That doesn’t mean it’s good they’re deprecating cards to do it. They were still selling GT1030s new until relatively recently, and the GTX1080 is a perfectly workable card.

If you think open versions are cool, how about them just open-sourcing the Maxwell & Pascal drivers? Oh, that’s right, they won’t because the “special sauce” is in the driver, not the card BIOS like it is for the Turing & up families.

What’s TDE?

Is this a reference to the most recent pewdiepie video? lmao

This isn’t how you get non-tech gamers to* switch to Linux and honestly, this attitude needs to die. Do you want Windows to always dominate? Because this is how you get Windows to always dominate.

New users find the terminal very intimidating, I’ve seen that come up time and again. It’s kind of the whole point of Bazzite.

If you’re already learning terminal to install software though, at that point you can use a distrobox, install whatever you want in it, and then export the application to your usual application menu. It’ll launch the container in the background when you start the application, and shut it down automatically too. It’s a little slower than a usual launch but it’s still just a stripped down container so it’s fine.

Or, hear me out, you could install Bazzite and avoid all those terminal steps that are intimidating for new, non-tech savvy linux users.

I think you’re seeing the wrong causation when it comes to enshittification. FOSS licenses prevent that sort of thing from happening. Linux is already, by far and away, the most popular server OS so consumers moving to it isn’t going to make it worse.

I dunno, maybe be less of a hipster bestie?

I do have a seperate card for recurring payments that is easily cancellable.

No. I’m not American, the rewards suck here, I’m never getting a credit card. My bank doesn’t even offer them :)

Unless someone anti-piracy is combing through your statements, why would anything come of it? I use my debit mastercard for nzbgeek and vipernews and have never had an issue.

Oh absolutely, it really upsets me that they never dropped the prices down after covid supply issues were resolved. They were really proud of being accessible price-wise once upon a time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The power constraints are more important to most than the size constraints honestly.

OBDII exists and is reasonably open.

Did you ever stop to wonder why most people say that?

What do you mean? That selling porn online isn’t sex work?

Your monitor always needs to be plugged into the graphics card. If you plug it in via the motherboard, then your GPU is doing nothing, as it can’t backfeed to that motherboard connector. CPUs often have their own graphics built-in, and that’s what yours would have been using instead.

It is when you use a private tracker and disable DHT, Local Peer Discovery and Peer Exchange.

Yeah it’s a little strange. Swift is Apple’s own programming language, and there was an older Jellyfin app on iOS that didn’t use it and so wasn’t fully “native” in a similar way to how most social media apps are just a web browser.

There is a native Apple TV app, I didn’t migrate from plex until there was and I migrated over 18 months ago. It’s called Swiftfin.
