You can search duckduckgo for Nvidia mok secure boot mint and you’ll see what I’m talking about.

“works for me”
That’s not a protip. A protip would be how you do that :D
RTX3060, I suspect this is the case for newer laptops, yes.
Me installing Linux Mint on a 2022 laptop with a Nvidia GPU (had windows 11 preinstalled, this was an alongside install). I disabled secure boot at first, but still had to go all the way back and set up my MOK keys and turn on secure boot properly with another password to unlock the GPU.
You can’t disable secure boot if you want to use your Nvidia GPU :( though. [edit2: turns out this is a linux mint thing, not the case in Debian or Fedora]
Edit: fine, there may be workarounds and for other distros everything is awesome, but in mint and possibly Ubuntu and Debian for a laptop 2022 RTX3060 you need to set up your MOK keys in secure mode to be able to install the Nvidia drivers, outside secure mode the GPU is simply locked. I wasn’t even complaining, there is a way to get it working, so that’s fine by me. No need to tell me that I was imagining things.
The point of federation is that there are thousands of instances that no monied asshole can just buy and ruin for everyone. If you like that, Reddit,twitter,FB,tiktok are just there…or just join one instance and pretend it is the only one. What is the problem exactly?
Because he used his money to turn a townsquare into truthsocial 2.0 and now is paying trolls to stoke division. He is not a good actor.
PS: just to be more explicit: there are amoral people who screw you over without even noticing it, that’s how the game was set up, ok. But that is not what Elon is doing. This guy went out of his fucking way and took a loss to ruin a platform for everyone. Think about that. Imagine going out of your way to hurt yourself so you can hurt others more. And this guy says he wants to manage a Mars colony and lead humanity into the future. Please, Jesus, no.
Reddit answers to shareholders and a board of directors. Each fediverse instance is run by its owner and negotiates with other instances to federate.
If some bigshot wants to own reddit or rule it like a totalitarian asshole, he can buy it and vandalize it if he wants to. If some bigshot wants to own the fediverse, good luck buying the thousands of instances that exist and they still wouldn’t get us, because we’d move to or create new instances.
It still may be possible for you to work around their bullshit minterpretations of ethics, but you’ll have to write a 5000 word essay on what ethics is, how it is applied, provide examples. At least in ChatGPT.
Welp, I guess I only have 3 videos left on youtube then, it was a good run. Then it’s off to invidious and when that goes, probably peertube will have enough content :)
Ok, when I said worse, it was from this point of view: in some subchans, I’ve seen some smart conversations and advice there among the 95% neverending jungle of slurs (they probably see that as a feature, not a bug). In yt: never, the medium simply doesn’t work to make people talk.
I only disagree with one thing on that: youtube is not a social media platform. It is horrible for discussions, topic discovery and organization, the comment sections and chat are worse than 4chan. It is a video diffusion platform, but not truly social media.
Anybody know where they’re going? I’ve seen some in mastodon, some in substack, some just on linkedin…but other than rss there is no easy way to follow a larger crowd of posters from different sources.
Negative interest rates do funny things to capitalism.
Yep, first is always best, like my CRT TV.
fair enough, I had not tested any other distros, my bad.
