Output of `vscodium --verbose`

Since upgrading to VSCodium 1.98.2.25072, I have begun experiencing consistent crashes shortly after opening the program with the following message:
```
The window terminated unexpectedly (reason: 'crashed', code: '5')
``


The crashes don't happen instantly, probably taking about 30 seconds to a minute before suddenly closing with an error message, even if the program was simply left to idle after being opened with no user interaction.

Upon downgrading to 1.97.2.25045, the crashing issue disappeared.

This issue doesn't seem to occur on my desktop, which also has the same version of VSCodium installed.

I have attached the output of `vscodium --verbose` and `emerge --info vscodium`

To clarify, I meant that my desktop has 1.98.2.25072 installed, the problematic version of VSCodium.

Hey,

This sounds like an upstream issue. I'm not going to close this as upstream just yet though 

Please try vscode of the same version and see if the issue persists, so you know what upstream project is actually affected by the change.

Is the crash happening on a Wayland session? Can you also try with the Wayland flag disabled and see if the crash persists.

Disabling the Wayland flag and attempting to use VSCodium has the same result.

The latest VSCode release also has the same crash.
