Sure, it’s hard to craft a perfect solution. However the status quo for a long time was that applications were doing it themselves. And Wayland took it away without providing a replacement.

I had been led to believe that one of Wayland’s strength was solving the correct window coordinates save-and-restore problem. Does someone know what happened here?
It’s literally the opposite. Windows aren’t allowed to position themselves on Wayland (because it’s unsafe or something). Window state save restoration must implemented by the compositor itself. Not sure about GNOME, but KDE doesn’t have that.
It’s a feature-rich text editor with LSP support. I suppose you could use it as a simple IDE, though I haven’t tried it.
Nah, this is patented by Sony.
Google-certified Android TV devices aren’t known to receive security updates either.
Kaspersky is closely tied to Russian government. The dude himself (founder and CEO) has a government position as one of Putin’s advisors or something. Also he believes that anonymity should be purged from the internet, and every user should be personally indentified, enforced by the government. In the name of “security”, of course.
Exynos Samsung batteries. Tensor is based on Exynos, and S23 has only Qualcomm variant. That’s why Pixel 7 drains battery faster than S23.
I don’t care about gaming performance on a phone, but battery life in Pixel 7 have been worse than in competitors like Galaxy S23.
Russia already has national root TLS certificate that’s must installed on all devices (basically government-mandated MITM). The next step is to start severely throttling (and optionally blocking) TLS connections that don’t use it. Some popular foreign sites like Google can remain functional by replacing their certificate at ISP level (all ISPs are already controlled by the government).
iPhone 15 Pro owners are using it wrong
They are personalised by the “bucket” that data collection companies like Google or Facebook placed you into based on profiling. Browsing and search history is only one of the factors that is taken into account when you are profiled, there are myriad more ways to collect data about you.
And then what ads you see is determined by what advertisers think your “bucket” wants. If you are male in your 20s living in rural USA and advertisers think that males in their 20s living in rural USA are interested in guns, then that’s what you will see - even if you never clicked on gun ad or searched for guns on Google.
Manned lunar lander is a mich complex piece of technology which needs to be developed from scratch. It also needs a much more powerful rocket which Russia don’t have either. It’s at least a decade of extra R&D time even if they get all the funding they need and magically get rid of corruption (which obviously won’t happen).
It’s unmanned not because they chose it but because they are literally incapable of making a manned mission (at the very least for a couple of generations).
It’s just projection of the hate for techbros (especially celebrities like Musk). Everything that techbros love (crypto, ai, space, etc) is hated automatically.
I.e. they don’t really hate AI. You can’t hate something if you have zero understanding what that something is. It’s just an expression of hate for someone who promotes that something.
Most people won’t even notice this exists because they use Chrome without extensions (and you can’t even install extension in Android’s Chrome).
Not only standard itself, but also low quality implementations both in hardware and software. And while major OSes’ BT stacks continue to gradually improve over time they won’t help you if you Bluetooth hardware or device you are trying to connect to (again both hardware and software) are trash. It’s a curse of every open standard, no matter how good or bad it is by itself - there always will be shitty implementations. And if there are a lot of them (like in case of BT) then majority of them will be shitty.
That’s how they do it. They send their “proposal” and immediately implement it in Chrome (with work on that being started long before “proposal” is made public obviously). Then they start using it on their own websites (with compatibility for now) and start propaganda campaign to push webdevs to use it too (which they do of course). Then they start complaining that other browsers’ developers are slow to implement this new “standard” (at this stage they won’t call it a “proposal” anymore) and are “stifling development of the web” or being actively malicious because they are jealous of Chrome or something. Then compatibility mode on their websites is first subtly broken so that users once again will witness how Chrome is superior browser and then removed outright. Boom, we have a new web standard!
Now it looks like it’s hiding something.
Are they still trash in terms of performance (I know that all smart tvs have weak hardware but my experience with Sony was even worse than average)?
Not just license. You also need to link to it as a shared library and allow users to replace it with their own build of the library. Meaning you can’t use stuff like DRM and anticheats.
