    Hey LKW fahrer hier, mach gerade meine 45 Minuten Pause (-;

    LKWs haben zwar tote Winkel Spiegel und ich muss sagen dass ich darin eigentlich bis jetzt immer alles sehen konnte (fahre erst seit ein paar Wochen), aber rechts habe ich 4 Spiegel, da geht schnell mal was unter oder man wird (leider) faul, so wie manche PKW Fahrer keinen Schulterblick machen. Habe bei meinen Einschulungsfahrten Fahrer gesehen, die garnicht erst in die Spiegel geschaut haben beim abbiegen. Der Warner in den LKWs meiner Firma piepst automatisch wenn er bei eingeschlagenem Lenkrad oder Blinker was erkennt, so ist man zumindest aufmerksam wenn doch mal etwas rechts neben dem Auto ist.

    Tote Winkel gibt es aber zumindest auf jeden fall direkt hinter dem LKW, da gibts auch keine Spiegel für. Wundert mich manchmal selbst wenn aus dem nichts ein Auto zum überholen ansetzt das ich hinter mir garnicht kommen sehen konnte.

    Sonst ist eigentlich alles gut durch Spiegel abgedeckt. Trotzdem bitte vorsicht rechts neben und direkt vorm LKW. Kein Fahrer fährt euch gerne an.















  • Well we’ve had binary packages for ages for big builds like firerox and default is still to use source packages.

    Still I’m really excited for this, having the whole, or big parts of the package tree, will speed up initial installations by a lot on weak arm systems for example. Now initial installation can be done quick and later you could still compile stuff yourself for the full gentoo experience.



  • Also I find their Zorin OS Pro offer a bit scummy. Now the themes do look nice, but few would spend 50$ for a few themes. So they advertise having 5000$ worth of professional creative alternatives bundled. In screenshots you’ll then see Kdenlive, Blender and Inkscape. I don’t know what to think about the fact they want 50$ for bundling a few themes and free software. If they had just kept the stupid 5000$ part out I would have been fine with it, professional support can be great for people switching over from windows, but this seems a bit scummy to me.


  • Wayland is a Display Server Protocol, meaning it is a specification of how a program wanting to display something like a window communicates with another program, the display server, which handles drawing to the screen.

    It matters because it vastly simplifies and modernizes display server infrastructure.

    X is huge, with many parts from the 80s and 90s that were simply not needed today, creating a fully compliant X Server with all extensions was pretty much impossible, which is the reason pretty much only X.org existed as a full implementation.

    Some benefits for users are no screen tearing, VRR and support for more complicated setups like having multiple monitors all with a different refresh rate, which was a pain in the ass on X but is no problem on wayland.

    X is going to die, especially with the fact that frredesktop and the two big DEs, GNOME and KDE are working on it. Some distros come with wayland by default already.
