I've been debugging OrcaSlicer for the entire weekend. For some reason I was only able to use it for 3 times before it breaks (can't bring up the file chooser dialog after 3 launches), and I had to delete all its data every 3 uses.
Guess what? The reason why it breaks is because for whatever reason the GTK3 file chooser dialog it uses has some broken auto-sizing under xwayland-satellite, and it doubles its size every use. So it starts as a reasonable size and becomes bigger and bigger, until at some point the Wayland server refuses to allocate a surface for it because the buffer would be ridiculously huge.<\/p>","generator":{"id":"tag:gnusocial.jp,2026-08-16:notice-source:ActivityPub","objectType":"application","status_net":{"source_code":"ActivityPub"}},"id":"https:\/\/comfy.social\/notes\/agjxto4jf1","object":{"id":"https:\/\/comfy.social\/notes\/agjxto4jf1","objectType":"note","content":"
