Trust me, if your employer wants to know if you’ve been coming into the office or not, they can easily find out without needing Microsoft Teams to tell them about it. They can see what IP address your machine is connecting from. And if you work in a building with secure access they could also just pull your badge-in history to find out if you’re actually there or not.

I know it’s not terrible, but there is a performance disparity there that you can’t ignore. If someone is spending $1000+ on a high end GPU I think it is fair for them to expect a level of performance that’s a little better than “fine”.

Yes, I think it would upset quite a few people. A lot of great men and women have worked and lived within its walls. It’s a pretty meaningful symbol to Americans.

Yeah I understand that things have improved a lot. But it’s the 10-30% performance hit in DX12 games that keeps me from wanting to dive into Linux as my primary OS on my gaming machine. If they can get that closer to parity with Windows, I’m all-in on Linux for life.

Nothing really wrong with them if they offer the performance and features you want. But I am a high end user and I also use some software that’s really reliant on CUDA. So they’re not really winning in either the performance or the features department for my personal use.

Still waiting for nvidia to pull their heads out of their asses and fix gaming performance on their GPUs under Linux before I make the jump myself. And no, I don’t want an AMD GPU.

I think you’re a little mixed up. It is currently illegal for a regular pot smoker to own guns. The supreme court is looking at potentially getting rid of that restriction. So if they did, I think it would actually reenforce your friend’s love of Trump.

The way the law works currently it’s just a mechanism to remove gun rights from people and to tack on extra bullshit charges to anyone who happens to get caught with a little weed and also owns guns. Sincerely hope they can actually change this law because it is almost entirely used for bullshit.

It’s the nvidia performance issues that keep me on Windows. I’d love to use an operating system that values and respects my privacy. But I’m not willing to take a large gaming performance hit to do it. That day this gets fixed I am dropping Windows and never looking back.

One of the biggest things keeping me from jumping into Linux as my primary OS is because of nvidia’s performance issues, particularly with DX12 games on Linux. I’d be taking like a 10%-30% performance hit. I know the games will “run” but I want them to run well, that’s why I spend so much money on my GPU.
