Meta’s llama models are generally open. In fact Meta is the main megacorp that’s driving open-source AI right now. Everyone else keeps their models proprietary.

The more we use and recommend Linux the more of a chance we get of first party support in the future!
I don’t think that has ever been the case. Hardware vendors are not very likely to listen to the whims of a tiny fraction of retail customers, especially the kind which don’t make them much money. Institutional clients are the only one who can have any such sway, and that too is a stretch in most cases.
Whatever push desktop Linux support may get, it will be coming from enterprise customers. So if you have any influence on your company’s IT dept get them to ask for it, especially since this is a golden opportunity as the dissatisfaction with Windows is at an all-time high.
Here.
Use Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC until it lasts (~2027 iirc). And pray that Linux gets enough first-party support from hardware vendors till then, otherwise we’re properly fucked.
culturally they either serve others or expect to be served
As an Indian it’s amazing how you perfectly hit the nail on the head considering how limited your exposure has been. Most Indians themselves never realize this tendency of theirs throughout their lives.
Writers are people, not AI that improves its output quality the more money (hardware) you throw at it. The writers of the Halo TV show should have just been replaced with an entirely new team that actually understood the source.
Debian bookworm (12) ships with version 525, so that’s all you’ll get officially.
Debian bullseye (11) is the one that comes with version 470. So clean-installing that is the best bet.
Or you can try to download a driver package from Nvidia’s website and try to manually install it in an overcomplicated process that involves patching your kernel with dkms. In my personal experience this almost always breaks things and is not recommended.
This is one of the drawbacks with Debian’s “stability”. Every stable version of Debian is a standalone, monolithic bundle of software that rarely allows for version changes.
If possible I’ll suggest you shift to Mint. It comes with a dedicated GUI driver manager for installing and switching multiple driver versions.
Yeah there are lovely solutions for everything if you can self-host, but the general crowd only has standalone websites hosted by some brave pirate captain.
With regard to ebooks, a clean Kindle-friendly website that immediately downloads the .azw3 file for any book selected.
No, though it is weird that you feel like you should ask such nonsensical questions in public forums.
NYT detected, appeal to attention rejected.
Bluesky and their AT Protocol sound much better.
They follow a federated model quite similar to Mastodon, except with better feeds powered by a variety of user-choosable post ranking and content discovery algorithms. It is the true federated Twitter/X clone.
From other launchers like Itch, Epic & GOG as well?
There is ChimeraOS too, based on Arch.
The problem with Linux is that you will always have to tolerate a nontrivial section of games being straight-up unavailable, of games breaking, running suboptimally and requiring hacky solutions to run, and the complete absence of first-party support from hardware manufacturers and game developers. It’s not suitable for HTPCs despite having terrific UI unfortunately.
Is there a universal launcher like Lutris available for Windows? I was looking to build a gaming HTPC and want to interface with it with just only a controller, just like a console.
What does it have over base Arch?
Good idea, hope this does not deteriorate the quality of education. Corruption gets very rampant in public education when there isn’t constant and vigilant oversight.
It’s Pichai’s handiwork from what I understand. He was in charge of it before becoming CEO according to Wikipedia.
It’d be better if they went after literally every other AI corp than Meta in this case. Meta is the only one that’s ironically releasing open-source models and leading the way for open-source LLMs. I don’t want Meta to stop doing this.
