Ziglin ,

I know it's very efficient and small (I believe it needs less than 80mib of ram with nothing else running) and that they leave out some of the basic commands like man to save space. Maybe they wrote more minimal versions of some coreutils?

Ziglin ,

I specified that it would be running nothing (other than the init system which is the tty). Thereby the amount of ram required should not vary by much.

Ziglin ,

Yup Just delete all binary data from your disks, including the bios and get a quantum computer that you somehow program and control by hand.

Ziglin ,

How about a 'Just because we use it doesn't mean it's any good' tier?

Ziglin ,

On a laptop you bring everywhere I think it's ok if you seriously think somebody might try to steal your data. On a desktop computer with the drive screwed onto the motherboard who's going to steal it?

Ziglin ,

Best bit is Windows couldn't boot for me either (all bios entries were empty). I'm glad I had a live USB laying around.

Ziglin ,

Sounds about right. In my case I think it didn't even wipe the whole thing.

I just don't understand why they share EFI partitions.

Ziglin ,

That friend sounds like they were pretty stupid or they just had an unrelated issue at the same time.

Ziglin ,

Hah the movies I watch never existed in HDR!

Ziglin ,

On my phone yes but monitors are way too expensive for the effect it has.

Although a terminal with a completely black background sounds pretty cool…

Ziglin ,

I'm guessing it has legacy bios which then means you need a cd/floppy.

Ziglin ,

I think most Linux users (including me) are just cheap and don't even have hdr. One of my two monitors has a dent in frame and has one DVI port and power. I think a lot of the maintainers are similar and therefore don't prioritise problems they don't have yet.

I think it's a real shame how bad the Nvidia experience can be but at this point I've found that if the drivers from the arch repos don't work nicely the flatpak ones usually will. Wayland is of course still a problem for now but hopefully not for long.

Ziglin ,

Maybe a social interaction manual would be an idea.

I honestly try my best to be helpful in most cases but if were something related to a specific program I would suggest reading the manual because otherwise I'll be the one doing it for them. If necessary I'll show them where to find the manual and how I normally look through it.

Ziglin ,

Not that the HDMI forum would allow that in oss at all... But I get the point. Honestly though if the stuttering goes away on Wayland I personally won't have any more issues.

Ziglin ,

Sorry but a tty is just a teletype terminal, using a tty could just as easily mean using kitty, alacritty, gnome terminal or the one you get if you were to use your shell as an init system (not sure what that would be called). You don't switch from a tty to Alacritty, as you're still just in a tty.

Also to my knowledge kitty has hardware acceleration too.

Sorry to be nitpicking but I think knowing that tty isn't just what you get when you press ctrl+alt+f2 is important for a deeper understanding of the operating system.

Ziglin ,

No I think it's a daemon they summoned. Maybe the notification daemon?

Ziglin ,

Oh no, something wrong and your password just got echoed into the terminal!

Ziglin ,

I think BSD should not be excluded from this chart.

Ziglin ,

I would assume so but it seems like it could be problematic for some compatibility as you're not switching users and weird options being passed into something like sudo or run0 seem dangerous to me if they have different ways of parsing the input (which they might not).

Ziglin ,

But I don't think those have the same kernel.

Ziglin ,

So if I'm understanding correctly they now let you type a command to open a new window to check your credentials (like polkit?) instead of asking for it in the tty? And the only new thing is that you can elevate your privileges in an existing tty (before you would need to start a separate admin terminal right?)

Ziglin ,

It works for me on i3 which is an X11 wm but I think it's only firefox.

Ziglin ,

Sounds like it works in firefox by default. If it working in other apps is a requirement look for a de that supports it globally. Or perhaps find an app that does it. Honestly does seem like something that could be done a driver from my very limited driver knowledge.

Ziglin ,

I'm in 5/8 of those, yikes.

Ziglin ,

Uh oh you've made people furious.

Ziglin ,

If I understand correctly Nvidia isn't doing anything to do with explicit sync, it just doesn't support implicit sync which is currently what Wayland uses because we don't have explicit sync yet. Explicit sync would work with existing Nvidia drivers.

Ziglin ,

I'm very sorry but I don't like your k, it looks like a |e

Ziglin ,

Am I invited here?
I use arch based distro btw.

Ziglin ,

Why pay Microsoft though?
