My two cents.

I have quite a few Nvidia GPUs I still use (2080,3080ti,3090) but recently purchased two AMD cards. I have a 5700xt and 7800xt.

I recently started using Universal Blue Linux as my daily driver on most of my systems. Bluefin for my desktop with Nvidia, Bazzite for my gaming PC with AMD.

They do both work however I have still had more issues with NVIDIA than AMD. For example, running games tends to be buggier but that is specifically an Nvidia driver issue. I'm guessing most hot fixes come out for the windows driver first. For instance, FF7 Rebirth does not render world geometry on Nvidia on Linux. I do not have this problem under AMD

I started purchasing the AMD cards because I was growing tired of waiting for Nvidia stability on Linux.

Is it much better than it was before , yes Do you use Nvidia CUDA apps or AI? Check, that works! Is it still as smooth and seamless as AMD, nope, you're still going to end up with regressions.

I think it's only a matter time before Nvidia finally figured this out as they heavily rely on Linux as a platform in their own work. But right now your best user experience overall is going to be on AMD hardware.

Make Parasite Eve but with the turn based gameplay of "Yakuza:Like a Dragon"

Y'all, I fell for it.

I bought a Bambu X1C and fully regret it. Just sent them a return request and called their product Defective by design in my RMA. I don't expect them to acknowledge it but I figured I would send them a hefty fu first. I'm spending the rest of my afternoon downgrading firmware on this thing until I can install X1plus on it. Where am I buying my next 3D printer? Prusa? Do they have a bigger one that can print ppa-cf?

I guess I'm going to have to do my part and REBUY games I already own when the Capcom test arrives and they say "We're re-releasing MegaMan Legends with no real quality of life changes for 40$ on steam to test the waters"

Not yet. I'm just using RDP ATM. I'm thinking about trying out a small Intel arc GPU and moving over to looking glass.

I virtualize windows for certain apps like Wendell does at level1techs. You can use Chris Titus windows utility to make a microwin11 image for your VM and install Adobe into there. This is a power user solution.

Imo the Mac is technically cheaper than it's ever been and a great alternative for a second PC.

F this noise dudes. Leave windows while you can.

These platforms seem more vulnerable to alternatives than they ever have been before but it turns out the opposite is true. The hosting infrastructure is so expensive that it prevents competitors from even starting. Datacenters are basically a cartel and getting your foot in the door is near impossible without bouncing in on the heels of someone who's in. Making compute storage cheaper is not the name of the game when it's easier to profit by simply limiting access and driving the price up.

On the other hand, YouTube has never been profitable.

I've preordered it. I have a few hori controllers. Some are worse than others. Even though its design is pretty much identical to their switch controller, I honestly want to give it a try. My goto controllers lately have been the PS5 controller and the Gamsir g7 se. I have been playing everything recently on Bazzite so it's been fun to try out different controllers for different games.

They both have their corporate masters. It's just RedPubs run a pro corporate ticket and Democrats have a platform that is perceived as anti corporate. RedPubs get into the office and do exactly what they promised, Democrats get into the office and have to pretend to not bite the hand that feeds too hard (more of a gentle lick).

This is why the Democrats strategy is to lose. They are essentially paid to lose. Corporatism is what is getting in the way of democracy.

I've seen this done on VMware personally. They most likely pivoted from another system on that network with a RAT. Here's bleeping computer article instead: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/meet-interlock-the-new-ransomware-targeting-freebsd-servers/
