It is like we are back at 2006 again (for fucking good)

>Wayland
no

Mark Shuttlecock will make ubuntu great again

>wayland
>gnome
>still has that amazon shit pinned by default
This is why I always go with spins of Ubuntu. Canonical is famous for making shit decisions

>window previews
even macOS doesn't have that

Is there a full on documentation on the design philosophy behind Gnome 3? It seems so fucking stupid.

dude just remove everything in the name of "simplicity" lmao

Just use the minimal iso it's already out for 17.10

The minimal iso is dated October 14. Do you think its OK?

That brown and orange looks so fucking bad. Holy shit.

It's probably nothing a simple apt-upgrade can't fix.

It's funny because they actually managed to make it look uglier than Ubuntu 16.04 running Unity. I'm so glad that I switched to Xubuntu before witnessing such a monstruosity

I'm really liking it senpai. Wayland seems much smoother than xorg, but has some graphical glitches when I open firefox and some other apps.

>I am an autist who is afraid of all change and prefer a bloated, buggy, display server with security holes you could drive a truck through.

>not using ubuntu with mate DE
All I get is new shit, without the retarded DEs like unity or gnome3

Why did they stop using Unity? I know they gave up on Ubuntu Mobile but how is that a reason to throw away years of work on your own DE

>MATE
A shitty version of GNOME. If you're going to use gtk3 at least use GNOME.

holy shit how cozy

GNOME looks like it was made for tablets or the retarded hospital guy from Idiocracy like windows 8

Hey man, can i get that wallpaper from you?

>showcases it in a VM
Confirmed unstable

...

it's not just autism user, wayland isn't mature yet.

it lacks some features many people use on a daily basis such as:
running Wayland applications on a separate machine than where the display server is;
xdotool for automation;
screenshootting and screencasting the way you want it it, not the way the compositor thinks it should be done;
window management the way you want it, not the way the compositor thinks it should be done;
password management ;
cross-application color-picking;
input methods with visual feedback;
full, dynamic, scriptable control on the resolution and relative position of the monitors;
full support for tablet and other absolute input devices, including customizable, scriptable dyamic mapping of device to output;
X2X (think Synergy);
subpixel-perfect rendering for applications (requires knowledge of exact DPI and subpixel structure for the output where the window is getting displayed);
screensharing;
full control over global fucking shortcuts man... shit is still a work in progress.

So anything new aside from Gnome bullshit and new kernel?

you can't even run a GUI program as root loljoke

>cross-application color-picking

I use that all the time for web design, that's a big shortcoming for me

Is there a good DE that has all of these features?

any DE still using Xorg, such as XFCE, LXDE, Mate (afaik), openbox, ***box, any tiling WM, etc..

I hope that video was made on Linux.

probably on macOS

It's based as fuck. The thing is "just werk"(tm).

p.s Wayland is godsend, no lag tearing, no shit.

>posted from my Ubuntu 17.10

kys, ok?

yeah, try to remotely take a screenshot of one part of the display using a global hotkey

does not compute

at least post an screenshot of you posting here, my lad

Why don't you just buy some rope my friend? End it.

here you go faggot.

that's great, except for the remote and global hotkey parts...

the fuck is that shit, mate
I want to see the desktop for shits and jiggles, boi

you dot want it, believe me. faggot.

you first post a grill, and now post some dudes

>2017
>watching MTV

live usb ubuntu 17.10
cant change to wayland, there is no cogwheel icon on the login screen
what do

Sean has absolutely zero ass. Why does he keep bottoming?

Just upgraded from 17.04 and it fucked up during installing packages, I'm left with a partially fucked install with no GUI. Thanks canonical

turn computer off, wait for 18.04

always wait a couple weeks after the first release so that massive bugs can be fixed.

upgrading 101

Yeah I know, I figured there's probably been pre-releases tested for months. Oh well, it was only a VM, at least I can push to git then nuke it.

haters gonna hate, losers gonna lose. faggots gonna suck male meat

Wayland more like gayland

>not an nvidia shill

Just switched to Windows 10. Something about this doesn't feel right.
