All I hear about it is that it doesn’t follow the Unix philosophy of a program should do one thing and do it well. And while it does seem quite large and do a lot of things, out of all the times I have broken my system, systemd has never been to blame.

Buy videos are just a series of pictures. How do we sort this out…

Mm, that is unfortunate! I personally keep a Windows install around for VR as well, nothing on Linux runs the Quest 3 quite as well as Virtual Desktop.

The only problem with Nvidia is the lack Broadcast and Shadowplay. Not having their noise cancelling is unfortunate, but OBS can replace shadowplay. I know some people seem to have issues with Nvidia on Linux, but I believe they are a pretty small minority.

We’ll have to see if System 76’s Cosmic DE can stir up some tribalism again!

Iron Giant I believe. Though he’s not actually holding a mug of himself 😄

I do unfortunately still use it for my VR sim racing. But half of that is because I got a quest 3 as an entry point for VR. I’d love to get one where you don’t have to fiddle around with video compression and WiFi latency.

Hm, the the absolute least scary option would be to try it out on a live bootable USB. That’s not difficult, it’s the first step before installing pretty much any modern distro.

The second least but slightly more technically advanced would be to get a second hard drive and install Linux on that completely separately from your windows install. The technical part here is your BIOS will have a default boot drive and will boot from there on start up, so you would need to interrupt the boot and select which OS you want.

I personally went with the second option, as dual booting from the same had drive is a minefield with windows, as they have a tendency to wreck the Linux boot part. But when I swapped, I set the default boot to my Linux hard drive to get in the habit of using it, and if I ever need anything from windows nowadays (only VR) I select that on boot.

The lamp is rendered by small electric lights, be it LEDs or LCD. CRTs are in a bit of an grey area. But you can absolutely use a monitor as a light source by itself .
