  Any quirks that nobara might have for someone looking to switch from windows for a gaming pc?

  Some (possibly) relevant system specs:

  • Intel i5 9600k

  • RTX 2060

  • Two monitors (adaptive/G sync on my main).

  I’ve heard that multiple monitors and/or adaptive sync has some issues on some distros which is my main reason for asking.

  And a more tangential thought:

  I’ve also heard that Windows installs tend to fuck with linux installs. Is this the case when they’re on different drives? I kinda wanna just try different distros on a spare sata ssd, but my windows install is on my NVME which has a heat sync plate screwed over it, and I don’t wanna go through the hassle of pulling it out if it won’t make a difference.

  Sure, but have you ever tried to disarm a crab and lived to tell the tale?

  It’s also noteworthy that there’s situations where a persom could easily see and owl do a full 360 (and more) if the owl has it’s head turned one way and then turns it the other.

  270 in each direction for a total of 540 and all that.

  Please understand how small an elevator is, and how big fireball is. Your party is begging you.

  Famous last words.

  Which is great, honestly. Borogoves themselves are fine, but it’s not worth the risk letting them get all mimsy.

  Your meme is ancient and dusty and it makes me feel old. Stop it.

  Also the fact that the grain on the side of the shell is perpendicular to the grain on the top, and it changes where the cat ear comes up in front of it.

  Very telltale sign of AI is a change of pattern in something when a foreground object splits it.

  Not saying it’s always a guarantee, but it’s a common quirk and it’s pretty easy to identify.

  Thanks for confirming. I’m glad you mentioned it, cause it’s so important for teachers to create a learning environment that students want to learn from.

  My schooling was made a lot worse by teachers that had the “punish cheaters” kind of mindset, and it’s a big part of why I dropped out of highschool.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Clever, clever⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The implication I gathered from the comment was that if students are resorting to using chatgpt to cheat, then maybe the teacher should try a different approach to how they teach.

  I’ve had plenty of awful teachers who try to railroad students as much as possible, and that made for an abysmal learning environment, so people would cheat to get through it easier. And instead of making fundamental changes to their teaching approach, teachers would just double down by trying to stop cheating rather than reflect on why it’s happening in the first place.

  Dunno if this is the case for the teacher mentioned in the original post, but the response is the vibe I got from the comment you replied to, and for what it’s worth, I fully agree. Spending time and effort on catching cheaters doesn’t help there be less cheaters, nor does it help people like the class more or learn better. Focusing on getting students enjoyment and engagement does reduce cheating though.

  Legit question: how is that different conceptually to the random individuals all running Prime95? Could that not also be referred to as a cloud supercomputer?

  I do not like to add AI.

  I would not like it here or there.

  I would not like it anywhere.

  I would not add it in a handbag.

  I would not, could not, in a car.

  Not to a baby, not to a helmet.

  Not in my house, Not on a mouse.

  I do not like to add AI.

  Do you hear me Microsoft?

  Take your AI and go fuck off.
