Seconded. I recently moved my gaming rig from Nobara to Bazzite because this machine is only occasionally booted, and I don’t want to spend the little time I have available for gaming doing maintenance instead. Except from a mounting error for my secondary drive that I made (bc after 20+ years on Linux I still can’t be arsed enough to learn how to fstab), I was in Cyberpunk 2077 in less than 5 minutes.

Pros:

• Easy setup, everything works out of the box
• A lot of preinstalled gaming-related packages and tweaks, plus a lot of QOL improvements over Silverblue/Kinoite
• Ready to game as soon as it’s installed
• No updates, no maintenance! Full system images are downloaded and installed in the background and are applied at reboot.
• Immutable so “impossible” to fuck up.
• uBlue projects are not distros but a delivery system, all the work is actually done by Fedora. No risk associated with a single-maintainer project like Nobara.

Cons:

• Immutable so “impossible” to fuck up.

Pro tip: don’t keep your Steam games on a Windows partition. They won’t launch.

Must know Jira, Python, Snowflake, dbt, how to find the will to live.

Nice ❤️

I’m guessing Portugal?

I replaced the idiotically loud motherboard fan with a 24V 40/10 Noctua. It needs slightly longer screws than the stock ones but otherwise it’s a drop in replacement. Noise levels are much more acceptable now.

You mean Cornwall?

Haha thanks !

I would like to say I’m used to fstab too but honestly I barely have to use it once every five years 😅

The issue was indeed from the fstab. But it was because exec was specified before users.

The games crash long before launching proton. I suspect something is fishy in the runtime or even before that.

Worst case scenario, I have to nuke this drive and start over. I’ll keep digging tho.

Good call. I’m seeing some stuff I don’t like, I’ll investigate tomorrow.

I recognize a lot of legit artists. A lot I don’t know too.

I however have issues with this playlist. John Carpenter, Tangerine Dream or Vangelis are not synthwave but OG 80’ music that inspired synthwave, and this playlist lacks very important, genre-defining artists like Carpenter Brut or Perturbator.

99% of the time, if a game “should run fine” and nothing happens, it’s because it’s installed on a Windows partition (NTFS or exFat).

Try moving it to a Linux partition.

If it still doesn’t work, you can start advanced troubleshooting.

I had to swap the stock fan for a Noctua since it was unbearably loud, adjust the volumetric flow and spend some time adjusting the Z-offset. I should also tension the belts a bit but it looks super non-trivial.

The SV08 has been out since at least summer. I’ve had mine since September and I’m super satisfied with it. It is not a beginners machine however, there are a couple of mandatory tweaks and upgrades to make it usable. Nothing unsurmountable but having modded the shit out of my Ender 3 helped a lot.

Unless most “relevant” answers point to a Microsoft help forum with shit answers.

I have to use windows for work and I hate this bullshit.

Links means Left in german. Same pronunciation. Bilingual play on words if you will.

Ok, opposite take.

Somebody with business knowledge with just enough technical Excel knowledge to cobble together a 5000 lines monstrosity of unreadable, unmaintainable python+pandas workbook that needs 2 painful hours of single-threaded processing time each run, with zero understanding of general development best practices, technical or organizational constraints, who asks us tu put their shitstain straight in production today because our fucking moron of a manager told them so.

Said shitstain could have been replaced by a 2h workshop and a couple of sql queries.

Said shitstain crashed almost daily in production. The running costs alone would have been offset in a month by a 1 week refacto.

Fuck this place. I’m glad I left before becoming insane.
