Quoting: CatKillerThat's the opposite of what anyone wants.

Better an untested linux build than no linux build.

Quoting: Jarmerall models out of stock in the usa still.

I'm gonna just keep saying it:

BURST BURST BURST!!! LETS HAVE A BURST PARTY!

This will likely be the new landscape indefinitely. Gaming and client devices will have to battle for scraps as they get pushed out to far orbit from the interests of industry. I think we are entering a period of time where innovation in software is going to define successes in gaming and in end user devices.

There is a goldmine of RAM sitting around in e-waste. Who is good with BGA soldering?

Honestly, they should just mainline LMDE and drop the Ubuntu derived version. Mint team spend way too much time correcting for Ubuntu's interesting choices.

GCN Hawaiian Islands still going in 2026. AMD graphics cards on Linux can basically be divided into two categories; Post-GCN 1.0 and the before times.

I refused to hop on the discord train since its initial rise and this is just further vindication for me.

Gamers should never have abandoned mumble which is self hostable, open source and IMO superior for the purposes of simple accessible game chat.

I'll be the one to say it:

Consider all those who got gassed up on the cyclical $NEW_WINDOWS bad streak who tried out Linux on their gaming computers, only to feel overwhelmed or burned or whatever by the differences (of which newbies will always make mountains out of mole hills) who then promptly return to the familiarity of Windows.

I suspect we'll see another small decrease next month too.

I've been having loads of fun in Valheim. The game feels complete and polished as far as I'm concerned. Not sure what they're waiting for to finally drop "early access".

Quoting: scaineDuckduckgo did a survey [External Link] asking their userbase if they wanted AI features. They closed the poll after a week or so, 175K votes counted, and 90% said no, they don't want AI.

Yes, it's very skewed - DDG's userbase is privacy-focused. But "tiny but super vocal butt-hurt minority" is a shitty and antagonistic way to describes people's perfectly valid dislike of this planet-burning technology.

Asking in good faith: If non-local AI features were able to operate in an ecologically viable way, would you then not dislike AI? Are there other aspects about ML/AI that keep you from engaging with it?
