It’s an NVIDIA specific term that is the abbreviation for GPU System Processor. It’s a RISC-V core that does all sorts of management tasks on a modern Nvidia card, mostly related to task setup, resource allocation, context switching, adjusting clock speeds, etc.

I bought a used gen1 Thinkpad X1 Nano. It is super light (<1kg), works flawless out of the box with Linux, and while I think it does have a fan I’ve never noticed it.

Based on the neofetch it’s a Samsung Fold Z 4

I don’t mind this. It’s unreasonable to expect them to provide a free service forever without any kind of monetization.

In a lot of modern work flows this is incompatible with the development pattern.

For example, at my job we have to roll a test release through CI that we then have to deploy to a test kubernetes cluster. You can’t even do that if the build is failing because of linting issues.

If that’s your attitude, then I don’t think this is going to work out.

Wine is not a company. People building and fixing Wine to support a specific piece of software are largely volunteers. Noone works at Wine. Noone does product support. It’s a free service created by volunteers.

That’s how most Linux software gets built. And none of these people owe you anything. No support, no easy to use config.

Frankly, you sound incredibly entitled and unwilling to listen and learn to everyone here who’s tried to help you.

To answer your original question: there’s no one global way to make Wine run all software out of the box. That’s why Valve spends so much time tuning different setups of Wine for all the games they support. CodeWeavers to some extent does that for non game software.

Doing this for the wide variety of Windows software out there is an impossibly large task and frankly out of scope for what most Linux distributions have as a goal or intended use case. If you want to run Windows software on Linux, there are many different projects that try to package or help you install the most popular things. But other than that, you’re free to try on your own.

I never did Rails but I used Ruby for many personal projects in the 2000s.

When showing stuff to my coworkers or friends, I often joked how I tried to make my code look like it was already gzipped.

Depends heavily on the market segment. I also work in Europe and in my 15 years as a software developer (the first 6-7 as C/C++ developer) I’ve never seen anyone use Visual Studio.

I have one of these, but only use it for SteamVR. Does this mean I can’t update either?

AFAIK, the drivers come from Windows.

Edit:

From the article:

Existing Windows Mixed Reality devices will continue to work with Steam through November 2026, if users remain on their current released version of Windows 11 (version 23H2) and do not upgrade to this year’s annual feature update for Windows 11 (version 24H2). This deprecation does not impact HoloLens.

Well fuck. This headset is the only reason I keep a Windows PC around at all.

Works for me in Belgium. Weird.

To quote the author himself:

Great, do whatever you want. Just shut the fuck up about it, nobody cares.

But then he proceeds to do the exact opposite and posts a vitriolic rant about how everyone who doesn’t use what they use is, in their words, and idiot.

I used them as well, and I know of at least 3 more coworkers who use them as well.

I got started when I got one for free with a used computer I bought. I’ve since then switch full time to using an MX Ergo (like OP) on my desktop, and a cheaper M575 I keep in my laptop bag.

I even game with them, and haven’t touched a computer mouse in probably 2 years.

The MX Ergo is far superior to any other I’ve used, highly recommended.

Have you considered supporting Sixel for images?

Where is this template from?

My lifecycle was roughly Gentoo, Mandrake, SUSE, Debian (sid), Arch, Vector, Arch, Debian (testing), Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, Arch, Ubuntu, Manjaro, Fedora, and finally Debian (stable).

I used to like to mess around with the newest shiniest software but now I just want it to not be broken.

What would you do if you had a million dollars?

Thanks!

Interesting! Got any links that explain how to set it up?

I just got a laptop with an RX 6700M 10GB ans am eager to try it :)

There have been some efforts to run pytorch and StableDiffusion on ROCm. Not sure if that could be combined with this.

Sounds similar to my most recent Nvidia experience.
