Neither. Debian package installed with apt.

Better compatibility with Intel Arc cards, for one. Actually that would be a really big one.

I’m on Ubuntu. I had my Intel card work pretty well in Blender 3D,except it couldn’t do BVH calculations in cycles, and I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to make it work, because the thing that is supposed to make it work breaks the render kernels for Blender.

Alright… But it still rendered faster than my GTX 1060.

But then I also realised I couldn’t boot up any UE5 game because somehow it was convinced my card isn’t DX12 compatible. Also major artefacting issues in Oblivion Remastered.

Right… So I decided to go from Ubuntu LTS to Ubuntu 25.04, because the cutting edge MESA drivers needs a newer kernel, and the newer kernel is supposedly more Intel card friendly, which might fix my BVH calculation issues with Blender as well.

UE5 games run now, except for Oblivion Remastered, which still has graphical artefacting. But Intel didn’t have render kernels for Ubuntu 25.04 yet, so I couldn’t render with cycles at all until they updated their repo.

They eventually updated their repo a week or two ago. But the render kernels don’t load at all in Blender 3D, telling me “Oh this is meant for OneAPI compatible cards”, yes, what the fuck do you think an Intel Arc A770 is!?!

So… Uh… Yeah, if there is a distro put there without all of this, that would be very great.

I have a Wooting keyboard. Comes with a Linux app image.

They’re on the expensive side, but I certainly can’t complain about the quality. I feel like this is a keyboard I’ll keep for the rest of my life.

Yes, but he also programmed Jarvis… So…

Sounds like the Catholic Church, alright. But I’m pretty sure the MAGA crowd doesn’t give a shit about that.

Whatever is a “poor choice” for the MAGA movement is a great choice in my book. Even if it’s about a religious figure.

First I typically see if other Proton versions work, like ProtonGE or Experimental. That tends to fix quite a number of issues.

If still not, to ProtonDB I go. Often if I can’t find a solution there it’s hopeless.

They’re all just incredibly shocked you’re even playing the game.

Cool story bro.

Except the story is actually cool, and you’re a real bro!

Didn’t the ROG Ally have a lot of problems? Have those problems been fixed?

Talking about melting SD card slots, needing to play plugged in to make any use of its power, and unstable frame times.

Then sue them. You have the right.

We’re dealing with a little WW2 style problem ourselves with Russia eating away at Ukraine. Would love to come and help you all, but before we do anything to a country that prides itself in having the biggest stick we gotta clean up our back yard first.

It’s an alternative to reddit.

I’ve been through some terrible things in life.

But yes, I’d still choose to be born. The universe is an amazing place, and despite everything that has happened and is going on, there truly isn’t anything as wonderful as getting to experience a small, brief slice of the universe.

Pretty sure they’re not supposed to take your phone. The point of a digital document is that you don’t have to hand in anything. Scan the QR code and they can run as many background checks on the data they want. You’ll still have your phone.

Really? You wouldn’t blame the millions of people that explicitly voted for a convicted, fascist criminal?

If Americans had any sense the race would’ve been between Stein and Harris, not between Harris and someone who shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near a presidency.

So far Ukrainian drones have impressed me a lot.

A pull request, in its most basic form, is the request for a change. The joke is that the change I’d be requesting is to make Gimp more relevant, as there isn’t just one feature or quality of life change that Gimp would need.
