Do not follow this advice OP. Never install the drivers manually from Nvidia unless you’re an expert and have a very specific reason to go this route.

With Mint, just use the driver manager app and you’ll be good.

They are not. You have to install the proprietary driver from the GUI driver installer app with 2 clicks.

Wadjet Eye games help fill the void :(

For recommendations on how best to organize:

1. Joining and organizing within your local community to create connections with others is incredibly powerful, and will lay the groundwork for effective resistance.
2. We can effect things drastically with a general strike. This would massively impact their income streams, and can bring a fascist government to its knees if done on a large enough scale.
3. Join the IWW and attempt to unionize your workplace, so that the general strike is even more effective (plus you’ll get better pay and benefits!)

If we put in the work, we can resist this and we can win. Join up with allies while we still can easily!

I’ll grant you that language is potentially a dogwhistle, but on their blog, they post about Earth day and Sustainability, which is currently vilified by MAGA.

If I had to guess, their marketing team is trying to play both sides.

Without more clear evidence of their politics, I’ll probably continue to recommend them if they get people to stick with saving water, as ultimately that’s the opposite of what Trump’s policies are trying to do.

As someone who dislikes traditional low flow heads that tend to icepick you with little streams, I highly recommend high sierra showerheads. I don’t know how they pull it off, but it absolutely blasts you with water while still being low flow. Like I prefer it to any other shower head I’ve tried, low flow or not.

They make one with an adjustable valve that let’s you dial in the perfect amount of flow too.

Didn’t centos users switch to Rocky or Alma?

even with wine/yabridge getting paid ones with licence protection running is a mess.

Honestly, because I’m not a fan of intrusive DRM anyway, I say Yarr, matey 🏴‍☠️

I know that’s not a solution for some, but until there’s more Linux native VST’s, it’s a viable path for those willing to take it.

Running Windows VSTs (virtual instruments) in a DAW like reaper for making music.

Depending on the GPU, you may need to install a PPA and install a newer kernel to get access to more modern GPU drivers to play games, but only if it’s very new hardware.

for anyone else, Vscodium is vs code with all the Microsoft parts stripped out.

AFAIK, an ssd uses different amounts of charge per transistor to store a 1 or a 0. An unpowered ssd would seemingly eventually lose that charge signifying the 1 or a 0, and thus lose the information it represented.

Haven’t looked into that thoroughly though, so could be totally off base.

The court scene in Drumhead where Picard refutes accusations of being a traitor by essentially quoting an IWW mantra and core tenant of Anarchism.

Bonus follow-up discussion with Worf after the trial.

Additional bonus, the IWW still operates to this day, and will gladly help train and support anyone to unionize their workplace, blue collar or white collar.

Lemmy-Federate is a project that automatically subscribes a single bot account from participating instances to essentially pre-seed a community across those instances. The net effect of doing that is posts made to that community will show up on those instances /all feed, and the community itself will show up if users on those instances search it (instead of having to use the lemmyverse.net community search to discover it exists, and then manually federate the community to their instance by searching the community URL in their local instance’s search bar).

Once a real user from a participating instance subscribes to the community, the bot account will unsubscribe.

It makes it much, much easier to get a new community rolling, as otherwise it could take quite some time for people across instances to discover it and be federated naturally (which is even more of an issue on smaller instances, where there may not be a large/active local community to kick things off).

GIMP with the PhotoGIMP overhaul and Resynthasizer plugin (content aware fill) is pretty darn solid. Not perfect, but a massive upgrade from stock gimp.

Just want to chime in that a Krita developer has been working on a complete text tool overhaul from the ground up for the past 5 years or so, and it is just about ready to be pushed into the beta versions, so that pain point should be resolved soon, thankfully.

Don’t sell yourselves short, your instance has a lot going for it due to your efforts!

• Active admins who regularly participate and are easily reached if issues come up
• Regularly update to newer versions of Lemmy
• Appealing instance theme
• excellent server up-time
• Sought out Lemmy-federate to make it easier for new communities

All that takes time and effort to maintain, and a surprising amount of smaller instances can lack that. So cheers for all that you do, appreciate it man :)
