They could still blacklist certain entries, it’s nog like they don’t have that control. Bazzite just launched its own alternative to Discover called Bazaar that hides things like the Steam flatpak that will fluff your day up. Whether the DE should be doing that sort of moderation is another question entirely, but I think the answer is clear if it’s a straight up scam.

If leaving a child in a car was a crime, you’d think they’d charge that up front?

Now the 20-year-old mother has been charged with one felony count of involuntary manslaughter and two felony counts of willful cruelty to a child, according to court records.

Is it not a specific crime in California/US to leave a child locked in a car?? We don’t fluff around with that in Australia. Also have exceptions to property damage laws for bystanders breaking windows.

I believe if you tell the downloader you have a Nvidia 10-series card then it’ll give you proprietary drivers that still work on newer cards. I have a 10-series and haven’t had these issued fwiw.

That doesn’t mean it’s good they’re deprecating cards to do it. They were still selling GT1030s new until relatively recently, and the GTX1080 is a perfectly workable card.

If you think open versions are cool, how about them just open-sourcing the Maxwell & Pascal drivers? Oh, that’s right, they won’t because the “special sauce” is in the driver, not the card BIOS like it is for the Turing & up families.

What’s TDE?

Is this a reference to the most recent pewdiepie video? lmao

No, I just don’t want to explain to someone who’s clearly just baiting. But you do you and pay 3x as much because it’s made in america.

Vibes.

This isn’t how you get non-tech gamers to* switch to Linux and honestly, this attitude needs to die. Do you want Windows to always dominate? Because this is how you get Windows to always dominate.

It’s just jingoistic drivel, same as all of Trump’s China crap. Implying the phone has better privacy because it’s made in the US.

New users find the terminal very intimidating, I’ve seen that come up time and again. It’s kind of the whole point of Bazzite.

If you’re already learning terminal to install software though, at that point you can use a distrobox, install whatever you want in it, and then export the application to your usual application menu. It’ll launch the container in the background when you start the application, and shut it down automatically too. It’s a little slower than a usual launch but it’s still just a stripped down container so it’s fine.

The implication that Chinese-made goods are less private. Also I’m pretty sure most people speculate that the Trump phone is just a rebranded one of these? Guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

I did too, so, thanks, now I’m cackling at this racist bullshit:

Or, hear me out, you could install Bazzite and avoid all those terminal steps that are intimidating for new, non-tech savvy linux users.

I think you’re seeing the wrong causation when it comes to enshittification. FOSS licenses prevent that sort of thing from happening. Linux is already, by far and away, the most popular server OS so consumers moving to it isn’t going to make it worse.

I dunno, maybe be less of a hipster bestie?

Oh absolutely, it really upsets me that they never dropped the prices down after covid supply issues were resolved. They were really proud of being accessible price-wise once upon a time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The power constraints are more important to most than the size constraints honestly.

OBDII exists and is reasonably open.

Your monitor always needs to be plugged into the graphics card. If you plug it in via the motherboard, then your GPU is doing nothing, as it can’t backfeed to that motherboard connector. CPUs often have their own graphics built-in, and that’s what yours would have been using instead.
