That's why I used to use arch btw

Literally just furries taking over

This is one of my favorite meme genres. An old phone somewhere has an image of Bill Nye behind a chemistry set with the description of full metal alchemist.

Also bargain bin DVDs with a sticker over part of the title that makes it hilarious

The real paradox is this opinion coming from Twitter

New canon for black hole formation just dropped. Get the researchers on this stat!

Apparently doing this will literally help

Ay girl, get me outta these backrooms

I swear one of my cats can smell these fuckers.

Or they're just noisy on some level, and I don't wanna think about that.

Say psych, right now

Geico ain't got shit on that

This is a great move! Facilitating a direct conversation between corporation and customer is great for all!

The feature could launch with the Pixel 9 and expand to older phones — just don't hold your breath for Pixel Fold support

Trying to force the graphene crowd to the near $2000 option, eh Goog?

Hopefully software will take care of it.

Or Jabbage?

Another for Mull and Cromite, here. I don't really use Mull unless I'm looking for absolute compatibility with things like web games.

I went from Arch to NixOS and I've been loving it. I also had all the time on the world to dive in with several machines to fall back to.

There are a lot of layers to wade through especially when you need a specific tool like your UE5 case. As others are saying, there are ways to make everything work, nix or non-nix, it's just more to work through after getting the bases covered.

Anecdotally, I had little trouble getting set up on my MSI laptop with an RTX2070, Primus and all. That was after learning the ropes on a Ryzen IdeaPad.

Rambling aside, I would definitely make sure to start in a non-mission-critical way, but do jump right in if you're comfortable. Maybe if you can stomach the Asus a bit longer, or get the Framework set up and play around with the Asus. And ask plenty of questions! I know I'm not alone in jumping in on nix questions any way I can :)

Isn't this the/almost the last one, or was that a fever dream I had?

Dumbo was my spirit animal at 5 years old, this is so fucked

To me that sounds an awful lot like TikTok being closer to good old American media than some Chinese psyop.

I'm not sure if you mean gearing yourself up for learning or inspiring others to learn, but my answer might be the same for both.

Analogies. They're primarily how I learn and understand things, as well as how I try to convey things to others. Being able to connect some dots to what you already know, even if they're vastly different ideas, really helps (me) solidify new information and find a driving force to uncover more.

It could just be my wiring, but I think a lot of how we understand the world is in the terms of our previous understanding. There's a real possibility of misguided bias though, like knowing all about hammers so everything reminds you of nails.

I was simulation-pilled in college, so that adds up.
