With Proxmox on AMD gpus, it can be as simple as picking a pci device from a dropdown.

– but then again, you’ll need to learn how to properly use proxmox, esp. with respect to storage configuration. Also, the performance can still suffer, depending on various factors.

If it’s not too big of an inconvenience, dual boot is the way to go, IMHO.

A pedantic thing to say, surely, but the title really should’ve been: “Linux Directory Structure” – ‘Linux filesystems’ (the title in the graphic) refers to a different topic entirely; the title of this post mitigates the confusion a bit, though still, ‘directory structure’ is the better term.

That is a great change to the papers of the past where you have to have an affiliation to a university to get access to a paper and sometimes even that is not enough.

‘Oxford Scholarship Online’ would license different sets of books to different departments; so someone from the philosophy department couldn’t get access to books classified under sociology or history.

Imagine doing something similar at the checkout table in a ‘physical’ library.

There’s a less capable Mv3 port of uBlock Origin by the original developer, called ‘uBlock Origin Lite’: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ddkjiahejlhfcafbddmgiahcphecmpfh

I use Chromium only very rarely, so I don’t know how effective it is, though.

Here’s another video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PriwCi6SzLo (including an interview with the great Alexandra Elbakyan).

Cory Doctorow recently wrote about this in some detail (incl. helpful links): https://pluralistic.net/2024/08/16/the-public-sphere/#not-the-elsevier

The name of the pdf file inside the torrent is its md5 hashsum without the .pdf extension.

On libgen.rs you can see the md5 hashsum on the download page; on libgen.li you need to look at the JSON file provided at the link on the search result , as they don’t render it on the ui.

The torrents are alive; as long as you can get the torrent links from libgen, you have access to the files. (No need to share whole archives either, you can pick & choose).

If you’re using the ‘Pro’ or ‘Education’ license for Windows 10, you can look into Hyper-V, which should allow you to boot a VM from a physical disk.

Hyper-V is built-in to Windows; & you just need to enable it in system settings.

Not sure if it works with partitions, if you’re dual booting the OSs from separate partitions on the same disk – it probably doesn’t; in which case you might need to migrate Mint to its dedicated disk first.

I believe the original SUSE Linux started as a bunch of helper scripts for installing Slackware.

The Nyxt browser – webkit as rendering engine, extensible by Common Lisp – was making good progress, though its progress slowed down considerably lately; and there are a few ‘showstoppers’ preventing everyday usage, at least for me.

No because the caption under the first image says that SUSE’s mascot is a ‘gecko named Geeko’ – which cannot be farther from the truth, for it is a Chameleon named Geeko, that is the mascot of SUSE. Aye.

BezOS … that’s Amazon Linux though.

vim now has an option to put the .vim folder in ~/.config; though I’m not sure if the default plugin/package & syntax folders can be set under ~/.local/share.

XP, to OS X 10.4-10.8, to Linux

IIRC this issue is mentioned in the gitlab discussions (from months ago … not sure how this became news suddenly); they’re looking to patch Inter if they decide to use it as the UI font.

Qt based file managers (PCManFM, Dolphin) usually have a filter input that’s quite useful. It’s limited to the current folder, and not a fuzzy finder, though.

As a side note, there’s a multiplatform Qt6 clone of foobar2000, called ‘fooyin’: https://github.com/fooyin/fooyin.git I’ve never been a foobar2000 user, but I’m really impressed by this program; especially the customizability of the UI with respect to custom tags.

It’s to out-compete the competitors so as not to become obsolete. … also I hope you’re aware that I’m saying all of this ‘ironically’, to poke fun at the mental gymnastics in the OP’s post.

The prize of the competition is what the competitors compete for. There’s a prize and the winner gets it; the loser doesn’t get it.

Why is this so hard to understand? I guess it’s nature’s way of weeding out the losers.

I think we should be chasing all the trendy trends to become competitive with the competition. That’s the only way to push those numbers up (that need to be pushed up). That’s how a winner wins.
