But they just personally don't want that on their instance while they create the lemmy software that allows for everyone to speak their opinions.

I think pretty much any wireless headphone should work on Linux; my Airpods seem to work fine.

It's not fully supported: https://old.reddit.com/r/ValveIndex/comments/zs8snv/vr_on_linux_makes_me_sad/

No async reprojection

No bluetooth support for base stations power management

Does not work on Wayland, at all (Nobara, KDE)

Lacks the ability for you to continue using your headset if for some reason it disconnects and reconnects (base stations will not be detected, neither will any bluetooth adapters like the SW7)

A plethora of bugs

It feels like my headset view is on a delay? Maybe due to no async reprojection

I'm quoting this guy because I think that VR straight up doesn't work on NixOS, and I haven't gotten to testing my Index on any other os yet.

If you use the default cinnamon desktop on linux mint, theres an extension for it called gTile.

Not sure if it does what you want.

TBH I've always found the popup showing all the other windows when tiling in Windows to be annoying so I've never looked for it on Linux.

Sudo is root. It executes commands as the root user on every linux distro.

Yeah, I haven't seen a paywall in years with javascript disabled by default.

Cryptocurrency has its uses as unregulated currency, though that makes it easy to scam people with it.

Qubes OS is pretty secure, everything you do in it is in virtual machines. That includes putting wifi and usbs in separate virtual machines. The root virtual machine is completely separated from everything else so any attackers can't get access to it. There are also temporary virtual machines that you can use for unsafe stuff.

That sounds like a terrible idea if they find out.

In my experience, doing small changes to your nix config when using nix flakes seems to be faster. For me it only rebuilds everything when I run nix flake update before running sudo nixos-rebuild switch so it seems faster because it only does the thing that I changed instead of updating everything.
