Do you think you would have those issues that you are reporting if you were using AMD or Intel GPUs?

Problem is not Bazzite or Linux, problem is Nvidia. If we need to be honest, we should avoid Nvidia.

I feel that “works” is a very broad term. It can work but doesn’t mean that it will perform even or better in a good amount of games compared to Nvidia on Windows or AMD in Linux or Windows. Issues depends on specific games that one plays, one may be playing games that aren’t prone for those issues reported.

How do you handle the closed source applications installations for your dad without friction?

I had some good rate of satisfaction (anecdotal empirical and personal) with Silverblue. Good support for UKI + Secure Boot + TPM2 + SELinux. All of that transparent to end user, and we can roll back stuff quite easy with the Atomic philosophy.

Those were experiments conducted on Lenovo and Dell laptops that have good Linux support with continuous firmware updates via fwupd.

Personally, I use Arch, btw. Not a big fan on the relation of companies with distros.

“In KDE Linux, we build the base system out of Arch packages, but freeze the contents and take responsibility for the result being functional; we don’t offload responsibility onto the user.”

Is this the same that Manjaro does?

which are a lot like dinosaur

It was extremely easy to send a trojan file to a friend and if they would open it and you happen to know its IP you could remote do things like open its CD drive and at the same time have tons of malware in your PC but it was all worth to see them in the next day saying that the PC went abducted by aliens

It was just a just a joke. Slackware is a dinosaur.

It was good to learn how to rationalize the food and prepare it. After two months with HelloFresh, cancel it and start groceries and preparing lunch and dinner boxes with your learning you will miles ahead of keeping paying for their service.

Seems to be where the world is marching. They are surpassing the US and competing in many areas. They have a large population that is starting to travel more often. They are producing large content online that is not translated. They have their own YouTube equivalent (Bilibili), etc…

If you don’t know yet learn a second language. Chinese seems the most useful nowadays.

What about Slackware? Not popular anymore?

I see that Windscribe was included. Their price tier is always in promotion so I’d take that in consideration.

Also, they have app for Linux: https://windscribe.com/features/linux/

It is not in Electron like many others. It is native Linux.

Are you sure that the DX12 performance loss is already addressed on Nvidia GPUs? Do you have a source?

They are the proprietary drivers from NVIDIA that should now “just work” across kernel upgrades (like AMD has forever).

Are you sure that is how it works for AMD in Linux?

I’d go with Linux, no matter what, but this seem exactly why I feel that we should be more clear. People may be building some PCs out there to use Linux for gaming and buying Nvidia because others keep saying that everything is smooth sails with Nvidia. A lot of it is working now but there are some downsides and the recommendation is to go with AMD if you can.

Thanks. That is what I thought but is good to confirm if we are not missing something.

Uromastyx

That is a fair reason and a good remind actually. Thanks!
