trivial_wannabe,

Thank you for the correction! Reading up on eBPF is fascinating.

Additional resource that adds to your secondary point that this is more than just allowing schedulers to be run in userland: github.com/sched-ext/scx/blob/main/…/README.md

trivial_wannabe, (edited )

I looked into this a bit more and here is the summary: This is meant to show off a candidate kernel feature that allows for running different schedulers in userland.

Task scheduling has become much more complex as CPUs have grown in size and have had new developments in architecture, so the need to develop more complex and robust schedulers is steadily rising.

The kernel feature is meant to lower the barrier of entry for anyone who wants to try getting into schedulers, as well as enable quicker development iteration, by removing the need to completely recompile the linux kernel every time you want to test your code.

trivial_wannabe,

YES. I would order ~3 more just for redundancy. If this one breaks, I dont know what I’m going to do.

trivial_wannabe,

Why would I need letters at all?

keyboard without letters or numbers on its keycaps

trivial_wannabe,

Honestly, just go with Debian Stable (bookworm) with KDE or Linux Mint. It is pretty stable and a windows like experience.

I have not tried VR on it tho, so can’t speak to that.

trivial_wannabe,

Fair point, but for someone who doesn’t like tinkering and is afraid to make the jump to Linux, I still stand by the suggestion.

Different people value different things and that’s okay.

trivial_wannabe,

Oh good. I was worried that I had accidentally done something productive.

Also: your comment made me laugh out loud.

trivial_wannabe,

Fair point. In my defense I’m sick and made this on my phone while taking a bath.

How many of you run a Linux phone (Pine64, Librem etc) as your daily driver?

I was going through Pine64’s page again after I found the latest KDE announcement. With that said, I seem to see a lot of issues with firmware on the Pine, whilst the Librem is just plain out of budget for me. Was interested in how many people here run a Linux mobile as a daily driver, and how has your experience been?...

trivial_wannabe,

I used a pinephone as my daily driver for about a month. Importantly, this was 3~4 years ago, things could be better now.

My take at the time: The battery life was bad, the phone was slow, MMS did not work, making a receiving calls was iffy at best.

I really really hope this improves/has improved over time. Android gets more and more difficult to de-google. A linux phone would solve a lot of privacy issues (not all, but some)

trivial_wannabe,

Just out of curiosity, what games do you play that dont work on linux?
