I mean, this is the real world not a videogame, how can someone think to “just shut down” an entire industry segment? We are in free market capitalism, and unless they also suggest to “just shift to autochratic communnism” this ain’t going to happen.

After the kind of good question such a response threw me off

Are you 7 or a troll?

All this is ironic, bazzite is often chosen for gaming, but as all these niche distros they have problems in stability which in this case reflects on exactly their core feature: gaming performance.

Stands yet again in demonstrating that gamers don’t actually care about performance, just in claiming that they have a top spec pc, if that thing does not perform like it should but just gives a workable experience it is actually fine

No, bazzite does some weird stuff that does not interact well with the linux nvidia drivers

Not really, we are not in the eighties anymore, modern supercomputers are mainly a bunch of off the shelf servers connected together

God forbid developers earning something for their work

I am a software developer, on work computers I have debian, on my personal I have arch.

I would never use fedora as I am not here to troubleshoot bullshit for red hat, and would never use ubuntu because of their snap bullshit. It can be avoided but in both cases it is an indicator of the motivations of the company that controls them not being aligned with my interests.

I like arch because of the rolling release and because I like to control and understand all that happens on my machine. Optimization is not my main motivator.

I have almost nothing à la carte, i bulk-installed all that my DE wanted and use that plus alacritty and steam.

10 years old, first stable release in 2013. It needs to have a significant userbase for 5 to 10 years for me to consider using. Again, I am not here for the adventure, a computer is a tool, I have work and family.

The point is there are much more of us, than gamers on bazzite or enthusiasts on NixOS. The tons of institutional debian and rhel users offset the gamers and experimenters. I want to work, not be the offloaded qa of someone else. So i will not use fedora for work for example. I will also not run a non mainstream distro, for the same reason.

Or have a pc for work with the most stable and boring distro possible, and a pc for the rest with a real os, like arch. Or if only means for one pc dualboot.

So no, i disagree. NixOS is not stable nor proven in my book, it certainly is a good idea though. If it still is around in 5 or so years i’ll consider giving it a shot.

Actual professional software developer here with 10 years of experience. I work on linux for linux targets.

You wanna play around? Use whatever you want with the latest and greatest packages and tweaks, you will encounter issues, learn how to solve them, that is for fun.

You wanna work? Use a serious distro with proven stability, I use debian for example. Yes installing nvidia drivers is a touch less user friendly than on bazzite, but when I update I don’t have surprises and when I boot up in the morning i don’t have to wonder if today will be debugging and coding for my product or for the damn tool i am using to develop it.

Inb4 angry italians, come on southern neighbors go at it XD

Thunderbird.

It is the worst email client besides all the alternatives

Inb4 random people drawing a dickbutt a month on some random piece of paper to qualify as “artist” and get free money from the government.

All these good sounding programs sound great in theory, until you find out that the lobbist controlling their actual enactment will make it a lot easier for CEOs to request the funds than actual homeless artists

Acpi is my guess too. Unfortunately that is sometimes an issue and difficult to correct

I don’t know where you got your information from, but your mental model on how and why things work the way they do in both linux and windows seems to be really off.

Since you seem someone that is actually interested in understanding this stuff, I strongly suggest to find some better sources as your base

Swiss here, can’t say I know about sudden weird illnesses going around. If I where to point some fingers I would probably mention the ac in the plane and maybe exhaustion due to physical activity.

Well, it performs worse when used to stream 1440p games, but it shines used to allow corporate remote workers to click buttons on java apps

Make high tower of chairs under ceiling fan Lie on it with dick up and out ??? Profit
