Unfortunately, their story didn't end well.

And ofc it's just to raise their stock a little bit :) Big corpos are real life monsters

Could be both of those things as well.

Yeah, I'm currently using that one, and I would happily stick with it, but it seems just AMD hardware isn't up to par with Nvidia when it comes to ML

Just take a look at the benchmarks for stable diffusion:

Yeah, was just reading about it and it kind of sucks, since one of the main reasons I wanted to go Wayland was multi-monitor VRR and I can see it is also an issue without explicit sync :/

I have currently a RX 6700XT and I'm quite happy with it when it comes to gaming and regular desktop usage, but was recently doing some local ML stuff and was just made aware of huge gap NVIDIA has over AMD in that space.

But yeah, going back to NVIDIA (I used to run 1080) after going AMD... seems kinda dirty for me ;-; Was very happy to move to AMD and be finally be free from the walled garden.

I thought at first to just buy a second GPU and still use my 6700XT for gaming and just use NVIDIA for ML, but unfortunately my motherboard doesn't have 2 PCIe slots I could use for GPUs, so I need to choose. I would be able to buy used RTX 3090 for a fair price, since I don't want to go for current gen, because of the current pricing.

So my question is how is NVIDIA nowadays? I specifically mean Wayland compatibility, since I just recently switched and would suck to go back to Xorg. Other than that, are there any hurdles, issues, annoyances, or is it smooth and seamless nowadays? Would you upgrade in my case?

EDIT: Forgot to mention, I'm currently using GNOME on Arch(btw), since that might be relevant

I mean, we didn't choose it directly - it just turns out that's what AI seems to be really good at. Companies firing people because it is 'cheaper' this way(despite the fact, that the tech is still not perfect), is another story tho.

The frequency is not directly proportional to the wavelength - it's inversely proportional: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportionality_(mathematics)#Inverse_proportionality

Think of this as this: The wavelength is the distance that light travels during one wave i.e. cycle. Light propagates with the speed of light, so the smaller the wavelength, it means the frequency must increase. If the wavelength gets two times lower, the frequency increases two times. If wavelength approaches 0, then frequency starts growing very quickly, approaching infinity.

The plot is not a straight line but a hyperbola.

Meh. Just a few segments, that's all and not a full season ;-; One can dream though

Thinking about it from your point of view, maybe MS was right and Linux is a cancer too. Technically it behaves similarly to systemd, since most Unixes are actually Linuxes nowadays (excluding BSD ofc, but they are still in the minority, similarly to alternatives to systemd). It even is a binary blob as well!

Should every distro use/develop a different kernel? Should we focus our resources on providing alternatives and again have a multitude of different Unix versions, every incompatible with each other? Isn't it better that we have this solid foundation and make it as good as it can be?

Overall I think standardization of init is not so bad, just like adopting the Linux kernel was. It is actually quite nice that you can hop from distro to distro and know what to expect from such a basic thing as init process.

Anyways, in Linux land you actually have a possibility to replace it. Granted, it is not as easy, however there are plenty of distros that allow you to ditch systemd in favor of something else.

Yeah, I think most of the times, if you don't run very sensitive enterprise grade machine there isn't much point to it.

Maybe run it once in a while if you really want to.

I guess it isn't and that's the joke here.

Didn't knew before, but Przemysl has a lot of tradition when it comes to pipe smoking. Highly recommend if you ever visit Poland. There's even a small pipe smoking festival early July every year.
