Also, some of us are using Nvidia because we rely on software that doesn’t work on AMD. I really enjoy using Linux, but if it’s going to make my life difficult I’ll go back to using Windows with WSL.

I agree Nvidia should resolve the licensing issues, but man GPL zealots get a such a raging hard-on for anything Nvidia related it’s funny to watch.

Mainly I looked at it to see if it would be viable for our non-techie contract developers who are forced to license Docker Desktop because they’re on Windows.

Yes, $60/year/user isn’t that much, however the procurement process for some of these large contracting firms will make your balls shrivel up and fall off.

TikTok is and always has been hot garbage, so I can see why kids would enjoy it.

Email marketing is the only effective way to grow a business online these days

Sorry, but I call horse_shit_ on this. If the only way you can grow your business is to shovel your garbage into my personal inbox, then it’s spam, plain and simple.

If I have to give you my e-mail address to order something and you default “sign up for more of my bullshit” to checked, then fuck you.

I was on Ubuntu 22, and now I’m on Arch with a 3090. Daz3d+iray/dforce works, FFXIV works, Stable Diffusion works, X11 works, everything I throw at my card just works. Blaming Wayland not working on Nvidia is just ludicrous as Wayland is it’s own pile of half baked dogshit.

I don’t even understand how Wayland has diehard fans. Do they just exit out from their hyperland rice into an X11 session whenever they need to share their screen during a Teams meeting, or do they just say “if it doesn’t work on Wayland it sucks and I don’t use it”.

Nvidia doesn’t work out of the box on a lot (Debian for example)

But it DOES work. Debian/Arch/etc push the responsibility to the user to finish setting things up (kernel command lines, drivers, etc). How exactly is that an Nvidia problem and not just distros sticking it to their users resulting in user anger towards Nvidia?

Nothing “works out of the box” on an operating system without the OS installation process using auto-detection to guide the users through the additional steps required to setup WiFi, Bluetooth, etc. Yet for some reason when it comes to hardware GPU acceleration, the Linux distro response is just “fuck, Nvidia? figure it out yourself, I can’t be arsed to add the required config files and kernel command params”.

The front fell off.

It’s a danger pretty here in Night City.

The auto-detect seemed nice, but was missing some key features.

• unable to pass additional arguments to shells (that I could find)
• i.e. i need to start some of my terms in certain directories to take advantage of .direnv set environment variables
• also when I wanted to connect to my docker containers, or even remote hosts, i’d rather do it as a certain user than always connect as root
• didn’t enjoy using it in dwm, though I imagine any tiling window manager would have the same issues: way too many pop-ups

I have one as well. Did the firmware update a few months ago when it would periodically just start skipping or stop responding (I have my music collection on it). Haven’t had an issue since.

I don’t want to use another ISO due to space constraints on my USB.

What? A 32GB thumb drive is under $10…

Other than a new wave of death threats and science denial I’m sure.

Exactly, and they have been for years. How fucking entitled do people need to be to advocate for “free and open source” software and then turn around and removed and moan when a corporate entity decides to shift focus to something that doesn’t benefit them directly?

Settle down Nancy. There’s hundreds of linux distributions currently, some targeted towards desktop/gaming, and some targeted to the server and enterprise spaces. RedHat has always been the latter.

Let’s not get all Shakespearean dramatic about it, ok?

I use lunarvim quite a bit, however the application I work with has over 65k code files and sometimes telescope just doesn’t cut it. I also use a number of VSC plugins that I just cannot for the life of me get working in neovim, like the gauge.org LSP stuff.

Why would they mention Google at all? Google can’t sue anyone for Copyright Infringement when someone downloads a video off their site, because Google doesn’t own the copyrights of the videos.

I really wish I could, though the DM is dead set on using Zoom.

Remember when Trump said in order to win the war against ISIS you also need to “take out their families”?

The article doesn’t mention that YouTube/Google were involved at all. It was the record labels that filed the suit.
