  • System needs to be updated for steam to work. Advice?

    Jump

  • Due to the way Flatpak deals with nvidia drivers, you need to run flatpak update after any time the nvidia drivers update and you reboot the system. Thankfully you do not need to reboot after updating only flatpaks. Could not find a good source for this now, unfortunately.

    As for the "why?" - flatpak apps do not contain the userspace parts of the nvidia driver required to use the GPU properly, they come packaged as separate runtimes. These nvidia driver runtimes need to match the specific driver version you are currently running. If they don't match, flatpak downloads the right runtimes when updating.

  • Yep, reinvent it for educational purposes and then burn it with fire.

  • Is it? Honestly I don't care about it anymore, I've been opening everything from task bar icons and search for ages now.

  • Even worse - it looks like Google might be forced to sell Chrome to some AI company.

  • What does it matter? They all rely on Mozilla to do the hard work - maintenance and keeping up with web standards, and then just slap a couple of features and customizations on top of it. If Mozilla dies the current forks are dead in the water.

  • Mastodon can also replace the main FB feed. Matrix would be the closest alternative for Discord, but it has its share of problems.

  • Ubuntu explores replacing gnu utils with rust based uutils

    Jump

  • All the kernel Rust code is GPL, so you can leave that slippery slope alone. MIT licenced core utils just leave the door open to eventually using them in the BSDs as well.

  • Will wine ever be able to run anticheat?

    Jump

  • Then the answer is definitely not - at the very least Wine would need to simulate a very large part of the NT kernel.

  • Microsoft: "My PC"

    Jump

  • You should factor in that nowadays it is fairly normal for a single person to have multiple computers, so "My PC" is not specific enough anymore.

  • Can we please, PLEASE for gods sake just all agree that arch is not and will never be a good beginner distro no matter how many times you fork it?

    Jump

  • I'm not sure what a flatpak version could possibly do any better than the version I use.

    The official OBS flatpak supports more codecs and integrations than some distro packages.

    Stability is also a factor, especially on rolling or cutting edge distros. Fedora RPM release of Blender did not work for me at all with an nvidia GPU, for example.

  • If you have multiple monitors with different refresh rates, you'll notice immediately.

  • AFAIK no systemd -> no flatpak -> don't recommend to newbs. Say what you will about flatpak, but it is the official distribution method for some popular pieces of software and large GUI software generally works better through it (in my experience) - think Blender, GIMP etc.

  • If you're thinking about the recent thing, the real Go library (boltdb/bolt) was not compromised at all. The malware was in a similarly named package (boltdb-go/bolt), this is called "typosquatting".

  • Answered: Why you do need port-forwarding for Bittorrent

  • IME it substantially increased download speeds as well. There's stuff that I would not have gotten at all without port forwarding.
