If replayable is what we want, I'd save csgo instead of cs2

I loathe this approach. But for me its more of a hobby and even then, I too am alergic to overt complexity, but saying no maintenance is asking for a security hole to open, sure it can be automated away, but it still takes at least SOME work.

The main reason I dislike this approach is by doing things as simply as possible you delegate the control to the developer of your solution. Its not a one size fits all thing. Some solutions can for sure be turnkey, but most should require some work, because we do this to regain control, not delegate more of it away.

Excuse me, I'm curious, how does one mess up their search history?

Yeah, my fist step was tuta as well, I ditched them after a month for malbox.org. never looked back

If you want to use clients other than a webmail tuta wont fit your needs. But, to that end, try both, they are both excellent in their own ways, see what suits you.

1T$ is a ... Loooot of money, it makes no sense for any one person to have that much.

For example, the German government spending for 2024 was arount the 2T mark. So Elmo here could fund the German state for half a year with this deal.

One person. Dude...

Ultich, dont take this the wrong way, but thats how you are using systems and thats how you see them. It is your perspective, not everyones perspective.

Computers are not just one thing, one tool. They can be, they are, many times. But for many of us they are hobbies, a thing to tinker and experiment with, thats who you the the pretty UIs from.

I get that ignorance is bliss, but you can not paint the whole ecosystem with the same brush. People are different. Generally yeah, you are right, but it is also a very ignorant way to look at things.

Hullo! Beyond the pantomime of AI, I noticed something similar. I'm in the workforce for about 20 years now.

The management pushes back hard when you get too close to changing the modus operandi, because its a few short steps away from automating away the middle management. If you get rid of one cohort, whats there to say that you cant do the dame of another.

Abstractions aside, it more of the same, company A sells consulting to company B, that sells services to company C. The product from "A" is barely if at all seen in the output towards "C", because of the whole, overinflated process. Just so you can sell some bullshit along with the meat and potatoes.

Dont fret OP, I think you are right on the money, regardless of some here say.

Yes. But its my outlet, its keeping me sane. Looking at the worlds nowadays, this is my happy place. More therapy than anything.

Oh god, where do I start?

3 node proxmox setup:

Net node:

  • opnsense (dns, dhcp, edge firewall, wireguard)
  • caddy
  • ssh hub

Compute node:

  • a few game servers
  • wiki (kiwix), full copy of wikipedia
  • searxng
  • docker host (portainer plus 10ish containers)
  • forgejo
  • testing vms
  • a separate zfs mirror

Storage node:

  • all drives, zfs + mirror
  • proxmox backup server
  • home assistant
  • immich
  • ARR stack
  • jellyfin

Oh and a monitoring node made out of a rpi 4b with an nvme hat,running dietpi, prometheus, grafana and homepage (gethomepage.dev)

Thats about it plus automations and stuff, wireguard so I can access it from anywhere. Not separated properly, no network zones, just a few vlans for now, work in progress.

Indeed, but it preserves the ethos of being open, while the other does not.

 

Hi, am I the only one experiencing performance variability in games from install to install?

I periodically install other distros to see if the green is grassier on the other side and I decided to do a cleanup, migrate to lvm for my arch install while I'm at it.

I have gone through 5-6 installs in the last 3 weeks, several iterations of arch as well. I always play the same 3-4 games and I know how they should perform already and I am experiencing some weird performance variability, what do I mean by this?

  • Some installs have lower fps but stable 1% lows
  • Sometimes if feels stuttery, even though the frametimes are stable
  • Other times its just perfect

I am not doing anything out of the ordinary, archinstall with my setup, install steam, start my games.

  • All AMD system
  • single NVME
  • Plasma with wayland

I'm stumped, I feel like an idiot looking at this issue because it makes no sense whatsoever. I finally nailed the setup after figuring out how to get LVM running, got everything going and now, it's a stuttery mess.

Edit: Things eliminated or fixed:

  • stutters removed by lowering mouse polling rate to 1000hz
  • wayland as a possible overhead by launching my games from the tty with gamescope
