There is no easier to use and more functional desktop with great user experience than Linux.

Ignoring the fact that you make it sound like Linux has a single unified desktop experience…

I’d love to hear your reason for thinking that. I’m a Linux fanboy and even I’m smelling the bullshit.

Obviously not every single time. If the major players in the Linux ecosystem had adhered to his extremist views, Linux would be in the same spot as GNU Hurd: forgotten, outclassed by less extremist competitors.

Recommended, yes, but I’ve had issues with the pre-compiled modules before, so I switched to nvidia-dkms to make sure the binaries are always freshly baked.

Not the right place to ask. Try the official forums of your distro, or one of the many Linux communities on Lemmy.

Is that HDR? I can tell you right now that HDR is still experimental on all Wayland compositors (Plasma seems to be the farthest along, but still not reliable), and will never be implemented in X11.

How about you sudo apt-get better jokes?

pacman -S nvidia-dkms

Hollywood, here I come!

“I don’t have a monkey in this circus”

At some point it starts sounding like an amateur mumble rap cover of the Pillar Men theme.

I don’t find it confusing at all. The function doesn’t test equivalence, and the return value is not meant to be a logical value.

That’s not the truth. It’s one of infinitely many truths. They hated him because Jesus didn’t understand how implicit type casting between int and bool worked.

tldr is the application you need.

They were probably trying to run out the warranty period. (for legal reasons, this is speculation)

Not exactly. It splits the terminal into multiple tiles and each one contains a different Hacker screen. Anything from Matrix-style falling characters to echoing a random manpage to a filesystem tree to a character graphic world map.

I use Linux because the Windows normies recoil from my computer in fear whenever I open the terminal, like a school of fish around a shark. Sometimes I even open htop if I want the office to myself.

a lot of younger devs like it and thus it will attract their contributions.

You get it! That is probably the biggest “soft” factor for why I want to see Rust proliferate. Nobody wants to learn C! It’s an ancient, cumbersome language that is difficult to use in a secure way. I’ve been both a student and an employee at a university with many programming-related classes, and beyond the absolute basics of memory management, nobody does anything in C, or even C++. It’s almost always C#, Java, Javascript, or Python. No Rust yet because most of our teachers are also geriatrics.

Linux (and FOSS in general) has an age issue. Prolific older developers are leaving their projects or transitioning to less code-focused tasks, and the ranks are not being filled. Prospective young developers simply bounce off projects because of steep entry requirements, and the active resistance of anti-Rust evangelists (the likes of Christoph Hellwig for example) doesn’t help either.

Some of their 13th and 14th generation CPUs have manufacturing defects that resulted in oxidation. In some use cases (servers and such), failure rates sometimes reached 50%. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVdmK1UGzGs

who are very loud

Most of the “should we or should we not” discourses/dramas I’ve read about were initiated or escalated by the anti-Rust crowd. They seem to be a lot more vocal (not to mention impolite) about their opinions than actual Rust developers.

The bane of Intel CPUs, and a trigger word for C geriatrics.

Skelly is rapidly approaching your location.

tl;dr: some applications (like Bottles) are designed to run only in sandboxed environments. Flatpak is a robust way to ensure that an application has the correct dependencies and conditions for proper functionality.

I’m using a monospace font, am I a hacker yet?
