12·2 days agoThe suggestion and response are both meant humorously. It clearly isn’t actually a good answer because it doesn’t actually solve the problem, except in some passive-agressive far-off-in-the-future way.
I follow a huge number of artists on Bandcamp which I mostly discovered through Chiptunes=WIN (which unfortunately seems to have erased itself from the internet), and the occasional collab album is enough to keep gradually discovering new artists.

Nouveau is dead, it’s been replaced with Zink on NVK.
In my experience, nouveau is painfully slow and crashes constantly to the point of being virtually unusable for anything. The developers agree, as in the last couple months nouveau has been phased out of Mesa entirely. More recent Mesa versions now implement OpenGL on Nvidia using Zink on NVK, and the result is quite a bit faster and FAR more stable.
If your distribution currently still ships a Mesa version which uses nouveau, I would personally recommend you just stick with the Intel graphics for now.
what a horrible day to have eyes
Aside from checking the kernel log (
sudo dmesg) and system log (sudo journalctl -xe) for any interesting messages, I might suggest simply watching for any processes which are abnormally high while the system is running slow. My initial approach would be to usehtop(disable “Hide Kernel Threads” and enable “Detailed CPU Time”), and seeing which processes, if any, are eating up your CPU time. The colored core utilization bars at the top show how much CPU time is being spent on what: gray for disk wait, red for kernel, green for regular user process, etc. That information will be a good starting point.

I think that’s called Omegle.
Additionally, it is known that cows are mammals. Therefore, by transitivity, we can show that coconuts are mammals. QED.

i was using one of these to connect my laptop to my “speakers” (an old stereo set) as recently as 2019, lmao
The “B” in “Boot” looks really off, the inside of the big “O” is lighter than the rest of the sign, and the kerning on the bottom text is all over the place.
