If someone else is getting paid the most amount of money, I’m happy to let the most amount of work fall to them. “Sharing the responsibility” doesn’t make sense if I don’t get to share the reward. It’s a company, not a community or a family.
Yeah. In college world, one needs to be prepared for the school to not care at all and declare that it is the student’s responsibility to make sure any required software runs on their machine. And college can be a hectic stressful time, so finding time to be able to get things working on Linux may not be worth it. Having the Windows escape hatch ready is very important to be able to not lose your mind while on a deadline.
I’ve been told plenty of times that when I had bugs that weren’t getting fixed that “stability means no unexpected changes, not uptime, compile the package yourself if you need it fixed.”
There are plenty of examples of upstream projects asking debian to not package their stuff because they get bug reports for things that were fixed months ago.
Debian does not ship bugfixes. Debian only ships security fixes.
If something works, it’s not going to break. But if something doesn’t work, it’s not going to unless you fix it yourself by going outside of the official packages.
Also worth noting that Debian’s definition of “stability” doesn’t mean “doesn’t crash” even in the slightest. It means “doesn’t change.” That means not changing broken software to be newer working software.
Any non-security bug that exists will stay because new software only ships for backported security updates. So if you have a crashing issue, Debian has no interest in fixing it until the next release. Unchanging is more important than working.
If you don’t have any crashes or bugs popping up, Debian is great, because it won’t introduce crashes or bugs. Nothing unexpected will happen.
By Debian’s definition, the Titanic is now VERY stable, unmoving at the bottom of the ocean.
Nano… Like… The one that has all the keybinds permanently shown at the bottom of the screen?
This lightning talk requires running SteamVR for the room setup bits, and it recommends a few things in the name of “user friendliness” that I would otherwise not suggest (Ubuntu bad, Gnome bad, etc). (edit: so switching to Monado wouldn’t really help since it would require SteamVR working in the first place, and if SteamVR works… OP could just use SteamVR)
But it does show a lot of problems and solutions and things to try along the way.
Based on https://db.vronlinux.org/ (which is like protondb for VR, kinda), monado works better for VRChat, but otherwise SteamVR should honestly work just fine.
Is your issue getting it to start at all, or performance issues?
For me it wouldnt start at all in the default big picture mode and would only start in desktop mode.
I made a few tweaks to get performance tuned up when I was on the Vega64, but I don’t remember what all I did there.
edit: Also, I’m the KDE desktop (i wanted my HTPC/VRPC to be as steamdeck similar as possible, and also I have strong anti gnome feelings).
Yeah. Valve Index.
I originally got it working on a Ryzen 1700, and Vega64. But Vega64 is old GCN architecture and it performed poorly.
I have since upgraded the VR setup to Ryzen 5950x and Radeon 6900xt, and it works quite well. I just played an hour of Beat Saber actually.
Interesting. I use Bazzite for my SteamVR setup. Though I do have to swap to desktop mode for VR, otherwise works great (I have a steamdeck build installed because HTPC, so it boots to big picture, but the desktop mode still works).
no. but asmongold, even if you dont like him is one of the larger, more influential people out there. Should he be? Is his content that good? Doesn’t matter.
“Who even is that” heavily implies “why should I care” and the answer is: because he has a fanbase of rabid morons incapable of independent thought who will do whatever he says to do. So linux spaces are very likely about to be bombarded with people who hate linux without having ever tried it because asmongold said he didn’t like it, or a bunch of people adopting linux.
It also heavily implies “Im proud of the fact that I dont know who this person is.” Which is just not impressive. “Taylor Swift? Who is that?” indicates you are living under a rock, not that you are cool. And aside from pewdiepie, asmongold is probably one of the youtube gamer names people know.
A youtuber with 5 million followers and 5 billion views, and has won “Streamer of the Year” at the streamer awards in the past.
If you’re asking out of genuine curiosity: a youtuber with a lot of influence.
If you’re asking to brag how out of touch you are: someone with more influence than you.
An “official” arch package? The arch package is packaged by the arch maintainers. https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/discord
The maintainers of the PKGBUILD are all arch maintainers, which just downloads the generic .tar.gz file discord provides and puts it in all the places you need for you.
The “official” arch packages are just PKGBUILDs like the AUR, except prebuilt, managed (and signed) by the arch team.
Based on the only comparison we have, the OP is twice the age of their sister. so the sister is now 44/2, or 22. Easy problem.
The entire joke is that every organ has a purpose, and the purpose of your brain is to make bad decisions.
I would never buy Jade. I always buy snsv laptops
It isn’t just about ungoogling things though. Having a monoculture in the browser space means that if Google makes a push to favor ads, say by removing certain extension support from their browser engine that everyone uses, then the entire internet suffers. It is effectively a monopoly.
Mozilla tries really hard sometimes to be unappealing, but there is value in not just letting Google have full control over the internet.
I know nothing about this specific person. But the American Republican party is on a bit of a hypocritical purity crusade. They claim that porn is bad. They are the ones getting all worked up about other peoples sexual life, because it somehow affects the sanctity of their marriage.
So this article is pointing out his hypocrisy. He is doing something wrong by his own standards, so what room does he have to try to make laws about his stupid beliefs when he doesn’t even follow them himself.
Wine/proton are great but not perfect. Lots of games don’t work through proton. “Compatible with linux” can mean doing the work to make sure your windows build is proton friendly and will work on Linux. It doesn’t have to mean Linux native.
https://docs.bazzite.gg/Dev/
There is a whole Bazzite for Devs page that mentions Bazzite-DX for development to handle some things like devcontainers: https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite-dx
Their main website also says:
At the end of the day, its an immutable fedora distro. Which may serve your needs. or may not. And bazzite’s primary focus is on gaming. It will most likely work (given a few criteria), but it may not given that is not their primary focus.
