
Maybe he should give it another few weeks to actually feel that while his old ways might not transfer over 1:1 the new ways give him a lot more power.


What a horrible human being. If destroying books or repressing knowledge is part of your dogma you are on the wrong side of history.

Hmm, the years are a bit faded but first install of Redhat in 1996-7 somewhere as a short experiment, then Slackware, SuSE, LFS, Gentoo, and since then lazy with Kubuntu… Might switch again soon with the Snap fiasco.
The BOFH and his PFY are still helping their users…


Try sunglasses? But maybe other souls can still be saved from evil…


Disadvantage: you’re now using a browser from the biggest spy ad-ware company and killed web heterogeneity.


Same for the Netherlands.
Joplin has their own sync-server you can run as Docker container; free for personal use…
