  • I had KDE on Arch with Nvidia Wayland going pretty well on Lenovo ThinkPad with a 4070 in an eGPU, until an update borked it. The only thing I couldn’t figure out was hot plugging my laptop dock, and not having the integrated Intel pick up in absence of the eGPU. But taking Nvidia out of the equation resolved all that. I then picked up a Radeon 6650, and I can’t even get the stupid thing to fire off at all.

    I think I’ll be better served just building a dedicated rig for my multi monitor desk setup.

    True, but nothing beats out active parenting and communication. Like has been said, you can set up filters all day long (and you should), but the second the kid learns how to install a distro from scratch, they’ll soon have unfettered access the the entire Internet. The only sensible approach is to talk with them about what’s out there, the dangers of it, and how to navigate the internet safely. Also too, browse with them. Spend time with them guiding them on the wonderful parts of the internet, and help them develope good habits on being a good netzien. Eventually they’ll find the seedy parts of the internet, but hopefully by then they’ll be less interested in it because it isn’t taboo, it’s just wrong.




  • I remember back to my econ class where most models were predicated by, “assuming rational actors…” and think then that most people are irrational and impulsive. And to think that much of the financial world is based on those models, it really sums up why no one has a clue why everything is so fuckey.
