In this context, “liberals” is more generalizing capitalism-apologists. This is not “democrats vs republicans” type of liberals. This context is more used by communists/tankies/true-lefties.

full disclosure, I am also posting my general understanding - I am basic.

edit: also, sure are a lot of “serious” comments in this 196 rule posting. Pretty sure “rule” was not meant for intelligent debate.

interesting that ‘land use’ has been pretty flat?

hard to tell with the stacking lines, but I guess this isnt dataisbeautiful after all

How do YOU edge?

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

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.

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 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!

I honestly thought this was the default/classic answer, and am surprised at how far down it was.

I too just started Linux 2 weeks ago, and my search results led me to xrdp on host, and remmina on client.

It shows people are interested and exposure to Linux is growing. It’s a good thing.

Interesting to see Ubuntu for headless? Since it’s such a desktop-focused choice. What are your thoughts?

I ask because right now my desktop and my headless are both PopOS (because I liked it on my desktop), but I was thinking of changing the headless to something lighter.

I installed mint, kubuntu, and pop on a 3060 laptop, and 3080 desktop, and none had issues with GPU, drivers, or gaming. I am brand new to this, starting 2 weeks ago, I’m not experienced for sure.

Lutris gave me a command line to update vulkan, or similar, but otherwise mostly CLI-free too.

Pop specifically has an Nvidia iso as well.

THAT SAID- I still agree this is a “hobby” and if you don’t have time to mess with it, then Linux still isn’t “it just works!!” Like people will claim.

Weird, it’s telling me to get OpenSuse and in never heard of it!
