Not to go down a rabbit hole that’s off topic, but I’m generally not offended by Steam’s cut. The platform, advertising, centralizing, hosting, and cloud saves, etc etc, seem like a major benefit, especially for smaller developers, that would allow them to get to market faster, and with a much larger audience.

*70% - don’t forget Steam’s cut! There’s basically nothing left after that.

/s just in case not obvious

How do YOU edge?

Ugh now even my Pi needs clothes??!? Ridiculous.

ah, so a two test limit is in place.

I very much agree with that first sentence. I think they forget how much they know at a baseline, and can’t skip that when talking to a copy-paste idiot like me.

well, this is what tests are for, right?

I’ve been doing computer stuff for a long time and now I have a really dumb question… what’s the benefit of 2x NICs?

In case you don’t have a 2.5gb switch and you daisy chain to a NAS or something?

I’ll have to take a look! Not heard of frigate, and thus far no, I’m not running Home Assistant.

I just found out that Blue Iris is made for Windows, so I guess I’ll be running BlueIris, NAS, and torrents back on windows, probably ltsc.

I know I could try a vm or other such, but I don’t feel like fighting BlueIris preferences.

Blows my mind that a “security and privacy” system like BI isn’t native to Linux.

I mean… that’s a good point. I only make bulk materials, like 1 ton supersaks, and we tend to OVERfill so customers don’t complain, with the target still being close to zero for a whole batch.

Most of our packaging machines require < 1%, target <0.5% variance (both ways). Honestly in practice, over a whole batch the total variance is extremely tiny.

Add to this story the accuracy of a household, not-calibrated scale? Yeah I’d say this seems OK.

I’m so used to it, I was expecting more. “that’s it?” - i thought to myself, in this boring dystopia.

I am using rclone with Linux, and works just fine. Just long term backups, but it runs the same speed (slow) as windows-to-proton.

Anyway, point being rclone works!

PopOS is what got me into Linux, and the only one that worked “out of the the box” for the handful of things I wanted, esp remote desktop.

Yes, anecdotal, but I’m running 3 PCs on Pop and loving it.

Edit: reading the article, and graph, it also looks like the field is more crowded in general. Also, would be good to see total installs over time, not just %.

I can confirm that PopOS 22.04 is definitely running on X. wayland is officially coming when Cosmic releases.

That said, I see that Wayland is “available” if I want to manually switch to it - but it is definitely disabled as a default (and current) setting.

Wait, what? I’m on PopOS, with Nvidia GPU, and my “g-sync” VRR works fine.

That’s what I’m doing! I used it to make a “blog” of all the things I had to learn to switch to Linux for my home drives and daily gaming rig. Complete with copy buttons on the code blocks so I can do a complete reformat in minutes!

holy crap. I must have read it 3-4 times, STILL found nothing wrong, so I went to the comments. It took this comment train for me to see it, meaning you had to tell me literally what it was.

Human brains are so neat sometimes.
