@mcc I don't suggest to people that they should stop using ubuntu, because that doesn't really help anyone in the big picture, but I do think that ubuntu should go away forever

@vurpo I suspect I would be happier if I had picked something other than Ubuntu when I installed, but I did not, and switching to something else is something I expect to happen in the future but will require particular convergences of schedules

@mcc I've given up on giving any kind of advice by now because I know it usually doesn't help and is usually annoying, so nowadays I just sort of watch and be sad whenever something is wrong on the computer somewhere

I mean I know these things wouldn't happen if the computer was originally designed for use with linux, and if canonical didn't keep on doing their BS, and a million other things, but instead we got a world that's on fire and where people are only used to windows's weird bugs

@vurpo The advice that would be most helpful to me at this point would be if someone could teach me to read the status information on Ubuntu Launchpad so I could friggin tell if the fix is shipped to 24.04 and which package version(s) it is in. ._.

@mcc @vurpo by my reading it’s not fixed, and *seems* Ubuntu-specific. In the screenshot I attached, the bottom row shows that it’s confirmed in 24.04 (Noble) and no one has picked it up yet to fix. The last few comments suggest some folks are looking into it though. (Apologies for brevity, on my phone…)
