I like the Piefed software but im a bit concerned that there is basically only one big instance right now, on the dev server.

Great writeup! Thanks for doing this!

The inconsistent backround,

the cutoff text in the second panel,

that every panel is slightly different but featuring the same content(for example the “He” on helium is very slightly different in every panel, a regular artist would copy paste the text, not draw it every frame),

the font not being consistent(Look at the “E” in “HELIUM WALKS” and then the “E” in “WE DON’T”),

the absence of period symbols(Image Generation LLMs love to do this)

and the artstyle is very specific to other AI comics that are currently floating around the net.

AI comic 😞

The opposite, actually. The mlp fandom originated on 4chan I think.

here you go: Fimfiction Applejack x Raindow Dash

no NTSYNC still :(

Now that you mention it: I never realised that protondb only covers games on steam! maybe they should add a way to add nonsteam games.

quite a few of these links are just:

I installed windows game on the steam deck! Heres How I Managed This Herculean Task Using Arcane Magics: just runs the game with wine/proton

Yes, this new iteration of Junk Store will be paid software and will be closed source.

And then I stopped reading.

This is really amazing, I never thought that an exotic system so un-linux-like could ever get a proper gpu driver, nevermind run the newest hardware!

Same with guix.

Ah okay! No its not rootless, in fact it can only do fullscreen I think, thats why Im still searching for a better solution!

Its not just for games, you can remote any program(or the entire desktop) with it. Not sure why they advertise it like that.

As for rootless: As far as I know you need some elevated Privileges to be able to capture Wayland, but it does not need to run as root. Not 100% sure though.

Im searching for a solution too. You mentioned wprs, have you tried its predecessor xpra?

And theres always stuff like teamviever, rustdesk, and my personal favorite moonlight/sunshine, although all of these are for a slightly different usecase(full access to a remote desktop).

This is a false equivalence, most courts outside china rule in favor of the GPL, so it can be enforced. Notably china does not particularily care about international intellectual property rights, and that includes the GPL.

Rust has its uses, it certainly has its place in the world of languages. I think if you are making a new low level project, rust is a good pick.

The Rust4Linux project was always fundamentally going to create disagreements and strife. Lots of angry headbutting was to be expected. It happening in such a public way, with sizeable collateral damage, was not.

In my opinion the other dev involved stepping down was inevitable, I read their recent blog posts and it seems like more burnout and this being the final straw.

I find it of note that hes only stepping down from the DMA mapping and still maintains other parts, so its really just about rust.
