If you are working on a pi, you have to pay attention to the architecture that a distro supports.

As someone that tends to learn most by doing. Most of these comments are excellent my only suggestion is to try it. Most Linux distros come with live images which you dont need to install to test out.

Just download the ISO and put it on a USB and then boot from the usb. You can even make a multiboot USB with ventoy.

Or you can use distrosea to demo a distro in a browser.

I also highly suggest using the arch wiki for research. It will probably go into much more depth than you need at first but it will also not dumb things down or over simplify things for you so you might actually learn. Take this doc on what a DE is for instance, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Desktop_environment

Well for games it kind of depends on the specific DRM used and how exactly the game utilities it. DRM means digital rights management but there is a wide variety of DRM and ways it’s used.

Some DRM might limit the amount of computers software can be installed on, some might verify the contents to ensure none of the files were changed, some might authenticate with a server before starting up, and some might have kernel level access to read your RAM and log your keystrokes.

I’d also like to add that the yakuza series used for this picture are great games that now come with DRM, unless you buy them on GOG.

I bought a big bundle of the games through steam on sale and Yakuza: Like a Dragon came with DRM on steam. Buy on GOG, its the same game but DRM free.

I should have waited for the GOG sale, now I might pirate it to play the game I bought without DRM.

My first thought: That’s what short links and QR codes are for.

My second thought: Heinz says sorry for ketchup QR code that links to porn site

This but my wife is 100% green and I am 100% yellow

But, you know if a business changes to dynamic pricing and their next quarterly numbers shows that the vast majority of people didn’t swallow it, and revenue is hugely down, they would undo it in a second.

You would be right if we assume that

1. The people leading these companies are making informed data driven decisions.
2. Companies majorly made money through selling goods/services

However once a company is a certain size or in the correct position it’s more about showing a growth potential to investors, then actually proffiting from selling goods/services. Investors is really how these companies make money now. I’m not an economist so I’m not sure if this is still technically capitalism when the majority of profits come straight from investors but to me it sounds much more like a ponzi scheme.

My point being is that in a best case scenario, a nationwide boycott could take place and a company makes $0 gross income. But they can still profit if they can convince their investors that they are taking the right steps to position themselves in “this new economy”. Now realistically someone is still going to buy their products and any boycott effort will just have minor effects. The absolute worst case scenario for anyone actually in charge of making decisions like this at a large company is they get a golden parachute and hop over to another place.

Just like you said, why would they turn down free money?

After a man date, I like to do a man touch and man mount.

Everything is either hotdog or not hotdog

I’ve played this a lot with my daughter and while it has some great moments, the actual Lego building in this game is really wonky with a controller. It’s a bit easier with a keyboard and mouse bit it’s still leaves something to be desired.

The rest of the game is great though.

Its not new tech but you’d most likely only see this in a datacenter or buildings with 10 Gb connections as this is fiber optic cabling. One would need an SFP to actually connect it to the port however. Also the tips of the fiber were probably scratched when installing it into the vent holes so the whole cable will probably be replaced and then fixed, so there are multiple failures here.

This is what an SFP looks like.

You could probably make a new issue in a wishlust repo that uses markdown checkboxes or something similar. Would be good if you already host Gitea or another git sever.

You probably won’t be able to run an LTS kernel on a brand new PC that just hit the market. But using the most recent kernel for arch or a derivative like endevorOS should work after like a week maximum.

I did have an issue like this on Ubuntu and its what made me actually start distro hopping since it worked fine on fedora and Arch using the latest kernels.

Serious question, does consuming a virus give a similar viral load as inhaling an equal amount?

Not even a banana?

I recommend adding ollama under the artificial intelligence tag.
