I just live out of my downloads folder until its time to back up the important stuff to the server and reinstall/ distrohop.

Its more about being on the edge of hardware. The kernel is still being updated to support my chip. What wrapper goes around that kernel is secondary. What fedora allows is for me to stay up to date as relevant kernel patches come through.

Yeah I’m paying attention to some arch builds for my machine. I’ve gone deep enough that I’m literally following the https://lkml.org/ to see how support for my machine and the chipset is going. Its why I’m prob going back to fedora after this, so I can stay on the latest kernel.

[edit: this seems to work on voyager, but not in browser. I’m kind of blown away it was that easy.]

Thats you isn’t it.

Hmm. Well I was on a tear of trying new operating systems trying to get a bit of bleeding edge kit working. I was about to be traveling and I needed it to just work. Bazzite had a release specific to my model… and it all seemed hunky dory, until it wasn’t and I couldn’t get in and wrench. I think in that week I probably went through 20+ different ISO’s and install scripts trying to get to an install that would let me use the GPU acceleration I paid for. Tried fedora, bazzite (and bazzite did work, but I had issues with the wifi/ blue tooth driver, but I had to do containers/ sandboxes to actually use RoCM), ubuntu, others.

I ended up on Ubuntu for this machine because at least I can wrench on things, and I wasn’t prepared to take the Arch jump off the diving board (at least not on a new machine before traveling). And its been “fine”.

But I genuinely do no like the Ubuntu experience. Once I can slick this machine (when I’m done with my current project), I’m going to go to Fedora because that should allow me to stay with the most up to date kernel.

Yeah I tried Bazzite. Idk if its because I’m already in club tuxedo, but the whole immutability thing did not work for me when it didn’t work with my hardware out the gate.

But if it had, wow, what a slick experience.

Uh no.

Not the kinds of things I need to be able to do. There simply isn’t the support. Taken a ridiculous amount of time to get even basic support to do the kinds of things I need to be able to do on AMD hardware.

Valve phone? I don’t really want an arm steam deck. It’s important to me I be able to run stuff outside of games on my deck. It’s not just a handheld, it’s a full fledged pc in a handheld body.

But if they want to make a valve phone with a Linux based os…

Go on…

Bing has its uses

Porn?

I had the purple looking one. Advance wars got me and buddies through soooo many underways. Turn based, pass it around the ship.

Oh its something with a use so obvious we need not even write down its name or mention it.

I’m sorry if this upsets you as much as it did me, but I think everyone should know someone has posted a picture of the word TITS painted on a tree in Sussex

If you have chidren please reconsider feddit.uk as a potential travel destination until this post has been removed and incinerated.

Ugh. The issues I’m having right now with an Asus realtek chip set. Wifi, blue tooth, audio.

Trump’s cabinet probably:

One liter?

That’s like, barely enough for a brief hike. Minimum 20 liters a head.

It depends what you mean by real time, but GOES is pretty sick:

Updates every five minutes.

Then of course MODIS, VIIRS, Landsat, others. Those don’t have the nice viewer though like this, and yeah, there is some processing, but if you grab through GEE you can get some “preprocessed” results.

Edit (I think this will work?):

This image should stay updated to the “live” view of the western GOES satellite:

Yeah but I really need to update the kernel
