    No consequences here. I’m perfectly happy continuing on using AMD.

    Sure - and you’re limited to systems that use an AMD chip. Consequences. I’m sure you justify this to yourself though.

    Why do you think AMD always work out of the box and people constantly have problems with Nvidia? Is it because they’re “ignorant” or because it’s unnecessarily convoluted?

    I don’t think - I know. Because one is integrated with the kernel and built and distributed with it and the other is a separate module. This isn’t something unique to nvidia either - my system has modules from system76 as well as v4l2loopback that are also compiled separately.

    But since I install my packages using “apt” they are all managed by dkms and I don’t need to worry about it. Because I took a few minutes to learn about how my computer works.

      Once again, not a consequence.

      You know…what? AMD always works out of the box?

      My guy, I don’t even know what these words mean. And with AMD, I don’t have to become a software engineer. It just works.

        This is the literal definition of a consequence. 🤣

        Fucking hell…

          …what is?

          Fucking hell…

          …was there something you wanted to add?

            Consequence: “a result or effect of an action or condition.”

            e.g “being stuck buying only amd kit”

            Oh no, absolutely nothing else to add. I don’t want to confuse you with “software engineer speak”. Enjoy the self-imposed ignorance.

              For the third time, not a consequence. Consequence implies some sort of sacrifice.

              Excellent, glad to hear it. 👍

                You mean like not being able to use a system with an Nvidia card? 🤣

                OMG dude. This is pathetic.
