Why does Nvidia hate linux? (lemmy.ml)

So I’ve been trying to install the proprietary Nvidia drivers on my homelab so I can get my fine ass art generated using Automatic1111 & Stable diffusion. I installed the Nvidia 510 server drivers, everything seems fine, then when I reboot, nothing. WTF Nvidia, why you gotta break X? Why is x even needed on a server driver....

I use Ubuntu and Nvidia 3080 and the only issue I have had was when Steam updated their Big Picture Mode. I was using Wayland and it broke with the new Big Picture Mode. I had to switch back to x11 and it works well with that. I do hope Nvidia and Steam fix the Wayland issue. I'd rather use Wayland.

I have been using my Linux Gaming PC for for a couple of years now. I jumped ship with the ad riddled Windows 11. And I have been very happy with Steam/Proton gaming.

Gary Gygax created a game that changed that way I thought about "playing a game". He gave me worlds of endless adventure.

And my nerdy friends and I played countless hours. Thanks Gary.

Time to Move on From PS5?

I’ve been having some thoughts lately that I would have believed crazy just a few years ago. I’m starting to think it might be time to move on from my PS5 and triple A gaming as a whole. I’ve had a PlayStation from the PS2 all the way to the latest generation of consoles. I remember fondly time spent roaming the lands of...

I got a PS5 and built a Linux gaming PC. I have them both connected to a big TV and game on my sofa now. I figured that I should be able to play just about anything that comes out. I don't think the next Elder Scrolls will come to the PlayStation. And I am gaming more and more on my PC. Baldur's Gate 3 is preordered for the PC. I plan on exploring Faerun on my comfortable sofa and using my Xbox controller.

And Steam/Linux works very well. And know Steam has sales all the time.

Anyone know why they suspected this guy and was watching for him to get DNA to test?

And I like to eat my pizza crust with dipping sauce or melted butter.

Seems the vehicle tip and cell phone burner records lead authorities to him.

Republicans don't care about justice and right and wrong. In Alabama the Supreme Court told republicans that the African American population needed more representation with how the congressional maps were drawn. But republicans said no, we are going to ignore that and do it in our favor anyway.

Stop voting for republicans, they don't care about justice or democracy.

Larian made the Divinity Engine. It's very impressive and looks stunning. Replaying Divinity 2 I had forgotten the great music that is in the game. Lovely to listen to while I was exploring.

I have been replaying Divinity 2. I had forgotten how good this game plays and looks. AND I was watching a "Let's Play" of DOS2 and noticed I missed some areas and stuff I didn't know I could do. So much dept and different ways to do things.

I was replaying DOS2 on my Linux gaming PC with an XBox controller because I think the controller will play similar on Baldur's Gate 3.

Fun days ahead soon exploring the world of Faerun and Baldur's Gate.

Yea the cinematics was the only thing missing in Divinity 2. The voice acting is great. I think Larian knew this when they started Baldur's Gate 3 and made the big commitment to correct this.

I remember the Green Eggs and Ham story's point was missed by Ted. Hope he loses his next election and we never have to hear from him again.

Why devs consider Baldur’s Gate 3 anomaly, not new standard for RPG genre: “It’s Rockstar-level nonsense for scope” | Game World Observer (gameworldobserver.com)

A few weeks prior to its launch, Baldur’s Gate 3 looks like one of the most promising RPGs in recent memory. However, some devs are urging players not to rate all other games in the genre by such a high standard, appealing to Larian Studios’ unique combination of vast experience and resources.

It’s trans adults, too: GOP candidates now back trans medical restrictions for all ages (www.miamiherald.com)

Donald Trump had recently finished a familiar riff about banning gender transition surgery for children when the former president, speaking to an audience of Evangelical voters, moved on to something new: a policy that would affect transgender adults. “I will ban all taxpayer funding for sex or gender transitions at any...

A Christian Nation is very Un-American, but these religious nuts and politician craving power want this.

Stop voting for Republicans, they don't believe in our democracy. And be sure to vote like it matters, because it does.

Republicans/right wing Christians really would love a morality police to enforce their religion on us. But for now they seem to have the supreme court to help them with this.

How are Republicans trying to stop this, because you know they want to.

Idaho opts out of nearly $15 million that would feed children this summer. Why? (www.idahostatesman.com)

Idaho has decided not to participate in a federal program that would have provided $14.8 million to feed low-income students during the summer, a decision that impacts about 123,000 children in need, according to the Food Research and Action Center.

"people" = republicans.

There are many republicans that were against gay rights until a family member comes out as gay. They lack the ability for empathy for other people.

Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I...

They should start a national home insurance and compete with the private companies.

It is only going to get worse with climate change. We need public healthcare too. Companies are only interested in money/profits. That is what they do.

Hairyblue,
@Hairyblue@kbin.social avatar

We can have National insurance. And it may be the only option for us if the private insurance companies won't even offer it to home owners.

Not state, national

Didn't Stadia shut down. Did they refund you or transfer the game to some other platform?

How was you experience with stadia? Did you like the service?

That is too bad about Stadia.

The Steam deck is awesome. It has done a lot for the Linux community.

If you don't believe in having an abortion, don't have one. Don't make laws to force others to live by your beliefs. This is shameful.

Vote out Republicans. Women deserve the right of choice over their bodies

Are there any good Blu-ray ripping software for Linux?

I’m well aware that I can rip most Blu-rays with MakeMKV and then convert to mp4 with Handbrake; however, the former just rips everything raw from the disk so the file size is humongous and the conversion via Handbrake for just a single file is terribly long and puts a lot of strain on my computer....

I use make MKV on Ubuntu to rip my blu-rays to MKV files. And I play them in that format. They are big but I have space on my NAS drive.
