Dude. You are ranting.

Find help.

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.

Quite possible. Old fogey here 😉

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.

To be honest, i dont know.

It was some years ago. But the pain remains 😉

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.

Assumptions… Assumptions.

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.

I’ll interpret this as “it worked for you”. It did not work for me.

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.

They havent been since 10 years ago. Nvidia excempted.

A better use case for linux desktop could not have been invented.

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.

I partly disagree, complex algorithms are indeed a no, but for learning a new language it is awesome.

Currently learning Rust and although it cannot solve everything, it does guide you with suggestions and usable code fragments.

Highly recommended.

Imagine being so young and having so much hate in you.

I pity that woman.

Technically you are right.

The fat bike is considered to be a normal electric 25km/h bike (here in NL).

What changed (our view) on it was that some Chinese brands made it possible to raise the speed by doing a trivial change (either hardware or software) allowing speeds upto 45km/h.

In some extreme cases even higher.

Combine this with 12 year olds with soft skulls and you have the reason why the legal age is going to be raised to 16 years old and wearing a helmet.

And the old man in me screams: also require some training and a license for it.

And yes, I hate those things with a vengeance and have an opinion on everyone on such a vehicle. They are noisy, tent to break the speed limits and attract a certain type of people.

Old man signing off.

Although using the top row of keys does not cause you to accidentally hit keys above it.

Speaking for myself ofcourse but I am glad the EU has regulations for the use of personal data for targeting consumers, voters and for example patients.

You might translate this as “censorship” but I think of it as “responsible use”.

Over the past years (and certainly in the case of Xitter) it has become blatantly clear that people like Musk wipe their #ss with responsibility.
