I’m running popOS! With an geForce 3080 and so far it seems to be working. Ymmv

Yeah I’m thinking bout trying something new because Nvidia just put out new drives to fix a security issue but mint hasn’t seemed to update the driver manager.

That’s a fair point, linux has gotten a lot better with stuff ‘just working’ but when it doesn’t, it requires some research and tinkering.

I was figuring something out the other day and it dawned on me that the reason I’ve become so enamored with linux is that it’s a hit of nostalgia from getting things working in the 90s. (Also I’m a nerd and I think the way computers work is fascinating lol)

I recall reading or hearing something a number of years ago that basically said a human is only capable of really caring about a small number of people (single digits) and generally caring about a slightly larger number. Anyone outside of those circles is an NPC

Oh man i love Arx Fatalis, have you seen Monomyth? It’s basically a love letter to Arx

Without having tried that setting myself, I’m assuming that you have to keep moving the mouse to scroll, instead of just slightly moving the mouse once in a direction.

I’m at work so I can’t really watch a video about this…but I don’t think I’ve had a problem running any recent game at all. The only one that comes to mind was the beta for monster hunter wilds, and I think that was sort of it’s own thing because the game was a mess for windows users too.

Also the new Derail Valley update is awesome and they’re working with valve to make it work even better on the steam deck.

I started with mint cinnamon and then tried out bazzite and nobara but they both gave me issues so I’m back to mint because it really does “just work”

My server is running mint currently, but I’m going to switch to fedora at some point soon. Mostly because I have to deal with RHEL at work and I’d like to better familiarize myself with it.

I’ve only really messed with VMs running in linux and I know video acceleration can be an issue. Do VMs running on windows have an easier time of setting up GPU passthrough?

Not quite fired but close enough. I know a guy who had gotten his 100% disability from the military during his first enlistment (basically only worked for about 2 years and then medical said he was borked so he was going to collect a paycheck for the rest of his life)

Then he popped positive for smoking weed on a random drug test and lost it all. Now he’s being discharged on an ‘other than honorable’ which means he loses all his benefits.

Bazzite is immutable, it worked generally okay for me but I swapped back to mint because I had to use a smart card reader and getting it to work on an immutable was a royal pain

Aren’t those people also the first to be let go? They’re the most expensive and you can maximize short term profits by letting go to expensive employees and hiring on cheap ones.

I would wear the hell out of this shirt

I imagine this would work out to be something similar to redhat enterprise linux, but with the EU funding it’s development instead of the US

I’m curious how they came to the figure they used for car ownership, I’ve had 2 cars in my adult life and I paid them both off in ~6 years (I only got the second one because I got into an accident and totaled the first one a month after paying it off )

Am I an out of touch outlier here?

This game was so bonkers, they don’t make them like this anymore. Though, they didn’t really make them like that then either.

Regardless, I’m so happy they’ve resurrected it. I first became aware of them when High Fleet came out, and then Carrier Command 2. They definitely publish game with a style and I love it.

It helps to understand some of the deeper lore, but AW2 does a good job of letting you know the important bits so it’s not necessary to have played the first one.

Yeah…I was dual booting to test mint, then accidentally wiped my windows drive when I tried out bazzite and went ‘welp, guess this is my life now’ and haven’t gone back to windows lol

I guess way back when microsoft said than win10 would be the last version of windows, what the meant was it would be the last anyone wants to use.
