  • Yeah, saw the previous post. I'd argue that is a pretty good use-case for AI. Throw together a quick reference, see how you feel about it before putting 2 dozen hours into making the image yourself, just to find out the concept doesn't work. Just make sure you do the work yourself at some point lol

  • What would it take for you to switch to Linux?

    Jump

  • I've been considering it for a while, mostly out of fear of the unknown. My worst case is something like I put Linux on, it breaks or messes up, I have no internet access and USB doesn't work. So I can't make a new Win10 ISO and I'm stuck shuttling back and forth between a working PC and mine, having to chase down issues and little details to get it working again. Is it a founded fear? Probably not, but it's just the details of it. Like I just got some decent OLED monitors, and there seems to be some issues with HDR support in some distros, namely the one I was thinking of using. I have an Azeron controller I use because of some hand issues, and I worry that won't work (although I'm almost certain it's fine). I do sim racing stuff, and I want to be sure all the peripherals work as intended without spending 6 hours chasing drivers and force feedback settings. Some pedals I want to get seem to have the same issue on Linux. It's just little things like that, where I have a thing working how I want it right now, and a swap to Linux makes it work, but missing something because it's poorly supported or limited in some way.

    I'm probably going to do it and just dual boot; but even then, I have some games that rely on mods (skins and tracks, etc). Do I need to re-download everything into a new partition? Or can Linux natively just use the pre-existing folder without issue? And it's a niche game, so unless I find one of the dozen people who have migrated to Linux on that game, I'm in the dark.

  • This works across streaming platforms! Peacock is a reliable one, nothing there is really worth watching, but what if you wanted to watch The Office again?

  • Someone else responded that does some sim racing. It has limits, but it seems it's game specific and largely by dev choice. More confidence than I expected, but I have liked at literally nothing for the process yet. Free weekend though, so hopefully 48 hours is enough lol

  • Yeah iRacing was my worry. I haven't played it at all yet cause it's just so much to get started, but that's a goal, so it's kinda at the forefront of my thoughts. I have a Moza R5 with just the stock pedals, but I have been eyeing some Simsonn pedals something fierce. How do you like them?

    And awesome, I'll look into that! I'm sure I'm gonna have questions, but from what I've seen, the Moza stuff is pretty plug and play. I have a bunch of random peripherals I need to look into tho

  • I'm switching on Saturday.

    Jump

  • It's all fairly new; within the last year. 9800x3d, 9070xt, and then the peripherals are all I'd say also new. So that also plays a part. I'm sure I will be fine, it's just the unknown of it all, and Linux has a (imo deserved) stigma in its online support. I think the big worry is I feel like I have to learn it all, then change, instead of learning as I go. Just a lot at once, but I think it's about time to learn.

  • I'm about there as well. I'm worried tho, cause I do some Sim Racing and some games don't support Linux, and I'm worried the equipment won't work. I know dual boot is always an option, but at a certain point, I fear I'll just default to Windows because it's what I know.

  • What is something you dont care to understand or "get"?

    Jump

  • No, I agree, and I'm not saying I dislike it for a good reason or even a vastly informed reason; I've watched a few, and they felt varied in content and style and tone (at least to me). I'm just saying sometimes it's as simple as "just don't like it". I don't like eggplant either; had it prepared a few different ways. I don't think it's that I just haven't found that magical preparation or mix of seasonings or whatever; just not a fan.

  • Marco Rubio invoked a medieval antisemitic trope in justifying war with Iran

  • This is the part that is difficult to explain to people. I don't think Jewish people run some shadowy conspiracy org that secretly keep pressure on things they disagree with. I do think some powerful (rich) people high up in the Israeli govt and in various powerful positions around the world (private and public) use their massive riches to influence things in the favor of Israel. Your Jewish neighbor isn't meeting up monthly with the local chapter to discuss world domination. This aligns with some non-Jewish players (Thiel a prime example) who has his own motives, but sees the money in play and acts accordingly.

    This isn't markedly different than other groups with rich, powerful people spread around, but the goals are quite a bit different.

  • If I can get my Xbox game library and saved progress onto the PC, great. Sucks I've double bought some titles but whatever I guess.

  • How do you describe death to a person who's from a world where nothing ever dies?

  • It's been enjoyable so far! Nice change of pace from what I've been reading. I just want Ryland to curse one time. He's too wholesome.

  • My state fucking did it to him. Sent the super delegates; in what was generally a state with some Dem support, given the right circumstances and candidate, there is basically 0 hope for a Dem to come out now in a federal position.

  • This is a not unheard of scenario regardless of who comes out of the DNC. Voter suppression efforts are pretty far wide spread rn. Hard to predict the landscape in 2028, but it doesn't look great right now
