idk man fedora does a lot well these days (i use arch btw)

aBundleOfFerrets,

A lot of people that run three monitors got all three from a thrift store for $8

aBundleOfFerrets,

I think that is the version for the archiso build, and I don’t think it should be used as a version for the OS

aBundleOfFerrets,

Well shit I guess we win then

aBundleOfFerrets,

Arch doesn’t have a global version

aBundleOfFerrets,

I have never had the luxury of using a heated air dryer

aBundleOfFerrets,

Every air dryer that doesn’t suck is extremely loud

Gentle reminder to everyone that support for ends in about 90 weeks. Many computers can't upgrade to Win 11 so here are your options:

  1. Continue on Win 10 but with higher security risks.
  2. Buy new and expensive hardware that supports Win11.
  3. Try a beginner friendly distro like . It only takes about two months to acclimate.

aBundleOfFerrets,

You only need to go back to intel 7th gen to lose support. These are CPUs from 2017 that are still more than capable today.

aBundleOfFerrets,

Nvidia on wayland still has some nasty implicit sync bugs, but it is mostly fine.

aBundleOfFerrets,

Not really a GUI toolkit but many many games use SDL and they also gain wayland support with a library update

aBundleOfFerrets,

Edge and chrome are both not webkit browsers

aBundleOfFerrets,

There are not very many amputees compared to pregnant woman, and babies have a lot more bones that are in your typical limb

What do you guys do when you want to run unmaintained programs? (lemmy.world)

I recently wanted to run tegaki, and my experience is pretty much summed up by the meme. I consider myself fairly tech-savvy, but I just couldn’t figure out how to compile it. So I just gave up, downloaded the .exe and put it into a fresh wine prefix. After installing CJK fonts, everything ran fine. Now I’m trying to get...

aBundleOfFerrets,

They cwyin

aBundleOfFerrets,

You can get an intel arc a310 for ~$90 and it has absolutely insane transcode performance, so depending on how large your library is it might even end up cheaper than buying more storage to just live-transcode everything.

aBundleOfFerrets,

Note that for jellyfin (or any software) to reduce the bitrate it will have to transcode the video

aBundleOfFerrets,

A trillion of an SI prefix will always be silly. Just use a bigger prefix!

aBundleOfFerrets,

I wouldn’t call that unmaintained then?

aBundleOfFerrets,

qBittorrent and Proton VPN has worked well for me

an old LGA2011 xeon workstation. It is wild overkill (and not very power efficient) but it isn’t only a seedbox and it has as much PCIe expansion as I could ever want.

aBundleOfFerrets, (edited )

Box says gas included. Gary thinks of everything

aBundleOfFerrets,

Honestly, when I learned that rEFInd supports loading dxe modules natively I swapped and never looked back (NVMe boot drives on ancient computers, my beloved)

aBundleOfFerrets,

Modern OS pretty much takes completely over after the preboot is done. There will be very negligible difference in the os unless the old firmware was poorly configured (fairly common, admittedly)

aBundleOfFerrets,

The cold teeth part is called masochism, friend

aBundleOfFerrets,

try using nvidia-dkms and linux-headers instead of nvidia

aBundleOfFerrets,

What arm board :p
Honest question. All the ones I have seen are really awful and I would love to tinker with something that has real pcie (Ampere workstations do not count)
