Oh, no, that's just the dip during working hours for the other timezones

I use aura, BTW.

I might be wrong, but doesn't SSE require you to explicitly use it in C/C++? Laying out your data as arrays and specifically calling the SIMD operations on them?

Plasma on Wayland does have HDR support now... But I don't have a way to test how good it is, and I think it's both still unfinished and severely lacking support from applications. But hey, things are improving!

I wouldn't count on Adobe support though.

For a while, maybe... But the two distinctions I'd want to make is that, one, that's also mostly the time you'll spend learning what you need to set up as part of your system, and two, things that might be out of your control on many distros. I'd also say that by calling it a "meme distro" you're lumping it together with Hannah Montana Linux and similar.

I will certainly say, however, that I'm rather annoyed by all the people saying "Bro you can set up arch in a few minutes just run archinstal it's easy"... Not only do I not believe it's that easy when you don't know what you're doing and need to actually use the system, but that also seems to run counter to the point of arch. I think there's at least two popular arch derivatives meant to remove the enthusiast aspect and provide a streamlined experience, so why recommend arch to new people if not as a learning experience?

Calling Arch a meme distro is unnecessarily insulting. I imagine the same applies to Gentoo, but I haven't used it myself. It's an enthusiast distro, for people who want to have control over how their system is set up while accepting the responsibility of having to set everything up.

I absolutely agree with recommending against it for somebody's first experience - but if you're willing to read through the guides and troubleshoot issues, you can learn a lot about how things work on Linux. It's the kind of distro where you will have issues, and they will usually be due to your own mistakes.

I do think the phrasing is complicated, IIRC Hetzner moved from monthly to hourly billing recently, so they probably had to have legally well-defined terms while also wanting to do a monthly-based system in hourly terms.

I think it's only for the EU, and the other browsers don't have a solution ready - porting their engines for iOS is a lot of work, which takes time, and might not even be worth it when they still need to maintain the safari-based version for the rest of the world.

The wiki tells you what you need on arch, and what you need it for. Those packages also don't seem to have kernel-specific or dkms versions, so seems like they're not kernel modules.

Mind you, the setup is clearly not monolithic, with different components for different purposes, including alternative options. On top of that, each distro will make different choices - Arch provides the components as packages and puts the responsibility of installing the right ones on you. Some features might be built into kernel drivers, like working video output, but Vulkan support clearly wants a dedicated driver.

Here's what you need for Arch, for more context: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AMDGPU

I like Valve, but I will point out what's been said before - Valve has a stake in making Linux gaming better, since it enables the Steam Deck to exist and prosper. They could've chosen other options that don't help the community, but they didn't choose this entirely selflessly, since they reap the benefits from not just their own work, but also that of the open source developers.

Good peanut butter is just 100% ground up peanuts, soooo....
