EXT4 is your all-rounder. Unix feature complete and reliable. No actually big downsides that would make it insufficient for, well, anything.

BTRFS is your complex and feature rich option. All the modern file system features like copy-on-write, snapshots, subvolumes, deduplication. Good for putting an operating system or user files on. Stuff you might want to snapshot or sort into subvolumes, etc.

XFS has some neat features too, but it has one main focus, performance. The difference isn’t massive since it’s just a file system, but for the fastest transfers speeds, with the smallest CPU impact, nothing beats XFS afaik. It’s also fully unix feature complete, so it has no trouble with symlinks, hardlinks, permissions, etc. EXT4 can theoretically be faster if handling a ton of tiny files, but game files are usually above that threshold.

“Hey… Nice mass surveillance system you got there, mind if I have a turn?”

It boggles my mind how some people thought privacy was worthless, and harmless to give up.

If you have access to another device, you can log into icloud.com and remotely log out of the phone.

Files “deleted” from icloud can also be restored on icloud.com/recovery for up to 30 days after deletion.

Yes. But you don’t have to switch.

People say “start” with simpler distros because if you go past just using it as-is, and grow to understand linux closer to the system level, you’ll likely eventually end up preferring something more complex.

There’s little point to starting at the deep end, like arch, since you don’t know whether you’ll end up staying in the shallows yet. Either way, it’s the start. It can also be the end, but that is unknowable.

Nah.

Just do what Valve did with Wine.

Officially fork and contribute to Heroic.

I’m referencing this.

I’m antitheist, personally.

We have the power of god and anime on our side.

The actual one.

Really common, actually. RAM doesn’t really wear out, so if you do get hit with some faulty DIMMS, look into RMAs.

Didn’t there use to be an unlimited tier?

That you can’t do.

It’s possible in some cases but looks like Thunder doesn’t support it for guest profiles.

The local feed is unique to each instance, and content in it may not exist on yours. For a community to be federated to a given instance, it must have at least one local user who is a subscriber, and the community can’t be local only.

Thunder can add instances using a “guest” profile. Basically browse only mode without an account.

Theft.

Unknown.

It’ll be running some kind of ARM soc. Hades has been demoed running flawlessly on it. No VR titles yet, but there is no reason they couldn’t work, too.

?

The 580 driver does support wayland, it’s not that old. Or are you worried about future breaking changes since you won’t get updates?

I just switched my sisters old laptop with a 970m over to the nvidia-580xx driver, available on the AUR. Further manual maintenance should be unnecessary until the kernel becomes too new for that.

I even had to enable wayland for GDM because it was trying to use X11 and failing.

She plays minecraft and a couple other games so the nouveau was not an option.

Yeah. It’s almost more like Steam, complete with unmoderated social platform functionality.

Mihon has a setting to flash the display when changing pages to reduce ghosting on e-ink displays.

Which you shouldn’t use. E-ink refreshes are far more complex than simply flashing the screen a solid color, involving multiple steps to massage the e-ink in the panel into a sharp image. These are calculated and done by the e-ink display driver on any decent device, whenever the image on screen changes enough.

Mihon also does the flash out of sync with the actual display refresh (if it’s set to occur on tap), CAUSING ghosting, instead of reducing it.

If you can configure your e-ink device to do a full display refresh on tap, simply do that.

In Mihon, just disable animations, and let the e-ink display driver handle display refreshes.

True AI will happen one day

You literally can’t know that.

Science isn’t even sure that if it does, we’ll be able to tell.

Right now, to me at least, “clanker” is used to dismiss the corporate desire to hook us all on socializing with their products, instead of our fellow peoples.

And in doing that, it is, today at least, a force for good.

Did you already find this?

I use this one professionally, yet to come across a PC that wouldn’t boot from it.

And yeah, you won’t benefit unless the PC also has both fast ports and fast storage.

But half of the time I’m using it to move files from a customers old PC to their new one, and more aften than not, even the old one has at least one quick usb C port.
