From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Oh. Womp womp.
I need to refamiliarize myself with the state of AI libraries without CUDA. Last I checked it was still a problem. I'd love to never buy Nvidia again.
I'm not too well versed in the AI/ML industry, but from what I hear CUDA is still the far prevalent / preferred backend - I don't believe its impossible so to speak, but it definitely involves having to dig a bit deeper for more alternatives.
I hear its also somewhat common to use an AMD GPU for your actual desktop, but then also have an Nvidia GPU strictly for usage of CUDA but of course that's a bit more expensive and also still involves keeping up with Nvidia's hardware.
