True, I guess its just wireless devices such as Bluetooth (and I guess maybe NFC?) that communicate over sockets. Example AF_BLUETOOTH. For connected...

[uid313]

How do you communicate with these?

Is there any AF_I3C that you use with sockets?
Or it exposed as devices under /dev/ such as /dev/i3c1,...

Now if only Intel could get behind this too...

Then my 30 kb script is a 100 mb package. 😥...

[uid313]

Any script or software that I write will then not run on other people's computers....

I miss Python 3.7, unfortunately Ubuntu still uses Python 3.6. 😢
Also Nautilus is heavily outdated at version 3.26 due to the removal of desktop...

Yes, I am one of those idiots.
I consider C and C++ way too cumbersome and tricky to program in.
People like me should stay away from the...

Maybe Vulkan on Python or JavaScript is still faster than OpenGL on Python or Java?
Maybe coding against Vulkan is easier than coding against OpenGL?...

[uid313]

It is great that it is at least available for install, but then the Python code I write doesn't work for anyone but me when I distribute it....

Does Flatpak and Snap have any scope to limit usage of geolocation services?
I don't want all applications to have access to geolocation, only GNOME...

Because I've tried it, and I am not as productive in it as other languages.
It didn't feel as easy and modern.

Linus Torvalds don't...

I am a web developer.
But not only a web developer, also a developer.
So then I read the release announcements for every new version of things...

[uid313]

Do you have to use some tricky language like C or C++ to code in Vulkan?

Or can you use something easier like C#, JavaScript, Python?

[uid313]

Too bad Python is at 3.6, not 3.7.
Also Git is at 2.17, not 2.19. However Git 2.19 seems to be available in the cosmic-proposed repository....

[uid313]

Hmm, good point.
Maybe it could be have a scope that includes /usr/share/doc.
Or maybe it shouldn't be file system scoped. Maybe that wasn't...

[uid313]

Good point.
Yes, I did forget about that....

I would like to see Evince packaged as a sandboxed Flatpak application with read-only (no write) access. File access only, no network access.
Maybe...

[uid313]

How open is it?
Is anything on it not open?

It would be cool with a RISC-V based IoT SoC.

It's a shame Intel and Nvidia doesn't support FreeSync / Adaptive-Sync / VRR.

[uid313]

It doesn't support SQL/JSON, only Oracle Database support that standard.
However it does support JSON through its own non-standard implementation....
