Arch on my desktop and laptop, Debian stable goes on everything else.

Corporate support of development, and I’m not just talking about Redhat and SUSE. Hell, Microsoft is a major contributor to the kernel.

Behold children, the ancestral lands of the strawman.

So like the OP, then.

Please provide the room with a definition of “meme.”

It’s honestly a shame. Indianapolis is a really fun smaller city that’s well laid out for visitors. It’s just swimming in a sea of suck.

God, Indiana sucks so much.

Fair enough. Time will bear out the truth.

Economy of scale is different from groundbreaking novel developments in the field.

China is also the runaway leader in false discoveries and purposeful fraud in academia.

Well, it’s a Chinese lab claiming to have it. So, I guess I’ll just wait for the proof.

Borked is Destiny 2 and Wildstar (whose servers are permanently offline)

So this is basically just a recurring donation like a lot of us do for other projects? That’s fine. If it’s testing the waters for a product-line bifurcation, a la pfSense, that’s not fine at all.

They’re BIOS locked and only accept Windows keys. On the plus side. Tuxedo is developing Linux notebooks with the same powerful, low-power ARM chips.

Because on here, just like on Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit, people want to feel self superior without actually interrogating their own behavior.

I mean, Gnome suck imho. But, it’s easier to learn than dealing with issues that Mint causes due to drivers and game compatibility.

PopOS! and Endeavor are my two recommendations for newbies. The former for fresh to Linux folks and the latter for those with some experience.

In China, they’re the same picture.

All Chinese companies are the CCP. That’s how the system works.

MacOS’s memory scheduler is leaps and bounds better than what Windows uses. It’s more apt to compare the RAM on a machine running MacOS to one running a common Linux distro. Windows needs more RAM than the other two by two to three times because it’s fuckterrible at using it.

I’ve run Plex servers on Mac Minis (M1). Docker on MacOS runs well finally — the issues that were everywhere a couple of years ago are resolved.

It ran very well on the hardware. The OP of this post is right, 8gb is not enough in 2024; however I would also wager that the vast majority of commenters have not used MacOS recently or regularly. It is actually very performant and has a memory scheduler that rivals that found on GNU/Linux. Apple’s users aren’t wrong when they talk about how much better the OS is than Windows at using memory.
