Does it shutdown if you wait ten minutes? Maybe it’s a stuck process. After a timeout (don’t know what the default is) it should be killed.

nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-meta should be the package to install. It should pull in the gl and video packages.

Love my mom. When I was experimenting with the Pinephone and was only textable via SMS she begged me to get something that could run Signal.

First you should see if the nvidia module is loaded

lsmod | grep nvidia

If not, try to load it.

sudo modprobe nvidia

If it’s still not loaded after that check dmesg for errors.

Rookie mistake, now all your data is gone.

You need the -rf with unrm as well. -f because restoring / is a privileged operation and -r to recursively unrm everything.

I think with potentially lower userbase many foss developers might opt to get registered or stop supporting their apps.

I think they dropped support for 10xx era cards with 580. Maybe that’s it.

Ironic, Linux might have better WMR support than W.

The biggest issue nowadays is kernel level anti cheat. For that developers have to turn on Linux support (where it won’t be kernel level). You can see the status of games on that front at https://areweanticheatyet.com/.

If you’re ever inclined to to go back, OpenSUSE (at least Tumbleweed, not sure about Leap) still supports the old drivers. I’m starting to be in the same boat with my 150 MX.

Although I rarely use it. Putting the laptop to sleep often ends up in a crash with the nVidia drivers. Luckily I also have Intel onboard graphics in the thing.

My son was convinced to use Linux by wobbly windows.

Although he does have a second SSD now with Windows to be able to play the big popular multiplayer game of the day with his friends. But they are back on Minecraft often enough.

A little bit less because they could change it for one time. With binaries you could at least compare checksums.

Love KDE’s Dolphin. In the file properties you can just paste a hash and it will check the correct one for you.

Even if Cloudflare wasn’t a honeypot I would put in as many agents as possible as a three letter agency.

I’m using the cookbook plugin for Nextcloud.

I’ve got a Queen CD of one of their concerts. And at the part where they introduce all of the members it’s a little garbled at the point they mention “vocals”. At least when you play it in a normal CD player. As soon as I play it on something more advanced the garble is gone through the magic of error correction.

To this day I ask myself if it was intended or a real error.

I think the easiest is to get the thing onto some device. Pick something that annoys you and make it work better. There are so many parts to this it’s hard to recommend one. You have low level device drivers, the user interface in the form of DEs, or the apps themselves, either making the desktop apps work better or creating mobile ones.

You can also pick one of these things, find the related bugtracker and try to fix some easy looking bugs.

Wow. We had that once. Well, we were advised to not drink tap water at all. For us someone with a megaphone drove through every street and neighbours made sure that everyone got that.

Don’t host email from home. Many ISPs block that to combat spam and most email servers don’t accept mails from home-IPs for the same reason.

Most people will recommend not hosting email at all because it is a pain in the arse to set up so that other aervers actually accept your mails.

Even better when you’re already familiar with it. And I’d consider a media server to already be “selfhosting”.

Edit: Sorry, thought you were OP.
