Need a good resource to learn linux


I just fucking can't with windows anymore. I'd preach about it but I imagine you've heard it all. I have minimal computer expertise.

I use my PC mainly for streaming, downloading torrent files who's copyright you don't need to worry about, and light gaming. Usually just messing with New Vegas mods.

If someone knows of a good YouTube channel or guide or something written for andelder millennial caveman I would be grateful.

Edit: after having been recommended mint OS and giving it a quick Google, I got this! I haven't fucked with anything linux scince the early aughts. And holy shit has that come a ways. Guess I remembered back and got a little intimidated. Mint is downloading now. As a small f.u. I booted up edge to do it. Ty you beautiful people!

It's a weird time to live in, but not confusing. It's obvious to see that what you really want as a vendor is control over the operating system stack itself, and relying on Microsoft has become challenging.

In essence what NVIDIA is doing is bringing it's entire GPU driver stack open source side, so that entire industries say go on buying tons more hardware.

Us Linux enthusiasts get to reap the benefit, what with entire open source movements bringing libraries to Linux side first that can turn GPU hardware into whatever tool you'd like. Projects like PyTorch and ffmpeg run as first class citizens on Linux.

Windows still relies on either shared DotNet stack (which will make a monkey out of you - cough cough) or the nearly ancient MSYS2 build environment. Microsoft of course prefers you run all that software inside their Linux container system known as WSL - and there's a reason for that.

The Linux graphics stack is looking more "feature complete" by the month, bringing up the question of where you actually get the best hardware support. This is a good question to have.

Now, if only the open source desktop movements could clean house, figure out funding and get their stacks in order, we might finally, for the umpteenth time, maybe see the year of the Linux desktop.

I grow old with anticipation, but seeing what NVIDIA did in the before time versus what they do in the now puts a smirk on this haggered face.

Onwards to the future.

Supposé attentat de #Washington DC, des anomalies dans cette tuerie d'un couple d'israéliens
1) Il n'y a aucune trace, aucune photo, aucune vidéo des corps des victimes Yaron #Lischinsky et Sarah Lynn #Milgrim, qui auraient été abattues devant le musée juif de Washington, vers 21h un mercredi soir, à 2km de la Maison Blanche.
Aucune image des corps n'est sortie, ni de la scène du crime.
Ici une image près de la scène du soi-disant crime, qui parait un peu bien préparée avec un beau drapeau d'israel bien en vue...et sur le substack de Ken #Klippenstein, jeune reporter qui a comme par magie obtenu le manifesto du soi-disant tueur, qui nous indique donc qu'il pense que le manifesto est authentique car il est signé de Rodriguez et sa création est daté d'avant le crime (faut vraiment être très bête ou très en recherche de clics ou très en mission pour sortir ce genre d'arguments....la date de création d'un document numérique est modifiable...)
.
2) La fameuse et seule vidéo du tueur supposé Elias Rodriguez criant "Free Palestine" a été filmée par Katy #Kalisher, qui se trouve être une militante pro-sioniste, elle sortait du musée juif avec un compagnon, Y. #Kalin, lui aussi interviewé sur BBC, foxNews, CNN... Il est le frère de l'organisatrice de la soirée au musée juif, Jojo Kalin.

Ensuite #Netanyahou a fait la comparaison très médiatisée entre "Free Palestine" et le cri nazi "Heil Hitler"
En clair ==> il veut faire passer tous les militants pour la Palestine pour de supposés néo-nazis.

3) Les médias font croire que le couple victime aurait participé à une soirée pacifiste au musée juif, soi-disant consacrée aux efforts pour l'aide humanitaire à Gaza....ça sent fort le bullshit....., or apparemment elle a été organisée par le Comité Juif Américain, un groupe très pro-sioniste, mais plus avenant et diplomate que l'extrême-droite israélienne, bien que le fond reste le même. Un sionisme radical. Le couple victime a participé à la soirée.

4)Les sionistes sont des tordus et des spécialistes des attentats sous faux drapeau (false flag) et autres manipulations pour influer sur l'opinion public et arriver à leurs fins, cela ce n'est pas discutable.

Voir des tweets de Yaron #Lischinsky ==> qudsnen.co/served-in-military-…

Pour le moment, moi je doute fort....
Si vous avez des éléments ou remarques....welcome !

[ META ] What is the community's opinion of Pop!_OS?


It’s an Ubuntu downstream maintained by Linux box maker System76 which is targeted for both general usability and design/media applications. They will soon be debuting their own home-spun desktop environment, Cosmic DE, which is highly anticipated by the Linux community.

How does the community here feel about this distribution and the company that has brought it to us? How do you feel about the projects that they’re working on, and their goals for the distribution moving forward?

I am on Pop!_OS, I ran sudo apt install cosmic*.

Don't worry, you're not missing out on much, running video games, or any OpenGL thing including 2D games and GPU-accelerated terminal emulators is a bad experience, and alt+f4 isn't implemented, and f11 to fullscreen is janky, and theming for buttons and such is clearly alpha.

The promise of an Arabic-supporting, Rust based, GPU-accelerated terminal is too attractive, however, as I was teared between multilingual terminal, Wezterm, Alacritty and Kitty for a while.

The first is horrible at everything but supporting languages, the second is really janky, the third doesn't support tabs, the fourth has bad theming and customization.

CAD Software Suggestion


I am currently on win10 but have been toying with mint and liking it. I intend on fully switching over soon. I have also been toying with the idea of some simple 3D modeling, like making custom parts for projects around my house. Maybe using a CAD software to generate stls for a 3D print or using it to spec out parts for a design made out of aluminum extrusion (like 8020) little things like that. I was thinking about getting a solidworks hobbyist license for 45 a year but solidworks doesn't support Linux. I could keep a Windows dual boot HDD, but fuck that. Any suggestions on a CAD software that fits? Have a gaming PC with a 3060 and some beefy hardware.

Any "How To" that doesn't just use Rufus isn't worth the page its text is rendered on. Rufus can do Linux boot disks, but is indispensable for Windows boot disk utilities. It's one of the only ways I know of to make a Windows ToGo installation (equivalent of a Linux Live USB), which I used to install Windows on a friends SD card for their Steam Deck so they can dual-boot.

rufus.ie/en/

If you're looking to make a Linux boot USB from Linux itself, BalenaEtcher is probably a better bet since Rufus is Windows-only.

github.com/balena-io/etcher

I've noticed there's tons of how-to's for making a bootable disk on Windows, hardly any for Linux. Perhaps we ought to remedy that?

Linux for Kids?


I'm thinking about building a desktop with one of my kids and I would really prefer to put Linux on it. My wife is not a fan of the idea, however.

I'm wondering are there any good Linux distros/utilities for children that include parental control features and things like that? And that are easy to use for a child who has only used basic Chromebooks in the past?

For reference the child is under 12.

I abhor the idea of things made "for kids". I learned to program when I was 10 on a Commodore 64. And we would wear an onion on our belt which was the style at the time.... Sorry, where was I?

I'd just install a normal distro. Let the kiddo break shit and learn to fix it. Keep backups for recovery and probably isolate the system on your network for if/when kiddo does something stupid. Talk about security, being responsible, etc. We learn through mistakes not by playing in safe walled-gardens.

The FDA committee is considering restricting covid vaccines to over-65s, or from small children, or which vaccine technology will be available. They may also require placebo trials of all new vaccines (inherently unethical, as control groups must go unprotected; this will slow release to an absolute crawl way behind viral evolution.)

Health isn't binary; covid can take a life without killing.

Last day for public comment: the FDA vaccine advisory committee plans to restrict covid vaccine eligibility to age 65+, require placebo trials (guaranteeing unprotected control groups and vaccines debuting so late they may be irrelevant.)

Given how quickly immunity wanes in the wake of a rapidly mutating coronavirus, which we're now collectively doing nothing whatsoever to slow, that sounds like going back to March 2020 to me.

(ok i see, you're using the term CPU colloquially to refer to the processor. i know you obviously know the difference & that's what you meant - i just mention the distinction for others who may not be aware.)

ultimately op may not require exact monitoring, since they compared it to standard system monitors etc, which are ofc approximate as well. so the tools as listed by Eager Eagle in this comment may be sufficient for the general use described by op?

eg. these, screenshots looks pretty close to what i imagined op meant

now onto your very cool idea of substantially improving the temporal resolution of measuring memory bandwidth...you've got me very interested with your idea 😀

my inital sense is counting completed L3/4 cache misses sourced from DRAM and similar events might be alot easier - though as you point out that will inevitably accumulate event counts within a given time interval rather than an individual event.

i understand the role of parity bits in ECC memory, but i didn't quite understand how & which ECC fields you would access, and how/where you would store those results with improved temporal resolution compared to event counts?

would love to hear what your setup would look like? 😀 which ECC-specific masks would you monitor? where/how would you store/process such high resolution results without impacting the measurement itself? details pls 😁


It seems pcm-memory can do it on Intel CPUs and uProf for AMD.

Other than these I've mostly seen benchmarking and profiling tools (like perf) but I guess these are not what you're looking for.

Ubuntu Snap Hate


I've gathered that a lot of people in the nix space seem to dislike snaps but otherwise like Flatpaks, what seems to be the difference here?

Are Snaps just a lot slower than flatpaks or something? They're both a bit bloaty as far as I know but makes Canonicals attempt worse?

Personally I think for home users or niche there should be a snap less variant of this distribution with all the bells and whistles.

Sure it might be pointless, but you could argue that for dozens of other distros that take Debian, Fedora or Arch stuff and make it as their own variant, I.e MX Linux or Manjaro.

What are your thoughts?

in reply to Tekkip20

  • proprietary server (snap store), unlike flatpak
  • snapd only allows one server (but it is foss so you could just patch it), unlike flatpak
  • nonexistent security on snap store, multiple times malware, unlike flatpak
  • no sandboxing without apparmor and specific profiles, so not cross platform, unlike flatpak
  • the system apps are also requiring apparmor, so not cross platform
  • they lack granular permission systems afaik
  • they concur with flatpak, which is horrible as we need a universal packaging format, not 3
  • seemingly no reproducible builds?
  • no separation between all, opensource, verified repo, unlike flatpak
  • they pollute the mount list with all the loop devices

And people complain abour resource usage etc, but that is just separating apps from the system. Flatpak does the same.

Un sondage de l’institut israélien Geocartography révèle une réalité terrifiante :

– 82 % des Juifs israéliens soutiennent le nettoyage ethnique des Gazaouis,
– 56 % veulent expulser les Arabes israéliens,
– 47 % sont favorables à l’extermination des Gazaouis dans les zones capturées par l’armée.

Ce n’est pas seulement une majorité qui valide le crime, c’est une société entière qui glisse, en pleine conscience, vers une idéologie d’épuration.

Mais surtout, c’est cette société malade que nos dirigeants soutiennent inconditionnellement.

Lindsay Lohan - Rumors (Official Music Video)


"Rumors" is a catchy pop track by Lindsay Lohan, released in 2004 as part of her debut album, "Speak." The song addresses the challenges of dealing with gossip and public scrutiny, showcasing Lohan's vibrant personality and vocal talent. The official music video features a fun and energetic atmosphere, with Lohan dancing and engaging with her friends, reflecting the carefree spirit of youth. "Rumors" became a commercial success, solidifying Lohan's place in the pop music scene and resonating with fans who related to its themes of self-empowerment and resilience.

Lyrics:
Saturday, steppin' into the club
The music make me wanna tell the DJ, "Turn it up"
I feel the energy all around
And my body can't stop moving to the sound
But I can tell that you're watching me
And you're probably gonna write what you didn't see
Well, I just need a little space to breathe
Can you please respect my privacy?

Why can't you just let me do the things I wanna do?
I just wanna be me
I don't understand why
Would you wanna bring me down when I'm only havin' fun?
I'm gonna live my life (but not the way you want me to)

I'm tired of rumors starting
I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lyin', sayin' what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me?
Why can't they let me live?
I'm gonna do it my way, take this for just what it is

So here we are, back up in the club
People taking pictures, don't you think they get enough?
I just wanna get all over the floor
And throw my hands up in the air to the beat like (what?)
I gotta say respectfully
I would love it if you'd take the cameras off of me
'Cause I just need a little room to breathe
Can you please respect my privacy?

Why can't you just let me do the things I wanna do?
I just wanna be me
I don't understand why
Would you wanna bring me down when I'm only havin' fun?
I'm gonna live my life (but not the way you want me to)

I'm tired of rumors starting
I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lyin', sayin' what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me?
Why can't they let me live?
I'm gonna do it my way, take this for just what it is

I just need to free my mind (my mind)
Just wanna dance and have a good time (good time)
I'm tired of rumors (rumors)
Followed (followed, followed, followed, followed, followed)
But they follow me
Why can't they (they, they, they-they-they) let me live? (Live)
Take this for just what it is

I'm tired of rumors starting
I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lyin', sayin' what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me?
Why can't they let me live?
I'm gonna do it my way, take this for just what it is

I'm tired of rumors starting
I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lyin', sayin' what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me?
Why can't they let me live?
I'm gonna do it my way, take this for just what it is

What to Do When Your Career Hits a Low Point?
What do you do when your career is in the doldrums and you are becoming more famous for your stints in prison than your once-promising film career?

In the case of Lindsay Lohan, the answer is to pose for a full nude spread in Playboy, of course.

Hugh Hefner has confirmed that Lohan will be the cover girl for the January edition of the magazine, with her shoot inspired by the iconic Marilyn Monroe Playboy shoot. “It's a classic tribute inspired by the original Tom Kelly nude pictorial of Marilyn Monroe, which was featured in the inaugural issue of Playboy," Hefner stated.

However, it has been reported that Hef was dissatisfied with the initial shoot Lohan did for the magazine, prompting Playboy to call her back to reshoot the entire spread, as he believed the images were not up to standard.

This is not the first time the Mean Girls actress has channelled Monroe for a magazine shoot; she appeared on the cover of New York magazine as the 1950s icon in 2008. Unlike that shoot, the Playboy spread features no props such as towels or flowers to cover Lohan’s modesty.

The troubled actress is seeking some positive coverage following her five-hour stint in jail this week for once again breaching the terms of her probation. She will appear fully naked in the magazine, which hits newsstands next month. A spokesperson for Lohan stated that the full-frontal nudity shots are “very tasteful,” and that readers will see a very different side of Lohan in the accompanying interview.

#Palestine / Peru opens criminal investigation into Israeli soldier

#Peru has opened a criminal investigation against an Israeli national accused of participating in the genocide in Gaza during the 2023-2024 Israeli war on Gaza. The investigation follows a complaint filed by the Hind Rajab Foundation (#HRF). The accused is alleged to have systematically destroyed civilian neighborhoods as a combat engineer in the #IDF. The HRF has prepared hundreds of cases against members of the Combat Engineering Corps to submit to national jurisdictions .
