Ok. If ever you want to try Bazzite, here’s the download link: https://bazzite.gg/#image-picker
Then choose: Desktop > Nvidia RTX Series > KDE > Traditional Desktop.

Have you decided on Mint yet? If not, the Bazzite distro will be easy to use. All you need to do is download the Nvidia image and install it. It will work right away. Steam and the Nvidia drivers are already installed and configured. No configuration is needed.


As the other commenters said, it is illegal. The most important thing is to be informed about your rights so that people and companies do not take advantage of you.


I’m talking about the fact that Cosmic will be PopOS default DE.
Exactly. The most important thing is to do what we can.
The trick is not to go too extreme too quickly. It has to be a gradual transition to using privacy-respecting products, or else you’ll burn out.
I started by switching from Windows 10 to Linux, then using ProtonMail instead of Gmail, then Lemmy instead of Reddit. I’m slowly transitioning to other services and software that respect my privacy.
Look at it as a journey.


Unfortunately, System76 hasn’t shared any specific details or an official timeline yet. But don’t worry—we’ll be among the first to let you know as soon as there’s news, so keep an eye out for updates.
It’s better not to have a definite timeline and to release it when it’s ready. First impressions are key because this will be System76’s main distro for their computers.
How sturdy is it? I currently use Ubuntu 24.04 on my MacBook 2014, and I want a laptop with the same construction quality.


European Union, stand up to this bully, you’re the second second largest economy, act like one.


Please. Get a life.


sigh… Stop beating a dead horse. I’ve been using Manjaro since 2022 with absolutely no problems.
Get over it!


Eh… The blog post left me hungry. He doesn’t talk about his experience per se.
I ran the tests with the thinking model. It got them right. For these kind of tasks, choosing the thinking model is key,


All it takes is momentum. It’s a chicken-and-egg problem, and I think it’s gaining momentum because of Valve. Gaming was always the one thing stopping people from checking out Linux.
Now, however, more and more people are trying it out. More tech YouTubers are trying Linux, which means more exposure. Distros are becoming more refined. KDE is much better than it used to be because of Valve. All in all, there’s true momentum building.
In due time, Linux will be preinstalled on computers and laptops, and because of this, more people will contribute to Linux. People are fed up with the bloat and heavy AI push of Windows 11.


Keep coming back to Wayland. I’ve been using Linux as my main desktop OS since 2022, and at first, I encountered many issues with Wayland (KDE). However, I kept coming back and testing Wayland as the bugs were fixed. Now, Wayland is great! It feels like a true modern operating system — much better than Windows.
The problem first became apparent to Tesla in March of this year after complaints about unintended hood opening from Chinese customers. By April, it had identified the problem as deformation of the hood latch switch, “which could prevent the customer from being notified about an open hood state.”
Given that China is now an electric car superpower, this situation will not bode well for Tesla in that country.


This post does not belong here. This is not a post about technology.
Yup, this is huge. Wayland gaming is now a possibility. With Explicit Sync (needed for NVIDIA users) and VRR, there’s now no excuse to keep gaming in X11 in both DEs.


It’s all about getting users to buy new PCs that can run the AMAZING AI! (I’m being sarcastic here). It’s good for AMD and Microsoft’s pockets.
