It's the solution on the user experience side, but not the backend/server side. For both infrastructure and idealogical reasons. These two things don't have to be the same.

Disney parks wants park visitors to feel like their exploring, but design in such a way that thepy don't actually stray that far from the preferred paths. Also they have clear sign posting.

There's no reason the fediverse can't design the opposite. Helping users into feeling like there's a set path, and that they're doing the right thing, while subtly encouraging exploration.

It's just the opposite of where all talent and techniques of internet software design are right now, so it's going to take some work.

Edit: Most people don't jump into a hedge to get off the main road, they find a small, unplanned trail or desire path, then learn to navigate the jungle when that path ends.

I found a copy of 1995's 'Desktop Toys' on archive.org, and ran it on linux with wine literally yesterday.

Windows 11 has an incompatability with 32 bit progams apparently.

I see your point, but I think we're in better shape than you estimate.

That said, we could always be in bettar shape, and as more is created, the less complete archives can be.

I got a Slimbook executive 14 (spanish company), which is identical to Tuxedo's infinity book pro 14.

Loving it so far! Not helpful on the vram front though.

The only thing that might do it ( assuming you want thin and light) would be a razer blade with a 3000 series nvidia they must be fully compatible with linux, otherwise their lambda labs tensorbook collaboration wouldn't work.

Seems likely! Not me, but my experience mirrors it pretty closely

It's roughly the same. I never used the tabbing features, so I can't comment. But until wayland came along, it was always there for me, working away just fine.

Thirded, foot for me!

I wanted to love it, but I keep getting crashes in mixed dpi environments on wayland.

I moved to foot instead. Bare bones, but unobtrusive enough. Shame the scrollbar is jank.

I'm right there with you, but I also remember hearing that this time last decade.

I think I need this, finally a real use for 'ai'.

The amount of how to videos you have to watch through, when all you want is one little piece of info you should be able to search or scan for has been a problem since before the internet figured out how to increase clicks by making a web page in to slides.

Can you link me a how-to video on how to get startedt and send me a summary from your working setup?

[–] med@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

Or even waydroid if you must have the app

Yeah, though there's some commandline shenanigans to get a tpm shim set up if you want it for windows 11
