People say that Nvidia just doesn't work right on Linux. I'd never know that except for everyone saying it. My desktop has Nvidia and all Linux distro I've tried on it are like perfectly fine. Yes for gaming also.

Hey Derry doll I'm just a merry fellow! In nature I dwell with the trees and green things. With my Goldberry I wonder the old wood and tend to the Withywindle! Come now little folk sing my songs! Derry werry old Tom is singgginggg now. Down the river and over the hill he wonders! Herry ho merry fellow!
Got a Nvidia card. Never had a issue on Linux.
Seriously people act like googling an error is the end of the world AND windows never ever makes a user troubleshoot. Like dude windows constantly fucks up and you gotta figure shit out
I like to wonder around the forest singing.
That and rock climbing but like traditional and aid climbing in the alpine. Most people lose interest when I start talking about various knots and their attributes in different situations.
I quit windows after I spent a few hours trying to get permission to delete a file I knew I didn't need but but windows just refused to allow even admin accounts to touch. Had to dig so deep into windows settings.
My blue jacket was woven from lost sheep's wool. Fatty Lumpkin ohh he told the sheep I'd treat them well and I'm exhange I got this coat! My yellow boots I crafted to always remind me off my beautiful Goldberry! Oh hey hoo my Goldberry with hair of Gold she the river womans daughter now my wife!
It's a good thing users never have to troubleshoot windows then
No I'll never deny that. Some things do only work in very specific environments. I'll also never pretend learning is a task with zero effort or that everyone is interested in doing. What bugs me is when people are dishonest about it. Linux is not impossibly difficult to use nor is Windows a sublime user experience with no friction.
Anticheat though ya that's fucked. Hate that. I'll admit I have a Windows partition solely for playing the few games that require it. Though haven't booted it in a year or so.
The first thing I installed windows on was an discarded office tower that I had to put new memory And hard drives in. Shit was ancient and specifically did not want anything but windows installed on it. Installed Linux anyway. Works great. No specific hardware
Old Tom here has a Plex server connected to sonarr, radarr, my torrent client, etc. This allows me to more or less search for something I want to watch and with a button click have it downloaded anywhere from a few minutes and up depending on the title's popularity. Ultimately it's actually a better experience than any streaming service.
I gotta get my new 20tb disk installed
It definitely is ya. I use mac for work and that shit sucks
Currently my server is at 1.5 TiB uploaded since last restart. Always on lol. I wonder how badly it impacts my energy bill. I just have a 1gig unlimited data connection. Figure I oughta use it haha . And yes obvious iso and open src software and the like.
Won't deny luck is involved. Everytime I turn any piece of technology on im amazed it works at all considering the fact it's all a cobbled together mess.
Ya prob similar. Someday I wanna measure but I'd have to get some tool for that. How do you measure?
Absolutely. Once you spend just a bit of time figuring out how config files work suddenly fixing problems on and maintaining your Linux system is far easier than windows. Not hidden behind layers of bad UI that doesn't work. Just edit the file. Restart the process.
The truly magical things are hitches. Those things look like they should just slip off and come undone and yet I'll hang off a clove hitch all day
Nice. I do be playing with my ropes whenever I'm board at work. Oh boring meeting whip out my rope.
The name doesn't lie ha
My next build as it stands will be AMD. of course who knows what will be good by the time I get to do that.
Ya that's about right. Next step is from that live Linux disc install Linux.
There's this thing I notice. If windows asks you to learn something or put up with some BS it's seen as the cost of business, reasonable, or simply not even noticed. If Linux requires you to learn something, like read one article about which distro might work best for you, it's seen as an insurmountable difficulty or an absurd ask.
