I’m probably going to get flammed for this, so let me just say I’m already a Linux user.
We need to cool our jets here. Windows 12 isn’t even confirmed yet, and there’s no proof that it will require a subscription. That being said, a subscription service isn’t necessarily a bad thing if it will allow users to have access to features they need, or replace other existing subscription services like xbox game pass, cloud storage, media, etc…
Just a general reminder for folks to generate content. Don’t worry if it doesn’t get a lot of attention yet, the fact that it’s there will bring people in.
Correct me I’m wrong, but i think in practical sense of real time kernels is that you could have a program take over much of the processing power, limiting your ability to multi task. I believe this raises security and stability concerns for every day use, but is fine for Audio.
Keep in mind you can have multiple kernels installed and just choose which one to boot into. This way you can save the rt kernel for your audio stuff and then switch back into the normal kernel when you’re done.
As an anecdote, I use the Scarlet with Guitarix and dont notice any difference between the RT and normal kernel myself. Both have had little latency for me and the RT Kernel seemed stable enough. It’s possible you may have something running the background that’s holding you up in the normal kernel. Read the Arch Wiki article on performance enhancements for Audio https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Professional_audio
Hmm, not quite that bad but me, but i did notice some weird hangups and switched back to xorg.
General rule for me is at least once at week ( though I’ve had a laptop go almost six months last year and was fine post update ).
I would also recommend updating prior to installing any new software.
Meh, kinda depends. Most issues I’ve had with Arch are related to bugs with apps rather than system breakage (looking at you early Plasma). Overall Arch is stable and issues are resolved quickly, though sometimes you may need to avoid major software releases for a while.
Yeah idk, many distros show the classic startup/shutdow process
Agreed, Linux is better, but still good to know how to work with Windows
Oh cool, more power to them
Theoretically yes, that would be an sql injection. SQL Injection is preventable through good practice, but with added complexity of the application comes more chances for things to be missed.
In some ways, it’s good that lemmy is going through this now and getting vulnerabilities exposed sooner than later.
Just installed windows on a new hardrive and even that muthafucker couldn’t get the audio driver to work properly!
Browsing lemmy with a 2 in 1 Riced Arch laptop in bed…
Windows drivers can be hell at times, even more so than Linux.
Do it the traditional way! Its good to learn that stuff and feel comfortable tinkering around your system when need be… Especially when dealing with partitioning and setting up your bootloader.
I feel like Debian people are the ones who wear fedoras, and the ones who use Fedora wear golf attire.
Then you got Arch people like me (black jeans and hoody) who need to ham it into every conversation that I use Arch.
I just used the Arch Install script last time, does that make me a bad person?
No way the S20 is only slightly more powerful than an S3. If you’re not using any CPU intensive apps, such as games, then yeah, you aren’t going to see a massive difference. My S7 still runs well enough for browsing, music, and videos, but my S10 will run circles around it if I actually leverage its capabilities.
With the current news surfacing (so to speak) about neglect and dismissal of safety concerns by the owner, that lawsuit is potentially going to be massive.
Unfortunately it’s just something I think we’re going to have to deal with no matter where you go. Even forums with higher quality users still have lame jokes and puns thrown around.
My in-laws have starlink. It’s excellent and a huge improvement from their previous Internet setup. There’s no fiber on their side of town for the foreseeable future.
