It's amazing so many people are able to use English as a second language.

    Surely the only languages that are not weird are those specifically designed to be widely spoken?

    And no-one wants to speak those!

    "Who goes there", John Campbell, 1938.

  • How do you say SUSE?

    It's German, and you're about as right as anyone trying to say a German word in English can expect to get.

  • Cannot run Wayland on nVidia at all

    Some of the flickering can be gotten rid of by disabling hardware-acceleration for qtwebengine.

    I've got
    `export QTWEBENGINE_DISABLE_GPU_THREAD=1

    export QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--disable-gpu-compositing --num-raster-threads=1 --enable-viewport --main-frame-resizes-are-orientation-changes --disable-composited-antialiasing"`
    in .bashrc.

    Note that there is still enough flickering left to annoy, and some (appimage?) apps dont seem to register the setting.

    I think what's happening in the US today rhymes hard on the fall of the Roman Republic.

    And I'm sorry, but I don't think the people won back then.

    Det er også en hel del ting der ville gå nemmere hvis andre stater brugte samme software.

    Det giver mening at forsøge at gøre tingene globalt brugbare.

    You make larger districts that elect more than one representative each.

    So There's This System where you can specify which language you're writing in, and I always write in English. So why, oh God why, does it keep insisting on changing it to Danish? I mean, Kbin please, could you ask me? Or just bloody remember what I *always* set it to (when I accidentially remember to set it)? [\#AskKbin](https://kbin.social/tag/AskKbin)

    Instances-instances?

    So, I've just set up my own peertube instance over at tube.puggaard-nyborg.dk, and that was surprising simple. Or I should say that the instructions were surprisingly clear and correct, more so than what I've seen from other comparable open-source system. Anyway, easy-peasy. And now I want to follow some other instances, so I go looking at [PeerTube instances](https://instances.joinpeertube.org/instances). And ye Gods are there a lot of ... people who don't agree with me politically. Do any of you people out there know of a listing of instances-instances? I'd settle for an instances-instance that leans anarchist, if you of any such beast?
