Windows having its .DLLS in the SAME folder as the application made software preservation SO much easier.
Linux and its idea of moving everything to /lib/ conflicting with others makes it SO fucking hard to port stuff and this is ONE of the reasons why Linux is LESS maintained software wise.

I love linux, I want it to do better, But this shit does NOT help anyone.
The error means your libc is too old, upgrade to 2.38 or later.
My gentoo:
Code:
# readelf -s /lib64/libm.so.6 | grep GLIBC_2.38
   266: 0000000000054250   723 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   17 fmod@@GLIBC_2.38

   802: 0000000000000000     0 OBJECT  GLOBAL DEFAULT  ABS GLIBC_2.38

Edit: What @⠠⠠⠅⠑⠋⠋⠁⠇⠎ ⠠⠠⠊⠎ ⠠⠠⠁ ⠠⠠⠋⠁⠛ said, the developers built it on a newer distro than the installed system.

Yeah I was wrong im sorry.
 
https://archive.ph/t6v7D -- I'm just putting this in the Linux thread because I'm not going to write a big post about this, but if you want to know why "anti-systemd weirdoes" care so much, there's a bunch of retarded leftists in this Lobsters thread explaining how systemd is the key link in the chain that corporations are planning to use to lock you out of your own PC just like Stallman prophesied. Naturally, they're super excited, and not sure why more people aren't as hyped on these new security features that people are working on.

im kind of confused by this link the only post i saw mentioning systemd said they were working on improving tpm and secure boot support on linux
the argument in that thread is that anticheat can (and does) restrict what software you can run on your computer, false flagging when you have shit like afterburner running
 

Hard agree with this. To me the vscodes, and intelliJ's are completely unusable. It's seriously distracting compared to what I'm used to. Having all that extra stuff going on just feels like it's in the way.

Also I don't like how bloated and slow they are.

Nothing in particular wrong with Vim, but I've been giving a "properly configured" Nano a try and it's pretty distraction-free still. I'd say if Vim seems too convoluted, this is fine and makes a lot more sense than using vim-tiny which is jarring if you go with barebones defaults. Vim-tiny is basically just classic "Vi-without-the-m" and a few meager modern features. I don't HATE vim-tiny, but I found plain-default classic vim a lot more digestible.

How many features does a goddamn text editor need? Linux Mint's "Xed" is more restrained.

I guess it depends on the kind of person you are and what you expect from your text editor. I know people that love the "integrated" feel of IntelliJ or VSCode. I like it too, only I'm not a proprietard and Doom Emacs is literally just better than any "IDE" out there. Neo/LazyVim is a close second but a touch too troonerific for my tastes.

Doom works well. But I get everything I use in emacs when I try it every once in a while with neovim. And it has the benifit of not being single threaded, and also a tui program, which fits in with how I like doing things.

Like I even have fzf like pickers, and file management added to neovim, but I end up just writing, and quiting, then I cd to the next place I need to go, then open neovim again. Because I forget I even have all the other stuff, it just feels more natural so I do it without thinking about it.

That's the other thing with emacs. I end up doing something similar when I try it instead of staying in emacs. Because it's not how I do things normally. So I end up closing emacs when I'm done with the file I'm editing without thinking about it.

Yeahp, that's what it always boils down to. We all have a preferred way of doing things that might work for us but not others, nothing wrong with that (as long as it isn't proprietary malware). I liked neovim for the time I was using it, but not leaving the editor & having everything in there all at once is very appealing, though not appealing enough for me to run EXWM.
 

Imagine buying a computer with soldered in storage. Mac niggers, really are the truest form of nigger cattle.

Then he has to show a bench mark against the soldered in ssd, because the the mac faggots would probably say something like "they solder it in to improve performance". The fact you would even need to buy something like this for a computer is sad by itself.

and you need the ssd to charge the battery.....

I dont understand why he chooses to embarrass himself time after time in order to keep Linux down. "So you see, we downloaded an LTS version of Ubuntu that was released months before the gpus we are going to be testing, and it seems the GPU don't work? This is clearly Linuxs' fault and not ours, we are just giving you an idea of what to expect."

Anyways the Aussie guy made a far better video yesterday, even when doing it half assed.


He also had a driver issue, except it was an actual problem. The legacy drivers of NVIDIA seem to be broken on Bazzite. The video clearly shows the weak points of Linux gaming. Older linux native titles for some reason getting priority over proton even when its broken, Nvidia, modern titles, and raytracing.

So, I finally figured out why Linux would hang on shutdown. You'll never guess what cause was. It wasn't systemd. It wasn't Nvidia.

It was fucking TPM.

I can't fathom what Rube Goldberg-style logic makes having an enabled TPM cause shutdowns (but not reboots) to hang, but only after the computer has been on for more than a couple of hours. Which, by the way, was an incredibly fun issue to try and Google.

Anyway, that was the last real issue I had with Linux. Suck my dick Windows 11, you somehow managed to ruin Linux for me.

give it a day or two. several times now I was absolutely certain I fixed that issue only for it to crop up again when i was least expecting it.
