This is crazy! Unexpected, too, amidst all the ARM hype. Framework just keeps adding dubs

Can we just pretend that it is…

I think lazy.nvim has a pretty decent UI box for when you have plugins already installed. Things like managing updates and uninstalling for a session. But yeah it would be such a mess for a separate program to mess with the actual nvim config, or it would require enough setup to make it not even worth it in the first place. 99% of plugins can be “installed” by just pasting their remote Git repo urls into your package manager setup so, it’s not bad really. Part of the trade off for more control and efficiency I guess!

Might be cause it’s just so different from the rest of the gameplay, and kinda ignores the progression of your skills a bit. I’m sure KH2’s Atlantica did not help its case, either…

Damn. Had no idea, and I 100%’d this game

I mean, they didn’t exactly provide support for the original argument, so I don’t expect the dissent to provide support either… both are just funny opinions

I think the idea is they’re equally polarizing lol

Yup, at the end of the day, do whatever works. I’ve never had to mess with hybrid graphics but I’d imagine some distros handle it better, as you found. PopOS is great and their next update should he real sweet (they’re developing their own Desktop Environment in-house).

Yeah this pretty much sums up where I landed after like 8 months of Linux desktop usage. The only reasons I ever boot back to windows is Valorant (which also requires me to turn Secureboot back on… I should just stop playing that game) and whenever I need to compile programs for Windows. But I’m gonna fix that second problem by turning an old laptop into a Windows build machine that I can access remotely.

Honestly, I’d say overall my experience with Linux desktop has actually surpassed Windows. KDE just runs snappier in every way and the app ecosystem you can access via flathub is so vast and polished. Everything feels like it has a lot of care going into it. Windows-only programs with no good Linux alternatives still exist, but for my use case I no longer have that problem.

This looks crazy cool… one of those projects that I really wish I had a use for so I could try it lol

Great read, and I love all the sources/links. Looking forward to see how this evolves!

Well, no, I don’t think so. 5/0 would make a ratio of 5:0, which is undefined.

Oh yah.. duh. That’s pretty neat.

Oh shit, will definitely be trying this out. I tend to make wildly overzealous find searches

https://nobaraproject.org/ Nobara is EXCELLENT. It took me weeks to tweak my last distro to get to the point that Nobara is out of the box, and GloriousEggroll sets it all up and keeps it updated for everyone.

As for dual booting, you should be able to follow any online guide (and the Nobara installer might even have an option for it). The only caveat is Nobara does NOT support secure boot, so you may have to disable that in your bios (you can google the benefits of secure boot, I find that for a stationary desktop in the hands of any reasonable user, it’s not necessary. Only reason I ever turn it on is to play Valorant on Windows 11 🙃)

…does Doom use it for anything?

A lot of the time, rust rewrites are more for devs, than users. Rust code is just easier to maintain (in the long-run 😉) and harder to make buggy. But some times the apps do just run faster when compiled with Rust.

Man, you’d think getting backed by a massive tech company would increase your stability…

I specifically like to keep up with linux gaming news, so I have these two in my RSS feeds:

https://www.gamingonlinux.com/

https://linuxgamingcentral.com/

They just make good informative posts in general, not always relating to Linux.

Yeah pretty much where I’m at. I have to be careful not to seed basically at all, otherwise I’ll get angry letters from my ISP. Kinda sucks, and most if not all VPN services charge money to be able to use torrenting over them. But maybe someday I’ll work out a system.
