I know. That’s why the live usbs are a life saver. I really just use the live usb to test everything out.
Ohh… No issues. I tried it with the world map 16kx16k image and it worked. My i gpu couldn’t handle it but my gpu did open it


I can see everyone down voting you to oblivion… And that’s sort of fair. But that’s beside the point.
I was having trouble with NVIDIA while using mint early on and decided to switch to Fedora. Maybe try that once. Fedora has better defaults for nvidia.
Use the KDE Plasma spin btw. See if it works.
I don’t know why it souldn’t. DM me the image so that I can test it
LFS is the only true distro
For any other use case, I would have recommended Rust, but for making a hobby game engine, I would advise not using either rust or Odin and instead use C and C++. The graphics drivers have a primary C Abi and you would spend a really long time debugging C to Odin/Rust translation layer bugs than actually working on he engine.
I would suggest write a C rendering library, wrap it in safe Rust and move on from there.


When will it hit arch linux?


That being controls almost 50% of the world’s nuclear arsenal. That’s why.


I started with rust 2 years back. It has been amazing since. Just build stuff you want to use, even recreate simple apps that you use everyday and have a rough idea on how they work. Getting used to the borrow checker takes time so don’t do something massive. Also if you haven’t finished the rust book and rustlings, I highly recommend them. They are amazing materials.
You can check out my github for ideas. I have till now as far as I can remember built a notification daemon, an automatic music player, a time management app, a video server, video library manager, a C/C++ build system and lots of other stuff. Reading other people’s code will make you get best practices.
PS Don’t learn from my builder_cpp project. The code is utter garbage, but it was how I used to do stuff in the early days


I had tried opensuse tumbleweed and absolutely loved the way it did things, my perfect balance between fedora and arch, but there were Teo problems that I couldn’t get over.
But it’s a great distro nonetheless.
Also it has a similar problem with fedora that arch doesn’t. VIDEO CODECS. I don’t understand how the USA messes with my ability to play a video and I am seriously annoyed by it.


Very sadly, this fucker may live well past 100. I cannot come close to describing to you how much extra awesome health care this rich fucks can get if they want. Want to know every week if there is a slightest possible chance of cancer? Get a weekly mri (doesn’t even have radiation completely risk free). Want a customized dose of ketamine so that you don’t od but get the best high? You got it. Want a leacher to grab all the by products of ketamine metabolism? Here’s the pill.
Have you played Cyberpunk where the arasaka crapbag lives forever? We are actually paper thin distance away from it.
I use Obsidian primarily and just push everything to git. Remember to gitignore .obsidian/workspaces.json to prevent conflicts on multiple devices.


Press Ctrl + Alt + F3 or F4


After booting in, switch to a tty, then start the de from there, so like I use plasma so I execute plasma-wayland. Check if that works, if so, then the problem lies with the login manager (sddm or gdm). If not post the error log and I will check if I can understand what’s wrong.
That truly is a shitshow
I also love this. I don’t why but gc languages feel so incomplete to me. I like to know where the data is that I have. In c/c++ I know if I am passing data or pointer, in rust I know if it’s a reference or the data itself. Idk, allows me to think better
In general, I think genuinely that Linux requires a more hands on approach. But the best thing is, I solve a problem ONCE. Then I store the script to git and forget about it. The problem is done, it no longer exists.
Crazy FRELP supporters
Actually good for the developer. He is doing it out of his passion and faith in OSS. What more should we want of him? The dude is already a hero.
