I do think there's a balance to be struck where at some point, a larger swath of people need to use that software even if it's not 100% ready, as then it creates more 'pressure' to actually address those final roadblocks. Wayland did seem to improve at a faster rate since it was introduced by default on some distros.

And at least in the Linux world, we have many options to avoid being on that bleeding edge. I'm pretty happy just sticking with Debian as opposed to getting the new stuff, and while I was annoyed I couldn't use my preferred DE on Fedora, I've learned that Debian is actually pretty slick in its own way, which removed the slight sense of FOMO I once had.

The M&P Shield Plus is very comparable, and has a trigger dingus (it's insane the p365 doesn't with how light the trigger is).

Other option would be the Springfield Hellcat.

Until other countries begin accepting asylum claims from U.S. Citizens, that simply isn't an option available to most of us, except for the wealthy or those who already have the desired jobs that would allow them to emigrate.

You have no idea how much I would love to see a general strike tomorrow, or literally any time before 3 fucking years from now, and if we're lucky that will happen.

But so far the only concrete date we have that's being pushed by our biggest unions is May 1st, 2028, so that's the date I'm going to spread. If there is a call to have one sooner by any of the major unions, then I'll switch to spreading that one instead.

Less than 10% of the US workforce is unionized. Non-unionized workers are terrified to unionize, or to join in a general strike without one due to living hand to mouth, often a month's wages away from homelessness, and many more with health conditions rely on their job for critical life insurance to afford staying alive.

Unlike the EU, we don't have strong social safety nets that would encourage a less formal and spontaneous general strike.

That's not to say I don't understand how time sensitive this is, and that every week we wait, the regime gets stronger and more able to suppress us, but I'm trying to work with what I've got.

If you have any suggestions, I'd be happy to hear them.

I can't find anything referencing 2030, so I assume you're joking (or something is whooshing over my head).

For others reading, May 1st 2028 is still on, plan around it and try to get any contracts you negotiate to end on that day (but strike with the rest of us even if not).

Hell fuckin' yeah! Y'all best slap an email to the IWW and get that ball rolling so you'll be able to join the general strike planned for May 1st 2028 (May day).

From what I recall when trying it, I don't think KDE had X11 as an option either, which is my preferred DE. The other spins did retain X11 though.

My laptop with Nvidia graphics became unstable due to faulty hardware, so I used the opportunity to switch to an AMD desktop to hopefully have longer term reliability. I would've stuck with the laptop and just used Linux Mint, had it not failed.

Fedora 42 even eliminated X11 as an option (I think they're reversing that stance now, though), which made it unusable on my (now dead) Nvidia laptop with dual monitors. I thought they really jumped the gun on that one.

I ended up jumping to AMD graphics so I wouldn't have any problems with Wayland, but then discovered there's a nasty bug that causes frequent system freezes on AMD systems. Thankfully I was on Debian, so I could easily switch back to X11. Things have been stable now, but I just feel like I can't win with Wayland 😅

Wayland does seem to work well with Intel graphics, at least.

Hm, here's a direct link to the screenshot on their response, hopefully that one works.

They don't mention what it does track, unfortunately.

Sorry! Messed the link up. Should work now.

A lemmy user emailed Slate about tracking and data collection, and they responded that the Slate will have no wifi or tracking capabilities.

Also @ptc075@lemmy.zip

I'd noticed your comments advertising that site in past, but since you regularly engaged with lemmy outside of advertising your battery deals site, I didn't feel the need to step in. But astroturfing your site as though you're a random activist who 'just so happened to be looking at this cool site that's totally not mine™' is a step too far, treading into scummy territory.

I don't want to see any more links to gearscouts on slrpnk.net communities from this point forward. And if you decide to continue to advertise on other instances; for gods sake man, just own that it's yours.
