Notes
  1. In the actual printed polls, UMass was listed as Massachusetts
gollark: Apparently Nvidia is working on actually implementing GBM or whatever thing it was they needed for Wayland support but didn't have.
gollark: I modified my LXDE configuration file to call a program in the repos called `light`, which I made a suid thing.
gollark: I have no idea why but I never encountered any backlight issues, using the normal Intel iGPU backlight stuff works perfectly.
gollark: I just bought a used laptop, which is both cheaper and does not technically support Nvidia.
gollark: Yes, it's Nvidia's fault, but that doesn't make it work better.
