They could've worded it better, and make it clearer in the first couple of sentences that this is intended for owners of FWs who already go to these events.

I had bigger issues with, say, Ubisoft and JGL getting artist to work for exposure on Beyond Good and Evil 2 back when that was a thing.

But I also 100% that it feels like asking for free labour, intended or not.

Looking forward to seeing Cosmic get a alpha/beta release, I love what they've shown and since I can never get used to tiling window managers, it looks like a very nice middle ground between DE/WM. And seeing their Virgo laptop, I doubt I'll get one since EU shipping is a nightmare (Though they're supposed to open an EU warehouse soon-ish), but more repairable laptops, esp. one using GPLv3 for every bit, is amazing. Looking forward to seeing more about the FW16, not linux per se, but still cool.

Plasma 6, ofc. Way, way in the future (Probably) is seeing more DEs make their way to Wayland, like XFCE/Cinnamon/Budgie

I still hate AI from an environmental and artistic point but I'm at least glad they didn't mention AI 'art'.

Fingers crossed they'll open that EU warehouse sooner rather then later. And they'll sell more then their keyboards from it (I've been looking forward to at least those with affordable shipping for ages)

You can't become autistic though. I was born with it, nothing made me autistic.

ZIrconium is a cool Bootc with Niri "distro" https://zirconium.gay/

From chat.pop-os.org, pushed due to holidays, likely released January 9th

You can turn off all the extentions etc and make it a default Gnome desktop, but the documentation could be a better, since it's all on the forums.

Oh, it's actually in the announcement post https://universal-blue.discourse.group/t/introduction-to-bluefin/41

I love that Cosmic isn't even alpha yet and already has a few third party apps.

I'm on a Intel i7-6700K with a RTX2060 and Wayland used to be unusable for me before the 555 drivers. Stuttery games, etc. 555 made it all usuable, tho I don't have a VRR monitor, so I can't tell if that makes a huge difference there.

On Bazzite:testing

I used this guide from Bazzite, so far no issues

I think Budgie plans to move from GTK to ELF.
