We need to sanction these fuckers. If you own a business, stop doing business with them. Don’t conduct any kind of transaction with them. Refuse service, tell them to leave your establishment, etc. Stop dating these losers, hanging out with them, etc. If you have one as your neighbor, give them the cold shoulder. These people live among us. Find out who they are and isolate them as much as possible. Don’t invite their kids to birthday parties, kick their kids out of sports leagues, etc. Be calm, polite and firm.

It’s generally easier because the drivers are built in. Nvidia is perfectly usable, but it’s more susceptible to breaking during kernel updates. It’s not as bad as everyone makes it sound though. That said, AMD is usually the way to go on Linux unless your use case requires Nvidia.

FYI this is the nouveau driver no one uses. There is absolutely no reason to use an nvidia card and this driver.

Claude says it’s a cherry laurel. The berries are toxic.

I thought we moved past that complaint 20 years ago. It’s not as if you won’t indent your code anyway.

They are required to.

It wouldn’t be a tragedy and it wouldn’t be terrible. I am confident it will be a worldwide holiday.

The internet has been broken for at least a couple decades. The Fediverse is about the closest thing to the old internet.

There hasn't been a better time before now and I think it will keep getting better. Linux used to be about making a lot of compromises. Now, it's legitimately good on the desktop, although it's admittedly still geared towards power users and developers.

I switched to a Mac right around when OS X was first released. Software was sometimes a little bit of an issue with things being Windows-only, but you could generally find something comparable on the Mac. During the next few years, it became increasingly common for developers to offer a Mac version alongside the Windows version and it changed everything. All of a sudden, Mac wasn't a platform where you were going to run into a bunch of compatibility issues and people started adopting it.

That's what Linux feels like these days. It's finally reached the point of having enough market share that you don't feel like a second class citizen using it. It is THE premier platform for developers and power users in the same way Mac became popular with developers 20-25 years ago. It's the target platform for many developers considering it powers virtually the entire internet and a billion mobile devices. Also, what Valve did with Proton can't be overstated. Their work on Proton and the Steam Deck is really a watershed moment for Linux. I think we are on the verge of seeing some decent Linux growth on the desktop.

They ban you for all kinds of nonsense. I had a couple turned over on appeal. My latest ban was for 7 days for threatening violence because I said I hoped those guys who got caught fomenting unrest in Greenland were charged with something serious made an example. The comment was on topic, within the confines of the justice system and made no threat against anyone. Reddit has some really weird moderation. I just deleted the account. Fediverse is better for actual engagement anyway.

I would love for him to find NixOS and then create a better version.
