No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If we flipped the script, and the people working the shittiest jobs in America got Elon Musk money for working what would happen? Then gave the rich the same wage the lowly worker would earn?
13·18 hours agoIf you have the money Elon Musk has, it’s not really work, it’s a hobby.
Because you can do whatever the fuck you want all day every day. Not a single day is work if you are a billionaire.

31·18 hours agoI don’t care, just seems like a waste of time and a bit childish IMO.
It’s been a long time since it happened last, but I have experienced users claiming they have me flagged for something.
And sometimes when taken out of context a post can seem bad, but the times it has happened, the opinion quickly turned against them when they “called me out”, and I explained the background.
I basically never see that anymore, IDK maybe I blocked them? Because generally those people are idiots.
Technically she she should have been more specific. I just don’t get why she lost her head too, instead of just the arms?
I guess it must have been an evil Genie. 😋

Linux@lemmy.ml•Linus Torvalds uses AI to debug an Intel GPU driver bug
805·2 days agoIf an AI can find the bug and point it out, I don’t see a problem, as long as it is checked thoroughly enough by an actual skilled programmer, to make sure that doing what the AI suggest is not making things worse.

Linux@lemmy.ml•I'm planning to build a Linux gaming PC. Any suggestions?
1·3 days agoOK I didn’t know that. Pro cards used to have a W in the start of the name.
Ah well, AMD never was very good at naming schemes.

Linux@lemmy.ml•I'm planning to build a Linux gaming PC. Any suggestions?
7·3 days agoGames that run on Linux are about as fast on Linux as on Windows. In fact they tend to run a little faster on Linux.
Use AMD CPU and AMD GPU for the smoothest experience.
AMD CPU is more reliable, and Radeon graphics have the best support for Linux.It is estimated that around 12000 Games work on Linux, or about 90%. For specific game compatibility you can always check protondb. Notice though that some games that have native Linux versions are also on ProtonDB, so you should check on the steam client first if there is a native Linux version.
PS ProtonDB state the number of games that are verified to work as almost 9,900, and playable as almost 30,000 😎
But Platinum or Gold rated games are only 60%.Personally I generally check ProtonDB before buying a game, but it’s been quite a while since there was something that didn’t work.

2·3 days agoWow cool rig.👍😎
That’s basically double up overall compared to mine. 😋
I have Ryzen 7, Radeon 6600 XT, 16 GB Ram, 1 TB SSD.PS:
Didn’t AMD change the naming scheme on the Radeon 9000 series so it’s 9070? AFAIK a 9700 is technically a board dating back to 2003.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Ubuntu is growing faster on Windows 11 than on native Linux PCs, says Canonical
16·4 days agoI agree, they did help Linux 20 years ago, I started using Linux with Ubuntu in 2005, it’s sad IMO that they’re no longer much of a benefit to Linux. They ruined everything with their dual license shit, and trying to do internally behind closed doors, what other projects were working on, for instance when they made MIR to compete with Wayland. And their Snap package system that is proprietary doesn’t help Linux either.
They’ve made so many bad decisions that have been detrimental to both themselves and Linux as a whole. And since 2010 their popularity has been steadily declining.
I suspect their plan was to dominate Linux and become a de facto standard for using Linux. Instead they aren’t even close to the most popular distro anymore.
On Steam survey they rank 7, and on DistroWatch they rank 10 on page hit ranking for 12 months and 1 month. And on a reddit they ranks 8 as of 2025.DistroWatch Page Hit Ranking:
https://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=popularitySteam Harware survey:
https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-SteamReddit stat:
https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/1sta2pu/oc_linux_distro_rankings_over_time/#lightboxIt’s sad because Ubuntu had a very strong start, But Mark Shuttleworth wanted to maintain control of code that was used to improve Ubuntu, and introduced the dual license for Ubuntu projects, so Canonical could close up further developments any time they wanted. Meaning Ubuntu/Canonical became untrustworthy as maintainers of anything open source.
Luckily we now have other supporters like Valve now. And it is very telling that Ubuntu is no-longer the #1 goto distro for commercial projects.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Ubuntu is growing faster on Windows 11 than on native Linux PCs, says Canonical
2·4 days agoYes I guess it could, but then the growth should appear equally or greater as independent installs.

45·4 days agoOriginally Ubuntu was marketing itself on freedom, and the open source culture that had made the Linux desktop possible.
Growing on Windows 11 is not helping promote freedom from proprietary software, so I don’t see that as a positive.
Ubuntu has lost perspective, and abandoned the ideals of Open Source IMO.
Yes I know there are many Americans that are very unhappy Trump became President.
And I really really wish you luck next time. But for now your country is unfortunately represented by madness.
IDK but I’m innocent. I found it a bit confusing so I abstained:

But I can see you downvoted me for answering, so thanks for that. 🤥
That makes it a typo, but since there are 15625 3 letter acronyms, and it’s impossible to know them all, instead of being arrogant and assume anything, I asked.
Exactly, “here” is Denmark. I usually always include that when it is relevant to the understanding. But I somehow forgot this time.
Edited my comment to include “here” is Denmark.
THW?





Goddammit! 4ever I can handle but 5ever that is brutal. 😋
