taanegl,

Well, fuck. They just made Ubuntu the most relevant distro. Not like it wasn’t before, but now they knocked it up a notch - BAM!

This is it. It’s for your late sipping Starbucks developer, who needs buttons to click… those luscious, UX’y buttons… I WANNA CLICK THEM!

Okay, so I’m the target demographic. Guilty. Although nowadays I use nspawn, like the maniac I am.

AMD and ARM also have their remote standards, but none as distrusted as IME.

Also, remember that vulnerability where IME could be enabled through the internet by a malicious actor? That was fun…

taanegl,

They just want you to know they won’t be going soft on you.

taanegl,

They took our jobs!

taanegl,

Could I ask for an explanation of why you’re leaving? I’m a bit in the dark here.

Gentoo goes Binary (packages) (www.gentoo.org)

To speed up working with slow hardware and for overall convenience, we’re now also offering binary packages for download and direct installation! For most architectures, this is limited to the core system and weekly updates - not so for amd64 and arm64 however. There we’ve got a stunning >20 GByte of packages on our mirrors,...

taanegl,

Wait, didn’t Gentoo have a binary cache? I seem to remember many years ago that I used one…

taanegl,

Wayland on an Intel iGPU runs flawlessly and has for several years. However, that’s a matter of drivers. AMD is in the forefront regarding having dGPU support, while NVIDIA is playing catch-up.

In any case, the future is bright.

taanegl,

I’m not sure about that one. Plenty of generalisimo’s got into power, partly because of the drip - I would argue.

taanegl,

Honestly, if you’re not using nix to deploy systems or need it to create reproducible environments across systems, then NixOS is a bit overkill.

I want to use NixOS for servers and embedded systems as well, so I run it on my laptop. But the user experience gives Gentoo a run for it’s money for being the most finnicky bastard in the distro world. They would both contend if there was a Razzy award for usability.

taanegl,

It certainly takes the edge off. If it’s just another day, it’s just another day.

taanegl,

Full spread!

taanegl,

haha the catholics appropriated juletide, a festival of fattening, because they thought pagans were so gross they needed to appropriate the festivities and set the pagans on fire.

Anything is an anal bead, if you’re brave enough…

taanegl,

So my Klingon warrior name is Nosyt Ekim. Got it.

taanegl,

I would use the definition of Dr Kanye West, but that might not be appropriate.

    taanegl,

    It’s good then that we have choice of schedulers :)

    taanegl,

    What do you call a replicant of the chief engineer from the first enterprise?

    I can’t believe it’s not Tucker.

    taanegl,

    Dunno, but I kind of feel this is an opener to promote commercial software on Linux, since the Muse team can suck it.

    You’ve got:

    All of them have premium prices, but not a single one of them freemium, or always-online, meaning you get what you pay for and what you pay for is high quality software.

    Presonus if you need a pro tracker, or even the chance at mixing Atmos on Linux (though the hardware needs to be supported OS-side of things).

    Mixbus 32C is cool, because it’s EQ’s and compressors are analogue modelled after their classic console. They got that real nice vintage sound.

    Bitwig is basically a mixer/sequencer DAW, meant for electronic music and live performances.

    Now if only Ableton Live could be ported to Linux :( pretty please?

    taanegl,

    You will use Flatpaks and you will like it.

    taanegl,

    Dr Thomas Phantasy, Dr Benjamin Shamfield and Randy The Amazing are my new favourite trio of crime solving detectives. With hypnosis they uncover theft, kidnappings, and even murder? Follow them in the next issue of “Wait, wtf did I just read”.

    taanegl,

    “It works on my machine”… great.

    taanegl,

    Thanks! Will bookmark this :)

    taanegl,

    Mmmm you’re talking about key resellers. A full retail version costs $150. Keys from key resellers are notoriously unreliable. It might work forever, or it might stop working a week after you authenticated. It’s more or less a gamble.

    Great if it works for you, sucks if someone just wasted money (however little) on something that’ll stop working - especially if it’s grandma’s machine.

    Also, hedge your bets a little better, buy the ones that cost $10 or even $15. Historically speaking those are a safer bet.

    taanegl,

    Then something is wrong. Works for me.
