I’m just waiting for the moment I can update my packages (when all the unstable builds get updated)

We need to do a group buy. I don’t want 62 laptops, but there might be 61 other people that want one more laptop…

You can vibe code your config so now you have no excuse

What do you mean the entire thing broke a few months ago? It broke only weeks ago, NixOS has the freshest breakages in the linux ecosystem

I remember you were able to crash someone’s PC by sending them a link to a webpage. This is what security updates prevent and there were even worse ones

So they could do it for pixels and this open source firmware could be used by Graphene OS, for example?

Is that after or before it has to tell you it may cause cancer?

Do not recommend. I’m on apixaban now because it doesn’t require frequent blood tests

Ubuntu is gross, don’t recommend. It works until it doesn’t. Expect questions like “why doesn’t USB access work in chromium” and having to try to explain what snap is

I got a pixel for GrapheneOS

If you can choose. I wasn’t able to get chromium installed without hunting for a .deb and I needed USB access which snap didn’t give me

I wish everyone would just switch to standard OTPs

I’m glad installers don’t work on Linux

What’s the point of hibernation? You have so much stuff open in some exact state you can’t just turn off the computer?

It takes less time for me to boot fresh than to resume from hibernation (32GB of RAM)

No, if there are issues, there are issues. The logic only works one way:

If one person doesn’t have issues doesn’t mean some people don’t have issues. But if even one person has issues it necessarily means some people have issues

That’s not quite true. AMD cards just get clocked higher from the factory. So when a 9070xt beats a 5070 by an average of 17%, you can easily cap the power limit to match the performance. That’s with more VRAM which of course increases the power requirements

The prices don’t quite match up, though since it’s between the 5070 and the ti (although in the US it’s often more expensive for some reason)

The problem is that AMD is selling the chips to OEMs for a price that’s too high to enable to sell at MSRP while giving a discount for small batches of MSRP models. It becomes a lottery where the quickest people can get $600 models refreshing ever rarer restocks.

One of the reasons is… tariffs, but I’m not sure how Nvidia got the prices down on its models

I have freezes on the latest Nvidia drivers as recently as yesterday on wine. Also Wayland wine is not ready, doesn’t even full screen properly

Osu! linux version is ten times slower than wine using the same graphics back end. Yes, I get over 1000 fps on wine and only 100 natively. It would be fine if it didn’t get choppy and drop lower during the busiest part of the game.

Just because it works for you doesn’t mean it doesn’t have issues

You have laptops with upgradable GPUs? They came out with a GPU upgrade for my 16

He’s much closer to broke than a billionaire. 100 million dollars is just 1/10th of a billion and he probably doesn’t even have that, thankfully

It becomes an integrity check arms race. Graphene OS devs not keen on this idea, but they may not have a choice in the near future
