I think you may be misunderstanding what the command did. This command basically downloaded a shell script with curl, then ran it with sh. If you’re familiar with Windows this is equivalent to downloading and running a Batch or PowerShell script.
EDIT: someone else has posted the shell script you ran. You essentially need to manually undo whatever is in the script in the terminal.
Schrödinger’s cat was fictional, I don’t see your point
I have a very similar use case to you, and when I built my PC I just never installed Windows on it. Linux is a great development environment (imo strictly superior to Windows but ymmv), and gaming is almost flawless with Proton. Only problems with that has been from the immature RX 9070 XT drivers, so not too bad.
Depending on what you program with I’d highly recommend exclusively using a Linux VM for it. Then you can fully switch once you’re comfortable working out the kinks.
Probably not a small browser, no. I just really wanted to plug it tho
Does Servo count? It was originally a Mozilla project to write a web engine in Rust, then got transferred to The Linux Foundation when Mozilla laid off a bunch of its staff
Have you actually read the article? The first sentence:
A quotation circulates on the Internet, attributed to me, but it wasn’t written by me.
Have you given the CachyOS kernel a try? It’s got some of the Clear Linux patches and some other custom patches, and it might have slightly better performance than the others you’ve listed here
Although expect to only really see any noticeable improvements in games or benchmarks and the like
Hey, that’s what Trump said when he was being impeached. And when he was being trialled as a criminal.
Wait a minute…
I happen to have a 50% exam tomorrow, that would be awesome to have. copium
I’m not a GNU/Linux expert, I’ve only used it on a server for a short time, but I have some things to share.
Remember: search engines are your best friend! Obviously it would be better for someone to recommend a program for your specific use case, but you can find things like notepadqq (Notepad++) or xone (Drivers for your Xbox One controllers) with just one search.
About GNU/Linux distributions: each of them provide a different set of software, including package manager, desktop environment, file system, etc. You can basically ignore the differences between distros if you use distrobox, which will let you install software regardless of your distro. Other differences will mainly be in the actual software they distribute (so you may need to use sudo apt rather than pacman or whatever.
The “flavours” of distros can mean different things, often though they just have a different desktop environment so it runs kinda different, or it is designed for a different use case.
For your use case, Pop!_OS has an ISO that includes Nvidia drivers, and Linux Mint also lets you install the proprietary drivers. Both are fairly common in the GNU/Linux space (especially with beginners) so you can get tons of support with those.
If I’m understanding this right, you have run the script linked and also installed CryoUtilities separately?
In that case, I’d run A.B.T’s “revert” script in the Medium post (looks reasonable at a glance?), and uninstall CryoUtilities using the instructions on their GitHub.
I think you would definitely want to have CryoUtilities uninstalled before SDWEAK, since ananicy-cpp would probably conflict. But I would highly recommend backups before running arbitrary commands on your deck 😅
