How is NVIDIA on Wayland nowadays?
  • It depends. GNOME on Wayland + Nvidia runs great. But if you try the tiling manager camp, you will run into several issues in sway, hyprland. Things like having to use software mouse because insert nvidia excuse and high cpu usage by just moving the mouse.

    Well... I don't know, I would recommend GNOME on Wayland or maybe KDE, haven't tried the latest Plasma 6 release, but outside that, avoid it.

  • Apple Explains Why It Won’t Make iPhones With Replaceable Batteries
  • Fuck water, I want to change my battery.

  • How does everyone feel about Samsung phones?
  • Samsung smartwatches don't work if you have an iPhone. That's like... wtf? BTW I got an S23 and a Galaxy Watch. Love them but... come on Samsung, what the heck!

  • Audio server recommendation?
  • Love Roon. I also have Navidrome in my server but found out a docker image of RoonServer and my gosh, I love it. I need a webapp to control it from my Linux desktop, otherwise, perfect (and expensive).

  • Spotify alternative
  • If you want, you can self host an Navidrome instance and listen to your music in your devices with Substreamer (in fact, any subsonic compatible client works with navidrome).

  • Bell curve of Linux distributions
  • I read "Debian is for servers.". WTF?

  • How long will the last Intel Macs be supported? macOS Sonoma gives us some hints
  • In my case, I have a Mac Mini Server 2011 but I use it to listen to music in HiFi. I haven't received my DAC yet, but when it comes, perhaps I will swap to a linux distro. Sound in macOS is soooo well made.

  • GitLab is down
  • Oh shit, I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD MY DAILY UPDATE OF VERY IMPORTANT PACKAGES FROM GNOME to compile myself just for the sake of having THE VERY CUTTING EDGE OF THINGS.

  • Wish me luck as I install Arch on an old netbook

  • macOS Sonoma Brings Apple Password Manager to Third-Party Browsers
  • Good to know, Apple's security and privacy settings are good... giving the fact that they DON'T share any information that they harvest from you, which is a completely different thing than NOT harvesting at all. They like their customers data so much that they embedded encryption tools in their dedicated hardware design.

    Regarding the Apple Password Manager, it is a good tool but ultimately I prefer to self host a solution agnostic to a company in which I hold no ability to speak or vote on their future. I recommend Bitwarden and a VPN (Wireguard) to access your vault.

  • Red Hat: why I'm going all in on community-driven Linux distros.
  • The misconception of Debian as an "outdated" distro is... alarming. IDK but I am running Debian 12 (coming from latest Fedora) and I don't feel any sign of early deprecation or that an already "old distro". It's smooth, stable and usable, like things should be if you use your computer to do other stuff and you rely on your installed software to be there for you when you need it.

    People tends to freak out if the latest packages aren't installed. Stop it, please, security patches are more important than having the latest Gnome/KDE version. Perhaps if we stop selling that idea in Youtube videos, newcomers to this space will not be rushing to install the latest things without knowing if they are worth and really good distros like Debian, which is NOT a corporate backed Linux Distribution, will get more traction.

    (PS: in Fedora, you are a guinea pig for future RHEL updates and ultimately, more profits for IBM)

  • why did you switch?
  • Back in the day (1999/2000) Linux seems to be a small niche, fun and novelty. I started with Turbolinux :D
