linux probably has the best video drivers of any platform at this point (basically everyone else can do amd drivers better than amd) and windows didn't get workspaces until this last decade*


AMD added their drivers to the vanilla kernel OP.

when it comes to the opengl and vulkan implementation and shader compilers redhat/valve does a better job than amd

i'm getting rid of my last desktop linux computer within the next few months because i realized that I was only using it to access applications that run just fine in a server configuration.

spare video cards have extended the lifespan or outright resurrected so many of my PCs and servers that I refuse to throw any of them out

once I had to configure a server for desktop usage (not my choice but at least I get paid for it) and the onboard video was pretty terrible unless janky and laggy 640x480 graphics is your jam

hoarding is truly an american problem, as people are not educated to keep something it might be useful in future or something that won't be.

so you have those that CONSUME CONSUME CONSUME, and throw everything away or give it to some "charity" that pays out 99% of the money to the execs, or the ones that just hoard everything.

idk people seem to sell a lot of poo poo on fb marketplace and previously craigslist. like that seems to be the main thing people do with their old poo poo. of course they mark up things and have no idea what they're really worth but yeah.

but its true im american and i am guilty of the sin of "donating" old clothes to "charities"

for me the issue is that in x11 the vsync only synchronizes against the primary monitor or something, so you'll get tearing if you watch videos fullscreen on the second monitor

wayland is the way to go i guess, here's to hoping firefox implements vaapi before the new millenia

believe it or not they're actually (finally!) working on it. it depends on a feature currently only implemented for wayland (dmabuf) so it won't work if you're still on xorg.

not gendered at all though it assumes you have a mother
