I think it’s more difficult when certain very old web interfaces using Java used to be so strict on the version. There would be warnings like “You need Java 1.4 build 232, not Java 1.5” etc. I don’t think the openjdk builds go back far enough for those (looks like Java 8 from a quick glance).

Until recently, I’ve had no real preference as mostly using RHEL clones at work. Now using Ubuntu…and snap has been causing issues.

33·4 months agoI think the issue there is the k-ID software asks you to do things like open your mouth, then close your mouth - so you’d need to find stock photos of the same person doing stuff like that. Which, now that I think about it, I imagine there will be an influx of selfies of people with closed and open mouths available on google images very soon.

- They used to disable Wayland and force X11 - that was a pain.
- They didn’t fully open source all components I think.
- There was some concerns about where it was being developed, I think it’s entirely Chinese devs.

31·5 months agoI’m curious how much of it they consumed though. I read recently the UK keeps on paying Wind farms (for example) to NOT supply the grid as they don’t need it at certain times, and it wasn’t going into batteries for later either. Just generated and…gone?
