Yeah it just does not mesh with my experience at all.
Driver issues?

For me, it’s 1 game out of 300 that doesn’t work. Not sure when last you have tried. Reliable Linux gaming via Proton has grown by leaps and bounds since the Steam Deck.
Haven’t needed Windows for 3+ years. Gaming every day.
My experience over the last few years of Linux gaming is: with Proton, it’s mostly a matter of It Just Works™.
When it doesn’t, switch to Experimental, and then usually it works.
Compatibility with older games is fantastic, too.
The exception to this are games which require kernel-level anti-cheat. This is a security nightmare on Windows as it is, and it simply doesn’t work on Linux. Luckily, these games are few – but they do tend to be big (e.g. Apex Legends).
I don’t disagree with this hot take. But the major difference is the sheer resources needed to have an LLM in place of a “do one thing right” utility like sed. In that sense, they are incomparable.
I didn’t even realize it had a native version. As stuff “just works”, I find myself checking under the hood less and less.
But, good. I’ll have to fire this up again and see if I notice any difference. I thought it ran fine before.
Thanks
Yep yep, I didn’t take offense. Tbh idk why I still do it. Just habit I guess.
Edit: I made an edit but I won’t say what it was. :)
Maybe it is. I always considered it a courtesy since otherwise it can be difficult to see what was edited. It’s from my reddit days.
But if the file system needs extra writes anyway for CoW, and the SSD needs its own CoW, then wouldn’t that end up being exponential writes? Or is there some mechanism which mitigates that?
I don’t disagree with that. They’re also a much smaller group so I think it just stands to reason.
But I do appreciate that they’re taking chances (probably for the same reason). Cosmic is quite impressive already and a good alternative to Gnome/KDE/Cinnamon; better than the Pop Shell on Gnome.
Edit: a word
Yes. My gaming rig has been on Pop for years now.
I hate the idea of still being on Pop. But it’s so damned pleasant.
Now on the Cosmic alpha.
The CoW nature of Btrfs means it’s often slower than ext4 for common tasks, right? It also means more writes to your SSDs.
I’ve stuck to ext4 so far, as someone who doesn’t really have a need for snapshotting.
Edit: I’m not an expert on file systems in the least, so do chime in if these assumptions are incorrect.
It is NOT, in fact, more user friendly than 15 years ago.
This is just patently false. Pick any common distro.
Thanks for this post.
I’m currently on a 7800XT, which has been a fantastic card on Linux. I haven’t had the power draw issues you had on RDNA3, and though I’m not planning to upgrade, I’m glad it seems like AMD is continuing with some solid releases.
I tend to use food names, like tomato
and sausage
. But no potato
, and definitely no apple
.
I also utilize the special-use domain home.arpa for all my LAN systems, so accidental collisions are largely impossible.
Specifically multiplayer games which require kernel-level anti-cheat. It’s an extreme minority of multiplayer games.
Kernel-level anti-cheat is a privacy and security nightmare on Windows, too.
Tax dollars are definitely being stolen… by this unelected buffoon
Maybe it has to be vim in emacs on an emac
+1 for Keychron. Esp the QMK ones.
