So you basically hold them to a higher standard than google, apple, Microsoft, cisco, Amazon. Because theyve all had outages cause by certs expiring.

Its a common issue and its not a huge deal. The package manager cert was a big outage but their wiki website cert is the most minor shit ever.

Its a small team and those are mistakes. We can find hundreds of examples of major companies with IT teams in the 100s making those same mistakes. The solution was figured out by the team and fixed. The original version of that GH page that most people remember was much longer but its been significantly reduced as most of the claims were disputed and the author had to reel back their claims or remove them outright. Now whats left is just a few pedantic complaints.

With arch they make those mistakes less but they shift a lot more configuration onto the user and when those mistakes get made they dont need to take any blame because it was the user who made the mistake. Arch has pushed updates that have broken bootloaders how many times? I’d consider that to be catastrophic failure on any distro except arch where i think its fine as the user should be able to fix their bootloader pretty easily.

Most of that is pedantic. Its a solid distro with a sane out of the box configuration. However you shouldnt use the AUR on it unless you know what you’re doing.

QubesOS enjoyer?

I dont feel the need to tie myself into knots trying to dodge piracy or justify it. I pirate because i dont like these companies and dont want to pay for their product. It doesnt matter how easy it is to access all that matters is the licensing and the intent of the rightsholder to distribute it.

No, its not that. I dont suggest people switch GPU unless absolutely needed. That GPU should be able to have a great time on Fedora. When you used fedora did you install the proprietary driver? Because Bazzite ships the proprietary driver but Fedora ships the Open source one which is really bad.

What GPU?

Wow I had no idea how many services they provide and they do some serious numbers.

Awful, one of the first things I disable along side 1 click folder opening.

What’s MintPass? It wasnt clear how to get a token and Im not entering a ph number.

Dual booting is fine. Microsoft destroying bootloaders is mostly a meme off a few bugs. Any distro that ships an up to date kernel and drivers is good. Fedora/Ubuntu. Bazzite is kinda weird for gamers because it just makes every problem harder to solve. If you never tinker then its fine but Bazzite feels more restrictive than windows without knowing how it works.

Curiosity and fate. I was perfectly happy on windows but I was listening to the WAN show and they were talking about their 30day linux channel. About 2 weeks before the first ep my windows install completely bricked itself after an update and I couldnt recover the key so I was forced to either pay for windows again or stay on the free version. I ended up installing linux mint and it was an awful experience. Out of the box mint is pretty crap hardware compat wise. I tried a few other distros before settling on Manjaro where everything worked out of the box and from there i started learning linux.

I plan to keep moving distro’s every few years just to see different ways of learning linux. Im currently on Nobara and fedora on my laptop. I think its probably the best linux distro out there(fedora). I’ve tried gentoo but I did not get it working to the same standard as nobara. I do plan to try gentoo again because I liked being able to pick all the stuff on my system and compiling it. I didnt like selecting all the useflags tho.

I really hate windows but I dont find teams to be that bad. Outlook at all the 365 admin tools are far far worse. Luckily we’re moving away towards google and atlassian.

Its not worth switching GPU for this. 3070 should be plenty capable of running witcher3. Ive got a friend running a 3060 and she plays all kinds of games with very few driver issues.

We should troubleshoot your issue first and see if a new GPU is required.

I’d just delete the file and move on. Get ublock origin for the next time you need to torrent stuff. Its unlikely anyone is burning exploits on random piracy sites. 0 click exploits are like gold.

I follow linux news I like hearing about new features and have them come to my system quickly. I’d hate to have to wait years for anything new. I’m not worried about stability, i run nothing critical and if I have an issue I’ll just fix it.

This is amazing news. Hopefully they’re getting enough donations to cover this.

Breaking 30-40% of your things? Are you sure those are Wayland issues?

Its a fun little project and I like the little character but it doesnt actually do anything at this point.

SteamOS 3 is arch based but that doesnt mean its anything like arch. It builds from a snapshot of arch and ships that to users as an immutable. So it will be extremely out of date compared to arch.
