  • I think it’s the right course of action. If they impeach him he’ll refuse to go and it’ll be Jan 6 on steroids. Riots.

    The better way will be to let him screw things up so bad that MAGA voters realise they were wrong. And the drive behind the movement will disappear. Rather than cause escalation.

    He’s already done that in part by raising costs of life with his tariffs and war.

    Ps I’m in no way supporting the neoliberals, I’m very progressive too. But I don’t see how an impeachment will end well.







  • 3 months isn’t bad though. Especially since it’s going to be locked out of changes so in 5 years it will be 5 years and 3 months out of date. The bigger problem with rocm is that they cut off older cards way too soon.

    I bought a radeon pro vii brand new from a shop (granted it was a runout sale) and it was already cut off. It still works but not supported.

    AMD can’t keep complaining everyone focuses on CUDA when they don’t even bother to support their own product. It supports very few cards and they get cut off way too soon.

    Nvidia supports even midrange consumer cards and they keep supporting them a long time.








  • I know but I don’t really care whether my OS is good for normal users. In fact the more it is the less I’ll like it.

    Normal users love someone taking control and all their data and telling them what’s what. A “Linux for the masses” will be inevitably pure trash, something akin to ChromeOS now (which is kinda already linux for the masses). They literally want all the things we hate. For a company to know everything about them, to take all their data, to tell them what they can do and they can’t so they feel ‘safe’.

    As soon as Linux becomes a masses thing, it means lots of money can be made off it, and companies will jump on it to enshittify it as much as they can. So I’m really hoping that “the year of Linux on the desktop” will never happen.





  • I think if Linux becomes something for the masses it will no longer be for me. So I’m hoping that won’t happen.

    End users just want their hand to be held by some kind of corporation. Happy to give up their information and privacy. To have no choices in interface etc.

    Basically, Linux for the masses will look exactly like ChromeOS. Completely unusable for a power user with a need for privacy and control.
