I don’t know how far owncloud and nextcloud have diverged, but in the nextcloud client you can add filters to ignore files by clicking the three dots on the folder in settings.

You can also free up local space by using virtual folders, but it only works properly on windows.

Afaik Godot is designed specifically to be portable , so unless you’re wanting to use cutting edge features of unreal or something, you can use that and let everyone else focus on their own tooling.

Also do some research over whether you actually do need cuda if you need cuda. It’s synonymous with a lot of AI stuff, but in my experience it all works with rocm anyway.

Linux is actually kinda designed to be less fragmented than windows really.

The reason you don’t pick an install directory is because the standard is that binaries live where binaries live, dependencies live where dependencies live, logs live where logs live, etc.

All the user should worry about is where the media or whatever your program works with is.

Always try to find the apt install instructions for whatever program you want, and it’s easy to uninstall with apt remove.

Apart from a few deb packages, almost everything that can’t be managed via apt should be considered incomplete or experimental. If it was ready for you to just use it without issue, it would be in an apt repository.

It may seem a bit daunting to have to use command line at first, but once you’re used to it, you’ll realise how absolutely broken and archaic managing software on windows is. (Like seriously, it’s 2024 and you’re still having to fish through slow or sketchy websites to find installers for tools and drivers.)

I’d like some kind of visual task scheduler instead of having to read up on how to do cron jobs every time.

The fundamental problem with cryptocurrencies is that the people with the enthusiasm to make them (libertarians), are too stupid (libertarian) to understand why a deflationary asset cannot work as a currency.

It’s inherently a speculative investment. Nobody is going to spend something that might be worth dramatically more tomorrow and nobody is going work for something that might be worth dramatically less tomorrow.
