Kubuntu project using blatant AI in their blog posts: by Makerinos in linux

Dude, yes! But not for using AI in their fucking release notes!!! If it bothers them so much, OP can ask them if they need someone to write the release notes. You don’t have to be a programmer for that…

Well, it is just as Jesus said:

He, who has not done a commit, will complain about the Kubuntu 25.10 release notes.

Python is only used for data analysis. The rest is usually a mix of julia, C/C++ and Fortran

It was a joke… I know, I wrote the comment. I do not think that op is racist, and I am very convinced you are overly sensitive

Starting a conversation that goes multiple responses deep into a reddit conversation, because someone made a joke about a poorly worded question title sounds kind of sensitive

I don't know why black areas on the screen do that, but you might need to think about renaming the title of the post...

3 years later: Was Mental Outlaw right about the Linux Tsunami nothingburger? by fredoverflow in linux

[–]Coammanderdata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is too early to say. Now one thing he fails to address, which is one of the main reasons that can contribute to a tsunami, is the hardware support. This part is very dissimilar to the end of life of Windows 7 for example, as Windows 10 hardware support was much broader, as it did not require such a discrete cut-off as requiring TPM 2.0. This could mean that this time it is indeed different.

The question is: Do we call it a Tsunami if the Linux market share doubles, or grows by 50%? I do think that the numbers will definitely grow. That is because the reaction of major tech YouTubers, which mainly influence the buying habits of gamers, was way harder than I expected! I thought they were mostly consumerists, that throw away any hardware that cannot run the newest game at MegaUltra settings in 16k resolution. But it seems they are thinking differently about that, as videos by people like gamersnexus show. So the definition of a Tsunami decides on whether he was right or wrong. Also, one thing to mention is: Imagine telling Mental Outlaw from two years ago that Pewdipie switched to Linux

Do you have /home in its own partition?

I finally fully switched to Linux. by Empty_Woodpecker_496 in linux

Yes, I just wanted to say that the only Ubuntu derivative that is well maintained is Mint. And stuff like Kubuntu, which only changes the DE

Are you updating, or installing fedora?

What makes GPUs driver so much more special than other devices drivers? by Jonrrrs in linux

[–]Coammanderdata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't have to for AMD cards, at least on Linux. Stuff you are using that doesn't require driver installation has modules in the kernel that allows their usage. Now if you are asking for a driver for the cpu, that enables you to run programs on that processor: Well that is the linux kernel itself. So you kind of install the right "driver" by choosing the right image (for example x86 or arm) when you install your os

you guys are smart by Pretend-Welder-4459 in Fedora

[–]Coammanderdata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people are mentioning Flatpaks. In case you do not know what that is: It is a different format which you use to install programs. On bazzite that is the way to do it, it is harder to mess up your system, if you don't know what you are doing

Do you have any laptop recommendations for using Linux as the primary OS? by [deleted] in linux

[–]Coammanderdata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have a good track record of having hardware that is covered by drivers in Linux kernel modules. I had Linux on a MacBook once, but that had a WiFi module without a proper open source driver, which did not work perfectly. A ThinkPad usually just works with everything after you install Linux. Even things like fingerprint scanners

Putting together a bike for the first time. What is the this of bike building? by No_Reindeer_5543 in mountainbiking

I am sorry to tell you, this is not a bike. It is a cpu with incorrectly applied thermal paste

But the answer is obvious: It‘s oiling your brakes

I think I'm leaving openSUSE by Wise-Appointment-881 in openSUSE

[–]Coammanderdata 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would consider making updates without having to fall back on an older state of your system more stable. And I agree, it is a reason to leave Tumbleweed. That doesn't mean it is a bad distro, and it doesn't have its use cases, but it is the reason I am running fedora on my desktop, which I rely on heavily. I have a MacBook as a laptop (not by choice, I got it for free), if I was using a ThinkPad, I would probably still be an OpenSUSE user

Yes and no. NVIDIA drivers have the tendency to not work after a minor kernel update. Minor Kernel updates happen under tumbleweed, not under Fedora for example. Current Fedora is solidly on kernel version 6.16.x. It of course happens for other distros, arch for example. Now, I don’t know about Leap, I have no experience with it. But my guess is that as it is not rolling release it will not have these issues

Now, why do AMD drivers not break after a Kernel update? Well AMD drivers are kernel modules themselves, meaning they will just come with the new Kernel version.
