#683259 — A New Machine Steadily Rolls Along

Got my new sound card for my new GNU/Linux machine:

https://us.creative.com/p/sound-blaster/sound-blaster-audigy-rx

Amazon did it again.  They offer free shipping at 7-10 days but
also offer expedited shipping, for a hefty fee, at 2-3 days.
However, when selecting free shipping the package usually comes
in 2-3 days anyway.  It hasn't failed for me yet.

But why this card?

Because reseach shows that it is one of the only PCIe sound cards
that Alsa can fully support.  Therefore the choice is a no-brainer.
In addition it is also a damned fucking good sound card.

Preliminary research to determine hardware compatibility with
GNU/Linux is crititcal, yet many (most?) distro lackeys will fail
to do the work.

Then these lackeys will bellyache, moan, and groan when their hardware
does not function properly.  Like overgrown brats they will blame
GNU/Linux for their self-inflicted problems.

Shut the fuck up, brats.  YOU are the only problem.

These fucking lackey brats give GNU/Linux a bad name.

Gosh, I've been losing track of how many times of late where Feeb has 
been thrown money around to solve his Linux problems.

If I've kept track well, this hardware build started back on 12/18/24, a 
mere 21 days ago.

But there was also a build attempt on 7/19/24 .. something about an old 
i7 to be replaced with a Xeon but which wasn't socket compatible?

That seems to have been abandoned?  Or morphed into an 8/9/24 redo?

In any event, seems like a lot of effort (if not also money) being 
squandered by Feeb just to keep a machine or two running.


If wasting his time isn't his hobby, perhaps he'd just be better off 
spending $599 just once for an M4 Mac mini...

...or to stroke his ego, a specs-bump at double that to have 24GB RAM, 
1TB SSD storage & 10GbE Ethernet for him to make his USENET posts with.

I have no GNU/Linux problems.  I understand every facet of GNU/Linux
operation so that I am able to build, boot, and configure a unique
system totally from scratch.

What can you do other than to blindly install a standard, mainstream,
do-it-all-for-you distro?

You are definitely not one to judge.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Why would you, or anyone, desire to "keep track?"

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

You've got serious psychological issues.  I suggest that you
contact the nearest competent therapist.

The fact that you've taken time to post this ridiculous message
only indicates that it is *you* who has "ego" problems.

But what the fuck is "ego?"

I was a board certified neuropsychiatrist of the Freudian school
at the age of 16 and I never encountered an adequate laymen
description of the term "ego."

Since then I've learned to dismiss the use of "ego" as being
the rant of idiots.

No problems...except for 3 public attempts in ~6 months which illustrate 
otherwise.  Its not even clear if any of them were successful or not.

Not waste weeks of my time on it.  Do you also insist on driving a car 
with a manual clutch, manual choke, & manual spark advance too?

Judge?  Nah, I've simply admitted that your trolls were inadequate for 
motivating this 3rd party to keep track of just how much effort you've 
invested to be spinning your wheels by gimping all of these kluges.

Untrue, for you were compelled to snip to alter the above statement.

ELI5: it is what was bruised by the statement portion you snipped.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!  What a dunce!

If I logged all the time spent on hardware assembly and associated tasks
it would only total a few hours.

Also, my machines cannot be compared to driving an antique automobile.
My work is comparable to the design and building of a 6th generation
experimental jet fighter.

Give your misplaced critiques a rest and get back to your generic,
security crippled, moribund distros.

Plus all of the hours which you don't log...
Plus all the yammering you do on COLA...

And you're not keeping track .. why?

Gosh, it couldn't be that deep down, you know that you're squandering 
too much of your time that could be spent on more fruitful endeavors.

An appropriate analogy, because experimentals ... crash & burn.

Gosh, that's another cartload of a face-saving attempt to _try_ to 
protect Feeb's very fragile little ego!

Look at yourself.  You post, but not only do you post, you
attempt to back up your borrowed claims with actual references,
which must consume a lot of time -- so much time in fact that
it is doubtful that you have an actual life.

Nope.  You are the loser.  When such a loser encounters an
unbelievably brilliant personage like myself they will inevitably
engage in various denying tactics in the attempt to defend their
own fragile "ego."

Read my earlier post.  I want want all low quality people off

hh is learning from you. That's how he is. He criticizes just to make 
you give him information. He is a weasel that does not have an elongated 
body.

Switch the second h and bang it against first. Send'im to algebra!

Is there something wrong with continuing to learn all through life?
At what age did you close your mind off to new experiences & concepts?

> He criticizes just to make you give him information.  

Or just a Free Clue to help Feeb to learn to do better.

> He is a weasel that does not have an elongated body.

Big words from someone who's claimed that I'm a wealthy photo pro (still 
wondering where the publishing in a tabloid magazine come from)
... no, inherited big bucks from, - - oh, public school teachers?
... no, it must have been Bitcoin then!
... no, t'was "Shot five or six people dead, owned and got to run their 
huge whorehouse in Abu Dhabi."

... and now its an out-of-body weasel experience:

Just when are you going to start to learn to do better?

He means that he was studied by neuropsychiatrist for his 
Frankenstein-like appearance and intelligence.

Why the fuck would he buy any Mac when he won't even use a distro,
much less Apple's shit?

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are

Partly because he's been trying to claim that he spends less money this way.

But more so, if he really is so good at this custom build stuff that he 
claims to be doing, assembling Linux OS on an M4 mini would be trivial 
child's play for him.  As such, he could have his cake & eat it too.

Your idea of "cake" would make me vomit.

You are obviously a representative of the Western diet which
is proven to be absolutely toxic to human health.
