Idk, I read it just fine....

Maybe I have dyslexia 🤔

I lost my 4G drive, it's in a better place now. It's been serving me since 2003 even when it lost its case to fit in a USB port on the Xbox 360.

Maybe the new owner of the house I moved out of will find it and the outdated copy of Arch Linux on it.

I'll just wait for the official version to finish porting to Wayland. Nothing against the three guys working on this version. I'm sure they're good people.

Yeah, thankfully I've got a turing card (2000 +)which is said to be the cutoff for the open source drivers.

Yeah, games are the big reason I jumped ship and I'm pretty excited about the ongoing work porting Wine to Wayland. I'm also too broke to upgrade from my Nvidia card so the efforts improving Nvidia on Wayland are greatly appreciated.

Gotta save up for an education somehow.😄

Let me know when wine finally gets ported to Wayland!

Hyprland works fine on Nvidia, I've been using it for about a year now. It's only going to improve now that Nvidia hired people from the Nouveau team to work on Nouveau and Nvidia is making the open drivers the default in version 560. Can't wait for the 555 drivers they've been working on with the Wayland team and most of the major desktops to implement explicit sync etc.

An option would be to only install the CUDA toolkit without the drivers but distros like Ubuntu just don't support it. You could also switch display managers to sddm because Hyperland recommends it, might work better. Hyprland prints information in the tty if you launch it with Hyprland. I'm just thinking it's gdm being weird tbh.

Damn I was getting excited about a kernel built in scratch.

You don't need god, pacman is our god!

Porting Linux to holyC

Honestly the reason I own and use an old iPad, it was practically the only tablet that could do what I wanted. I used a Mac mini for the better part of five years before I switched to Windows and finally Linux! (It's ok if Linux isn't for you)

I get the appeal, their hardware is very nice and I still wish other manufacturers matched the tolerances Apple sets for their hardware. I just can't buy from a company behaving like that. Also good man using your hardware for as long as reasonably possible! 😁 We only have one earth after all.

Don't mind people blaming you for choosing a brand. Their ire is misplaced, it's the company's fault as much as it's the consumers fault and the consumers should focus their energy in convincing companies to change their ways or loose their loyalty. This petty meaningless victim blaming helps no one.

It would help if you voted with your wallet from now on though.

It's a suppository.

For automations and small apps it's fast enough. It's a fair traidoff for the fast turnaround time.

I'm thinking of learning go or c though because i don't care much for the runtime errors. It's no fun using an application for a while just for a typo in a rarely used function to tank the entire app.

Transcoding an HDR blueray to h265 filled it up pretty quick and I'm about to start dabbling with game development/3d modeling.

I've also filled it up pretty quick learning how fast various data structures are in which situations. You don't really see a difference in speed until you get into the billions of items at least for python.

This is just Linux for anyone who uses it for work or school.😂

Feature creep? It's so easy when you convince yourself you'll reuse it!

Well I had this one time I had issues with commands being sent to the shell. Super - arrow keys changed ttys instead of desktops and in the middle of updates I hit Ctrl c to kill a terminal app and it killed gnome desktop which killed the update process which bricked my system. Also XWayland apps are just buggy in ways I've never seen anywhere else.

It was real frustrating to set up with those bugs. My mother uses gnome but I refuse to install extensions because they break literally every single version of gnome. I probably should have put kde on her desktop tbh.

I'd say all they had to do is remove mandatory Microsoft accounts but the road windows is going down just makes me think it was just a matter of time.
