I don’t think they have. I think they were made to labor under the whip or under a promise for something. You’re like that other guy thinking the guy cracking the whip or promoting the latest video game are “working”.
Working in a textile mill in 120 degree heat is work. It’s work no one wants to do. No one comes in and argues pedantically about “well I find sweating my ass off for minimum wage fulfilling”. That’s work.
Going into your temperature controlled office where you’re a CPA and get paid wonderfully and enjoy numbers isn’t the same thing at all.

God damn I’m tired of this spin shit where some dickhead writer at BIGBOXNEWS thinks because he bought a Tesla that we’re all him.

Hug your bros. Feel your feels. I’m a big burly man and I bear hug my friends because hugging is awesome. I also tell them how I feel and talk about how they feel. That’s the whole point of having relationships.
So ever since an update around a month ago KDE has been running at around 1-2 fps under wayland. I don’t really have a valid explaination I’ve checked modeset and that comes back as exepcted.
