Correct, it’s because the government found a cash cow with trucking companies. If I recall something like 80% of diesel cost is tax. Truckers pay for our roads and bridges, to a point.

Regardless it’s an i7 that is 15 years newer than my amd fx, and the fx wasn’t a good cpu when it was new . I don’t recall the i7 model off the top of my head

I was told these machines have that feature “disabled” but I trust that as much as a politicians word.

Thats fair

The mind is a muscle. Don’t ignore it. Especially now, if you use your mind you’ll be light-years ahead of ai addicts.

Maybe people should actually learn to use their brains so they can read slightly more difficult articles. Holy shit are we gonna have some idiots running around in 10 years. Didn’t think we could get dumber but here we are. (I’m not including people with learning disabilities obviously, they may need an article written or summarized differently to grasp it).

Yeah exactly or they just say we are trying to be superior and annoying tech autists xD

Agree

If these are truthful, I will always be looking for this badge.

Sadly people will lie and we cannot catch them once ai becomes too good.

Thats the thing…there’s no way ill convince people to get off discord now that they just got comfortable with it all.

Wanted to try bazzite but on my 13 year old cpu and mobo it wouldn’t boot. Mint ran perfectly.

You have vr games working on linux? Im surprised

Sounds like windows in America. Screw ms!

Tbf if you play games like pubg or bf1 bf5 etc , you need windows. Otherwise, windows would not really be needed at all.

This is really neat, but much too expensive for me

It works, but performance suffers for games etc.

You wont lose access from switching. I have the same scenario. Multiple drives, coming form windows. However, your drives are probably formatted NTFS which doesn’t play nice with linux. You will want to backup and then reformat them as EXT4 before long. Thats probably the biggest pain with moving to linux. But it’s not that bad. I recommend getting an external backup drive or maybe a cloud backup for a month to have somewhere to put your files before you switch fully.

I made the switch a few months ago after using linix maybe 13 years ago. I rarely boot windows now.

I find flatpaks really annoying. Even using flatseal to allow perms, I have constant issues. But I’m a noob.

Yeah this doesn’t seem right. Im not sure my router supports running a vlan and allowing certain services through to lan

I just saw that i have a vlan/iptv setup that I can apply as a bridge on the guest network the tv is on. That seems right ?
