  • My computers are pretty new. It’s the small things that really eat at you though.

    Glad I switched even with the teething pains with Nvidia and wayland. I can always fallback on x11 until the bug is squashed. Always new little problems popping up like Nvidia isn’t really tested well on the Wayland side.

    I know, I’m one of them😆🤙. I try not to be annoying though, hope you didn’t take it wrong. Edit: sorry, though this was a comment on my response to someone being weird about rust.

    If anyone truly cares about the community and want people to switch. They need to be understanding and willing to accept the fact some people have good reasons not to switch. Being pushy or insulting isn’t going to win them back and will most likely sour their perception of linux.

    I remember how much hate I got for using an Nvidia graphics card on linux. I also remember helping other people get Linux running on their graphics cards. There were so many toxic individuals that would scold new users for “supporting Nvidia, that evil company” despite the fact most people switching from windows probably already owned that Nvidia card.

    There were also others that long since given up because of all the hate they received. I want that to be uncommon and thankfully it seems to be more the case nowadays.







  • The dankest depths of archlinux wiki. Written by a guy so far gone, so war harden by reading through source code and poorly written technical documentation, ancient forums, leaving no stone unturned. A task so twisted it drives most men crazy.

    1% of arch users will ever need this wiki and few have gone through this Herculean task. For them, the first draft is enough, it’s all you can ask of a mind so twisted and broken. Alas it’s as unreadable as the source code and as hard to understand as the forum post from 2009.
