I mean… is that what you want ?

There isn’t a single piece of software that I use that makes me think I should upgrade my 5600. Not a single game fully utilizes it (on 1440p res)
Older hardware is fine.
As someone who didn’t see their parents throughout the school year: Kinda sucked.
I know a hardware guy that lives on a farm and uses raspberry pi for his garden hoses.
Do you ever make install for minutes just to have it crash at the end because you missed a completely random C dependency?
Why not? I feel like lemmy is overall a less restrictive environment.
I worked today and have O commits.
I wish it was like this. In reality Grub’s suicidal tendencies catch me off guard.
When I was a noob I used arch for work (btw) and grub constantly broke in dire times.
Now I no longer use grub.
I’ve had bad mental health breaks but this is still a good outcome overall.
Imagine being in poor mental state and still having to work, I’d take the break any day.
You do you but skirts and kneesocks… 😋
Memes that hurt the image of Linux makes me sad.
This is the classic mass effect dialogue option meme where you pick a mellow option and then the MC lashes out.
A: “No.” B: “that’s a great idea”
You pick a. Then: “Why would you ever suggest that idea, that’s horrible, I want you out of my group!”
I don’t know a single ui person or artist that gives a single f about open source.
I think as a dev you naturally grow to respect the open source space because of how much you take from it.
I would love to be proven wrong though
It’s not only that but wifi protocols are very complicated and if you look up datasheets you’ll likely just find documents in chinese.
Easier said than done. I did want to look into writing wifi drivers but imo these are the most difficult drivers to write code for.
Unsupported hardware is a really big issue when you encounter it. I used a WiFi driver for a broadcom USB Wi-Fi card and it was one of the worst experiences I’ve had. Constant disconnections. Sometimes it wouldn’t even connect. Learned a lot about systemd, network manager, services but really was painful because I used that computer for work.
You need to if your device isn’t officially supported. This is pretty common for USB wifi cards.
There’s a DB of officially supported cards , and if your card isn’t there then you have to look up for a driver.
Usually they’re fairly easy to find with just googling.
Won’t ever be because we’re in the stage where everything is marketed as much as possible.it would take a massive cultural and political shift to change that.
