Ironically enough just 2 days ago I posted this https://lemmy.ml/post/20691536/13906950 namely how the 1st thing I do after installing NVIDIA drivers on Debian is disabling Wayland to rely on X11 simply because it doesn't work.

Sadly that's relevant here precisely because if we are talking about Valve it's about gaming, if it's about gaming one simply can't ignore the state of NVIDIA drivers.

So... it might run on 50% on Linux desktops but on mine, which I also game on, it never worked once I had drivers for gaming installed. Consequently I understand "how people are complaining" because that's exactly my experience.

Care to unfold a bit more what's hilarious? Which metrics from the article are wrong or irrelevant for example? You might disagree with the conclusion, and maybe rightly so, but are you saying the data itself, e.g number of companies funded is false? Or it does not matter and something else could help better understand the situation?

Very entertaining and on point, thanks for sharing.

30k EUR or more... why? Or rather, what for and for whom?

I mean I LOVE to see alternatives to cars but... a fancy electric bike is less than 5k EUR, a electric cargo bike (with a 400kg a payload, e.g Urban Arrow) is around 7k EUR, a tiny electric EV from France Bagnole (from https://kilow.com which did e-bikes until now) seems to be 10k EUR ... this is 3x or 5x (!) more for a much better top speed but also not a lot of actual space.

I understand the need for an electric bike (which I have) in cities but also in the countryside, going from a small town to a larger one where public transport exist but is very infrequent but ... this, I don't get. Who needs to reach 100km/h or more regularly and wouldn't go for an EV "proper". I briefly checked and a Nissan Leaf is in the same price range.

I'd be curious who is actually buying this and even more why they are preferring this over alternatives.

Apologies if I sound critical I'm just very surprised by the price and thus which market this is addressing.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to explain.

I did notice CTF on the description so I imagine "escaping" it is "harder" than with containers. I recently participated to SplinterCon which included a "block-a-thon" (cf day 2 of https://splintercon.net/brussels/ ) to try to escape a limited environment, approximately simulating the limited Internet access of some political regime. It might be interesting in that context too.

Could also be interesting then to distinguish which defaults are changed compared to Docker ones or examples for which nsjail is currently preferred.

I love how you just assumed that I’m Chinese

I bet most people reading "I live in Canada, my family moved here back when I was still in school. I’d like to move to China one day" would assume the same, especially "back" as I understood, but my English isn't perfect, return FROM China. It has nothing to do with "race", culture, politics or economy.

Anyway, this makes it even more interesting, have you already been to China at all then? Worked there? Because I did but I don't want to make assumptions so again feel free to clarify.

PS: also want to make it clear, I didn't say nor assumed that you were Chinese, but of Chinese heritage, a bit different.

Looks like you don't care for zoning... then I imagine whatever beacon paired solely with your phone would do.

Possibly, see https://github.com/ai-robots-txt/ai.robots.txt but I just discovered it myself while looking for a Robots.txt a la CrowdSec/AdBlocking lists, so feedback appreciated!

I’ve broken my Nvidia driver 4x this week

Genuinely confused by that statement... been using an NVIDIA for years, both closed (to play and work) and open drivers (to test only) and beside having the "wrong" version for CUDA and some graphical bug in specific situation, e.g ALT-Tab out of game or resuming from a game leading to some minor visual glitches, I've never encountered even a reboot. I also have relatively recent drivers but I don't even know which version I have (checked out of curiosity : Driver Version: 525.147.05 CUDA Version: 12.0).

So... I don't get it, what leads you and others to such situation? Are you reverse engineering the drivers? Are you overclocking? Are you changing some specific parameters that are not stable?

I'm asking because this is so different from my experience that I don't get it.

Naive question but what does Davinci Resolve do that Kdenlive does not?

I'm asking for a "normal" user, not somebody who is trying to master the latest Dune for a production environment (even though I'd still be curious).

Neat, naive question, what's the impact on Steam/Proton?

It's for everyone. People who are tech oriented can dig deeper by implementing or modifying what I suggest but overall anybody can understand the problems, see that solutions are available and what a next step could be. I would say it's for people who want to do better with tech regardless of their current knowledge.

Edit: I give weekend workshops for 11-12 years old kid so I believe the material is rather accessible but always happy to hear suggestions to do better!
