/c/café daily chat thread for 30 July 2023
  • All the common ones, including Arch (of course) :P

    Ye I am using Nvidia, so that didn't help. Usually I'll hop into Linux distro every year as my attempt to move away from Windows, the most recent issue I can recall is mixed monitor refreshed rate not playing well ie. 144hz + 60hz monitor combi.

    By default, X11 uses the lowest refresh rate and apply that to both screens - OK fine. Then I switched to Wayland, the refresh rate issue gone but I noticed some apps, including Discord doesn't seem to play well, random flickering and shits. Switched back to X11, managed to fix the issue after hours of Googling. At that point, I was like meh - too much effort to get things to work for Linux. Back to Windows for my day-to-day usage, especially gaming.

    Essentially you'll want to decide to go with Simplified or Traditional mandarin, Pinyin vs Zhuyin. Taiwan and HK use Traditional, you'll learn through Zhuyin, while China/SG/MY (and many others) use Simplified, learnt through Pinyin. Ignore dialects eg. Cantonese, Hokkien all that for now.

  • Mainly Windows, tried many flavors of Linux desktops before as well but the need of troubleshooting random problems have really put me off. My main PC still runs Windows, macOS for work laptop.

    Running Windows in my UTM, not really using it but just in case :)

  • Yes, been working fine. Again this is just a 'fun' attempt, if it goes down - I can always jump to another instance edit - alamak, of course is 18.3 for me cos i'm viewing from my own instance.
