Lentils and chickpeas have more per-gram protein than chicken and mutton!?

Why do I see thousands of health/bodybuilding influencers saying exactly the opposite and pushing meat consumption instead of legumes on a daily basis then?

Debian bookworm (12) ships with version 525, so that’s all you’ll get officially.

Debian bullseye (11) is the one that comes with version 470. So clean-installing that is the best bet.

Or you can try to download a driver package from Nvidia’s website and try to manually install it in an overcomplicated process that involves patching your kernel with dkms. In my personal experience this almost always breaks things and is not recommended.

This is one of the drawbacks with Debian’s “stability”. Every stable version of Debian is a standalone, monolithic bundle of software that rarely allows for version changes.

If possible I’ll suggest you shift to Mint. It comes with a dedicated GUI driver manager for installing and switching multiple driver versions.

No, though it is weird that you feel like you should ask such nonsensical questions in public forums.

Bluesky and their AT Protocol sound much better.

They follow a federated model quite similar to Mastodon, except with better feeds powered by a variety of user-choosable post ranking and content discovery algorithms. It is the true federated Twitter/X clone.

What does it have over base Arch?

Read my comment again, slowly. What does “alienation in involvement” mean?

Nice quote. Won’t win over men who are shifting Right because of consistent targeted alienation in involvement from the Left

It very literally is, in South Korea’s case.

It’s Pichai’s handiwork from what I understand. He was in charge of it before becoming CEO according to Wikipedia.

Hey, they at least prioritise contributing upstream. Canonical is much worse.

The article is not at all answering the headline

Yes indeed, Sir. Your generation was the only Enlightened one, everyone younger than you is just a reel-addicted monkey incapable of reading.

Microsoft plays just like it has always played - with OEM contracts and being the default OS choice. Linux remains niche as long as Microsoft has this, unless they decide to roll out a mainstream distro themselves.

It’s not just to start an argument. I have tried so, so hard to shift to Linux. Nuked perfectly working setups just to take the jump to the “free” side (including Arch, btw).

It all only ended in frustration and disappointment. So everytime people toot “year of the Linux desktop” it only makes me laugh.

Some apps? “Very few” apps? Buddy, you either aren’t running much software at all or are delusional. Entire Desktop Environments to this day have ass fractional scaling that can’t render things correctly without eating up resources and making them look horribly blurry. Fonts look terrible and have bad kerning even with all anti-aliasing settings correctly set. Even colors are dull across the board by default. Not to mention there will always be random glitches and your graphics card fan will always be on full power unless you turn it off because of removed throttling even with official Nvidia drivers.

Just try using browsers and file managers between Linux distros and Windows on default settings on medium-tier, 5-year-old machines side-by-side, the difference will be starkly visible - from responsiveness and animations to general look quality.

Have you guys fixed your graphics stack to keep up with current High-DPI and HDR displays yet? No? LOL happy new year of the eyesore desktop to you too

You at least have to appreciate the effort that went into writing this

I have, unironically, never seen anyone using three monitors together on a PC in my life.

Literally all of them have removede color management and fractional scaling that blurs everything. It’s an eyesore.

I really, really want to use Linux for multimedia consumption but I can’t.

The best of them all, αcτµαlly pδrταblε εxεcµταblε.

Build once, run natively on literally any PC OS including Windows and MacOS!
