Linguistically: yes, and it’s typically attributed to a working memory constraint.

Arch people tend to want people to know they use Arch (btw). You’ll also find a lot of posts about getting Arch working.
Debian people tend to be too busy doing other things on their computers besides getting them working, so you’ll hear about it less.
(Important: I’m not dumping on either distro here. Some people, myself included, like Arch exactly because it’s fun to play with and set up. Debian’s older packages tend to mean a more stable system. Use what you like.)

221·9 days agoThe cost to go with a movie with one friend is around $30-35 where I live. This assumes buying no concessions.
The cost to buy that movie on a physical format (assuming it releases on one) is $20-30 depending on whether that format is DVD or Blu-Ray.
A lot of folks right now could not afford either option. But even for those who can, the math doesn’t math on movie theaters.

21·10 days agoMost games run better on a fresh Windows install than on a fresh Linux install.
Not true.
they generally don’t work on Linux.
Also not true. Again, it’s clear you’ve never tried it.

21·12 days agoI mean, I’d read the post you’re commenting on a bit more carefully before thinking DLSS is a good thing…
And it really isn’t as bad as all that. I suspect you’ve never tried Linux gaming.
In any event, Steam Machine is only one device. Steam Deck is already quite successful, so it stands to reason that the next gen one will be as well. (And less relevant, but Steam Frame is also looking like it could be a knockout hit for VR)
I pressed it. Just pressed it again. Turns out it doesn’t show up on Lemmy. Lol
The fact that there’s even a whiff of Kamala running again is great evidence that we are so fucked and will continue to be so fucked.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•App doesn't let me use my 32 char passwordEnglish
17·12 days agoYeah OK, I just had to read that twice to see you’re right.
The title is ambiguous (or perhaps vague, more accurately).
“doesn’t let me use my 32 char password” can be interpreted as:
-
it does not allow passwords of 32 characters in length, regardless of composition
-
it does allow passwords of 32 characters in length, which should be sufficient with or without special characters
In one reading, the special character requirement is the issue. In the other, the length.
Yay for English.

341·12 days agoIt could change relatively quickly though. Consider that Valve’s devices are all ultimately AMD devices. If Valve’s bet pays off, then those numbers should change (to what extent, I don’t know).
The Linux gaming community in general (which small as it is, is growing) is definitely shifting AMD. On the nvidia side are a bunch of driver woes and poor support. Meanwhile AMD’s drivers are literally baked into the kernel. No contest for ease.
This could all be wrong. Definitely. But the optimist in me sees a glimmer of hope depending on where the enthusiast community goes, how successful Valve is with their coming machines, etc.
Orrrrr… The whole PC enthusiast community dies because AI keeps driving prices into the sky and it never recovers in any meaningful way.
