  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.

  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Good mor---

    Good afternoon, :QuarteredCircle: Radians!

    If it weren't for the sleeping in on a Sunday I wouldn't be getting enough sleep. Today I've got a Silat class to teach, then D&D. I am hoping the craptastic video issue stays quite enough for my game, then I can re-attack that in the morning. I did love the fact that thanks to @linuxmemes, I feel seen.

    I count myself lucky for holding on to my 1080ti for as long as I did - by the time I made the switch to Linux the drivers were pretty stable

    Just got a 1060 used literally yesterday (the same day as this comment)

    1080 here :)

    Still using my 1070

    750 Ti, and the driver is still garbage. on plasma wayland had to turn off window previews on taskbar for the environment to not freeze randomly. a kernel update earlier there was an 80% chance the whole thing would crash after login on the firsf frame of the desktop, or before that. gamescope has problems thanks to nvidua unique things: FSR is pure blackness but even without that, games are tearing and slow while even a test animation like vkcube maxes out a cpu core of a cpu that's not nearly that bad. and that's just been the product of a single week of linux usage on the desktop.

    970 and the drivers are still shite

    @wingsfortheirsmiles Up until last week, I was getting by pretty well, but now...

    Seeing my meme being reposted after just 5 days feels rather affirming. Nvidia drivers really suck. 😁

    Out of tree module taints kernel for a reason.

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

    Because of the price of the recent gen or because it doesn't work?

    With the recent driver versions I have zero problems with my 3070 on Fedora.

    That was posted here just four days ago.

    @Diplomjodler3 Yeah, that's where I was reposting it from. I was trying to cite the source, not realizing that was reposting it. I edited my original post so hopefully it doesn't carry through any further.

    Had to get steam deck, cheapest computer I could get that was made for Linux and gaming. My gaming laptop is more powerful but yet fucking Nvidia won't work on it. And yes I did literally everything I can do. It's a lost cause. Now I only use it for looking for a job and some intense games that can't run on my steam deck.

    Ok, this was my first out-loud laugh of the day. I really like the MJ docuseries. And I also work in tech / have an affinity for tech. And nothing works anymore, so this got me. I like it.

    Edit: because I’m scrolling on my phone and my computer, this has made me laugh three times.
