But be careful, you can pretty easily break stuff by messing up fstab

This may be a stupid question but is your video cable plugged into the gpu or into the motherboard?

That would be extremely funny

In your case I would just start by copying a full setup someone else made and then customizing it, starting from scratch always takes a lot of effort. Reddit’s unixporn was great for that, the alternatives on lemmy are sadly still a little empty.

Someone needs to maintain them for them to keep working. Nobody else is willing to do that anymore, but you can still volunteer as a maintainer. If you don’t, it’s as much your fault as anyone elses.

Almost all programs use both 32bit and 64bit integers, sometimes even smaller ones, if possible. Being memory efficient is critical for performance, as L1 caches are still very small.

Garbage collection is a feature of programming languages, not an OS. Almost all native linux software is written in systems programming languages like C, Rust or C++, none of which have a garbage collector.

Swap is used the same way on both linux and windows, but kicking toolbar items out of ram is not actually a thing. It needs to be drawn to the screen every frame, so it (or a pixel buffer for the entire toolbar) will kick around in VRAM at the very least. A transfer from disk to VRAM can take hundreds of milliseconds, which would limit you to like 5 fps, no one retransfers images like that every frame.

Also your icon is 1.1Mbit not 1.1MB

I have a gentoo install that uses 50MB of ram for everything including its GUI. A webbrowser will still eat up gigabytes of ram, the OS has literally no say in this.

If you let it run through once, it should cache the compiled shaders so it will recompile only after the game or your gpu drivers are updated

What do you need RDP for? I did everything i ever needed to do remotely via SSH (I mean this as a genuine question, not that we shouldn’t have better RDP support)

Yeah I mean you can get 95% by just saying everyone is cis, that’s just not an schievement

That’s only how it feels, as you only notice it at all on people where it is “obvious”. And even then, people get it wrong, cis people have been harassed by transphobes often enough. Just be nice.

You can also use revanced to patch your own api key into Infinity and use that instead

I don’t think you can just add the linux percentages, lots of people are probably using several distros. But the 27% of ubuntu still give a much higher lower bound, and while developers are not a very representative subgroup, I’d also estimate the total use percentage a little higher than 3%.
