Install Rhino 7 on Ubuntu based OS (KDE on Ubuntu Noble in this case) I used Wine 9.10 (Staging)

⚠This assumes a non existant wine prefix or even a wine installation. If you have an existing wine prefix there may be things that interfere with this guide.

• Start by installing wine and some required adjacent libraries.

sudo apt install wine wine32 winetricks mono-complete winbind

• Initialize your default Wine environment (which will be located under ~/.wine

Ubuntu 20.04 on a 15" Retina MacBook Pro (Mid-2014)

These are notes from my efforts to get Ubuntu 20.04 installed on my older MacBook Pro. I'm making this gist public in the hopes that it's helpful to others.

I did a Minimal install, but selected the option to install additional 3rd-party drivers.

Wifi doesn't work during the install (because it requires a 3rd-party driver), so you won't be able to choose to download updates while installing. No big deal, run a software update after the install.

The installer takes about 25 minutes to complete. Post-install, most things work. The only driver I had to manually install was for the FaceTime camera. More on that below.

This may work with other Macbook Pro models that have an Intel GPU and a NVidia one, but I only have proof that this works on a MacBook Pro Mid 2014 (MacBookPro11,3) with Ubuntu 18.04. If you want to be sure about which model you have, run sudo dmidecode -t system in the Terminal and you will see the information about the system including the serial number and product name (MacBookPro11,3 in my case). I'm assuming you have installed the NVidia propietary drivers, which can be installed from the application "Software & Updates" in the tab "Additional Drivers".

Steps to use the Intel GPU:

1. Run lspci |grep VGA and check that only one line mentioning "NVIDIA" is printed. This is to be sure that you are required to do the following steps. If two lines appear, and one of those mentions "Intel", then you probably do not need to activate the GPU but only select it as the main GPU (jump to the step where you have to "Open nvidia-settings").
2. Download apple_set_os.efi from https://github.com/0xbb/apple_se

Convert YouTube subtitles(vtt) to human readable text.

Download only subtitles from YouTube with youtube-dl:
youtube-dl  --skip-download --convert-subs vtt <video_url>

Note that default subtitle format provided by YouTube is ass, which is hard
to process with simple regex. Luckily youtube-dl can convert ass to vtt, which
is easier to process.
