Get this powerful mini PC with Core Ultra 9, 32GB RAM, and 1TB SSD for just $799 by Taras Buria The ASUS NUC 14 Pro+ is a powerful mini PC with capable hardware, and right now, you can get it on Amazon with a big discount. At just $799, this computer offers a Core Ultra 9 processor, 32GB of memory, and a 1TB SSD. The NUC 14 Pro+ features a low-profile aluminum chassis, which can be opened without removing rubber feet or undoing any screws. Its toolless design lets you access the storage without a screwdriver. The computer also has a rich set of ports. On the front side, you will find two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, one USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C, and a power button. Unlike the Mac mini, which has a frustrating power button placement, the power button in the NUC 14 Pro+ is located where it should be. The back of the NUC 14 Pro+ has a DC-in port, two Thunderbolt 4 ports, one 2.5G Ethernet port, one USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A, one USB 2.0 Type-A, two HDMI 2.1, and a Kensington lock. Finally, there is a VESA mount, which lets you place the device on the back of your monitor for a cleaner desk. The computer is powered by Intel's 14th-gen Core Ultra 9 185H processor, 32GB of DDR5 memory, and a 1TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD. Windows 11 Home is preinstalled, so you do not need to bring your own drive, memory, or Windows 11 license.

This guy is just salty that Waymo is about to get buried by a company with cars that cost significantly less, charge significantly lower fares, and will soon dramatically outnumber their fleet. Waymo made the mistake of not reducing their vehicle cost quick enough and not overcoming their route limitations. Unless they start allowing their cars to use the freeways and have significantly wider geofencing, they're going to soon join the list of discontinued Google products. If Tesla wasn't the one to make them irrelevant, somebody else soon was. There's a long list of companies designing robotaxis right now. -

LOL. Hard to believe people still fall for this. If you are having some sort of issue, I would work on fixing that instead turning off these settings. -

That is a great option for compatibility, but in my opinion, that isn't the future. Xorg/Xserver is outdated with massive security holes and limitations built into the core design, which cannot be easily fixed. The reason Wayland exists is because it was apparent that no one had the resources/will to revamp Xorg, so it was basically put into a support only mode until it was eventually abandoned. Yes, X11Libre has taken up the mantal, but I don't expect to see anything from them other than basic support. -

I agree with your frustrations, but after nearly a decade of Wayland ideologs debating how software they don't write should work...its time to rip the band aid of X11 off and let Wayland sink or swim on its own. Its not like Linux can just fail at this point, so devs will flock together to find solutions. It is my opinion that a lot of these silly debates about things like window decorations take place because they can. People feel like they have time to have these academic conversations to "get it right." However, the conversation will change very quickly when the issue is "###### don't work." People will quickly find fixes once we are forced into that mode. I draw a parallel to the infancy of the internet going public in the late 1980s. It became quickly apparent that IPv4 really wasn't up to the task. The ivory tower response to the issues was basically "your doing it wrong, you shouldn't want that" while debating long-off solutions like IPv6. Then some rando cames along and invited NAT, the standards people saw it as an abomination and absolutely refused to include it. He didn't care, sold the product anyway under the name PIX, which he later sold to Cisco. It was not only a massive success, but it changed the entire concept of the internet, basically inventing the idea of public and privet addresses, which totally reformed the way the internet works. The standards guys were forced to adopt it once they realized it was impossible to put the cat back in the bag.
