on one hand I agree. on the other, google has historically been afraid of the verb to google becoming generic, so of course I’d like to see that happen.

I think the middle ground is say google it, but make it clear you mean google it on an alternative search engine

but stability isn’t something that would drive a gentoo user away either.

a lot of the draw of gentoo from what I saw was being able to configure everything down to how it gets compiled. it’s simple to apply a patch to a package before it gets built or maintain a custom kernel config in nixos, as well as all the advantages of declarative os

podman works on windows hosts, as long as you don’t need windows containers

I’ve never used it but this one seems like the most complete currently, and it’ll tell you which tests fail.

even with cpu passthrough some things are still emulated. you can run a vm detector and see for yourself what tests fail.

it may not affect your games but others should still be careful since it is a real issue, and people do get banned for it.

proton has support for quite a few kernel level anti cheat now, although it has to be explicitly allowed by the dev. needs to be run via steam I think, but you can add non steam games if you got them elsewhere

machine id isn’t necessarily the important part. anticheat and vm detection check a lot of different heuristics incl hard to defend against things like timing attacks on particular cpu instructions. there’s a handful of open source versions if you’re curious

sorry no, the servarr site. look at this section for docker info. I think the links from there should have most of the background info

the docker builds it uses are unofficial technically, but the source is here, you can see that the only thing it does is download the official build

the first dockerfile linked on the official site is pretty simple. read it to make sure it’s safe, then build it locally yourself.

llvm exists. it might be a bit of effort if you’ve used too many proprietary gcc extensions, but for most things I don’t think it’s terrible to just switch between gcc and clang

no, it’s still a smoother experience ootb for things like c# desktop apps. in vscode you don’t get a wysiwig wpf designer and such, and xaml completion is worse to non existent.

It does seem to be a newer dev thing though, myself and my jr devs use vscode as much as we can and jump back to VS only when necessary, the older devs on my team are all 100% visual studio and will be forever

it’s tied to packagekit, so tumbleweed should work ootb. opensuse’s immutable distro is less likely to be possible though, as well as anything else like that

neither figma nor davinci is libre either

only sort of.

this is the original document defining markdown, and you’ll notice it doesn’t really specify a lot of the things that have compatibility issues across different markdown processors, along with allowing arbitrary html which really depends on where you’re showing it. There’s a list of ambiguous syntax here.

CommonMark is as close to a standard as we have.

I second the formbot voron 0.2 kit, it was my first printer and it was a great experience. I have had a lot of heat creep issues with the dragon hf hotend though, I’d probably recommend the standard one instead. Other than that it’s been much less required tinkering than I was led to believe. It generally just works.

tailscale also just has a button to buy/enable mullvad as an exit node. if you’re just looking for a commercial vpn for privacy it works well.

the problem is if the connection gets interrupted your progress is gone. you download to a file first and it gets interrupted, you just resume the download later

is that not just a checkbox when you install though?

there was that one time Ubuntu added ads to the search menu tho

is there compositor support? is there a way to get kde to rotate my monitor to a specific degree via cli?

keep in mind I have no idea if there are real use cases for diagonal monitors, I just duct taped an accelerometer to the back of my monitor and can only get it to rotate in 90 degree increments with kscreendoctor and thought it would be funny if the picture was just always upright
