this martin guy is the same one who made the asahi linux drama a thing and brigaded torvalds?

yeah. fuck that guy. i don’t care what he has to say about some 20 year old code that nobody cares if it was decompiled from ninty’s sdk or not. nintendo isn’t even making a fuss about it! this is all just martin scrambling for more attention, again.

tried again, and yeah display settings was where i first tried, and no, ‘none’, ‘icc’ with multiple diff profiles, and ‘built-in’ all change absolutely nothing but the keep changes popup shows up like it worked fine; no errors or anything. then i went into trying with colord and colormgr cli commands like i said before. it does see my monitor under display and resolution and whatnot are correct and do change, just not the color profile.

everything works as it should under x11 session.

regardless, the whole point of my og comment was color management protocol isn’t only hdr stuff. even in the significant issues page for kde it says color management and HDR protocol in the bullet point about programs that need accurate color profiling.

it seems pretty obvious to me on word meanings alone that ‘color management protocol’ isn’t only for relatively new hdr tech, but instead everything to do with color management, like how color profiles are under ‘color management’ in the system settings you’re telling me to use that the wiki says isn’t ready yet…

from https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ICC_profiles

"Wayland

Wayland supports color management through color profiles, but the user interface for managing these profiles is currently not implemented properly. However, you can manually add a color profile through the following steps: Firstly, copy your .icc color profile file to the /usr/share/color/icc/colord/ directory. Run colormgr get-profiles to obtain the available color profiles, and colormgr get-devices to obtain the IDs of the attached devices. To assign a color profile to a device, use the command colormgr device-add-profile Device_ID Profile_ID. The device ID is obtained from the output of colormgr get-devices and the profile ID from colormgr get-profiles. For example, if your device ID is “DP-3” and the profile ID is “icc-5fb87663ba378cadf463ba64d92dced3”, the command would look like: $ colormgr device-add-profile DP-3 icc-5fb87663ba378cadf463ba64d92dced3 With these steps, you can manually manage your color profiles in Wayland until the user interface is fully implemented. Once the ICC profile is added with this method, it will show up and work as expected in system settings like Color Manager in the KDE Plasma settings. "

copy to colord folder, eh?

the part i have trouble with is colormgr shows no devices and nothing happens trying commands to load an icc profile. it’s no big deal, i’ll just use x11 until this gets fixed but others on arch forums and reddit threads has this same issue with kde wayland, and judging by the ‘user interface isn’t ready yet’ i’m guessing it’s just not ready yet.

but sure, colord has nothing to do with it and color management protocol is ONLY for hdr tech.

am i taking crazy pills?

that has nothing to do with metric vs imperial:

“Lumber manufacturers typically cut a tree into the various standard types of dimensional lumber very shortly after the tree is felled. At this point, the 2 x 4 is actually 2 inches x 4 inches, a 2 x 10 is actually 2 inches x 10 inches, etc. But then the newly-sawn (but soaking wet) lumber is then kiln-dried until it reaches the desired moisture level. During this process, it shrinks as the moisture in the wood is removed and the wood cells shrink. Once the drying is complete, the boards are then planed to a standard size. Hence, what started out as a 2 x 4 now measures 1 1/2 inches x 3 1/2 inches.”

i’m using kde on endeavouros. when using wayland the color profiles section in settings does nothing. you can go pick a profile and click ok but it just doesn’t load it. colord is the daemon that handles color profiles entirely and that’s what this is about.

not just hdr stuff, it’s all color profiling. my old monitor is dark af with wayland because it’s not loading its color profile and i can’t adjust gamma or apply color profiles in settings or with colord like you can in x. i really need this to be able to switch to wayland.

one of her reasons is “erasure of femininity in gaming” with a screen bemoaning “masculine features” of modern female characters, and her pinned comment says “you know things are bad when oblivion npcs are prettier than some of these new game characters” and also thanks asmongold for sending viewers her way.

so uh, how about no for this hateful garbage.

lmao same

no, it did not. the initial lockdown at the beginning lowered violent crime a great deal, and the rate rose back up after lockdowns were lifted, but still not to the rate from before the pandemic. this isn’t out of date; you’re remembering media reports and propagandists online intentionally misrepresenting this data by only looking at during lockdown and just after, pretending lockdowns and mask mandates and other covid response measures as causing crime.

cinnamon, lxde, kde, and mate are all desktop environments that mimic the basics of windows ui like the taskbar, start menu, and windows with minimize, maximize, and exit buttons at the top. and all can be installed/selected during install on pretty much every popular distro. there’s prolly some others i’ve forgotten but those are all solid choices.

edit: whoops had mint listed but that’s not a de that’s a distro

fighting for bitcoin to get an emoji is stupid, but fighting against it might be even stupider. surely there are more important things to spend your time and energy on. it’s a fucking emoji. who cares?

yup, and both bluesky and threads will be/are exactly as bad, too.

learned nothing from hillary? what? how is kamala as nominee in any way the same as hillary except that she’s a woman?

no. not using the flag as clothing or whatever is talking about an actual flag, not the design being printed and used whatever other way. it’s about changing/destroying an actual flag meant for flying as a flag and also only pertains to officials or orgs representing the govt. an individual citizen can do whatever they want with their purchased or homemade flags with the right of freedom of expression.

at least, for now.

shit box or luxury car, this article is not talking about motor controller or battery controller software.

battery controllers and motor controllers are available as cheap, simple, stable, off-the-shelf dedicated hardware and there’s no reason budget evs would need to do any coding for them, maybe just some variable adjustment. those things are not controlled by the user facing software being talked about here.

yeah sure. there’s the connection level of each knot itself, with higher levels giving you more chiral bandwidth and i’m pretty sure gives you higher numbers of online structures in that area too, but i’m not certain about that.

other than that tho there’s bridge contracts which state they give you a stronger connection to that player so you both share more of your structures with each other. i actually forgot about that until the last few days and after adding the max 30 contracts i def have more structures.

i also suspect that if you like online structures actively rather than just letting it get a like when you use it the game gives you more other players and structures as well, but i’m not certain on that one either. it makes sense to me what with the ‘likers get liked’ sign mechanic and how the amount of likes you can get overall is a skill to improve as well as your time to give likes increasing with skill as well.

online stuff smattered everywhere. plenty of people still playing and i imagine a good handful also snagged it like i did when epic gave it away for a day. there’s also older stuff like well placed safe houses and joke bridges on flat land or mountain peaks that have an insane number of likes so they must’ve been there for years.

also there’s a page where you can see the players you’ve interacted with, your likes for them and their likes for you and it also shows last login date, and most of mine are online recently like me with some maybe last logged in in january, or late last year. i did see one who hasn’t played since '22 but they’ve still got stuff in my world, too, so i think there’s some playtime syncing where a bridge or whatever might actually be destroyed in their game if they logged in today but since it was there from hour 5 to 25 of their playthrough you’ll get it at hour 5 and will stay if you repair it unlike they did. but that’s a guess.

edit: for quick reference when you log in you get a summary of people liking your stuff and yesterday i saw “75 players are pleased with you, 7328 likes”. so definitely still active. also no spoilers but there are a game mechanic or two that affects how many other players you are connected to, so your actions in game can determine how many people’s stuff shows up, as well.
