Thrickles,

I lurk but currently not playing.

Thrickles,

I understood that reference.

Thrickles,

Bazzite has been wonderful. I went in skeptical about immutable distris for gaming but Bazzite has been such a great experience.

Thrickles,

I felt this same way until I jumped into the Omega expedition. It was an excellent crash course for all the game offers and I now feel way more comfortable jumping into the base game and doing whatever I feel up to.

Thrickles,

Cool, but would probably just install Bazzite anyway.

Thrickles,

Shame Cedar Fair sold Great America in California before this merge could be approved.

Thrickles,

But, it is remote! From your home…

Anyone been daily driving Bazzite?

Been keeping a keen eye on Bazzite as it seems like a good distro for people like myself who mainly use the desktop pc to play games on. But it doesn’t seem like a “typical” distro for a daily driver? How does Bazzite for example differ from Nobara which is another gaming-oriented distro? I’m just curious as I keep...

Thrickles,

Yes, and I love it.

I only use my PC for gaming and web browsing. I mainly stuck with Fedora, but also used Tumbleweed and Nobara. Regardless of which distro I used I was never fully satisfied with the initial setup or upkeep.

  • Fedora was great, but I was hopping around often and there was always a setup process to get Steam and what not installed and set up.
  • Nobara is a great option with gaming tools installed and setup for you. However, it’s maintained by a single (awesome) dude and major upgrades often require some manual work arounds.
  • Tumbleweed was great until there were updates. More times than not, updates failed due to repo or dependency issues.

Bazzite, however, is the first (and only, so far) distro where I quite literally install, reboot, launch and log into Steam, start playing games. No other setup steps were required as everything I need is baked into the image. And with the automatic updates there’s been no upkeep.

Since installing Bazzite I’ve had no desire to try anything else, which is great. More time for gaming. 🎮

Thrickles,

I tried a few themes but always go back to Breeze Twilight (dark bar with light windows).

Thrickles,

Doom 1 was my first real PC game and will always be special, as will Doom 2.

I adore zdoom and the modding community.

Doom 2016 is hands down my favorite after multiple playthroughs. It just feels incredibly satisfying to play.

Never finished Doom Eternal. The changes to combat are too frustrating to me.

Thrickles,
  • until there’s a PCI audit.
Thrickles,

I chose to use auto login for my PC. This way I’m only using my password to decrypt the drive after a reboot or the login screen after waking ffrom sleep.

Thrickles,

It’s a good change that reduces complexity, I’m all for it. Especially since it’s no longer required to add the launch command with every game.

Thrickles,

Bazzite right now. I only use my PC for gaming and get limited play time, so I usually wake it up and straight into a game. Bazzite has worked extremely well for me to achieve that with virtually no maintenance so far (updates are automated).

Thrickles,

the customer is tolerating it well

Sure am! It’s been over four years since I’ve had McDonalds (or any other fast food restaurant). Prices are absurd and the food is meh at best.

Thrickles,

I have seen this so many times, and I have laughed every time.

Thrickles,

So basically…

  • CEO claims responsibility.
  • Employees face the consequences.

That tracks.

Thrickles,

Still the best OST too.

Thrickles,

Since Fry’s closed only Amazon and Newegg remain as primary part sources, both of which are shitty companies. Closest Microcenter is ~500 miles away.

Thrickles,

Bed at 20:24 gang.

Thrickles,

Having that issue as well, confirmed there is a fix on the way: github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/1283#issuecom…

The Android Play store only provides Jerboa 0.0.49 right now, still waiting for updates.

Thrickles,

No deaths since 2011 seems sus.

Thrickles, (edited )

If you do enable the packman repo, expect intermittent dependency conflicts when running zypper dup. When it happens, wait a day or so for repos to update.

Edit: spelling

Thrickles,

I won’t go as far as unsubbing, but I definitely won’t watch them.
