I personally love Rust, but since I’m already familiar with C/CMake, I just don’t think I need to “re-invent the wheel”. In this case, using the Rust wrapper option is more like “trying to put a winter tire around an all-weather tire”.

Any similar system for Kubuntu 24.04 LTS noobs/normies like me? I don’t know what “ebuild” is, but it sounds cool (of course, I could look it up, but I thought I’d just ask).
I’m not a dev-ops dude, but for work, I develop parametric CAD solutions and generative DNNs for CAD. Lots of linear algebra and Pytorch on the GNU-Linux side; lots of Grasshopper for Rhino8 on the Win11 side. Hence, I use Docker to separate my experimental build environments from my production ones.
I’ve been kinda maintaining my shit “by hand”, so to speak, for years now, and I think I’m ready for some automation in that regard.
- libsnorble-2-dev, a C library that the author only distributes as source code and therefore must be compiled from source using CMake
Of the available options, this is easily the best since I can use my own compilation flags to tune the library for my specific target architecture/CPU which can possibly change as the deployment profile for the business case evolves. Assuming it’s OSS, I can also fork and adjust the library itself for said “mission-critical” use case.
Also, the Google product being deprecated since '17 is too real 😅…
I think a lot of the plugin tooling for Unreal promotes bad practices with asset management, GPU optimization, and memory management. I’m trying to say that it allows shitty/lazy developers and asset designers to rely on over-expensive hardware to lift their unoptimized dogshit code, blueprints, models, and textures to acceptable modern fps/playability standards. This has been prevalent for a few years but it’s especially egregious now. Young designers with polygon and vertex counts that are out of control. Extraneous surfaces and naked edges. Uncompressed audio. Unbaked lighting systems. Memory leaks.
I’ve found that in my personal experience in experimenting with Unreal, the priority matches developing DNNs and parametric CAD modelling applications for my day job: effective resource, memory, and parallelism management from the outset of a project is (or should be) axiomatic. I think Unreal 5 runs exceptionally well when that’s the case. A lot of the time, one can turn off all of the extra hardware acceleration and frame generation AI crap if your logic systems and assets are designed well.
I know this is a bit of an “old man yells at cloud” rant, but if one codes and makes models like ass, of course their game is gonna turn out like ass. And then they turn around and say “tHe EnGiNe SuCkS”.
No. Fuck you. You suck.
“SyStEmD iS bLoAt…”
Programming with metal, or metal with programming?
Yes.
I’m not racist if I say I hate Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Religion is not a race, it’s fundamentally an assertion of an ontology based upon the primacy of the god of Abraham/Ibrahim, Yahweh/Jehovah.
The belief in the existence, omnipresence, and infallibility of such a being as described by their texts is a detriment to our species and may ultimately catastrophically destroy civilization.
One chooses to believe or continue believing this. One can’t choose their ethnicity. If I say I hate those religions, I’m saying I hate their ideas on how reality works, not where they’re from or what they look like.
LM studio or JanAI work very nicely for me as well.
Start saying no. If you don’t know how, start learning. It’s hurting everyone up and down the industry.
I am almost purely focussed on creating DNNs (“deep neural networks” for the unaware) and it’s almost always a nightmare work-wise, even without all the rest of the other crap.
I will repeat this until the heat-death of the universe:
Personal liberty and self-determination are assailed by many threats: the theocrats, nihilists, corporatists, fascists, and so-called “collectivists”. They all claim to be the true authoritative “voice of the people”.
Extreme authoritarian “leftists”, A.K.A. “tankies” (i.e., apologists for Lenin, Stalin, Mao, the CCP, the DPRK, Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, Xi Jingping, etc.), are threats to a free, egalitarian, and open society, are just as violently authoritarian as their religious, corporatist, and fascist competitors, and should be treated with the contempt, distrust, and ridicule they deserve.
They claim to speak and fight for the proletariat, promising a new utopia, never before seen, once their revolution executes the last “class-traitor”. In practice, once they’re finished with “seizing the means of production”, they’ll never relinquish control and become the new ruling class. Beware of their cults. Understand what they really are; power over everything and everyone, forever, is what they seek. They want you either as a true believer (a willing pawn) or dead, just like all of the other supposedly benevolent dictators who promised utopias throughout history.
They’ll assume the mantle of an enlightened elite post-revolutionary administration to guide the proletariat to their promised utopia of “each according to their ability, to each according to their need”. In practice, "the party leadership needs the most, because they’re obviously the most able” in reorganizing the economic and political structure of society. The utopia of the “dictatorship of the proletariat” will never exist, only the dictatorship of the “revolutionary party”. Repression and execution await those who question their claims and decisions. These supposed champions of labor are really harbingers of death - of the mind and the body politic.
They’re akin to the pigs in Orwell’s Animal Farm, the loudest voices in the revolution, usurpers of a righteous cause, but a bit “more equal” than everyone else after the farmer is done away with. Fortunately, the pigs, like the farmer, got their comeuppance in the end of the story.
Make these pigs squeal.
The CCP, the RNC, and the DNC are not your friends.
Vote your conscience. Always remember to see who’s funding who, who will gain, and who will lose. There are better choices than others, even when confronted by only bad choices.
Immo stultorum deus sum.
Especially after age 40 and a knee surgery… I’m tired boss! 😩

Good.
But they are…
Once again, here’s one at $750.
Not pre-installed.
Here’s some great laptops with GNU/Linux pre-installed.
There are vendors supplying workforce laptops and miniPC’s running MintOS for less than $350 per unit, in bulk!
None of those links prove me wrong.
All of them prove your silly, bogus assertions wrong.
Try again.
Nah. Don’t have to.
Ah okay, specific for Gentoo, I see. Thus, since I’m in *buntu land (
--minimal-install
, so nosnap
fuckery), it’s better to just set up anapt
repo and use my build containers to push to that.
