That’s a great explanation! I guess I could use Ollama instead of lm studio, but this is also another command line tool without an UI

Don’t feel bad. It’s not the devs fault that we live in a strange timeline

Every few years, i come back to Linux to see how far i can get before hitting a major obstacle. Installed Linux mint summer last year to get away from windows.

First impression: Steam and proton are great, i can play my favorite game Mechabellum without any issue. Helldivers 2 otoh won’t work due to what seems to be an anti cheat tool.

Software development is also kinda good. Install vs code, let’s go.

But then the trouble begins: my brother laser printer that works out of the box with windows and macOS refuses to print. No error message or anything, just nothing happens. Next thing is that i want to use lm studio to host local llms, but they don’t have a full release for Linux, only a beta that is not available from the mint AppStore. There is an appimage available however, so i have to learn how to handle these. Too bad the Linux version does not support in app update, you always have to install the newest appimage manually.

I would like to develop an llm application using C#. I download the dotnet framework from the AppStore, but VSCODE is not able to find it. After investing several hours trying to find out why this is, i surrender.

And then, for some reason, my NVIDIA card breaks. I try to reset to an older version of the driver, but to no avail - i don’t know whats going on, but steam only shows if i deactivate hardware acceleration and games also will only run on the integrated graphics card.

I surrendered and went back to windows. See you guys in 2 years.

Edit: some spelling

Can you elaborate on this? I use logseq as an information dump and use tags and hashtags to associate the individual entries with a certain topic. I love that i do not have to think about the file structure (where do i have to put it?) and instead can just write it down immediately.

E.g: had a meeting with #name with regards to #project Z. We have a set of new requirements that need to be implemented in by Q3 2025….

Would this be significantly different in obsidian?

Except, i once encountered the variable HIVZwerg in an abandoned python script I had to maintain and it made me laugh with its absurdity.

The US is just Helldivers 2 in real life. A democracy managed by Elon Musk and people ready to die for „liberty“, „prosperity“ and „freedom“.

It’s a slow and constant process of onboarding people to signal. I managed to onboard my local gaming group into using Signal after Trump got elected.
