Mint is actually one of the ones I tried before. It did not like my multi-GPU setup, though. Could only use one GPU at a time, which means I could only use a maximum of 4 monitors.
Maybe I’ll try it again, though, when I upgrade to a more sensible monitor/GPU setup.
Plus, it will divert Russian personnel, fuel, and other resources away from Ukraine.
If that’s something you’re going to be doing a lot, maybe look into starting a Mastodon account or some other service more specifically tailored to blogging?
You could be totally screwed in that assignment just by having a very common name.
I finally got my GF on Linux, and she’s not far off.
Posting this from Kubuntu Studio and … it’s not bad, really. Everything works fine. I even have a couple Snap packages installed … on purpose. (Though, generally, I do try to avoid snaps.) The bloat might be relevant in lighter systems (which is why I have a different distro on my shitty old chromebook), but this is a massive workstation PC that could handle 10x the bloat without noticeably slowing down, so who cares?
(The reason I’m using Ubuntu is because after trying several distros, Ubuntu is for some reason the only one where my stupid, insane, 6-monitor multi-GPU setup worked properly, right out of the box. I eventually intend to go to 4 huge monitors instead of 6 smaller ones, which means I’ll be able to drop down to a reasonable, rational choice of using only one GPU instead of two different ones. At that point, maybe I’ll try distro-hopping again. Though, honestly, “exactly like Ubuntu, but without Canonical and without Snaps” would be what I’m looking for. Would definitely prefer to stick with apt package management, since that’s what I’m used to at this point. Maybe I’ll try straight-up Debian? But I don’t really like the way Debian splits its repositories, where you basically have to choose between “extremely outdated” and “bleeding edge” with no “as up to date as possible, while still being well-tested and stable” option in between. For all of Ubuntu’s faults, I think they actually do a pretty good job of maintaining that balance between stability and being up-to-date.)
Really slow download speeds?
or let ignorant people post YOUR image to FB
Yeah … good luck with that.
The person you replied to thinks their shopping list is somehow immune to advertising
Yep. They only buy things on their list, okay.
So which brand of that thing are you going to buy? The one you recognize most and are most familiar with, maybe?
It’s cute how you think deleting your account will stop them.
Great. So now Facebook can become a literal ghost town.
I wonder how advertisers paying for ads on Facebook feel about paying to advertise to dead people?
When you want to do GPU processing for AI, crypto, video editing, etc, though, this gets reversed.
Getting Cuda working on Linux with an nvidia card is relatively painless. Just a few well-documented commands, worked on the first try.
I could never get AMD’s equivalent to work on Linux, though, and it led me down a horrible rabbit-hole of trying a dozen different driver versions from a dozen different places, all with their own unique and quirky ways of installing… And it still never did work.
They really do like to penalize people for caring about their privacy, don’t they?
ENOUGH THAT I CAN USE IT AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR PANCAKE SYRUP IN A PINCH IF NECESSARY!!!
Yep, either way, your job is toast.
AI succeeds: AI takes your job.
AI fails: Economy crashes and you lose your job due to the crash.
But you won’t be able to afford it because the market crash means you lose your job.
The ones that require traffic lights and shit never seem to work properly for me. They always make me do an endless repetition of them, going through dozens and dozens before it finally, maybe lets me see the website I was trying to get to.
Maybe I’m just not human enough?
If I put sugar in it, I might as well be drinking soda and juice again.
Those terms are specifically used by the pedo “roleplay” portion of the anime fandom
How would you even know enough about that portion of that fandom to know such things…? 🤨
Why wouldn’t they? You don’t even have to be logged in to view them.
You should never assume anything you post publicly online is at all private or hidden from any search engine/AI.
