Please, someone tell comrade Stalin Xi that this is all just a terrible mistake!

I tried cosmic in VM and they have a long way to go. Whatever they release in 2024 will be just barely usable, nothing more. Think of stability of KDE 4.0 with 1% of its features. I'm not saying that they are doing a bad job, quite the opposite. But what they have right now is only nearing the bare minimum, and the road ahead is long.

Wayland is not a drop-in replacement tho. It's like if glibc developers declared it obsolete and presented a "replacement" that has a completely different API and has 1/100 of glibc functionality and a plugin interface. And then all the dozens of Linux distros have to write all the plugins from scratch to add back missing functionality and do it together in perfect cooperation so that they remain compatible with each other.

It didn't land upside down, it rolled over after touch down due to high lateral velocity after one of its engines malfunctioned (and the whole reason it managed to land softly at all is because onboard software was programmed to handle such cases and find a way to land it anyway).

Started reading Second Apocalypse by R. Scott Bakker recently. It's rough around the edges but shows promise. Although I really don't like how conflict of two major religions is a straight ripoff of Crusades (completed with "bad guys" being desert people who occupy the "holy land" of "good guys"). Screams lazy world building to me.
