Ah remember when I had this phase


I’d use Nixos, with flatpak for user packages


As soon as they can read a little, they can program. Visual languages or text even. They need a very user friendly env but kids pick up QUICK
I was coding Lua at 13, when I learned I def felt like I could have learned earlier. I was surprised the basic concept was so easy.


So it actually works by process for my PC. Some memory mapping shenanigans for sure. Basically you set some environment variables when you launch a process and it will run of the dedicated gpu instead. Either port will show the same image


Not exactly sure what you mean by this


Helps with battery life on laptops


Sorry it’s called “hybrid graphics”


On Nixos haven’t had any issues. I did have issues getting the dynamic GPU thing going through. That’s a bit of a technical challenge at-least on Nixos


“Waa waaaa waaaa waaaa.” Bootlicker. That’s what we are doing, we don’t like it so we don’t use it and tell people why we don’t like it. What more do you want? That’s exactly what you are advocating for, free speech. If I don’t like your ideas even if your product is “good” I’m not going to use it. Because usually those “good” projects are seeped in ideology, or just aren’t even good lol.
Cancel culture this cancel culture that, that’s all I hear from whiny right wing wackos who think the world shouldn’t have consequences.
Part of it too is companies not developing for Linux first. If user switched to Linux overnight and there was more demand the experience would get better exponentially when it comes to driver and hardware. Any OS can pretty much implement any feature for any hardware. There isn’t really any magic that’s unique to any of them. Just styling and interface.


I’m on the opposite end with Nixos. Hard as fuck to use but god is it stable. Especially when you start leaning into things like impermanence and flakes. Crazy learning curve / upfront effort
Better yet, cash


There are some major differences starting to stir. I.E atomic distros Nixos and guix. But beyond that it’s all package manager differences. Some less popular OSs will have different init systems but that’s really about it


Default install from box store systems


NIXOS never worry about this every again


I wish I could upvote this twice
Nix, it just works, built in rollback sane defaults, super customization. Super easy to package for


Ubuntu is the windows of the Linux world


If you like parentheses anyway
I wish it want thrown around like it was AGI.
AI for ML systems has always kinda been a misleading term after it was co-oped by science fiction
