Linux is like that spider swatting meme where the spider gets squished, and then it explodes into a million smaller spiders that run every direction.

Steam Machine, Steam Deck, Steam Frame. Pick your level of console.

1: WINE and Proton 2: Wayland switchover 3: Linux kernel features and fixes

That means nothing if your latency spikes or some packets drop at the moment you need to click and not hold, or move the mouse precisely and drop.

1: You’re not yet ready for Arch and Arch derivatives (CachyOS, EndeavorOS, etc.)

2: Fedora KDE

3: Fedora KDE

Linux Mint is good, but it, like Ubuntu and Debian, are “vintage” linuxes that are very behind on software versions. Things are moving very fast right now with a lot of back end linux stuff changing rapidly to support more people and programs coming off Windows. Fedora is the best “middle ground” in that it’s not Arch bleeding edge, but it is also not Debian stable “vintage”.

You do need to install RPM Fusion for Fedora to go from nvidia open source driver to nvidia proprietary driver, though.

KDE is a fully featured desktop that will give you familiarity with Windows-like layouts. Some other desktops, like GNOME, tend to reinvent the wheel and have very different desktop workflows. You’ll have to boot the live discs / sticks and poke around to understand what I mean.

To make a boot disc, use an 8GB+ usb stick and rufus - https://rufus.ie/

TLC is the technology, not the manufacturer. TLC means three bits per cell, versus QLC which has 4 bits per cell. Every extra bit the cell has to store exponentially reduces its write cycle.

Let’s hope not

On the upside, we consumers get to have the superior TLC SSDs (better write durability).

There is a functional difference, though. Roguelikes start you from Zero everytime. Roguelites give you meta progression that you can bring into your next run.

“The Paper!”

local ai models you run on your own machine are better for your privacy, even if they’re nowhere as intelligent.

The problem is malvertising and tracking. Despite Google’s best efforts, ads that deploy malware still exist, and so does ads that track what page/site you’re on to profile you.

Fedora has been implementing an optional ML API. It’s up to you if you install it or not.

slap the tailscale ips into your dns entries then. I do that.

Yes, also Tailscale already provides hostname dns for every device on your tailscale net.

Yeah, it technically works, but requires telling ROCm you have a 6800 XT instead

Time to leave the good phone at home and use a super cheap burner on an esim when out in public

As someone who remotes home frequently, no, the experience is not quite right. Packet drop and latency cause lots of input errors and misclicks. Sometimes the local internet decides not to carry your packets, and sometimes even connecting over vpn doesn’t.

You do not want a cloud desktop. You want a physical desktop and supplement with cloud services you can’t run locally.

RX 7600, comes in 8gb and 16gb variants. GL getting anything that isn’t ancient for under $200
