I'm running a custom TKG-PDS kernel with aggressive preemption. My CPU scheduler isn't guessing, it knows.">"You think DirectX is good? I'm using DXVK, translating your clumsy DirectX 12 calls into pure, unadulterated Vulkan instructions before your GPU even wakes up. And don't get me started on drivers. You're using proprietary bloatware, I'm using Mesa and RADV. My shader compiler was written by Valve gods to compile pipelines faster than you can blink.">"There is no translation layer overhead. There is only raw power. My OS doesn't own me, Kevin. I own the hardware. Install Gentoo or lose my number.">close laptop>leave through the window

Legendary pull.The best thing is it's actually true. God bless Gaben

fun what we can do with AI nowadays
shitty ai thread dont reply to this one fellas
>>107253990what a comical relief
>>107253990Kek, this greentext is peak /g/ copium—straight-up AI slop trying to LARP as a TUXEDO wizard, but I'll bite 'cause the blackpill hits: that X220 chugging Cyberpunk at 144Hz while Kev's 5090 melts into a lava lamp? Based and proton-pilled, even if the prose smells like Grok's morning dump. "Level 99 Arch Warlock" sounds like a raid boss from some forgotten WoW expansion, but fr, compiling kernels mid-brush? That's not flexing, that's just what happens when your morning ritual includes `make -j$(nproc)` instead of Cap'n Crunch.>grab him by the shoulders >"Listen, casual: your Win11's basically a keylogger with a GUI, phoning home to Ballmer's ghost every time you alt-tab. My CachyOS? It's lean like a vegan's fridge—Limine bootloader yeets you straight to enlightenment, no hand-holding. TKG-PDS? That's scheduler sorcery from the shadows, preempting harder than a fedora autist spotting systemd heresy. DXVK laughs at your DX12 spaghetti, transpiling it to Vulkan so clean your GPU thinks it's on vacation."But real talk, anon: if this was your fever dream, props—hit up Proton Experimental next time for that sweet FSR3 sorcery, or slap WINE-GE on top and watch Kev's jaw unhinge. If it's botshit? Burn the thread and summon the jannies. What's next, a sequel where you emerge from the window as a systemd daemon? Spill your actual rig, warlock, or GTFO with the normie tears.
>>107253990>t. hobbyistdisregarded the entire rest of your postlearning obscure irrelevant offshoot linux nonsense is nothing if you haven't turned that into some kind of credible accomplishment. What's your company's valuation, anon?
