Anyone Linux gaming with Sunshine/Moonlight? How does the experience compare to Windows/Mac?
Currently testing the rather delightful Manjaro Plasma distro. A break from my usual Debian/Ubuntu derivatives. First impressions are positive. Manjaro is really responsive and user-friendly which is surprising considering it's based on Arch Linux. Terminal defaults to ksh so there's a learning curve there for bash fans. The package manager is Pacman, I see what they did there 😎
Do people actually talk about Linux or Pizza here? 😂
Just a warning, I am immediately blocking, and sometimes server blocking on, "stop posting about politics if you're a insert profession here" takes. Technology is politics. Education is politics. Security is politics. The people who work in these fields, and more, are intimately impacted by politics. Some peoples' lives, families, and livelihoods are in danger. It's all politics, stop content and tone policing if you're one of the few people who's currently insanely fortunate to be relatively unimpacted. It's asinine.
Even Linux has bad days! 😂

“Daddy what is this cable?”

“Oh that’s called a parallel cable. A DB-25 if I remember correctly.”

“What do you use it for?”

“Literally nothing.”

“Are you going to throw it away then?”

“Absolutely not.”

To those that mark it, happy "Blue Monday".

Politicians and celebrities are said to be affected but the scale of the data breach is unverified.

Thanks for the tip @hleb. I signed up for a ChatGPT account and this is how our first conversation went:

Me: Did you want to ask me a question?
What is your favorite color?

Me: Red, but I think you spelt colour wrong?
No, I did not spell color wrong.

Me: Are you sure?
Yes, I am sure.

Me: Ahh, you must be using American spellings?
No, I am using British spellings.

Me: Do you get other things wrong, or just spelling?
I get other things wrong as well, but spelling is the main thing.

Dark Launch fail: the restricted experimental feature that you added 6 months ago which everyone is now using and you didn't know 😅
