  • Bazzite was the breakthrough for me. All my stuff just worked. Only 2 things I had to fix was

    1.adding 5.1 audio over Spdif, which was a single ostree command to make it permanent.

    1. Installing Proton-GE for one of my games that does not do well under normal proton.

    Took about an hour to research and fix both.

    I had tried to covert 4 times in the 5 years before. Ubuntu, linux mint and endevourOS would not play well with my hardware in years past.


  • He is a time poor impatient person. That is something linux will need to address for wider adoption.

    I would argue that their example resulted in some very wide ranging changes in approach that was long overdue.

    Linux was at risk of becoming an “OS for us” instead of a true replacement for everyone.

    I suspect if they repeat the challange today, it would be a night and day difference.

    I wonder if there is a genetic component to keeping fire for recreation or comfort.

    I think all societies have a cooking on fire aspect.

    The use of fire seems to play a much more active role in societies in cold climates. It seems to play a less prominent role in the tropics with warmer nighttime temperatures.


  • Mint is great for older hardware performance wise. It’s also one of the most polished distros in terms of things like updates, settings and updates. The Ubuntu/Debian ecosystem is also better supported by 3rd parties than Arch and Red Hat.

    Elementary is a lot of the same, but the UI is more for Mac refugees.

    It is lagging a bit on the latest gaming support. Thats what bazzite(Fredora) and CachyOS(Arch) are doing very well at the moment. They are a bit heavier on hardware requirements though, but still less than Windows.
