Rootless Xorg is still a niche thing?
Yet another, “well, yeah, technically it has security ramifications, but I’m not admin’ing any multiuser machines, so I’m not losing any sleep over it” bug.
What do you expect? X11 is in maintenance mode. Although I’ll miss Polybar, I won’t miss the protocol.
Is it? Afaik it very much is not
Well, freedesktop.org is now focused on Wayland (Xorg is not getting HDR, new synchronization protocols, or proper VRR (unless through XWayland), while Wayland is). RedHat RHEL marked Xorg as deprecated last year and will not even support it by next year (RHEL 10). KDE and GNOME also default to Wayland.
That thumbnail lol
Sysadmin job be like
I’ve got a few old PCI cards around somewhere. I should pull one of them out and give them a try at this.
If this metal thingy is anything like the one used as dust covers inside PC cases it’ll just bend (I’ve actually tried to use one as a bottle opener).
Works well for cans, though, in my experience.
For a while I had a fiber SFP that was amazing at opening cans, too.
Perfect Christmas gift idea
Its good that people care enough to keep finding these vulnerabilities
Yeah, This case especially since it includes XWayland
bruh
