ICE must spare no expense capturing this illegal alien and sending it to El Salvador!

XFce is using GTK3 currently and the change is in GTK5. Hopefully, as more users have the sad realization about Wayland, GTK5 will be end of the line for GTK.

GTK's decision isn't that surprising, they've been part of freedesktop for some time, so they've bought in on the plan to cram Wayland down people's throat with a stick if necessary, much like RedHat in general.

You do realize that defunding an already underfunded program is objectively worse than not increasing the funding, don't you?

You might be tempted to mail these company execs something to express your displeasure. Just remember this important phrase if police might question you:

"OOps, my bad, I must have mixed their address up with Cologuard when I was addressing my packages..."

BZZT. That's a dodge and I suspect you damned well know it. LIE LIE LIE. You did successfully repeat the big lie, I'll grant you that.

I am quite sure it was understood that the people complaining were referring to the simple act of forwarding the X server connection to the remote X server (display) either directly or through ssh. I was lied to directly after being quite specific that that was what I was talking about (that would be the calling out). It was even a shade worse than Clinton's "I didn't inhale" (because it was in brownies). Truly a mis-direction worthy of a politician. Also known as a lie.

I remember history quite well.

If it's within the magnetosphere, that's easy enough. But it wouldn't actually be reactionless.

As opposed to San Francisco where nobody takes anything stronger than an aspirin ever?

In the early days right here on /. and on wayland's project blogs.

The claim was that X11 doesn't support remote display. Then when the foolishness of that claim was loudly called out, it was "Well that isn't REALLY remote support". Then that was called out and the claim was "it'll be implemented any day now..."

That was enlarged that it would be through an external proxy. Then that external proxy would be 3rd party. Then it would be started any day now.

Lie after lie after lie. Not a good look for open software.

Wayland is much much worse. IPV6 actually can do anything IPV4 can do. Wayland is still lacking, it's just that the Wayland boosters will try their best to gaslight you into thinking X can't do those things either, even as you watch it do them.

I have to support Ubuntu for commercial reasons. I am relieved to note that Ubuntu is NOT Wayland only. It's just that the latest Gnome only supports Wayland. So all I have to do to keep X11 available is not use the desktop environment that I despise anyway.

Wayland and Gnome are now so far up their own backsides, they will disappear into a singularity any day now.

This could have been even funnier if, instead of French for "Viva la revolution", you used the Esperanto "Vivu la revolucio!".

Never invite a vampire into your home.

You mis-spelled "goons".

Agreed. There have been some discoveries that were genuine security issues. MANY that are only real issues in multi-user systems (and I mean logged in users, not someone fetching a web page). And too many that are clever tricks but only work if the 'target' cooperates fully with the "attack" (but mysteriously doesn't just sudo). Those remind me of the videos of Rube Goldberg machines that take a month to shoot and run for 3 minutes, assuming they don't just use clever editing to depict something that never actually happened at all.

Nobody. They're replacing them with universal chargers that have BOTH. And support credit-card readers, which the Tesla ones didn't. And upgrading them from the v3 400V 175kW Tesla chargers to Applegreen's 800V 350kW.

Tesla's contract ended. It was rebid. Tesla lost. Elon whines and throws a tantrum.
