Mouse recorders don’t work on Wayland

Color pickers on Wayland are janky af

Screenshot capture on Wayland is weird, if you copy an image to clipboard with Spectacle or Flameshot, it leaves the clipboard when the Screenshot captured notification disappears

My TV doesn’t detect input via HDMI on Wayland

The problem is many government and need-to-live-comfortably services tend to require a non-dumb phone, and the number of services is only increasing

Let me know if this works

Congrats, that’s the kind of effort you’ll need :). Try this tutorial next: It will walk you through creating your first couple of apps. Again, it’s super hard and long, but if you can get through it you’ll be in a great place to start thinking about your own apps, doing more advanced tutorials, and applying for jobs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blXLGW5IuXU

Well THAT’S clear hahahaha … So does that mean I’m using PulseAudio or PipeWire?

It means you’re using Pipewire :D. I think Pipewire builds on top of PulseAudio or integrates it or something. In any case, try this command to confirm it’s Pipewire:

systemctl --user status wireplumber.service

My output looks like this:

● wireplumber.service - Multimedia Service Session Manager
     Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/user/wireplumber.service; enabled; preset: enabled)
     Active: active (running) since Thu 2024-12-05 13:12:41 PST; 2 days ago

(The (running) means it’s running)

That path doesn’t even exist

It might be under /usr/share/wireplumber/main.lua.d/. The only difference is this folder is for system files that affect all users, but given that this bug is happening on your own hardware that’s probably what you want to change anyways

(You can also create ~/.config/wireplumber/main.lua.d/50-alsa-monitor.lua if you want; this is assuming you didn’t change your XDG directories to not use .config)

I think you could probably do it - You live in a country with good internet, good access to technology, etc.

If you can afford to go to school, I would recommend doing that. If you can’t, try out Android app development: It’s not easy, but if you put in a lot of work for a year or two, you can make pretty good money (once you start making a few apps, you’ll be able to get 100k IDR/hour). Start with this tutorial installing Android Studio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10IvxreBoIA

If you can get Android Studio installed, let me know, I’ll find a good tutorial to help you write your first basic app.

Programming is a great way to make money, even remotely, but it’s very difficult. If you’re interested and up for the challenge, going to school for programming (computer science) will help a lot in the future.

What country are you from?

Use this command to determine if your using Pulse or Pipewire on the backend:

pactl info | grep "Server Name"

If it says you’re using PulseAudio, then use these commands to switch to Pipewire:

sudo apt install pipewire pipewire-audio-client-libraries wireplumber
systemctl --user --now disable pulseaudio.service pulseaudio.socket
systemctl --user --now enable pipewire pipewire-pulse wireplumber

If that doesn’t fix it, I suspect the issue might have to do with suspending power, like /u/dingdongitsabear@lemmy.ml suggested. Edit ~/.config/wireplumber/main.lua.d/50-alsa-monitor.lua and add

["node.pause-on-idle"] = false,
["session.suspend-timeout-seconds"] = 0,

Save and reboot. Let me know if that fixes it

If it’s any good, I’m still under X, not Wayland, and using Pulse Audio.

Switch to Pipewire. It’s a drop-in replacement with many bugs fixed.

Back when I was a wee bit Java noob, I was trying to write a RuneScape bot to play Soul Wars. I had a basic recursive pathfinding algo for figuring out how to walk around the map, but it blew out of memory very quickly (each tile has 4 options, do that recursively, etc). So I added caching. Anyways, I never cleared the caching. So after 20 minutes of running the script, you had like 2GB of allocated RAM calculating the best path from any 2 tiles in the minigame.

Great times. No amount of language safety features would have saved me from that stupidity.

Just set the temperature to zero, duh

memory leak fixes,

But muh Rust??

For all the memes about programmers quitting and wanting to take up a simple life? Yea, I can see this working out

(Caveat: Life as a bartender is only simple if you don’t need to worry about money, like ex-programmers)

I like the aesthetic and theming support

My only request is make it so that in April Fools you can play as Windows and it’s slow af

+1 for going with a third party on something like this. Your small shop is an expert in whatever they’re doing, don’t try and recreate someone else’s buisness thinking it will be easy

??? What is the context of this obvious lie

Linux desktop environments is the Trans rights of politics. Very easy to debate, everyone has an opinion, but not where the focus should be

You didn’t mention KDE’s lack of any adequate stability

What year is it

As GNOME gets ready to strike, KDE appears to start studdering… What is going on over there?? Is that the KDE baloo file indexer starting up? Oh no! A perfect connect as KDE falls to the ground!!

Oh what’s this - GNOME seems to be standing there idle. Did the boxing task get backgrounded? Heaven knows it’s impossible to find the running programs on GNOME. KDE and GNOME are both tabbed out of the boxing window!

Let’s take a look into the crowd… MacOS seems to have left the building to refresh it’s permissions, and Windows is still booting up the programs that all self updated post restart. XFCE is hanging out in the corner but is all out of sync due to poor refresh rates on X11. Hyperland seems to be bullying someone in the bleachers, but it’s hard to see exactly what’s going on there…

Ding ding ding

Looks like KDE is out! Baloo didn’t finish in time for KDE to get up. Let’s see what happens in round 2!
