The latest Ubuntu defaults to using Wayland. On my Framework, it would freeze the whole box every few days. I switched to Xorg, and it was much better. (It’s an option on the login screen - just clock the little cog and choose Xorg before you log in.)

Perplexity cites its sources though, so you can just read those when you suspect it’s halloucinating.

It’s powerfulness IS the problem. Some parts of systemd are great. Some are meh! Some really suck. But because it’s monolithic, you can’t take the good bits and replace the bad. You have to take it all or nothing.

That’s the problem. Its architecture is offensively bad.

Malta. You just have to pay a (largish) fee, and they’ll have you.

Also punish the people responsible, like the developers, for their software and choice of used libraries.

What??

I have no idea why I am being down-voted.

Just FYI. I downvoted you for the whiny edit.

So now every site has cringe popups that nobody reads or understands, thanks regulators!!

It’s not the law that mandates the awful UI of those popups… it’s Google. I’m an adwords publisher, on my blog and a couple of (formerly!) popular web-apps. My sites were all compliant with the legislation, but not with Google’s policy for adwords publishers. Their algorithm sent me an e-mail threatening to cut off my income unless I implemented one of their “approved” cookie scripts. As any fool knows, it’s simply not possible to contact a real human at Google, so I was forced to do as they wished. So now all my sites have pointless, annoying cookie popups.

Everyone hates those popups, but don’t blame the legislation - blame Google for forcing the whole Internet into malicious compliance.

It’s crazy crazy sort order that I can’t stand. They deliberately go in and remove certain characters from the filename, specifically to make the sorting behave weirdly.

They missed my personal favourite:

SHIFT + INSERT … paste the content of the PRIMARY select buffer (currently selected text).

I certainly want a MicroSD slot and a headphone jack on any phone I buy. These are features I use. A lot.
