Well i have to admit i've actually been treating gta online as a single player grind game for the most part. On ps4/5 i did play together with a friend of mine though, but playing in a lobby with randoms can definitely be frustrating, especially if you are a grinder because lots of people like blowing your shit up. I'm honestly still shocked that rockstar allows you to pretty much do everything in invite only lobbies now, because i remember having to do all kinds of tricks with my internet connection to get into a public lobby by myself.
Gekoloniseerd. And personally i've also been considering air cooling my cpu again just to switch it up a bit and see what it's like, plus on linux it might make my life easier because i can just let the bios control the fan speed instead of relying on reverse engineered open source alternatives to get it to work. I don't think i'll buy a new cooler until my current aio dies though. I'm pretty sure i've had it for 6 years now and it's still going strong.
If i remember correctly you can pass a txt file to pacman when installing packages, but i could be wrong. There is also BlendOS, which from what i can tell has an immutable base, with a toml config on top of it to install the additional packages you want. Never tried it myself though. I also use NixOS because i wanted to be able to reproduce my riced out system more easily if i have to reinstall. I do wish this space had some more competition, because it might make this way of running a distro more approachable. The closest thing i've seen aside from guix is probably those ublue customized images that you can build, but i'm not sure how comparable that is.
The fact that it's that noticable, even in games, is unfortunate and i don't know what would fix it. In my case i have a va panel that also flickers with vrr enabled, but i only notice it on the desktop. I only use window managers so i have keybinds to turn vrr on and off, which solves it for me. On windows it doesn't flicker on the desktop though, so i'm assuming it does some stuff in the background where it only gets turned on when i boot up a game.
Sounds fine to me. What i meant to say was that since it's all linux, the distro you pick is just customized for a certain usecase, but you can pretty much do whatever you want to do with any distro, but if you don't want to bother setting it up yourself, a distro that is already configured a certain way is more convenient, but which one is "best" in that case purely depends on what you want to do with it, but there isn't really an absolute "best" distro that everyone should use.
Well i've experienced the black screen during install on a vm install before as well, so i feel like it has to be a more common issue atleast. I do agree with the rgb/fan software just being pretty ass in general, but i was also having issues with openrgb just not starting at boot randomly, but it worked when launched normally, so that does seem more like a windows issue to me, though i will say it has been working fine for a while now. In my vm install i've also had a windows update stopping my usb dac from working. Had to revert the update to get it working again, after finding a weird chatgpt article online about what was causing it lol.
Idk man, when i started using linux with PopOS as my first distro 5 years ago, i don't remember anything not working as it should. It wasn't until i started using arch that i had to do more things myself, which makes sense cause it's a diy distro.
I legit don't understand how people are even using windows anymore these days. For the first time in years i did a bare metal install because my dumbass wanted to play gta online, which now has anticheat, so i decided to dualboot. First attempt to install the installer completely shit itself and the screen went black, could not recover from it. Even a full reboot did not resume the install process, so i had to run the install all over again. Now that it's finally installed i keep having weird issues with my rgb and fan control software randomly deciding to not autostart, and manually starting them does not work, or my fans just start spinning at max speed uncontrollably, and the only way to fix it is to do a reboot. Windows 11 has been out for years now right? It still feels like beta quality software, shit just keeps breaking, and then people have the gall to say windows just works lol.
Does fedora not have an option to run an LTS kernel or something, like arch does? That might help, unless you really need certain things that are only in the newer kernels.
For this reason i kinda like using pass + pass-otp as my password manager as well. I mean regardless they still need to know my master password of course, but on top of that they most likely won't even know how to use it since it cli based.
