Are you saying this as someone who has gotten a self-signed key to work with their BIOS + kernel + bootloader + dual boot with windows, someone who runs a mainstream enough distro that they convinced manufacturers to ship with support for their key, or someone who doesn’t run linux with secure boot at all?
The performance is relative to the user. Could it be that you’re a god damned genius? :/
Man, we’re gonna have to change the name of the AUR because bad journalists keep thinking this has something to do with the distro.
“Arch Linux Users who go out of their way to install RAT at risk of installing RAT”
Ah, I think you mean non-free or just non-open source.
Something being “native” means it’s compiled for your specific hardware, ex. an x86-64 binary running on an x86-64 CPU. An example of non-native is an x86 binary being emulated on an ARM CPU, Java bytecode running on a JVM, or Python code running in an interpreter.
But your drivers are all definitely all running natively on your hardware.
ofc amd drivers should be native so that shouldn’t be my issue
I’m curious, what’s an example of non-native drivers?
Driver bugs exist, it could definitely be a hole in someone’s testing. I would assume the number of people running PopOS (and whatever build of mesa their release is on) with that specific GPU is pretty low. Maybe try the amdgpu-pro driver and see if the issues go away (or change, heh)? Not sure what the recommended way of installing it on PopOS/Ubuntu/Debian is.

We’re talking about an eink tablet. I assume none of them are running X, so there’s no “desktop” involved here. I have a remarkable 2 which runs Linux. I can ssh into it to rsync files to it, back things up, and make customizations. There’s no package manager, it seems to be an embedded system. It has python, so i’ve written some python scripts to do custom operations. Everything i do on my remarkable 2 is stuff I would expect to also be able to do on an android based tablet.
Not to nitpick, but Android is Linux based. So I would expect to be able to do all the same stuff that I can on a Linux based one.
Edit: can anyone explain why the downvote? Any concern about android ecosystem vs linux ecosystem should be moot, and I think that’s useful context…
Why are they called “patched” and “fix” and who is installing them?
It’s meant to be a convenience for people who know what they’re doing.
You can’t even install from AUR using pacman directly. You either need to makepkg them manually, or use an extra AUR compatible package manager like yay. It’s made as clear as possible to arch users that the AUR is not vetted in any way, it’s just for convenience.
Cool, welcome! I assume you’re aware that it won’t be all sunshine and rainbows from day 1, but give it time and leverage the community to solve any issues you run into. Effective bug reports and knowledge sharing make the experience better for everyone.
To me it’s worth having control over my hardware, and an OS that’s designed to work for me and not some corpo against me.
At least it’s not the third option…
Looking for Group. As someone else said, the ability to click “queue for dungeon”, be dropped into an instance with a bunch of random, and proceed to faceroll the dungeon without any thought or patience required.
The fun part of old school MMOs was the journey, not the destination. Modern MMOs have all optimized the journey out by making everything doable without ever being dependent on another player.
I know exactly what you’re feeling, and I totally get it. Still, if executed well, I’m at least impressed that they pulled it off. I would have sworn such an experience wasn’t possible.
But yeah, I’m not interested in having artificial multiplayer interactions.
As someone who believes LFG was the beginning of the end of MMOs, I can’t tell if I despise this or if I’m impressed.
It said it was going to explain why enshittification wouldn’t happen to them, but didn’t.
Letting perfection be the enemy of the good is why we can’t have nice things.
I mean…not that curious. It’s his entire livelihood at the moment.
So the second option? What distro?
