No, it's also pirating high-quality shows and movies so I can watch them without buffering/low resolution and pirating e-books and comics and manga and whatever else I want. Then I suppose I might also use drawing software (also pirated btw) for drawfaggotry. Mac can do all of this, I think, hopefully. It can't be that bad.

I don't understand people who cannot use linux as their OS. I "tinkered" maybe once eight or so years ago when I was in university, all I have done since then is update it periodically and otherwise my system administration is almost entirely limited to installing/uninstalling packages.
I even switched distros in the meantime while switching to a new computer, copied over my configs from the old install and went about my day.

If you want to be a ricefag that considers customisation your day job, you're welcome to it, but there's no reason to use linux this way unless you specifically want to.

I wonder, is it feasible to virtualize linux on a macbook and basically just use the VM as your main computing environment, delegating macOS to a hypervisor role? Would the overhead be too much or would macOS being designed as a flashy desktop-first OS make it get in the way of being a hypervisor?

True
>>
>>107831905
Portuguese and English are seperate branches on the family tree of European languages and neither can be said to be a copy of the other.
But if either is going to be labelled as 'cheap' then I definitely assign that to English, which feels like a dirty combination of Germanic and Romance languages rather than Portuguese which is more pure in its Latin roots. So if that's what you're trying to say then I agree with you.

or nix-ld if you need some custom dependencies and don't wan't to use "steam-run" command every time you start a program.

It's unrelated. Steam-run is named so because it's using steam nixpkg's code related to custom FHS environment created by steam to launch non-patched binaries in NixOS. This environment is universal, obviously. You can even add new dependencies to steam-run, if some of your binaries is using packages not installed and used by steam-run-free nixpkg by default. But it's not so comfy to use as nix-ld, because it will either have steam related options in your configuration.nix (steam-run-free don't need the installation of Steam, in opposite to steam-run which does), or nix specific code to override the list of needed packages for steam-run-free nixpkg.

Either way, I prefer to use steam-run-free and static linked libraries for binaries, just because I don't want to have FHS globally available in my system. Though I guess a better way to lunch binaries, in my case, would be nix-ld with nix-alien-ld for local nix shell environment for every binary not patched for NixOS.


Anyway, use steam-run-free nigger and shut up

any suggestions? i don't want to use the secondary pcie slot. my current gpu works fine in the primary pcie slot. i tried setting it to gen 3 and gen 4 instead of auto too with the 5090 and that didn't work (afaict the secondary pcie slot only goes to gen 3)
