I should mention that ARM for desktop has been slowly progressing for some time now prior to Apple, what I’m pointing at is renewed interest.
There’s probably a non-zero amount of interest as well from countries noticing that having America have essentially full control of the global processor supply might be bad for them, and companies like Microsoft responding with support that goes beyond only really supporting x86.
The recent uptick is probably the usual chasing of Apple’s recent products forming a current trend.
The M1 processors really showed how desktop ARM is completely viable. Even more than viable, it’s crazy power efficient and still performs actually pretty great.
Unfortunately, I think as usual few companies will really attain as much success as Apple did, but Apple also had been developing ARM chips in house for years for their mobile products.
Projected on a 2D screen, it’d look more like a normal venn diagram.
I want this specific update now. Actually so much better.
Yeah, but he’s also not the xkcd guy.
I want part 2 like, yesterday. It’s such a good game, I’d play it day 1 no question.
I’ve been tinkering with Hyprland myself this week. Your layout looks pretty nice.
Yeah, I feel that man. Hopefully it doesn’t happen again though.
Ugh I had to get an obscure PCIe card working a few years back and it was a huge pain. I believe I ended up having to find the broadcom chipset by model because the generic brand driver didn’t support it, then the arch repos didn’t have the driver for the model, and there were several aur packs available that I had to try one by one. And it was kernel module loaded, so each was a reboot.
Absolute hell of a time, probably about 5 years ago.
I’ve had this happen. I never did figure it out, personally. I distro hopped a bit and eventually ended up back on Arch and it didn’t happen again, so I guess it was a bugged install?
Journalctl might be a great friend here.
Especially a decade ago before archinstall
These days it is comparatively easy.

To-go is a hand-made wireless Sofle Choc with Kailh Choc Browns (internal stabilizers removed). It uses my own custom modeled case, and a 2000 mAh battery on each half.
I’m not a nihilist defeatist. I’m a nihilist optimist.
Meanwhile, as they spring for that fancy new licensed product for marketing that cost 90 thousand dollars a year for a 1% increase in sales.
No, alcohol is pretty likely to damage the coating on your display. You’re not far off though. They’re basically just water.
Just use distilled water. You can get it from the store and put it in a spray bottle if that makes it easier to use.
I look forward to 5-10 years from now when the people who were kids now start pointing to this acquisition as the negative “turning point” for Blizzard because they liked Overwatch 2.
He joined Unity in 2014. I don’t believe for a second that a board of investors agreed on anything for that long.
Jetbrains, all round. Datagrip is way faster and easier than SSMS for day to day queries, Clion does a great job in almost anything compiled, PyCharm makes it easier to manage large Python code bases over standard, the list goes on. Their software is expensive, but so so good.
