  • Russia, as imperialistic aims it may have, have no intentions, not capabilities of invading Poland, Lithuania or Finland.

    Hey, I’ve heard that before in 2014. You know the three day invasion?

    And because I really think you are a troll: the best part is, NATO has yet to set foot on the ground, while Russia is running to rogue countries like NK.

    Besides, Ukraine being “awkwardly neutral” did not stop Putler from invading, did it?

    You use a lot of words, but a foundation of your “facts” are blatantly missing.

    Don’t know what it is in this thread. “It did not work for you so you must have done something wrong”?

    See my thread where some dude says it should just work (when he is just doing LTS kernel updates only and not updating in general).

    Comments simply blaming the user based on their limited usecase are hardly constructive.

    Bleeding edge in Debian? I was not even using the “testing” release of Debian.

    If your point is that it’s fine for a company to get their stuff out there in a timely fashion, that company just sucks balls in my opinion.

    Just FYI I am perfectly fine with you having your workarounds and (apparently different) opinion.

    I expected some basic civility and more constructive tone of words. But if you start blaming me as a user for something basically ALL other vendors are coping with just fine, thats where the discussion stops with me.

    I am definitely not against linux (daily user myself). And honestly, people like you don’t make Linux more attractive of an option.

    Have a good one.

    You have adapted your way of working around the fact that it can break:

    1. Not auto updating
    2. Checking if it is an LTS

    I call that way of not updating “annoying” and insecure IMO.

    Other vendors don’t have this issue.

    My conclusion: steer clear of Nvidia.

    Debian.

    Well, every kernel update is overstated maybe, but I had my fixed workflow of dropping to text mode and reinstalling the latest drivers from vendor, which is annoying as hell.

    Dropped the card after meddling about for almost a year. Been using Linux since slackware was still hip & happening.

    My experience with Nvidia (granted, 3 years old experience):

    Going with the closed source driver means stuff breaking each kernel update. Going with the opensource driver (while it may work for you): not everything is supported.

    So its not just “people being annoyed with Nvidia” i’d say.




  • I’ve been using hetzner for more than 10 years now. Fun facts:

    • They have an API to create infrastructure
    • They have a terraform provider which can provide infra on hetzner.
    • This storage addition is a very logical one, after loadbalancers, floating IP’s and so on. Very curious to know what will be next!

    They have a long term vision and are very cost effective, while having good support.


  • I agree, although some messages are still cryptic for a newbie like me, but thats maybe more the person on the chair than the compiler 😇.

    I’d estimate copilot to be correct in only 10% of the time, solving a situation like that. Most of the time the solution suggested is also wrong, but just differently.

    Having said that: sometimes (small chance, 1% maybe) the solution is spot on.

    AI mainly helps with the initial syntax and on language constructs and for that it is awesome.

    Not to pretend I know it all, but have actively been using Linux on desktops and normal laptops for years now and I do have to agree.

    Those old Macs are actually quite hard to get working right (fans, touchpad etc).

    It is not impossible, but it takes quite an investment.

    But Macs aside, nowadays a lot of desktops ánd laptops install flawlessly though.
