  • I’m sorry; AI was trained on the sole sum of human knowledge… if the perfect human being is by nature some variant of a psychopath, then perhaps the bias exists in the training data, and not the machine?

    How can we create a perfect, moral human being out of the soup we currently have? I personally think it’s a miracle that sociopathy is the lowest of the neurological disorders our thinking machines have developed.


  • Sure, I’ll try OpenSUSE!

    Tumbleweed is a bit of a spooky name for a distro implying that a gentle breeze sends it, but y’know

    Linux Mint as someone suggested, I’ve ran a long time ago for college on an ancient laptop, and it’s an extreme stable OS, similar to Windows 2000 Pro. I can’t remember it crashing or freezing even once on me, and the Thinkpad T42 has an anemic processor., which I ran with the Conservative Governor


  • I’m actually a little scared of running Linux on modern, fast hardware.

    How is multi-GPU driver support?

    My main machine is a 900 TFlops compute monster (4 GPUs) running ROCM on Windows, and the last time I’d tried Manjaro on Desktop, it seized up for unknown reasons.

    I’ve got asynchronous monitors - 1440p@165Hz main display and 4K@85Hz flipped vertical for a side monitor. Occasionally, I plug in a projector which is 1080p, mirrored to the 4K, but flipped horizontal.

    I’m not sure what I’d done wrong because it works perfectly on my 11 year old Z575 (Debian+KDE there).

    What distro would you recommend for an extremely fast/high RAM machine? I’ve got 128GB of main system memory, and 4TB of M.2 for a system disk running at 7.6 gigabytes/second actual/real-world RW I/O.


  • I had something like this happen at a corp I once worked at. The CTO said they were going to outsource their entire datacenter and support staff to India.

    I literally laughed in his face and obviously, got fired (always have 6-8 months of salary as an emergency fund, ahem-).

    I won’t name the company but when half the Internet went down and a few major services? Yeah, it was that asshat driving and running between the datacenters realizing people in Bangladesh can’t do shit for you physically.

    It’s like that graph: “Say we want to fuck around at a level 8, we follow this axis, and we’re going to find out at around a level 7 or 8”

    Well this explains why GNOME is so hard to use. It was designed explicitly by foot fetishists, so it’s easy to use with your feet. That’s why the taskbar is at the top of the screen instead of the bottom. Your feet would cover it when they’re on the laptop keyboard otherwise.

    I tried Arch once and they use Pacman for everything.

    It’s like Pacman -sY to install. Makes no sense.

    At least the AUR is cool.

    One day, Linux will have a nice, unified, polished application portal (not store because god forbid we see a LINUX APP STORE).

    For everything else there’s git.

    Git clone Make Pacman -sY lethal company Sudo chmod +x ./home/user/games/lethal_company.x86_64

    “Hold on guys I swear it works, Linux is just better, hold on”

    AUR Proton_EasyAntiCheatHooks Man -k Nvidia-Propietary ./etc/Xserver.conf --display one --mode C1B3 --vsync off Sudo reboot -now
