good on you, NVIDIA drivers are very decent these days, on wayland in particular. Glad to see someone rocking an Xeon chip, they are great chips.
And I just learned that CachyOS is based on Arch! I just began dual booting fedora (nobara) with arch, but went with river as the wayland compositor, because I heard good things. KDE is a great DE, keep learning linux, it’s a lot of fun!
this is awesome! I’ll have to test this out because gaming with the daughter has been limited to games that support it natively. I wonder if this can work with emulated games too?
Overcooked, Liars Bar, Ready or Not, Schedule 1, Elden Ring, Jackbox, etc . . . . . All work great as multiplayer titles on linux. There’s a great trove of fun games that don’t require kernel level anticheat because the the community of players isn’t as toxic.
Oh no worries, I am writing a Cisco networking exam in about a month, so I’ve actually studied subnets and addressing a good amount, but I don’t mind the refresher!
I was just speaking more generally, in terms of programming, where integers and strings are different data types, yet you can store numbers as a string, which I always found interesting.
interesting . . In my head, I think of ip addresses like just decimal values or integers separated by periods, but clearly a decimal value isn’t processed as such by a computer. To think that IP addresses are simply strings is pretty interesting to my amateur mind, because for all my life I thought of them as technical computer jargon that isn’t the same as what I used to think strings were: words!
Okay, I’m learning networking but have no idea what this means
Funny, I’m trying to think of the amount of times my 8 year old daughter asked me to switch to windows because Linux has too many issues, and I’ve got nothing.
The real copium is thinking Linux is poverty, just to feel good about windows.
Quality copypasta!
glad more people are using Arch-based distros! I finally installed arch (btw) without the archinstall script, and I must say, the more people that can potentially feel the sense of accomplishment that I felt when I got my display manager and window manager set up the way I wanted, the better!
