I have my network using it, no issues as of yet.

Wlcome to the age when the only correct infra is the one you self-host.

I get it, I see the comment sections. Tribalism is everywhere.

Not bad. I take issue with the part of the article called "distro wars". There is no war, but I dont expect them to "get it". These cringelords seem to have a need to meme-fi everything, really dings the tone of the reviews. Am I reading a tech review or an opinion article?

Eeh

The only gold standard here, is this article being the gold standard for hand-wavy "truths".

Such a load of BS. Mullvad is the only one so far that has not squealed.

Maybe stop giving all the electricity to the AI datacenters then you bloody gits.

Who do you think is lobying for this? We dont have companies in the EU that would benefit from it.

Reminder, @chaoticnumber, revisit this comment in a year.

I would rather jump ass first into a cactus plantation, than give these fucks my data.

Call your MEP!

There was that saying that a healthy society is one where man plants trees whose shades they won't live to see, or something along those lines.

Trump is planting the seed of destruction he won't be around to see the effects of, the literal opposite.

I guess we don't live in a healthy society. SHOCKING

Hey, I wanna be right, you know? :D

I give them a year before they piss off the dev community.

 

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
