    Yeah I tried it for XFCE yesterday*, noticed a few things I wanted weren’t there (because XFWM isn’t ported over) and promptly switched back. Didn’t seem to me like it was more responsive or anything like that**.

    But I am still using a 1050Ti, so who knows. That also kind of kills my interest in the idea even if I didn’t have fixed-if-you-use-this-specific-DE type issues. I also don’t really like the idea of CSD.

    * after looking up that labwc not being installed was why the session wouldn’t launch before

    ** entirely possible it is better in very specific scenarios, but the screen tearing that I see on X11 is diagonal (like the screen is 2 triangles, desynced) and honestly I don’t even know the exact game to test (as I don’t see tearing in videos or any other usage as far as I know)










  • It is indeed paved over. I’m sure there are reasons, but probably not good ones given potholes like this. Aside from initial cost, for large vehicles+higher speeds. IMO seems a bit like gluing carpet over wooden floorboards (which is another anger-inducing thing, especially if you’ve lived in a house with a carpeted bathroom).

    Not Just Bikes has a video on brick roads in the Netherlands (the bricks being called Klinkers, video called Natural Handcrafted Artisanal ... Streets?!), how they allow easier maintenance/re-use, brick designs instead of painting the surface after, worn klinkers used in historic areas etc.




  • I don’t like vinegary too much (or smoke/fermented flavor etc), I like El Yucateco Red*.

    Though it is a bit expensive for a tiny bottle. So I made a few big bottles trying my own spin* from garden habaneros (orange) and liked how it turned out.

    * I see the key ingredients: distilled white vinegar, citric acid, xantham gum and tomato paste EDIT: carrots is another trick, IIRC I fried mine with onions and bell peppers


  • Yeah, though I would say there is no need for the extra step of ATI.

    Specifically due to value, though Ryzen was a better value when it started (pricing more Intel-like as soon as Ryzen became successful). Well… a Ryzen APU might still be better value at ultra-low-end compared to a new GPU, though probably better off with a used Polaris GPU.

    To me it just seems like GPUs are still stagnated due to cryptomining, though gaming and raytracing hype probably doesn’t help either.

    If it’s not a simple chore, the reason I do this is usually that something needs to change*. I’ve had times in the past where I did do the thing and it was a marginal result (if even that). Just like I’ve had the needed changes happening resulting in improvement(s) making workflow as mentally easy as I expected.

    Specifically for any hope for a creative project, I’m not sure what the change(s) needs to be… though it could even be one of many indirectly related things. Doesn’t look like that is changing either way, though.

    * and I probably will not be the one to make said initial change
