I will not be happy until cats can look at us wherever and whenever they want to.

I’d love to see the “training data” for this model, but I can already predict it will be 99.999% footage of minorities labelled ‘criminal’.

And cops going “Aha! Even AI thinks minorities are committing all the crime”!

I first beheld the glory of the cube in 2009. It was transcendental. I almost felt my soul leaving my body and ascending to a higher plane of consciousness, where few have treaded and those that truly grasp its majesty, yet fewer still. I was swept up in the spiritual, yet fleeting, ephemeral, and mercurial experience that was like no other. We were no more than ants trying to understand Einstein’s Relativity, or dung beetles oblivious to the sonorous rapture of Mozart.

I flipped the cube for a couple more times to show it to my unimpressed wife, and promptly never booted into Ubuntu since.

I have not consciously clicked on any CNET content since the early 2000s. In my mind their content are mostly puff pieces without much substance. Are they even still relevant?

My system was configured perfectly one day, then I started vi and now I can’t exit. Send help.

I keep revisiting Vivaldi once every few months, and get reminded of why I uninstall it within minutes. They remove the option of changing DNS servers from the configuration UI and moved it into flags. I have absolutely no idea why they do that, and its a philosophy I vehemently disagree with.

There’s the (very) real issue of infant mortality.

At this stage I suspect its just 3 kids in a trenchcoat.

I hate this aspect of Linux. I spent countless days trying to figure this shit out on Tumbleweed. Turns out you have to manually install codecs. https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Installing_codecs_from_Packman_repositories

You wouldn’t know this because it really isn’t hinted anywhere until you notice your CPU going into overdrive when you play a 4K video on YouTube.

I don’t know how to explain this to any regular m$ user that this is a thing they need to do because reasons.

Tumbleweed gang rise up!

Fake news!!1!!1!

Those are UDP packets.

Blasphemy. Hannah Montana is a god.

I have had some success in the past with Rustdesk, which works alright amongst all the other options I’ve tried. However, one word of caution is to temper your expectations on the performance side of things. Visually, it is nowhere near a native experience regardless of software or protocols I’ve tried.

It’s unfortunate that Parsec still doesn’t support hosting on Linux. It is the best implementation of Remote Desktops I’ve used so far, and I tried almost all of them.

It’s first-class in every metric, except it doesn’t host Linux (only as clients), sadly.

Great find! Thanks, this is new to me. I would have taken this out for a whirl immediately but I just read the docs and sadly it doesn’t support my 3000 series nvidia card. Team Green is seriously getting on my nerves for their anti consumer practices, enough for me to go all in into Team Red or Intel for my next GPU.

At this point, Intel (if you’re listening), the single most important feature you can implement to get an immediate buy from me, is SR-IOV on your Arc cards. I will probably buy a few of them for each of my PCs as well.

This generally works for people who only need command-line or headless access though. I’ve been waiting for proper GPU virtualization and partitioning to actually work on consumer gpus for so long now that I’m doubtful it will ever be a thing. And the hardware industry has gradually transitioned to single GPU setups now so PCIe lanes for multi-GPU setups are harder to come by, especially with recent motherboards dedicating more and more PCIe lanes to NVMe slots. Still, even GPU pass-through with VFIO is not a trivial thing at all to get up and running. Its a travesty that CPU virtualization is so mature and far along in the consumer space, juxtaposed with a seemingly absolute big fat zero on the GPU virtualization front.

You could get away with using VMWare for their proprietary GPU virtualization feature but besides simple sandboxes for testing, I will not personally get too far into it as the experience is not great.

You know what, you’re absolutely right. I’m pretty steeped into the whole linux thing, but it really isn’t going to win any prizes for usability. If I need shit to work, I’ll boot into my windows partition. When I’m up for some tinkering fun, my GRUB defaults to Tumbleweed. It is not for everyone, despite what some neckbeards or snobs would lead people to believe.

I am amongst you scholars and noblemen.

This really defeats the purpose of using linux distros imo. The whole point was freedom of customisation and truely make it my own.

If I wanted a lock stock barrel experience I would just stick with Windows or macOS.

Hello OP, warm welcome to the schizophrenic community that is linux! I’m running this exact same setup as you intend to.

Couple of points I’d add:

1. Nvidia and linux is a shit show. You either use the gimped mesa drivers (not so good), or the closed source drivers (even worse), especially on Wayland. If you still want to try it out, I suggest you stick with X11. I was using a 3080Ti and gave up trying to get it to work on Wayland+KDE Plasma v5 without screen glitches and bought a 7900XTX instead. AMD works out of the box without further configuration. I’ve had nothing but issues with Nvidia. For the GPU neckbeards that are going to achytually me, please don’t, I have no skin in this game as I have a bunch of cards from both.

2. I am not a pro nor expert in the foundations of linux, but I more or less know my way around its fundamentals (enough not to get into too much trouble), so I would actually suggest not getting into a rolling-releasing distro like Tunbleweed until you are super comfortable with a little hands-on and figuring shit out. Pop!_OS might be a better bet for your use case for now because it comes bundled with Nvidia drivers, but it uses a GNOME derivative (cosmic DE) so you don’t actually get the KDE experience.

Having said these, I absolutely adore Tumbleweed and KDE, I’ve been half daily-driving it but the gaming experience is not the absolute best (be prepared to experience weird glitches and crashes). If a flawless gaming experience is non-negotiable to you, stick with Windows. But if you’re ready to explore the quirky wonders of linux, the beauty of it all is the experience and the real reward is the friends you make along the way.

This is the umpteenth time I’ve come across this project but I just don’t get what they’re going for here.

These are just custom images, are they not?

If I wanted Ubuntu I’d use Ubuntu. If I wanted Fedora I’d use Fedora. Maybe I’m not getting it but I wonder how big of a population that’s out there that wants some Ubuntu mixed in with a touch of Fedora and some buzzword salad thrown into the mix.
