Humans know to drive more carefully in low visibility…Muskboxes don’t.

They do, actually. It even displays a message on the screen about low visibility.

That’s not the same thing though. “Paused indefinitely” means they intend to pick it back up at an undisclosed time in the future.

Underrated

there’s plenty of anime pornography on the Threadiverse too.

Sure but pretty much none of the apps are going to be opened and be presented with “here have anime tiddies!”

Thanks, this looks like what I was looking for. Unfortunately these install instructions also look complicated.

These instructions require a very basic understanding of the Linux command line and file system.

No tengo, but thanks.

As does installing a Linux OS without a GUI helper.

I don’t do that either.

I meant a workstation OS. Or any Linux OS that’s not locked to a corporate account and probably filled with spyware.

here are my quick notes on how to do so step by step.

I don’t even understand the first sentence of these instructions. “Mount the device” followed by a bunch of seemingly random letters and characters. Mount it on what? What do I do with these?

Is there no way to just install Linux on the Reader? I don’t understand any of those words in the hacking instructions.

If you actually read the OP article, they specify that there aren’t any other ebook readers available in their region, and that they could use it without connecting it to their Amazon account, or even to the internet at all.

And you have to know that if anyone actually tried, they would dedicate their infinite resources to making that as difficult as humanly possible.

Imagine being so rich that you can afford to burn down one of your companies and destroy large swathes of the internet in the process over a beef with someone using your FOSS you didn’t even create.

I hope Lina Kahn goes after them for this BS. They have a monopoly on the browser market and they’re exploiting that to further their own interests in the advertising industry.

I don’t know why either. What I do know is that most Chromium browsers that are not Chrome have ad-blocking built into the browser itself using the same strategies as uBo but not reliant on Mv2 or Mv3 because they’re not extensions.

No. Not like that. You’re pathetic. Goodbye.

That literally doesn’t work.

I have no idea how you’re not having trouble with this.

select “use proprietary drivers” and it always works

You’re assuming that it “always” happens because it happens for you. It simply does not. Everyone in this thread agreeing with me is not just stupid.

e.g “being stuck buying only amd kit”

For the third time, not a consequence. Consequence implies some sort of sacrifice.

Oh no, absolutely nothing else to add.

Excellent, glad to hear it. 👍

This is the literal definition of a consequence

…what is?

Fucking hell…

…was there something you wanted to add?

you’re limited to systems that use an AMD chip

Once again, not a consequence.

I don’t think - I know.

You know…what? AMD always works out of the box?

But since I install my packages using “apt” they are all managed by dkms and I don’t need to worry about it.

My guy, I don’t even know what these words mean. And with AMD, I don’t have to become a software engineer. It just works.

Cross device synchronization, battery optimization for mobile devices, faster update speeds, etc.

If you don’t want to learn how the system you use works then you suffer the consequences.

No consequences here. I’m perfectly happy continuing on using AMD.

you just continue to blame nvidia for your own ignorance as I’m sure you will.

It’s nothing to do with my ignorance and everything to do with me simply not want to spend hours upon hours digging through forums and entering commands that do nothing.

Why do you think AMD always work out of the box and people constantly have problems with Nvidia? Is it because they’re “ignorant” or because it’s unnecessarily convoluted?
