The issue in that whole proposition lies within this one single sentence

Business software is written for windows

Nowadays, practically all companies are moving towards either SaaS, or in house web services. The pandemic has killed native enterprise apps, for better or for worse.

Windows only has decent presence because it's reasonably easy to integrated Windows machines into corporate structures. The moment Apple taps into that market, it's all over. We've seen that with Google basically ruining the school market for Microsoft by doing that, and it will happen again.

Funnily enough, Flipper did exactly that and the Zero is still doing fine. It's a loophole, but it does seem to be working fine-ish.

HDMI Forum have instead resorted to taking GPU manufacturers hostage because they don't want any specs leaking, that's why AMD were denied being allowed to support latest HDMI in their free Linux drivers.

in theory it should be somewhat more responsive because there's no sandboxing or containerization going on, nix operates with tools that are much more straightforward

this is all well and good when we're talking about a properly elastic market (eg food)

however, the supply of hosted enterprise video conference software is extremely limited (teams, zoom, google meet) and the demand is extremely high

random israelis have as much of a right to live there as palestinians do (and vice versa), it's not written on the land that jewish/arabic/literally whatever else people should be banned from ever living there

the issue is that the israeli government seems to disagree, especially the genocidal maniacs from likud, especially netanyahu

am experiencing heavy tearing which wasn't there on Xorg

in which apps? anything that runs under xwayland is broken under nvidia at the moment because nvidia don't and can't implement implicit sync which is required for that, resulting in terrible graphical corruption. wait for a few months until explicit sync patches arrive

Works on My Machine™. sounds like a bug on plasma 6 to me, check their bugzilla and whatnot. or switch back to 5.27, it's not like you're morally obliged to do plasma 6 "stable release" beta testing lmao
