It gets harder to distinguish one app from another. It all becomes noise functionally.
Bazzite/bluefin so Fedora silverblue 😂

I have two machines on my bench with Bazzite. One with a 7800xt and another with a 2070 super. I usually encounter most issues with Nvidia. Bazzite is usually on the bleeding edge driver.

randomaside@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Valve registers a "STEAM FRAME" trademark for new computer hardwareEnglish811·29 days agoHonestly I’m ecstatic to see more Valve hardware. They’re setting the target for hardware for game developers which means a better experience for us all.
PC Game Developers will know they need to get they’re game running on deck (and now FRAME) if they want to hit the maximum size audience. Nvidia currently owns PC gaming but they’re not good stewards of the PC gaming ecosystem anymore (nor is Microsoft).

I really have no interest in title’s that beg me to run buggy builds on a $2000 graphics card that is less than 2 years old to be “playable”. (Looking squarely at unreal engine 5 games)

I have no interest in GPUs that cost 200% the cost of the rest of the PC.

I want AMD apus to dominate the space. I want Linux to empower them. I am tired and TBH my next gaming PC is going to end up running Kazeta.org at this rate.
Thank you for coming to my TEDex talk

randomaside@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Linux@lemmy.ml•What will MS do when Linux becomes a serious threat to their monopoly ?1·1 month agoIt is (unfortunately) their primary foothold into the market. Microsoft also knows this which is why some many other projects at Microsoft have been killed and absorbed by the Microsoft office team. They have a cannabalistic corporate culture. Its clear that at Microsoft the only threat to Microsoft… Is Microsoft… No one else on the radar registers.
randomaside@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Linux@lemmy.ml•What will MS do when Linux becomes a serious threat to their monopoly ?9·1 month agoThey will adapt.
Embrace, extend, extinguish. They will become Linux.
In all seriousness, if you look into how windows manages its security now, it leverages virtualization to essentially run windows inside of a hypervisor. At some point in the future, the legacy windows kernel is going to just be another virtual machine running side by side with Linux and the hypervisor will probably run their HyperV tech on top of a Linux (compatible) kernel.
Then they will say that you need their version of Linux to run specific hardware and software.
EEE
randomaside@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•LTT Labs blog + benchmarks for linux vs windows performance AMD/Intel/NVIDIAEnglish9·1 month agoThe writing of this article was not the quality I would have preferred. The infotainment angle really makes it feel like their data can’t be trusted. With that being said,
“as long as you have a distro with an up to date kernel and the latest Mesa drivers your out of box experience won’t vary much at all.”
This is actually a greater challenge for the average user than they think it is. Its also why the universal Blue project exists. Using the OCI container model for the OS, they can easily upgrade and customize the kernel, drivers, and even upgrade to entire new versions of Fedora without batting an eye. This is the main reason I’ve switched over to Bazzite. The pain of updating is gone. Also, most images have the “-nvidia” version which alleviates the headaches of maintaining your Nvidia drivers.
Rant: If anything, this article shows that the nuances of the FOSS ecosystem is lost on them because they’re afraid of strange elitists imaginary neck beard criticizing them? I understand this is for comedic effect but it feels sophomoric and hacky; like they’ve missed the point. I would ask them to follow Jorge Castro a bit and understand the work he’s doing is specifically to make Linux for everyone else.
TBH they will be the last publication to come around to it. As Microsoft leaves us all no real choice in the matter, the future of the PC hobbyist is Linux, weather they like it or not so they need to stop complaining and start contributing.

randomaside@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Linux@lemmy.ml•I have an Nvidia GPU, can I game on Linux?11·1 month agoI have an HP z4 G4 running Bazzite-dx-gnomr-nvidia with a RTX 2070 (it does not fit in that case at all) and other than the lack of the functional steam big screen mode that the steam deck enjoys, everything else works extremely well!

randomaside@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Linux@lemmy.ml•Do you guys just have flawless experiences or what?21·1 month agoI have been using Linux for a long time and it’s only been in the post chrome os era that I’ve really seen updates and maintenance begin to turn the corner.
A lot of Linux users will tell you their system is perfect but it kinda reminds me of that documentary where all these inventors came to show off their sex robots at a sex robot convention. Its obvious how absurd it is when you’re on the outside looking in at a bunch of people who are like “I know she’s rough lookin’ but just check out this feature”.
ChromeOS was really a first class experience on third rate garbage hardware. It did however really spark the potential for a new paradigm that projects like ChimeraOS, universalBlue, vanillaOS, blendOS, and even steamOS are tackling.
Ubuntu is a bit “dated” in its design. (For lack of a better description even though they keep trying to re-invent the wheel). There is a reason why everyone is rushing to make Linux usable now and that’s namely because it’s become valves chosen desktop platform moving forward. Immutable/atomic distributions are set to fix the problems the average user deals with when it comes to Linux.
I’m actually using bazzite-dx with Nvidia and gnome right now. Its been an overall success with some kinks due to the average jank you get with Nvidia drivers. For instance, Bambu studio flatpak was busted for a week but I just checked tonight and it looks like it’s been fixed.
Its ok to be frustrated about this. You’re not alone.There are dozens of us! Dozens!
Brainscan. SLAPS.

randomaside@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Linux@lemmy.ml•What problems does Linux have to overcome to get more users32·2 months agoThis most difficult one is probably the fact that 99% of people do not install their operating system.
The device they purchase needs to have a clean and elegant out of box experience like the Mac. Regular folk who are willing to stray from windows don’t consider any computer that doesn’t come off the shelf with sane defaults. Everything else is arcane to them.
We are not those people. I have to remind myself that not everyone likes to build their own systems.
I do have a friend who wants to buy a framework laptop with Fedora on it because that’s what they use in the Laboratory he works in but he doesn’t want to assemble it himself he just wants it to come like that.
I think we’re getting there finally.
