They likely have chosen a lot of programs on the installer. I have had my current install for a few years and I’m sitting at 2029 packages

You should never trust an apple user for technology questions. If they knew better, they wouldn’t be using apple devices.

Intel thinks people will pay to see its advertisements?

I’m not a fan of all the gamer aesthetics, but Garuda works so well out of the box.

I tend to recommend Linux Mint (cinnamon) for newbies to start with so they can get over their initial shock, and then Garuda when they’re more comfortable and want something exciting/better gaming performance

I have a framework, pretty happy with it - Arch installed without any hitches and runs well. Only downside is how long it took to go from deposit to actually paying/shipping.

“Developers still can’t include language about going directly to their websites for a discounted rate”

“However, the rulings establised that Apple’s so-called “anti-steering” rules—language prohibiting developers from mentioning cheaper or alternative purchasing options that might be available outside of an app—were anticompetitive.”

Well, I guess it’s time to sue again since Apple is refusing to respect the court ruling.

I guess I’m the one who printed all the money since 2020.

Would you mind taking pictures and talking about your process? I would be interested in seeing this project and the choices you make for it

It looks to me like DC still goes out of its way to make even buying a weapon a pain in the ass:

Application for Firearms Registration Certificate (PD-219)
Firearms Registration Application Statement of Eligibility
Firearms Certificate Information Update Form (Please complete this form and submit it to the Firearms Registration Branch via email at firearms.adminbox@dc.gov)
Fingerprint Fee Notice and Worksheet
Firearm Application Addendum-Used Firearm Explanation
Take Online Firearms Safety Training Course (30 Minutes) and bring certificate to initial visit Copy of your Government Issued Identification, i.e., Driver’s License, Military ID (original will be verified again in person)

I guess ATF-4473 doesn’t do enough tracking/registering for their liking.

And that’s before you go beg the cops to be allowed to legally carry a weapon to defend yourself.

Did you read the article?

The theory I heard was to make the impression of artillery strikes, so that Russia could claim that Ukraine is doing military strikes on the power plant

Google (The company behind Chrome) wants to create a type of DRM for web pages. Google claims that this will help with things like bot traffic, spam, etc.

Mozilla (The company behind firefox) is opposed to creating this DRM because it has no benefit to the end user and is likely to be harmful to the openness of the internet.

You likely know more than me about doing it, but this is my source

Single GPU passthrough

Currently, PCI passthrough works for dual-graphic cards only. However, there is a workaround for passing a single graphic card. The problem with this approach is that you have to deattach the graphics card from the host and use ssh to control the host from the guest.

When you start the virtual machine, all your GUI apps will be force terminated. However, as a workaround, you can use Xpra to detach to another Display before starting the virtual machine and reattach the Apps to display after shutting down the virtual machine.

If you have NVIDIA GPU, you may need to dump your GPU’s vBIOS using nvflashAUR and patch it using vBIOS Patcher.

NVIDIA vGPU

By default, NVIDIA disabled the vGPU for consumer series (if you own an enterprise card go ahead). However, you can unlock vGPU for your consumer card.

You will also need a vGPU license, though there are some workarounds.

Follow this guide to manually setup a Windows 10 guest with NVIDIA vGPU.

Once I got my virtualization settings set up correctly in UEFI, and KVM was my hypervisor instead of QEMU TCG, my performance did seem pretty good. Maybe it’s just working correctly without having to follow these steps?

For gaming? I haven’t really run into any issues. If you’re trying to virtualize your GPU for VMs and stuff like that, Nvidia is a lot more locked down. I use the proprietary drivers - the open source ones don’t seem to perform as well. Most Distributions will just give you a prompt where you select which drivers you would prefer to use.
