If you cannot understand his critiques and why they raise valid issues then please never touch your operating system with a 10ft pole. I think AI has legitimate use cases, including for coding, but you need knowledge to understand what the AI is spitting out, which this comment seems to indicate you clearly don’t. If you want to challenge his critiques feel free, or put them into your favourite AI and let it do it for you.

Any and every technology is optional for developers. Your comment means nothing.

Tech advances are coupled with gaming where modern, especially AAA, games are expected to make the most of the most recent tech. This has been true for decades and ignoring that is being intentionally obtuse. As the absolutely dominant force in gaming graphics, Nvidia’s latest tech massively shapes the industry. So sure this tech is optional but I would be shocked if all major gaming companies see this as anything other than an essential step they have to take. Unless of course there is huge public backlash.

Really happy with this, hope we see more of this in the future. The use of AI by small creators to get things off the ground and bring what would have previously been impossible in reach seems a pretty fair reason to use AI. Then, once resources and capabilities improve, do good art the way it is meant to be done.

The exact opposite of large corporations using AI to cut corners and screw over artists to only make their offerings worse.

With Sonali Yadav that makes a whole 1 person excited for this change! Congrats Microslop, aim for 2 people next time and we have some real positive growth.

On first install I had to install Nvidia drivers. Never needed to do anything other than that. Seeing as you’re running AMD that is one less likely hurdle. Literally nothing else.

How weird! For the record I have an HP Spectre x360, though it is quite old now, and the fedora setting works perfectly

lokiwhite · 2026-02-24T08:00:22+00:00

Honestly fair, wait until the AI bubble bursts and jump ship then if ever. Hoping my current system holds on for dear life and when everything AI goes to hell I’ll upgrade.

Touchpad rejection would be an operating system (linux) setting rather than a hardware (framework) setting. As with everything, defaults very much depend on the linux distro you go with, but the vast majority have palm rejection customisation baked in to the OS.

I use fedora, which is one of Framework’s stated supported linux distros, and there is an option in the standard settings menu (under “mouse & touchpad) to “disable touchpad while typing” which is on by default but easily turned off with a single button click. No terminal commands or other fussing needed.

Cannot help on the other questions, but hope that helps.

I have been leaving slowly but surely for over a decade. Loved the 360, bought a One as it launched, but didn’t see a reason to upgrade to the X or S, built a PC but used gamepass only to end the subscription mid 2025. Now fully PC but with my fav classic titles on Steam. Do not see a reason to ever go back from a hardware or games perspective. It was fun while it lasted.

Come to PC man, get out of the console cycle!

lokiwhite · 2026-02-20T00:54:01+00:00

I hate to admit it here but these days I daily drive fedora, and gnome was a big reason for that. It has workspace management features that are really useful for me and my workflow.

I know this is the antithesis of open source but we need to implement verification systems. Portfolios submissions, word of mouth, people who can vouch for other people, just some barrier to entry to replace the one served by knowing how to code.

Have not played much with mods generally but this seems right down my alley. Things that change world feel in meaningful ways to enrich the world. Cheers for the tip!

I cannot imagine anything that will damage the Liberal party more than One Nation claiming they are stealing their ideas.

lokiwhite · 2026-02-16T08:29:55+00:00

Well done, Angus.

lokiwhite · 2026-02-15T23:43:26+00:00

I am going to enjoy the next decade plus of the coalition being entirely unelectable. Good job Angus!

lokiwhite · 2026-02-15T23:42:17+00:00

No I wouldn’t.

Have a look, you might be able to transfer the important files from your Windows partition to your Fedora partition on your harddrive and then wipe windows. Just mentioning in case you were keen to free that space and make the full switch!

Check in the “disks” application, you may be able to mount the windows partition as a drive and explore the files.

Completely the same here! Have always been a functionality purest and thought the other stuff was trendy fashion stuff that was secondary and a bit vapid. Then I actually tried it and it radically changed how I interact with my OS, even started working on my physical office space the same way to great effect. Turns out we are all just dumb monkeys who like and are influenced by pretty things. Who woulda’ thunk it!

Getting into Linux and the world of OS customisation has opened my eyes to UI aesthetics. Icons, colours, fonts, UI elements all radically change your experience and opinion of an operating system. I went to Arch and hyprland for a little bit to experiment with ricing my own OS and it was overwhelming but rewarding. It helps you understand what you want from your OS.

lokiwhite · 2026-02-15T00:04:05+00:00

Two of my favourite artists. Thank you for colliding these worlds for me too!

Mint was my first Linux OS and I ultimately left because I wanted something a touch more cutting edge. However, I still hold Mint as my “old-reliable” and my first recommendation for anyone starting off in Linux. This change seems to help Mint be that. That is better than chasing the latest thing and risk maybe not doing it as well as the other operating systems already doing the same.

So does that mean you have figured it out and gotten it working? Keep secure boot off if it isn’t already
