Shine on, you crazy diamond!
All these years, and I never realized the comma was there. I always heard it as "shine on you, crazy diamond", which didn't make any sense lol.

Thank you for this!
NVIDIA drivers 575.64 and 570.169 released for Linux

Doesn't look like this helps the issues I have with drivers above 550:

1. Screen tearing in VR headset.
2. Grey/white flickering in 2d games in at least Unity and Godot. No issues in 3d games though.
Did you report it? Things don't get fixed if you don't report them.
Ubuntu 25.10 goes all-in with Wayland, dropping support for GNOME on Xorg

Being seamless is definitely important, though wayland does seem pretty stable at this point?

I'm in a situation at the moment where my dad, who is in his 70s, has an old laptop

Windows 10 dropping support and tbh it runs awful on his laptop ANYWAY, when I tried linux mint on a usb drive it was night and day difference

He bought an ssd that I want to install linux on but I do worry about any issues he'll have at his age and I won't be around to help him troubleshoot

I'm going to put mint on it over ubuntu as it's alot better in terms of ease of use and stability imo
Did that with my father-in-law (Ubuntu). Went from calling us every week with something broken in windows to... we haven't heard from him in 5 years (just kidding, we see him all the time, just no computer issues anymore)
