Don't think my phone runs Nvidia... or Wayland 🤔

None of the numbers are centred.
- the yellow one is centered to the universe
- If you see the numbers out of center you have terminal cancer
  
  How long do I have doc?
- The 0 is pretty good

42069 niceeee
- Huh? It's 428679.

Im not falling for this, it's just a bunch of grey dots.

Don't think my phone runs Nvidia... or Wayland 🤔
Let me introduce you to running postmarketOS on Nvidia Tegra SoC. /s

Funny numbers you got there

i didn't even know Nvidia already had mobile chipsets
- tegra x1, used in the pixel c, switch, and nvidia shield tv
  
  The LG G12 used a Tegra but stopped getting updates very quickly.
- Nintendo switch
- There's the Nvidia Shield tablet and some old Google Nexus that runs on tegra. Also if you are one of the unlucky People that bought a Windows RT tablet expecting it to run any program at all, you might have a tegra. Also the Nintendo Switch has one.
  Fun fact: if I'm not mistaken, the Nexuses used nouveau.
  
  Also dont forget about intel x86 phones from that era. It was a versatile era of chips. There were the Texas Instrument ones as well.

If you don't see how unaligned the numbers are, you are drunk.
- I think it's normal for that kind of "test"
  
  Do you know why?

420 69

I use AMD >:)

squinting real hard at the yellow: "for... the... love of... God... my... anu" oh I know this quote.

Strangely topical for me. I wasted yesterday telling myself I was smart enough to make SwayWM on Wayland work well with my 1070. Should have trusted the warnings in the documentation; hubris cost me a weekend day!

Returning to this post cause I am running waydroid on nvidia wayland right now! to reach lemmy :) (amd igpu)
- I tried to get that working on X11 with Xwayland on an Intel 2nd gen i3 GPU... didn't work no matter what I did...
  
  it requires wayland

dont see any numbers
- I got some bad news homie

Theoretically many phones use a edited X11.
- Obviously that's not true... like, at all...
  Android phones use Surface Flinger, which is a compositor that has nothing to do with either Wayland or X11. But we could say it's kinda similar to Wayland in the fact that it's composited and uses something similar to GBM and GEMM for managing buffers.
  Android drivers don't even use the same "semantics" as Linux drivers (android uses explicit sync, while Linux is implicit, but they are working on supporting explicit sync because Nvidia and because it's better). It's only in the last few years that you can use Linux drivers in android, plus some synchronization stuff.
  
  Surface flinger code has some X11 code, I didn't say it ran X11, I said it just had some of it's base, GBM and GEMM have been only appeared in the new versions of Surface flinger.

Intel HD 4000 integrated graphics now you can laugh on me
- I have an nvidia card and don't game, that Intel might be the better option.
  
  Yep. If nothing else, your electricity bill is gonna drop.
- If your processor is a kid, they're in middle school now.

It’s true! I wonder how it knew!!

Damn:(

I do, yes.

I faintly see an 8
- I can see a woman holding an airplane made of cheese, full of passengers that are hungry and listening to a Belgian radio show about 3 veggieburgers that fight crime in the back alleyways of Rivendell. One of them is married to an oviraptor named Steve who just graduated from Bovine University with a 6.0 GPA majoring in Advanced Yelling, and with aspirations of one day becoming a comma.
  What the heck does that mean??
  
  It means go to bed, let the drugs wear off.

My old nvidia card runs like shit in wayland, plasma not even open
