I don’t understand what the problem here is. But why the option exists? If someone does not care, then why would someone have any say in such an option? You can’t enforce people to care.

Well Firefox recently integrated a full webpage translation, fully done local on your system. It works pretty well in my experience.

It’s actually surprising that this is not configurable already. At least in a GUI.

Then I tell you something that might either blow your mind or be useful in future (or just being fun fact):

On Linux there is the regular copy/paste clipboard, which you already know how it works. But then there is this primary clipboard called primary selection too, that is independent from normal clipboard. Text will be copied to primary selection when you select a text (in example in Firefox). Just by selection the text with the mouse is enough and it will not affect the normal clipboard. Then you can middle click the text from primary clipboard.

They only discuss to disable it by default, not removing the functionality.

The essence of the article:

The discussions, visible in Mozilla’s Phabricator revision D277804 and a linked GNOME gsettings-desktop-schemas merge request, focus on disabling the traditional primary selection paste by default.

Mozilla proposes changing the default behavior of the Firefox browser on Unix builds so that pressing the middle mouse button no longer pastes text by default.

The functionality will be there and can be enabled. The reasoning:

The author of the revision frames the current behavior as a source of confusion and accidental pastes, especially when users press the middle button without expecting the clipboard contents to be inserted into text fields.

Gamescope works on Wayland too nowadays.

I trust System76 more than I do trust GNOME.

Today I hacked my 2DS for the first time. This can be challenging to do, depending on how technical you are and how much experience you have in this field. The process is long and can be complicated, one has to be very careful and use commandline tools and so on. If you are unsure, ask a friend who knows this stuff to do this for you. Otherwise if you do something wrong, it could brick your system or you loose your data.

You could suggest it to the new fork. Maybe he implements it.

How is that a paradox? It’s like saying its a paradox that cameras on phone made it much easier to photograph and as a result, people make more photos. That isn’t a paradox, that is natural. Same for writing software.

No no, this time it is really for real!

Hopefully it will support Linux on launch. Splitgate 2 not functioning on Linux at launch killed the momentum and hype for me and I never tried it again. I really liked the first game and hated it that they took it away and what I read about Splitgate 2. It’s great they listened to the community and reworked the game in a meaningful way! (Unlike Concorde…)

Roblox is known to have child predators. But LGBT, oh no, that goes too far.

I do not agree. While it was not an official statement, he still works at Valve. So his opinion is connected to Valve. We should not ignore that. He is not ANY developer. The only thing is, I should have made that more clear in my initial reply, but I think its not really needed because we know the context he is a developer on his own private account. But I would not ignore that.

So we should ignore that he works at Valve?

It’s a Valve employee.

Yes, we should celebrate transparency. Even if every game includes Ai in development in some shape or form, its good to know what exactly was done. In some cases its even a little less harmless or even acceptable (like generating meaningless terrain) than in other cases.

It’s not seen often that Valve reacts to public comments.

If its called smart and uses Ai, then its advanced. We need Ai for renaming groups of tabs.
