Installing Linux is so simple nowadays that fixing the bootloader is a level higher now

This is honestly the only reason Linux is not my only OS. I have a laptop with an integrated and dedicated nvidia rtx3060 gpu, and Linux has trouble with the Nvidia drivers and I get stuttering in almost all games and 3d applications.

I went into a discord specialised in lenovo Legion on linux, and even they couldn't help me, though they were very helpful. My requirements aren't even insane, I just want to slice files for my 3d printer without issues and play a 2d browser game from time to time.

I'm still debugging it, it mug have to do with the power management firmware. But this is not ready for the mainstream consumer if its necessary to go this deep.

I've done some more digging and indeed, the AMD integrated GPU is being used. Optimus seems like a good option, but then apparently I'd have to use x11 as the desktop renderer because Wayland doesn't play nice with nvidia.

As far as I can see, x11 will be deprecated not too long from now?

I don't have experience with wayland yet, so I'll need to check if it's available on my installation. Do you now how I can run Firefox in wayland?

The drivers are the latest officially supported Debian ones, they should not be the main issue here. But I can give it a look, thanks!

In the Netherlands, almost all houses have a thermostat. I don't know anyone that doesn't have one

I guess what I'm really trying to do is make sure that whatever happens, if the vpn fails (tun0), there is no more communication with the Internet.

It does, but later I have the rules to counteract those, for the VPN specifically: sudo ufw allow in on tun0 sudo ufw allow out on tun0

So that would open that up again, or am I wrong?

That makes sense, but it's possible that the VPN connection drops for a second, and then it can't re-establish it, right? How would I deal with that?

In my experience, copilot is one of the weakest tools right now. I want to like it, as I have a license at my job, but it's really hit or miss. Perplexity hasn't steered me wrong yet!

I've had good experiences with perplexity as an AI tool that hallucinates a lot less. It's basically a search engine that them feeds the information into a model for interpretation, works pretty well!

Do elaborate, it's it something that would benefit all men?

This is another level, thanks for sharing!
