Is this SteamOS? If no, what Desktop Environment?

Next 3.5 years if we are lucky.

If our goal is to transition more users to Linux, good Nvidia support is a must. Nvidia is the biggest player in the market and that means plenty of users switching will have an nvidia GPU.

That is how it has been for a long time at Microsoft. They know Enterprise is where the money is, it hasn’t stopped them from trying to venture out into other areas tho.

If you use -Qeq, you should be able to skip the awk part of the command.

They are allowed to chill their own speech. The government does not have the right to restrict speech, at least in the US.

Pretty frustrating how slow Android manufacturers are to implement this in their phones. Its one of the few features that would get me to consider upgrading my phone early, as opposed to waiting until support ends.

I don’t know if raw package counts is the best comparison. Unlike say Fedora, Arch bundles everything related to a project in the same file. If you want Qt6-base on Arch, that is one package. If you want it on Fedora, it is going to have a lib, header, docs, and maybe a few other packages.

Just from personal experience, I do not have issues with finding packages in the main repos, with only a handful of my packages coming from the AUR. This is not the case with others, like Fedora where extra repos need to be added, like EPEL and RPM Fusion.

The arch maintainers package more software than most other distributions. Some items they leave in the AUR by choice, if the Dev prefers it there. The key is to use the AUR sparingly and only if you trust the packager.

True, but some people may not have a choice because of work or family.

That would reduce the value of buying an RDNA4 GPU, so I don’t see that happening.

That would require porting Mesa to Windows, which won’t happen. At best, someone would be able to extract this to a DLL that could replace the FSR DLL bundled with games.

Unfortunately the other big airlines in the country will do this soon after seeing its success.

Another reason to take a burner instead if you have to travel to China.

Maybe they aren’t updating enough which leads to larger issues. Had a problem in the past updating NextCloud too slowly and stuff broke.

McDonalds made money from the deal. They were paid by Taylor to force their franchisees to use their ice cream machines with the extortionist service contract.

If a company’s culture causes a high turnover rate, that is a company problem.

Using insurance means your premiums will go up, meaning you are still going to pay for it. There is also some emotional damage depending on how the theft happens.

If you were curious what the gaming optimized options were, here is the snippet from the script.

TRUE noatime "Do not update access times (speeds up reads)" \
  TRUE ssd "Enable SSD optimizations" \
  TRUE space_cache=v2 "Improved space cache" \
  TRUE discard=async "Asynchronous TRIM" \
  FALSE compress=zstd:1 "Zstandard compression (space-saving, may slow access)"

I’ve used both and found ProtonPlus to be better for my needs. It has way more proton and wine versions available. They also added the feature for steam games to select their proton version from the client as well.
