the hardware companies i worked at that created & tested their products on linux, but refused to support linux had engineers that mostly didn't care one way or the other; they only cared about getting paid.

it makes me wonder why they don't just use slightly older gpu's ; there are so many out there.

you can only get it from your device and it creates a nasty catch22; you can only know if your device is supported if your already have the device.

i've been meaning to get into rust; but i'm learning that i lack motivation if it's not part of my job and becoming a sysadmin again doesn't require it.

i think it's because this style of social media is familiar to those of us who used bbs/irc/forums that were prominent in the 1990's; while the younger crowd prefers short form content.

good to know; i moved away 15 years ago and just assumed smartphones had made everyone's public awareness take a nose dive.

i was wondering if lemmings were too young or this movie too old for people to get the reference. lol

the redditors dominated all of lemmy's popular communities (especially asklemmy) and i recommended a different instance so you can see the unpopular communities that don't include their toxicity.

if you're more toxic then them, then you might want to stay where you are.

as a non-american you can be forgiven for not knowing that democrats have been doing this for the last half century.

there are technically several parties, but effectively only 2; republicans (like trump) and democrats. every time that there has been a political impass between the two parties for the last 50 years, the democrats have ignored their voters like this and sided with the republicans.
