They had an issue where the mainboard was destroying the new 7950X3D cpus and handled it terribly:

  • Made a fuss with the RMA process and refused to recognize the mistake
  • Brought out a new mainboard update which was supposed to fix the issue (it didnt) and updating voided your warranty
  • and some more things

Sucks. After the disaster that was my mainboard I decided its my last ASUS product.

Me too. It's still running but been empty for a long time now. Originally set it up in 2009 (Back then it was TS2). I was immensely disappointed in TS5. I thought it will be something more akin to selfhosted discord, but when they announced that the TS3 server will be compatible with the TS5 Client I already lost hope. Its just a reskin of the client with some weird online service integration. Haven't looked at it in a while but last I checked it wasn't even feature complete and you were not able to edit permissions with then new client. Mind boggling that its been in development for >5 Years now.

To add to this: Wayland is a bit different than X11. In X11 you had split responsibilities: Compositing, X Server and Window Manager. Wayland only refers to the protocol and compositors implement that protocol. So Hyprland is a compositor which implements the wayland protocol. The compositor has a lot more responsibilities in wayland since it needs to do everything itself which in X11 was split across different applications.

Here's a neat site for the wayland protocol: https://wayland.app/protocols/

For the IP issue: You can look into some service which automatically updates your domains DNS. It's been a while but back then one of those was DynDNS, not sure if they still exist, but others surely do.

Yea, the kbin thread currently only shows 4 comments. Wonder whether thats just what someone else commented (kbin having hiccups) or if I understood something wrong
