so idk...

yeah but proton and wine NEVER worked

I'm kinda jealous then lmao

it worked fine on both arch and debian for me

it's ass and I do not recommend that for your main PC usage

I've had situations where I had to either wait for package fix or compile it myself

Yeah, Debian and ArchAnything are two different stories. Usually Debian stable releases are just that - stable. Arch is trying to be bleeding edge and fucks something up something more often than not

it's closed source yea but i never had an issue with it. only one time when i just installed debian i had to reinstall it because i fucked up something and after that it worked fine and didn't lose anything important

It fucked up my os on three separate occasions. All of those were either Arch or arch based distro tho

Yeah, fuck Nvidia driver, all my homies hate nvidia drivers

drivers and cuda worked fine for me

fucking nvidia

also another reason why linux is annoying for me

To use gpu passthrough you either need two gpus or run host OS without GUI

yea i'll just get a shitty gpu for that

you need a secondary gpu: one for linux and one for kvm, or use a script that removes gpu from linux and connects it to kvm but idk if it works, never tried it, looked sketchy

exclusively using virtual machines to easily snapshot whenever shit breaks because i couldn;t be bothered

At least how it was few years back

i might do what someordinarygamers does. just everything in KVM with gpu passthrough for gayming

I suggest Ubuntu, Mint and Fedora for anyone who want to start using linux

manjaro is arch based

it is and it's unstable mess. Like I said, I'm still using it, because I don't want to spend my weekend on reinstalling and reconfiguring my OS

i was NEVER able to get some good windows software running with wine and NO games worked with steam proton.
across manjaro, endevaour and debian btw

use something with standard releases and you're golden lmao

lol i never look at those

lol

theres a reason all of those "unix porn" screenshots all have an uptime of 5 minutes in the neofetch

Easily doable, just don't use meme distros. Anything based on Arch is straight up wrong decision. I'm on Manjaro currently, but only because I can't be bothered to reinstall

i would switch to linux now but i need a computer that actually works

i'll stick with windows 10 ltsc for long

as soon as win10 runs out of support i'm switching to linux

yeah i saw it but took it with a grain of salt. but thats what we're talking about right? does TPM allow for this kind of censorship?

iirc currently the main concern is that with the chip they can prevent you from installing anything other than windows on machine you've bought with preinstalled Windows. If that's the case, then we're one step closer to Windows Subscription Service ™. Don't quote me on that though, last time I've read about this was at least a year ago

read the article i've sent. tpm is used for a different thing

i guess microsoft could always implement a checksum check for each file and a database for pirated movies but that wouldn't make much sense and tpm wouldn't do anything in that situation

basically if you're not fucking around on vps and don't put randos in the line of fire you're free to do whatever

this looks like a useful resource if you want to see how tpm is used: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/wi...ation-protection/tpm/how-windows-uses-the-tpm

They don't give a shit about those and they only provide dedicated servers

SoYouStart, that's the one

just go with any of their sister providers, either Kimsufi or the other one, uh...

you're shits gone at the first DMCA complaint

apparently people use them for seedboxes but like, why

ovh is providing pretty good ddos protection actually

i can't imagine that OVH does too well when it comes to censorship resistance

Nope, saw like two youtube videos and read one article back when W11 was a hot topic, but I'm not all that interested in that to be honest, since I'm not using windows anymore

you got a good source for how TPM would allow for the restriction of "unauthorized" software? i dont know anything about this

I worked for them for one month and saw some inner workings. Don't remember the details though

and lets be real, if you don't have/can't afford good DDoS protection and shit like that, literally anyone could just decide that they don't want your shit online anymore.
