True. But do we have to include the NVidia disclaimer in every post about Linux adoption?
we do if people keep claiming things like
If all you do is web browse and play games, you should be able to use Linux without the CLI just fine.
or
Then don’t use the terminal. You don’t need it.
or
Silly to get angry about, because you can use Linux just fine without it. But the terminal is a powerful tool.
or
With flatpak/snap you don’t need to use terminal anymore.
The truth is that on a basic default install, even for a software engineer who maintains linux servers daily that you are going to encounter problems on linux that are much harder to solve than problems on other systems. And people want to pretend that it isn’t the case, because “I’ve been using linux for x years and never encountered that” (look at the other response to my comment besides yours for an explicit example of this). People want to say that all you need to do is learn to copy and paste from the internet, but 1. that’s a terrible idea, and 2. it doesn’t work half the time! An example of this is audio drivers! If your audio drivers don’t work, you’re probably just fucked. It doesn’t matter how knowledgeable in the terminal, it matters if the support exists at all for your system. Which you will not know until you actually install linux and spend hours trying to fix it.
It’s like people here refuse to believe that linux has problems, even for experienced users, because they think that it should be the norm to spend hours trying to resolve a problem on your computer that just … doesn’t happen on other systems. The thing is that other systems do have problems. They’re just not the literal show stopping problems that linux has. I’m literally unable to use my system because of Nvidia support and audio drivers. But mac and windows have other problems. For example my mac really struggles with my monitor usb hub in the back with usb-c passthrough. While my windows freezes when it tries to switch to dark mode, and blue screens once a month. Those things are resolved in seconds or minutes. But I literally cannot use my linux partition. It’s unusable. I’m not going to spend 50 more hours (i’ve already spent 48) trying to fix the damn issues to make the system literally usable.
I understand Linux is better for a lot of reasons. I want to switch to it. But I’m sick of people pretending like the issue is the user. It’s not. At least not a majority of the time. Linux as a whole is incredibly difficult to use if anything goes wrong. Because it’s not little things that go wrong. It’s big things.
you most definitely do need to use it on Linux, especially if you have a Nvidia graphics card… Audio issues are also prevalent.
it’s not an analogy lol. it’s literally the same thing.
somebody below linked https://www.one-tab.com/ which I’d never heard of. it also might be what you want.
Orion browser has this. https://blog.kagi.com/orion-features
But also I think you can accomplish the same with Sidebery on Firefox.
It was always my impression that there are more people in the town than you actually are able to interact with. I think there’s evidence of this elsewhere, like wtf would the governor visit a town of twenty people every year. Clearly it’s cause it’s bigger than that. Also you’re not the only farmer.
we had to invent /s because subtle sarcasm isn’t obvious. This wasn’t subtle. It was blatant, incredibly clear sarcasm. Poes law is talking about you in this situation. And the jk didn’t matter. they told you in their first reply to you
Um, you’re taking my comment way too seriously. I replied to a cartoon picture. I literally just made up a silly explanation that would fit the photos. Please take a deep breath and go touch some grass.
And then you proceeded to double down even harder on believing it wasn’t sarcasm. I’m guessing you were just having a terrible day so shake it off and move on.
with Home Assistant it doesn’t matter if your device adds a Google Home connection, Alexa, Apple Home, etc. Exactly what ‘smart homes’ should be.
You’ve clearly not been on the internet long if you can’t recognize the most basic of sarcasm. It’s literally a foundation of the internet.
Agreed. I grew up near the border and moved to Colorado and everyone here was obsessed with it when I first moved here. I could not understand it. It was the blandest, worst, not Mexican at all, food and there’s so much actual good Mexican food here that’s cheaper. Doesn’t even make sense.
You clearly put forth your unsubstantiated theory
you need better reading skills. their comment was incredibly clearly a joke. You’re the only one here that thought it was serious.
Custom built crkbd. I think it cost me about $200, but I can’t honestly remember I’ve had it for so long. It would be cheaper if I “rebought” it now because I found out that I like printing my own case cause it just works better.
I told my wife about this thread and about how you said you pronounced it differently and she jokingly said “sen-CHWAR” in a funny voice. When I read your comment off to her she laughed incredibly hard. Her joke turned out to be spot on lol.
It would, but less than the density difference, since you’ve removed weight from the balloon thus gravity has less of a pull on the balloon. My wife (a PE in thermodynamics) was the one that verified that comment before I posted it, hence why I didn’t say it would increase lift by the difference in density.
You can pay to keep getting windows security updates and prolong the upgrade even further.
