I have no idea how you are having trouble with this. Are you using some weird disto or something bleeding edge? Like with Ubuntu, select "use proprietary drivers" and it always works. NixOS works fine too without hassle.

I agree. User is probably doing unsupported options. If they want to live on the bleeding edge, that is fine, but dont blame the hardware if something does not work.

Literally just follow the distro instructions. Even NixOS works fine.

Nvidia works just fine on Linux despite what anyone says. People are just upset because it's a closed source driver. I have used Nvidia exclusively for like decades without issue. Just purchased an RTX3090ti (upgrade from a 2060) for Ollama, InvokeAI, and ComfyUi. Plus I do a lot of gaming. All of it works right out of the box with no tweaking.

for those confused: "yes" in french is "oui". Oui is pronounced "Wheeeee!"

chromeos is the correct answer. It maintains itself. Also, using gdocs, gaheets, etc., you dont have to deal with backups, "lost files", etc.

Nova Launcher got bought by a data mining company a couple years ago. I left and went to Total Launcher. It is a little weird at first the way it works, but it is now my full time launcher.

I like it for the over lapping widgets that can be sized down to the pixel. It also has a bunch of built in widgets like icon widgets and allowing widgets to stick in place across home pages.

Buy the "Fiske Guide to Colleges". It lists hundreds of colleges in the US. You can look up by major, location, price, etc.

It also discusses things like social life, acceptance rate, and amenities.

I have 3 kids that are in or went to college. This was indispensable.
