US designates PFAS chemicals as Superfund hazardous substances
  • All of the sudden? Have to say I wasn't expecting this but I'm glad it's happening.
    It'll matter more what they do about it rather than what they say. Will they forbid the use of these chemicals in common products like waterproof clothing for example?
    Regarding any corporation being made to pay - lol, I strongly believe that will never ever happen.
    But I hope this will also motivate the EU to take action.

  • China will use AI to disrupt elections in the US, South Korea and India, Microsoft warns
  • I can see that making sense for Taiwan, but how could they use it in the US?

    Most people would be afraid of pro Trump propaganda, right? But Trump is even more anti China than Biden is, so that doesn't even make sense.

  • Wayland window in X11

    Hello folks! I’ve been having this issue seen in the screenshot. I get this Wayland window and krunner and other things run in there. After a time I even get the login screen inside the wayland window. If I close it I lose krunner, alt-tab, and other keyboard shortcuts.

    Not sure how this is happening or how to make it go away. I did try Wayland at one point but it wasn’t quite working out for me and since I reverted back to X11 I get this issue.

    If anyone’s wondering, my main issue with Wayland was that it wasn’t setting the DISPLAY and WAYLAND_DISPLAY environment variables for some reason, and this would cause all kinds of software like Steam and Firefox to not even launch. I tried setting them manually but that didn’t go do well either.

    Edit: Thank you all! With your help I managed to find and fix it - it was my fault due to a systemd override launching a service after kwin_wayland. > [Unit] Requires=plasma-kwin_wayland.service After=plasma-kwin_wayland.service [Install] WantedBy=graphical-session.target

    That was the issue. Remved the override and everything works! I even tried Wayland again and now the display variables are defined correctly from the get go and everything works - although this has been on again off again so it might stop working at one point.
