That's exactly what's already happened. Rocky and Alma are already no longer an option for a free version of Red Hat since Red Hat code is not allowed to be shared, it can only be viewed. Read their own words from Alma and Rocky, what they themself said about oing forward.

Red Hat can also change the license agreement further to include anyone proven to have published source code of Red Hat branded material agrees to pay a fee to Red Hat of no less than $10 million, or whatever price they want to put on it.

Everyone can scream about Red Hat, all they have to have to do is change some wording in agreement that includes fees(fines) for multi millions of dollars, BOOM! Red Hat becomes a proprietary system built on open source software.

SUSE says they will fork RHEL, but Alma and Rocky are over in terms of being a clone. People have asked for years why there is no free 1 to 1 clone of SLES and SLED. IBM is free to choose to turn all of RHEL in a proprietary development and lock it down, unless you can get a court order that says Red Hate's code must be made public, but I don't dare test IBM lawyers over any code that is not released under AGPLv3, only then I would.

How serious are you and how much sacrifice are you willing to make to limit spending? It can be done only if you are willing to change how you're living, and view more things as luxeries, not mandatory for living life.

Adjust lifestyle to cut out expenses like never eat out, get rid of cell service and change to online phone service, downsize things at home, try to take on extra work, learn a new skill you monetize or make life better, see about changing living arrangements or if there is anywhere cheaper to move, even if it means smaller. Get rid of paid streaming services.

I really don't care about RHEL. Unless companies want to buy their services to be allowed access to the software it, everyone should forget about Red Hat. It's done, it's gone. And there will never be a free version of Red Hat, so look at other long term alternatives.

Services like TCP/IP are daemons, they use Kb, it can be used as a very basic simple web server with only a shell to configure everything.

I am talking about on 32bit hardware, install a new release of any open source operating system, try using the latest release of a GUI web brwser Firefox or Chromium and see how well it runs, compared to even a dual core with 8GB 64bit OS.

How much would that lighten the kernel load, and potentially speed it up, doing a simple delete of all 32-bit code?

Given that 32bit has a hard limit of 4GB of RAM, it can't run anything that requires more than a terminal shell to run and none of the security protections like memory address randomization.

Copy and send the 32bit code to someone for archive and historical purposes, then do a Select All and push delete, erase the code fron the kernel file.

Everyone is going to have to accept that RHEL is over and done. Since paying customers are not allow to release the code publicly, overtime it could turn into its own ooerating system that happens to use the Linux kernel, similar to Android.

Forget about Red Hat, they're gone, they're not an option for any small company. Individuals should never have been using Red Hat, but companies are going to have to find something else like Debian/Devuan, FreeBSD, something with a stable branch that gets 3 to 4 years of updates.

The 4090 is the first solid 4K everything video card, but the 4K standard is coming, including video cards that start at 16GB and go up from there. 4K movies. More game engines will develop textures in 4K. You not being interested is not the same as the market shifting that way. 4K OLED is not the expensive premium they used to be for such a gorgous picture.

If somone wants high framerate, 1440 will always be there. I believe all future graphics cards technologies will be developed with the intention of targeting the hardware demands of 4K 120fps. Cards for 1440p 165hz are already available.

Future consoles will do 4K, people who only watch TV or stream to TV, all 4K, only PC muiltiplayer will care about high framerates but not for console, so 1440 will slways be available for lower hardware systems, similiar to 1080p is currently.

I plan to buy maybe the 2nd highest GPU in 2 years and then the year after buy a 4K screen, possibly OLED, as those prices continue dropping year after year. I never play multiplayer so I will be doing well with 4K 120fps.

How much are you enjoying the giant uplift in performance?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (5 children)

The specs are very good, there's nothing to change on it. But I garauntee that 7600 will barely be crawling in 3 years, unless you play 8 year old games. Test to see if GPU is bottlenecking rhe 12700.

The next generation will have GDDR7, textures get bigger every year, and I do buy games every year, but there's a reason 16GB VRAM is not ridiculous.

Between higher resolution like when 4K is the norm in the years ahead, working towards 8K and games demanding higher performance from GPU, in 6 years your 7600 might be a $10 add-on card.
