  • The xitter lawyers claim that there was no bank account indicated anywhere so they “had to guess” and are demanding xitter to be unlock as they paid the fine.

    In other words, either they’re grossly incompetent and can’t read, or they’re playing malicious by trying to abuse some loophole or anything to ultimately not pay the fine

    EDIT: For some clarification, there is no information publicly available as to where the lawyers sent the money to, only that it wasn’t the account linked to this fine, and that the lawyers are demanding the service to be restored because they claim the fine was paid, but the correct account hasn’t received the money, so the fine is not paid. Alexandre de Moraes has asked Caixa Economica Federal (one of the government banks and the only one that deals with this kind of thing) to “fix” this issue so the attorney’s general office can analyse the process and decide on restoring xitter’s service. Elon Musk, X and the law firm representing them in Brazil are in absolutely no position to contest, much less demand, anything from the supreme court or the attorney’s general office. Their actions have shown time and time again that they have no intention to play fair and regularise the issues, and they’ll try what they can to create instability, animosity and general distrust against Brazil’s judicial system.

    The information regarding payment details for fines is ALWAYS clearly detailed on every notice, there is 0 chance that they forgot to include it or they’ve made a mistake and added a different account.

    The more I read into this the more it looks like the law firm is being malicious instead of stupid, they’re trying all that they can to not pay this fine (on behalf of X & Co.) and also create instability/animosity against the supreme court, specially considering what Musk has done and been doing for this whole case.









  • You either come up with something like frog-protocols to try and actually get things done, or you can wait for Wayland devs to endlessly bikeshed. Getting some amount of harmless fragmentation on an open source project seems much better than waiting 4 years (and counting) for them to start actually working on implementing HDR.







  • I’m running Wayland. I do feel that Plasma is using my iGPU to render the desktop since it’s quite noticeable some stutters and lower performance compared to disabling the iGPU and having both monitors on my dGPU, but unfortunately I can’t really chose what gets rendered by what. On Windows, this setup works fine, I can chose Firefox to use the “power saving” or whatever and it runs on my iGPU, videos get decoded by it.

    I tried plugging my monitors on my motherboard (I have a HDMI and DP outputs) and it works as expected, everything renders on the iGPU and I’d need prime-run for my games, though this is far from ideal since I lose VRR and HDR.
