I kinda feel like people don’t really care, I mean the ones who care are here and they left these products behind, but we’re really a small fraction that barely counts, most just use these stuff, they just don’t overthink it.

Are you me? I have a very similar ASUS with similar hw and it’s rocking MX 32bit, if you want more cutting edge stuff, you can switch to 32bit Void (xbps is blazing fast, but the docs aren’t Arch-wiki-quality)

I think you don’t need any special software, the linux kernel recognizes DS4 OOTB as a game controller, I tried it with Flycast (standalone, not libretro’s) and it was just plug and play

Yes, bad actors can exist everywhere, it doesn’t really help anything but fragment the project and harm it, do we need multiple directed forks ? Fuck no it will be best if everyone can monitor and contribute, I kind of think of it as they do peer reviewing in research and shit, it’s always better when more people can view it, that will leave less room for biasing and frankly detect bad actors easily

Red Hat recently blocked my country from accessing Fedora (both site and repos), while I could use a VPN (which would fucking suck, I’d have to keep it on the entire time I’m upgrading) but fuck them, I moved to Arch.

This is just horrible, fuck big tech and their services

I’m pretty sure it will be supported for more than a couple of years, my 930m (not even mx) is still receiving the latest driver updates

Why not NewPipe?

To earn the right to work

One of the biggest things I have built was a experimental 3D physics engine, it did require some memory allocation optimizations, I built a lot of stuff I cannot really list them all in here, An honorable mention would be an FPS game from scratch without a game engine.

can’t update

Yeah, that’s the problem, if your hardware can run the latest software, it should be able to update to the latest software

I’m starting to suspect my HDD failing at this point, so many weird bugs lately

Yes I have polkit installed

Executing startplasma-wayland returns the following:

startplasmacompositor: Could not start D-Bus, Can you call qdbus?

I don’t have an excutable/command named qdbus

Yes I do

Yes everything in TTY works as intended, I can login as my user account and sudo works as it should

I have my YouTube history off and before they disabled shorts feed for people with no history this is how it looked like, creepy af

I need the little paw back so bad

better development machine

By developing on a GNU/Linux VM instead? fuck MS for not finding a suitable solution for developing on their OS for years and shoving an entire another OS inside instead

Maybe it’s some marketing thing? Like their feature MUST start with Windows™ regardless of getting confusing as hell, it may also help not techie people who make decisions and want to still use a Windows™ solution suggested by a techie
