Cool desktops don’t change
My strategy is to keep the software for a desktop computer stable and of it&#x27;s era forever. If it gets so old that I&#x27;m having trouble compiling things because my glib and gcc are so old then I&#x27;ll build an entirely new desktop with up to date OS and software. Then set it up and use it till it can&#x27;t do new software again. This happens every 5 to 10 years. I never lose ability. I only gain it.<p>There are many things my 2010 era Core2Duo running Ubuntu 10.04 can do that my fancy new Ryzen desktop with Debian 11 can&#x27;t and won&#x27;t ever be able to do. Things I cannot give up because they&#x27;re too important for my daily life.<p>&gt;And when Wayland finally happens? Well. I guess I’ll have no choice but to stop using computers forever ¯\_(ツ)_&#x2F;<p>Wayland isn&#x27;t going to happen. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;dudemanguy.github.io&#x2F;blog&#x2F;posts&#x2F;2022-06-10-wayland-xorg&#x2F;wayland-xorg.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;dudemanguy.github.io&#x2F;blog&#x2F;posts&#x2F;2022-06-10-wayland-x...</a>
