These improvements are for MESA, by an open source developer for Valve. So not in the AMD driver itself. Older AMD cards do well on linux, because AMD open sourced the driver and incorporated it in the kernel. My AMD experience on linux thus far has been that it just works. Valve is spending a lot of resources on improving the graphics stack on linux.

It is purely a numbers game. Risk vs Risk. Any meal you eat has the possibility of you ending up in hospital. This happened to me, developing a sudden allergy to food I ate before with no problems. It does not stop me eating though 😉

Allergic reaction is your greatest risk with a vaccine. And even there you will the chances slim for such a reaction. We simply take that risk for the vaccine in question, take its effectiveness into account and compare that to the risks of getting the decease in question.

I would not wish long covid on my worst enemy. The never ending brain fog, the tiredness that simply does not go away, the lack of taste for food. It really sucks the joy out of living. So if a vaccine can prevent that, and help shield those around you, that you may infect, I think the risk of side effects are more than justified and worth taking.

Just got a lifting jack to properly lift the old K100, getting ready to remove the gearbox and swing arm to get at the broken starter clutch behind thr rear engine cover. Fabricobbled a pank to support the engine on the jack yesterday.

Love the Orange. I think the 1300s strikes a perfect balance between fun and comfort.
