IMO this shouldn't be default, since it messes with the link you're copying, not only because of the potential to break.

Another counterpoint: When you start implementing all that dummy proofing, you make the software more and more tedious to work with for people who know what they're doing.
I think it's quite obviously an issue that needs balance. Some software is meant to be seamless to get started with, so that users can get something done once in a while, some software is meant to be used long-term by professionals and requires productivity. And yet, many people jump on anything they don't immediately understand as bad UX.
an Artificial Intelligence, a sentient being
So, an artificial sentience then?
It was the laser that's 20 gigawatts, according to the article, which is notable because such a laser is hard to redirect.
As for the viability of holodecks... Obviously the rest of your points are still valid, but one can only hope that someday we'll figure something out, the technology being impossible/unviable right now doesn't mean it'll stay that way. And this seems to show a theoretical possibility of manipulating light mid-air in the necessary way.
Screw you, Arch is great. It's not for everybody, but if you want to know how your system is set up, decide what's running on it, and don't mind researching and maintaining your software, it's lovely.
Sincerely, I use Arch BTW
I'd say it would be more clickbaity if you just removed the "TV", because it'd make you think of smartphones, and those would be much more concerning
Fair enough, and my bad, I though the original question was about live upgrading the kernel, but looking at the thread again, they were just asking about the system not breaking. Thanks for putting the effort into explaining!
Does that update the kernel in-place, or only fix up kernel modules to continue working after the update?
And I'm torn!
I kinda had the opposite experience, switching from gnome to plasma for the more experimental features it supports on Wayland.
So far, plasma needs like a literal minute after logging in before any app can open.
That came with other weird issues, like alt-tabbing with a Fullscreen game being very finicky, sometimes refusing to alt-tab, and sometimes the taskbar breaks and stays frozen for most of the time, only unfreezing for a few seconds every minute or so.
I would sum up my experience as GNOME being more polished, working more consistently, while Plasma is perhaps better designed, more full-featured, including cases where GNOME is waiting on something to be implemented/standardized.
Don't they, like, network wirelessly with each other to reach your home network? That's a potential vulnerability at first, and when closed-source, a potential wireless backdoor into your home network.
