sounds cool but my main concerns are adequate hardware support... even a year after getting an RX 7800XT there is still some holdouts that don't give adequate support for this AMD hardware, and not having HDR support was a big irritation since i have an OLED monitor
struggling for several days just to get a display on this thing a year ago has left scars
It’s dumb they can’t get it rolled out yet. It’s AMD and supposed to have kernel drivers being oss.
I guess you can’t really test the daily 2510 releases as those aren’t that different yet from 2504
it's the distros that are the problem, mainly, and i think the kernel devs are a bit culpable as well
linux went woke when linus stopped being salty and the whole project got coopted by DEI bullshit, and the kind of mentality of people who are woke are not even aware of the history of repeated attempts to quietly roll out back doors that especially Intel are guilty of, or the number of bugs that they baked into silicon
there's a reason why us AMD fans are salty, and why conservative developers have an axe to grind with the tech establishment
my grievances go all the way back to the asset stripping of Commodore at the peak of the Amiga's history, my endless hours of suffering with microsoft's monopoly operating system, to the point where i literally started to work as a tech because i knew that there was an endless supply of people with problems with it
How the fuck would being awake mean not knowing about backdoors?
My knowledge of backdoors deployed by companies like Intel is part of what makes me woke, retard
The more you don't know about shit like this, the more asleep you are
Oh man I didn’t expect a Lunduke response.
There’s truth to a lot of what you said.
I run OpenBSD and Slackware for similar reasons, but can’t avoid the Linux kernel issues with the latter
haha, i'm not familiar with Lunduke
i wish i could run freebsd but the hardware support is even worse, and bsd devs are crazy
I’ve accepted that I can’t agree politically, emotionally, even intellectually with anyone.
I can pick the best available tools and accept they too have reasons to protect what they do.
i agree with Dylan Thomas:
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
things weren't as bad when i was a kid, and they were still bad then, but it's got completely out of control these days
it is fortunately a principle of nature, described very well in the Tao Te Ching that things that become too full, eventually must tip over and empty out
but i still can't help but point it out because the worse it gets the more inured people seem to be come and it drives me crazy
Right up your alley with everything you’ve stated
haha, yeah, man, i really hate gnome since they started with version 4
idk why this guy likes firefox tho, i'm very happy with brave, it's one of the few fixtures in my kit that has been reliable for now going on 5 years, and it puzzles me why nobody else in browser dev has implemented a feature like Brave Sync. despite their shitcoinery they do actually seem to care about security and privacy... i'm glad they have managed to keep abreast of the endless attacks on users with their work, but hell i'd probably pay a subscription for a premium version that has some extra features and polish
