Snap is stupid, slow and lame. I stopped using Ubuntu just because I hate snaps. I just want to install my programs the normal way and avoid issues.

In my experience they're the same from a reliability standpoint. Stuff on Arch will break for no reason after an update. Stuff on Debian will break for no reason after an update. It's just as difficult to solve reliability problems on both.
Because Debian isn't a rolling release you will often run into issues where a bug got fixed in a future version of whatever program it is but not the one that's available in the repository. Try using yt-dlp on any stable Debian installation and it won't work for example.
Arch isn't without its issues. Half of the good stuff is on the AUR, and fuck the AUR. Stuff only installs without issues half the time. Good luck installing stuff that needs like 13+ other AUR packages as dependencies because non of that shit can be installed automatically. On other distros,all that stuff can be installed automatically and easily with a single command.
I use Arch btw.
If they never release the source, including all the fpga verilog files then this is pointless to the open source community.
Edit: actually I just realized my comment is kind of pointless. Even if he released the fpga source code, a thing a lot of projects like these never do, it still wouldn't be possible to reproduce one of these using only free and open source software. This is because the only fpgas that let you program them using open source software and not a locked-down windows-only bloatfuck program that needs an internet connection and licensing are the lattice ice40 fpgas. Tl;dr this can't be fully "open source".
I wonder if it would be possible to make an ice 40 based video card that could still do opengl.
Fuck yes. When normal modern video cards start costing too much for the common person to afford, at least we'll still be able to play quake.
Let's try to use the economy destroy the crazy country that has nukes. What could possibly go wrong?
I loved that game as a kid. Sadly, I didn't have the edition where the horse was even further away though.
Yeah well the other side also wants to take away our household appliances and our meat, and also everything else by enabling corporations to squeeze everyone dry even more than they already are.
China's has been "on the brink of something" for ages now. I don't see icbms flying over my head right now so it's probably not worth worrying about.
Cool, let's see if they backpedal on it a few months later like they did with cannabis.
Because if they're riding bikes they might not be buying $70k cars. How are the poor car companies going to afford to survive now? Someone think of the shareholders.
Idk, more and more people are switching to mac and ditching windows. If their m1 thing continues being successful they're going to have a more severe monopoly than Microsoft ever did. It's one thing to patch Microsoft's half ass attempts to embrace extend destroy Linux but that isn't going to work out as well anymore once all the mainstream stuff is quarantined to an entire different cpu architecture and computers that no longer use off the shelf parts.
Luckily the only software they really have right now that Linux doesn't is that s tier video editor and then no one wants to use their stupid Metal graphic acceleration so games are going to have a hard time taking off as well. Too bad most people think "command lines are too hard".
The common person is going to lose access to computers as we know them today if Apple wins. If it gets to the point where the only modem mainstream systems left are M1 macs, everything computer related is going to get 10x as expensive. $1000 for a potato ass MacBook Air is already obnoxious but when that's the only choice, that potato ass MacBook Air is going to cost $10k.
Probably stable diffusion. You can self host either stable diffusion or easy diffusion. Easy diffusion runs on stable diffusion but its easier to deal with, the only caveat is that it isn't compatible with lycoris models.
