Why no arch install?
Why no arch install?
Been 100% linux for like 6-9 months now, these stories make me thankful for finally making the switch.
I’ve tried to make the switch 3-4 times in the past and was stopped by 2 main things:
The experience was so much better this time and I really have no regrets. I don’t imagine I’ll ever run Windows again outside of a VM
Nah. There are some nvidia issues with wayland (that are starting to get cleared up), and nvidia’s drivers not being open-source rubs some people the wrong way, but getting nvidia and cuda up and running on linux is pretty easy/reliable in my experience.
WSL is a bit different but there are steps to get that up and running too.
Agree with others, this guide is a bit more work than you probably need. I don’t really run windows much anymore but I did have an easier time with WSL like the other poster mentioned.
And just to check, are you planning on fine-tuning a model? If so then the whole anaconda / miniconda, pytorch, etc… path makes sense.
But if you’re not fine-tuning and you just want to run a model locally, I’d suggest ollama. If you want a UI on top of it, open-webui is great.
Tons of remote jobs out there, probably a higher percentage for startup jobs. Most remote places will have people in different time zones and some sort of core hours they expect people to be in, but having some discussion you’ll probably be able to find one that’s accommodating.
One good site to start looking:
Good luck

How does one train a cat to make waffles? Asking for a friend
Most steam games just work. Make sure to go to settings and compatibility and let it use compatibility for all games. Look at something like bottles for a front-end to let you set up and use wine / proton for other launchers, etc….
Rip up the Reddit contract and don’t use that data to train the model. It’s the definition of a garbage in garbage out problem.
Without looking I’m sure Louisiana is already bottom state in at least a dozen major education metrics. This ensures that ten years from now it will be even more.
Battle.net running in bottles works Ok. I did have an issue with battle.net running under X for a while, switching to Wayland worked. Whatever the problem was seems to have been fixed
Asahi only partially supports the M3 and I guess now the M4 is out (though only in iPad)?
Btrfs will be fine, I use btrfs on a standard arch install, timeshift for managing snapshots, works well.
Fwiw they’re able to do the same thing by the sound of someone typing a password across the room. Not advocating for fingerprints or anything, just these exotic hacks are everywhere
I thought I saw a headline last night that the democrats in the house said they would vote to table any effort to remove Johnson.
I just blue myself

Just to check, is the suggestion to get rid of TSA and not replace it? i.e. no security screening at the airports?
Is there any country on the planet anymore where that’s a thing? Any example of a working version of what you’re proposing (if I’m reading it right)?
Also
Disband TSA. It’s never been shown to improve safety
That sounds pretty far from true. The only way this is true is if TSA procedures have never prevented a single gun, bomb, etc… past a security checkpoint.
As reported by the TSA they stopped 6737 firearms, 93% of them loaded from getting into secure areas… in 2023 alone. They also conducted a passenger survey where 93% of passengers said they were satisfied with experience, 94% confident in TSA’s ability to keep air travel secure
Conducted a passenger experience survey with a sample size of 13,000 travelers at multiple airports across the nation. Survey results revealed that 93% of travelers were satisfied with the passenger experience and 94% of the respondents were confident in TSA’s ability to keep air travel secure.
I’m not sure what percentage of the 93% would feel the same way, but I will say if the TSA went away tomorrow with no replacement I’d no longer be flying on any airline that was unscreened.
Can I ask what the better working system would look like? I’ve seen plenty of the stories about TSA lapses, obviously security at the airports isn’t fun, but I’m not sure what an alternative system that works would look like.
I’ve been tempted to try and install plasma mobile on a tablet.
