#FreeDesktop
straight up I'm thinking about freshening up my Leap Motion ML chops, I will dedicate stupid amounts of time to a headset that runs FreeDesktop Linux 🫡

Le FHS, aka Filesystem Hierachy Standard, est enfin adopté et intégré au projet FreeDesktop depuis hier. Pour rappel, le FHS est un ensemble d'exigences et de recommandations concernant l'emplacement des fichiers/répertoires pour les OS de type UNIX

I have learned that Luna has joined the Freedesktop Discord. People expressed feeling unsafe, but the admin shut down discussion immediately.

Luna has been sharing screenshots where an unknown FDo CoC team member discusses banning me with her, and states that they have "a plan" [to deal with me].

Ugh. "Don't bring up the topic even if you feel uncomfortable being in the community now but we don't want to look like we're picking a side even though we're definitely picking a side."

The Freedesktop leadership are, apparently, cretinous fucking cowards.

I do have upower, and it definitely seems like BAT0 is the one, but after following all the steps in this article, it still sits at 79%. It might be a BIOS thing then. I'll keep looking into it later. Thank you.

De toute façon à mon humble avis les devs gnome ont été bien pire que les freedesktop sur le refus de collaborer sur des standard et de casser les trucs qui fonctionnent.

Leurs issues sont un feuilleton.
IMHO ce sont eux les Gatekeeper plus que redhat ou même Wayland.

I know there's a lot of true lessons about OLPC and tech savior-ism.

Still I can't help but feel OLPC desktop is the only effort we have had to humanize computing, to let us peer a little under the engine, to let even kids work systems together. A lot of exquisite use of the #FreeDesktop that was.

Pues precisamente hoy han actualizado la gente de @heroiclauncher al tiempo de ejecución 24.08 de #freedesktop. Y, sí, descarto que fuera el error con el #dualsense de la anterior versión 23.08. Sigue sin ir la vibración háptica. Ya solo me queda probar lo del firmware. A saber que hace #steam […]

Ha salido una nueva versión de # Firefox y todavía sigue usando el tiempo de ejecución # freedesktop 24.08. Hasta que no le salga los huevos a @ mozilla de usar el 25.08 no puedo tener aceleración de vídeo.

The Freedesktop CoC team consistently disappoints. For the Vaxry stuff: blog.vaxry.net/articles/202...

I'm not saying that there's no mistake on Vaxry's side, but the FD CoC just escalated at every step, and everything Vaxry said was soley interpreted through the "American political discourse" lens
