Yup, this is huge. Wayland gaming is now a possibility. With Explicit Sync (needed for NVIDIA users) and VRR, there's now no excuse to keep gaming in X11 in both DEs.

Nonsense. This is huge, as I suspect many people, like myself, switched to KDE because it was the DE that was perfect for gaming in Wayland.

So this is huge for the community! Gaming is now possible in two of the most popular and used DEs.

As for the weather application. Don't blame GNOME, blame the weather provider (OpenWeather).

It's all about getting users to buy new PCs that can run the AMAZING AI! (I'm being sarcastic here). It's good for AMD and Microsoft's pockets.

In the '90s and early 2000s, Microsoft's business model was the classic one of selling products to customers. Today, it's all about the cloud, advertising, and AI, where the product is the user.

I agree. Lemmy is not Twitter like, it is Reddit like, it is a forum.

They will just enable it by default later when the heat passes. They always do. You no longer own Windows.

I think we are now in a positive cycle:

  • More and more useful comments are posted,
  • Which means more people get interested,
  • which attracts more and more people to the platform
  • That increases the quality and quantity of posts/comments/etc.
  • etc.

Brave is Chromium based. UBlock will be affected by the changes.

Firefox is the way. If you haven't tried Firefox since 2008, you should. It is as fast as Chrome. It has improved significantly since 2008.

Google Search uses a regular search algorithm. Google AI overview will be a product that feeds from Google search.
