What distro do you use and why?
  • I recently installed OpenSuse, I have been using FreeBSD mostly, but have used linux through the years. I decided to go with an rpm based distro and I've always likes the chameleon mascot of Suse. I'm used to Debian based linux, so it's been a slight adjustment but it's been nice and smooth. I'm running Tumbleweed right now and all my Steam games work, as well as my 3d Windows applications via wine. It just works* I am too old and tired to spend time tweaking anymore.

  • The Horrors Persist

    I like this saying but don't know it's origins.

  • Best practice is to create a user just for gaming.

  • What are the best proprietary/paid apps for linux?
  • Maya, the 3d software.

  • A teen said a deputy threatened him as he filmed his mom's arrest. A jury awarded him $185,000.
  • Holy shit, this was because someone reported her mom for not wearing a freaking helmet!?!?!

  • What's your favorite terminal?
  • 9term is what I use the most. Once you get used to the Plan9 way, you kind of like it. Sometimes I use Terminator as well. Konsole is like Terminator, both are good. They are both nicer than kitty for me. I tried kitty, went back to Terminator as it has menus to edit things, not just a text file.

  • Which OS do you use for your homeserver?
  • I have a VM on my FreeBSD desktop with Bhyve. I have 2 ThinkPads, an x61t & x201t that run it. I also have a Raspberry PI3B+ that runs it, and is my web server.

  • Which OS do you use for your homeserver?
  • FreeBSD & 9Front. BSD for my media server and 9front for my web server.

  • Blender lag with AMDGPU, FreeBSD

    I have a 6750XT with drmkmod515 drivers on my FreeBSD 14. The gpu drm is working, as games run fine but Blender, the 3d software, does not. It lags like a mofo. Has anyone had this issue and/or found a solution?

    Can you add new instances here usually?
  • Is there a user guide somewhere? This should probably be in the sidebar.
