@tschak There used to be a time when Nvidia GPUs gave the best experience on Linux. However that hasn't been the case for over five years now. Nowadays, I recommend AMD GPUs if you are building a Linux machine.

That said, if you are sitting on a system with an Nvidia GPU, I might recommend that you try out PopOS. That distro is developed by System76 who sell Linux machines with Nvidia GPUs. They provide install ISOs specifically for systems with Nvidia GPUs. That will probably be your best bet.

@mntmn @LinaroLtd Ooh, a proper Linux tablet. That's super exciting news!

@cas Seeing as I have a FP4 and like postmarketOS, consider me very interested. Thank you for your hard work!

send some kernel patches... these improve charging on sdm845 and enable support for the smb5 charger found on snapdragon 855/865 and a bunch of other socs (including the fairphone 4)

@tschak I you are using the same RNG implementation on all platforms (perhaps roll your own) and the same random level generation procedure, it should be possible just to just transmit the seed to use for a level. Then all the platforms should all end up with the same level on their end.

@tschak If you like Lovecraftian horror, might I recommend a fishing game called Dredge. I played through it recently and it was a blast:

@thomasorus you nailed it. That's a classic pixel art technique there, but it really makes the subjects in the foreground pop out.

@EC64 That parallax scrolling background looks really nice. Consider me impressed.

@thomasorus Are black and white the only options? I feel like if you were able to use option 3 but fill with a dark gray, your subjects in the foreground would pop. Failing that. I guess a thin white border around the periphery of your subjects with a black background.

@mntmn Hey, I know you develop computers, but I think I also recall you using KiCad in your development. You might want to check out this guys KiCad setup as he seemed to indicate it helped his productivity:

He talks about it a few minutes into the video just in case you want to skip over the Amiga-related stuff.

Hey everybody, I just finished up and published my next video. I'm revisiting the compiler project I talked about previously. It's been a lot of fun to work on and I hope you all enjoy it: youtu.be/uGessbJjW3Y

@frameworkcomputer We challenge AMD—and NVIDIA, Micron, Samsung, SK Hynix, and everyone else in this space—to not give up on socketed memory. The future should be upgradeable!

@mr_creosote I wasn't filtering stuff as you are, but my experience is that boosts from people you follow will show up no matter what. So if you have some ideological disagreement with said person and they keep boosting stuff of that nature... Well I personally stopped following people like that and my problems went away.

I guess my recommendation is that you do the same.

@1Bit I think this was your best video yet. Excellent content and great presentation. I hope all the enthusiasts out there get a chance to watch it.

I wanted to make this video for close to 2 years, but I first needed the experience with the computer and to find the words.

5 reasons why I got a F256K from Canada (back in 2023)
from Foenix Retro Systems.

@1Bit I'm jealous! I'm still waiting for mine to arrive. In the meantime at least I've got a JrJr to play with. Anyhow, that's a fantastic setup sir, ten out of ten.
