  • From what I understand, xorg has fundamental security flaws. How will they remedy this?

    They won’t. Don’t download random shit and if you’re worried, run it in Flatpak

    What happens when the Linux kernel drops support for xorg? Do they intend to fork an older version of the kernel in order to keep support?

    Not really possible, since X11 is only built on top of the kernel’s graphical interface (same as Wayland). Even if that wasn’t the case, the kernel doesn’t delete any code that anybody uses (that’s why 30 year old programs still run)




  • Lots to unpack here

    But occasionally I find myself borderline stalking her

    Don’t do this you creep. Talk to her like a normal person or a friend (note - after you address the other points in this comment). I still talk with some of my exes, it’s chill. You’ll probably notice she’s changed and you don’t like her as much too.

    There’s no changing the past, and if I could, I don’t think I would’ve reached the point where I am in life with my current opportunities if we had stayed together.

    Good on you for staying strong with that. It’s why you broke up originally and you fulfilled that. Good job.

    I became a massive stoner

    Don’t do this. Despite so many people echoing the “pot isn’t bad for you narrative”, countless studies have directly showed it contributes to demotivation, and there’s plenty of correlations to things like increased anxiety and other mental illnesses

    In doing so she broke our promise of prioritizing our friendship over the relationship.

    Half this post suggests you’re a weirdo dude. First stop being weird. Then you can be friends.

    I understand a lot of the reasons why I’m hurt and some are justified some are not.

    You’re gonna learn that just because you’re hurt, doesn’t mean it can easily be made right. What could she possibly do to unhurt you? Apologize and come back into your life? No, she’s not gonna do that. Especially after everything you wrote before this. Focus on things you can improve and write off your losses (i.e being hurt) instead of letting them drag you down.

    tell me I’m an idiot or an asshole to my current partner or something.

    You will never have it all. People in stable relationships develop a crushes on other people, they miss your exes, and they see easy opportunities to jump ship onto someone else for a whole host of benefits (experiences, sex, money, whatever). Some people do, some people don’t. But you will always leave something on the table.

    If you’re an asshole to your current partner, you’re going to know that by the fact you’re not treating your current partner well. But it really sounds like a case of you need to fix yourself before worrying about others.

    Apologies if my comment came off as a little brutal, but I want to be clear and not simply comfort you on it. Fix yourself.
