yeah it's just like... ai llm loser whitewashed arch for wannabe "le webdev guru" types

what's the point, they're not doing anything revolutionary. in fact making a 7 GB ISO of someone else's work isn't something that often deserves any funding i'd say. unless hannah montana linux needs residuals

you know, i've been looking at this omarchy thing lately, and holy fucking shit some people are really stupid for falling for it.

you're using arch. it's just arch. an arch distro who's funding will benefit exactly 0 of the people who built most of the foundation of your ai loserwashed distro. bruh

i find it so heartbreaking that VR keeps getting clumped into the grift pile, but i don't blame people for doing it. it's an incredibly promising medium that i fell in love with but it seems to just attract the most disgusting of corporate sycophants who want to sell virtual real estate :/

GPU wise it's roughly GTX 960/1050, it does struggle with high resolutions due to the low pixel fill rate provided by the chip design. CPU wise it's still basically a 4 core ryzen chip, it'll run basically anything made before 2018 or so (assuming it's not notoriously poorly optimised)

the technology is insanely unsustainable financially so they're trying to grapple as many people they can into it so they can shove an exorbitant subscription cost in front of them down the line
