Ah yes, editing tux is actually super woke. Got me.

Words are more than distracting sounds that come from a hole in your head.

heteronormative to a cringe extent

Seriously tux doesn’t need to have painted human nails and feminine hair here. It only serves to make it explicit that this isn’t gay, because that would be weird I guess? As opposed to a cuckhold joke with a cartoon penguin.

Cringe

She and yes I am.

The enclosure of the Commons largely carried out under absolutist monarchs.

LLMs are a naked attempt to enclose the vast intellectual and cultural commons online, not just FOSS. Clammy Sammy nakedly talks about a future “where you buy intelligence from us on a meter”, sites where people taught each other have been mined for knowledge and then destroyed, cultures of sharing destroyed, private blogs closed under a tide of bot hammering.

Where must you go for all this now? They are literally buying and destroying books. It’s madness.

I think if I had taken an icecream scoop to my forebrain I would have experienced more intellectual development than reading the contributions of the sloppers.

You all need to read about enclosure and learn to make arguments without analogy.

and digits are sticky, owner, group, all

I wasn’t sure, the gui is nicer in some ways but defs less direct and given that you said “terminal is more direct” I thought you were using the gui because you hadn’t made some simple helper scripts for searching the database quickly

I use bazzite on my BC250 console but bazzite’s package management is horrible lmao.

It’s good for something you install and never touch but not adequate for general purpose computing.

Pacman is an amazing package manager, dnf is probably better but inertia has me prefer pacman. The rest suck

pacman can list all packages and their description, then you just grep for key words

All linux distros are the same OS but with a different community managing packaging. So what software is available to be installed/ or updated automatically; how and how frequently things are update, e.g. bleeding edge or only stable versions, whether the kernel (the os) is continually updated or has discrete versions; the software and configuration shipped with the installation software and; what software is used to manage the system.

It’s not a very significant choice, and if you keep user and system stuff on different partitions you can change distributions at will.

I use arch and have for a very long time. I think arch is an excellent choice if and only if you are interested in maintaining and understanding a linux system. If you just want to click buttons and have it all work, and maybe put up with some stuff that’s configured not exactly how you would like then fedora is a rolling release distribution that has many packages available kept up to date.

You will have to spend a bit of time reading documentation, and learning basic self help like looking up how to use tools via the “man toolname” command.

You’ll probably manage most of your pirated games via a piece of software called lutris, and will want to use helpful tools like proton-up to install compatibility layers.

Repack installs are sometimes hard to run properly but everything else is really straight forward. Just take the time to understand how wine/proton works so you’re not copy pasting blindly and getting frustrated.

You can dual-boot although windows can be persnickety about sharing the boot partition. Guides are around, e.g. https://docs.bazzite.gg/General/Installation_Guide/dual_boot_setup_guide/

Linux installations are very light and don’t need much space (games do but you can read the windows partition from linux and just run a compatibility tool through steam if you have steam games)

Bazzite is a bad OS for general computing (advanced concepts required to move away from stock config) but good for “it just works” gaming. Fedora is a good general OS and for playing games although some software will need installing.

You need a compatibility layer to run windows games on linux. Wine is this for most people, proton is built on wine.

If it’s installed via steam it will use proton by default. If you install it elsewhere you will need to set it up yourself, however interfaces like lutris have install scripts for many non-steam pieces of software and you can always study one if you need to write your own/manually set up a wine root (pretend C drive with the game an appropriate compatibility stuff).

You can check the state of games running on wine/proton here: https://www.protondb.com/

100 thousand years ago you’d say human nature was to live in small bands and only assemble for seasonal hunts or cultural events. Anything else would be perpetual war.

10000 years ago you would be saying that it’s against human nature to be sedentary or do repetitive work so agriculture is ultimately only a hobby at best.

4000 years ago you’d say it’s human nature to live in city states ruled by tyrant warrior-kings and dedicate your life to cereal farming.

Maybe human nature isn’t some well characterised and stiff thing? humans have lived in more ways than you can dream of.

15 year old install, one issue with crashes because of a regression in nvidia drivers that was solved after a month, I just rolled back till then.

Idk wtf you imagine people doing.

there are no open source models. There are open weight models.

No models make available the way in which they were produced, aka the source.

You know someone is cool when they take the time to tell you that they’re blocking you.

I don’t even know what plex is but my god your comment smacks of brandbrained cope

First 2 articles are the same piece of malware. It’s not a common attack I don’t think people need to worry about being 100% safe from everything because if you’re installing game mods, or cheats, or browser addons, or anything from GitHub that’s a way more realistic vector

How many things have been able to jump through secure boot uefi? You don’t really need to be max security all the time. Like realistically most people are installing dozens of completely untrustworthy pieces of software.

Safe from 99% of low effort malware is fine for most people. Toxic max security doesn’t increase compliance

That is not what I said lol. Your reading comprehension is arse and your attitude is useless.
