    I’ve heard that’s a thing - people spend the morning in church being told that they’re better than everyone else and then they carry that attitude with them when they go out to eat after church. It takes them a few hours to sober up and remember how to human.

    When my phone’s barcode reader app sees a web link, it fetches the page’s title to display next to the actual link. So it is going to that web server and fetching resources by itself. Even though it isn’t actually rendering the page and running javascript, it might be exploitable.



  • Wayland has a bunch of features that are so new they aren’t in the stable distros yet.

    Nvidia went from declaring they were never going to support Wayland to trying to force their own EGLStreams stuff on everybody to reluctantly accepting the standard that was developed without them and trying to make it work for their driver. They’re playing catchup and it’s entirely their own fault for refusing to cooperate with anybody.

    They’re moving more towards open source drivers now, probably because the people buying billions of dollars worth of GPUs to use on Linux servers for AI training have had words with Nvidia on the subject.


  • Pointing a desk fan into a computer works fine and is a useful troubleshooting step if you suspect something is overheating, but if you need to do it that probably means heatsinks are clogged with dust, aren’t sized appropriately or aren’t making good contact. So you really should fix that problem.
