I think France is a bit of an exception because there's the CB network[1]. Most cards here are either CB/Mastercard or CB/Visa and a lot of stuff uses CB by default if I understand it correctly. According to their website the network accounts for 65% percent of national transactions[2] but I'm not sure of how to interpret their wording.
In my experience Punycode support in browsers varies greatly depending on the phishing[1] mitigations in place, making them quite unreliable in practice unfortunately.
I'm pleasantly surprised about SMTPUTF8 being a thing though. Yeah nobody uses it, but I thought email had zero UTF-8 support so it's at least better than nothing, I guess.
The hard thing with taste is that it's usually the sum of many quantitative traits, each one being governed by several genes which can be located on different chromosomes, as seen in tomato[1]. Transferring enough of them into the modern genome through backcross would probably require a crazy amount of generations... or a crazy amount of luck :)
For anyone wanting to learn more about this breeding technique, it's called backcrossing[1]. It's also used for agricultural crops, but requires many generations.
For creative applications, it's still missing support for colour management. Work is underway to implement it but it's a complex topic.
Edit: I still use Wayland whenever I can despite these limitations because it feels really nice in day-to-day use. Smooth scrolling and fluid touchpad gestures come to mind.
> Wayland has solved more problems for me than it caused, but I'm bummed our that I can't use my laptop's external screen because of nvidia shenanigans (had to mess with some udev rules to even het the option!).
I think that particular issue has been fixed in the latest release. Tried it the other day on my Fedora laptop running NVIDIA 515.57 and it worked surprisingly well.
Things are improving at a steady pace but Optimus laptops continue to be an irritating experience unfortunately. Breaking suspend every month or so is basically tradition at this point.
Of course! But when you're using an application with a fairly busy header bar (like Nautilus or Epiphany, which don't have any labels) it can be useful to just point at the first pixel you come across without having to aim for a blank interval between buttons.
Yeah, clicking and holding on a header bar button will still allow you to grab the window without firing any action. It's quite handy, especially with a touch pad.
Well, I'm a few days late but I'm going to leave this here if it can help someone else.
If Ubuntu works like Fedora in this regard, it probably switched from Wayland to Xorg when you installed the proprietary Nvidia driver. The Wayland session supports touchpad gestures natively, but the Xorg one doesn't. You can install something like libinput-gestures[1] to replicate the functionality, with the caveat that the gestures won't be triggered until you lift your fingers off the touchpad. (On Wayland the interface reacts to the gestures as you swipe.)
Ubuntu switching 'silently' to Xorg is actually working as intended because Nvidia's support for Wayland was somewhat experimental until very recently. It's getting better though, and it's now officially supported on Fedora 35.
