Which is what you see happening when updating or reinstalling a gpu driver.

Funny thing is, gpu drivers can still cause a bsod by causing fuckups in the directx driver, which ive seen happen :')

You think ive touched the apt commands in linux…?
I mean, youre right, but thats because i like to be hands on. But i dont have to if i wanted :p

Op inverted. apt update updates the local package cache of apt so it knows what packages have updates. apt upgrade then installs those updates.

Gamers nexus blocks updates on every test round. When they do update their test systems they block updates and retest all hardware in their charts. The software is also the same, besides platform or driver specific software. They truly go for reproducible and as less unknown factors as possible, hence the discussion

I think it has to do with the google certification you have to go through to sell hardware shipping with android. All devices need to be certified by google or they are not allowed to run gapps or connect to the playstore. This is what huawei lost after trump banned them, so they had to make their own shit as a replacement

Yes, think cheap android tablets that are so shit google store can barely run on it. Those devices are usually chinese knockoffs and do not ship with google services, google store or any gapps.

Im guessing though. I remember seeing it on 4chan as a teenager so thats between 2006 and 2010 or aomething :p

In 2008? More than you’d think.

It is not, its been a thing since circa 2008

Thats good to hear. Might have to switch back to the flatpack then!

Im not using wayland lol
Too many issues in linux mint (cinnamon) last time i tried :')

The flatpak has (had?) Issues of not being able to stream application or desktop audio. The system package can and is way more up to date.
Flatpak is not the solution to everything lol

Do they also make cables that dont have the power pin (21 iirc?) Connected so both gpu and monitors try to power each other and never actually power up?

Jokes on you, docker on windows uses wsl too :')

Pff, issue reports should ask for the output of ‘uname -ar’. It clearly shows its wsl as wsl runs a special kernel

And msys

Windows subsystem for linux.
Its basically a microsoft linux kernel, running in a hypervisor, with a linux distro built on top. The subsystem also supports xserver and wayland too

what ? Thunderbird exists…

3,5,7, 12 and 13 for me haha

You and i read different things. I hated how he worded them, but his arguments at greppable and understandable are valid arguments that go beyond rust and if he can read it or not or refuses to.
Mixing languages in a part of a project brings complexity and is often a huge ass nono because it makes things unreadable and hard to manage on a large scale.
He also argues that a c interface exists to connect 2 parts of a system. The person that changes the interface should not have to alter the users of that interface, if they do then you get intertwined dependencies, which is a huge ass red flag for developers that something has gone terrible wrong and the project is not going to scale or will be easy to change.
So if he changes the interface, the rust team will need to fix it, specially since they are the minority.
That also doesnt mean he can change it in whatever way without worry, it is an interface change, that needs discussions and approvals ahead of time ofc.
