  • FSR works on Intel and Nvidia graphics too

  • that sounds like some cheap Chromebook and Chromebooks are not really fun to replace the ChromeOS with GNU/Linux and most people resent to Crostini or Crouton instead which works on top of an existing ChromeOS though

    the most important thing here is however the model name of the Chromebook which will determine how easy this process will be and if there actually issues on hardware (like Microphone, Speakers or Trackpad not working correctly on GNU/Linux)

  • I use it for cooking
    Bonus points for not being as sweet as wine with alcohol

  • you can delete an account but still mark the old email as "in use" internally in their database

    actually I would be surprised if they didn't do that in the EU if someones requests a deletion on behalf of the GDPR

  • An additional thing is that cronie/cron has no idea about an user desktop session out of the box while systemd user scripts do

    OP edited this solution which needed a special env variable DISPLAY
    this might be common knowledge but it certainly is not for a beginner

  • Cyanogenmod has been forked to LineageOS seven years ago

  • something to keep in mind is that both WSL2 and Linux container on Docker Windows use virtual machines
    these come with a drawback of additional overhead or cheaper hosted VPS don't allow to nest virtual machines inside their cheap ones

  • I'm kinda baffled people would jump ship because of this matter
    Snaps have been a thing for 7 years and before that Canonical did similar really weird things (Amazon shopping lense a decade ago anyone?)

    anyone who really cares already uses something else

  • CalyxOS is a similar custom rom which still supports the older Pixel phones aswell as the Fairphone 4
    my old Pixel 3 is still rocking on newest Android with monthly updates

  • Valve actually sells the Deck at a loss and hope to get it back on games.

    this was probably true for the first months but the hardware parts of the steam deck got cheaper over time in particular any flash chips (RAM/SSD) aswell as the older AMD APU

    probably the reason why Valve discounts it up to 20% in sales sometimes

  • at this point a lot of people who don't like Snaps just ditched Ubuntu for something else like Linux Mint or Debian
    otherwise you will be constantly fight against your distro maintainers with every upgrade

  • you probably only compile on one thread if you have a default /etc/makepkg.conf
    though compiling a firefox browser on 12+ threads still takes several minutes up to half an hour
    (try doing that with a chromium browser, thats hours rather than minutes)

  • Feel like system make monolith.

    you do know what the linux kernel is, right?
    Spoiler: It's a monolithic kernel

    In the end your distro packager decided to not split systemd into different packages, I believe only Gentoo does actually guide you to this
    so you actually barking on the wrong tree

  • Doom Eternal gets like 30 FPS with Ray Tracing enabled on the Steam Deck, granted in low settings
    you can already test this in the current Mesa version, the upcoming Messa 23.2 just enables it by default
