voodooattack,

And yet most work despite not being officially certified. Use ProtonDB if you want more accurate empirical data on what works and what doesn’t.

Wanting to improve my Linux skills after 17 months of daily driving Linux

I’ve been daily driving Linux for 17 months now (currently on Linux Mint). I have got very comfortable with basic commands and many just works distros (such as Linux Mint, or Pop!_OS) with apt as the package manager. I’ve tried Debian as a distro to try to challenge myself, but have always ran into issues. On my PC, I could...

voodooattack,

Debugging a kernel panic is not what most people consider “fun”. Especially with a non-zero chance of bricking your machine on bare metal if you mess up somewhere. I’ve done driver development for both Windows and Linux in both hobbyist and professional capacities and it’s not a fun experience to say the least.

voodooattack,

But you’ll be the EMPEROR, and the EMPEROR Must Please Emerging Renegades Of Recursiveness.

Ok. I’m convinced.

voodooattack,

The incessant idea that I get when I read about quantum physics: with no observers and nothing to interact with/measure it, was the universe itself in superposition during the Big Bang? If so, did the wave function even collapse or are we just one of the possible outcomes inside of it?

voodooattack,

Never said anything about it not existing. From what I understood, a particle that’s not interacting with an outside force stays in superposition by default. The universe was supposedly a single particle at the moment of the Big Bang, thus it stands to reason that it would have been in superposition if it couldn’t interact with anything else.

voodooattack,

I see what you mean, but if this is possible, then I don’t see why not the entire universe as a whole near T≈0.

voodooattack,

So you’re saying it’s absolutely, 100% impossible that the universe in its entirety was/is in superposition at any one point?

voodooattack,

That’s the wrong interpretation of “observing”. Observation is the act of measuring the properties of an object/particle by “interacting” with it. Basically if something is not being observed (I.e completely isolated) it enters superposition until such a time that it’s measured/interacted with again. Observation has nothing to do with consciousness imo, just connection to causality in the universe at large.
