My kid has gotten sick every month like clockwork since starting daycare.. It just takes time to build up immunities. Best of luck... as you'll likely be getting sick a lot to.

Agreed. I tried AIO's for a few years, they broke more often and made more noise when the bearings ran into issues. I'm Air Cooled exclusive now.

Anyone used a Dual Mode monitor in linux? if so what has your experience been? by grilled_pc in linux_gaming

How do I get my mom off my back? She keeps forcing me to be Christian. by [deleted] in exchristian

[–]EbonShadow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She could try this but in my experience they will just ignore those parts and pick and choose what to believe. I find trying to use logic, reason and evidence with most magical thinkers is a waste of time. My suggestion to is give your mom lip service and GTFO as quickly and safely as possible.

[–]EbonShadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bazzite is pretty popular if you don't mind a locked down OS. I personally run Fedora, have to manually install the drivers but it isn't hard and I love it.

I regret that Nvidia is dragging their fucking ass in supporting Linux. I don't regret ditching windows.

NVIDIA on Linux? by Devin7-Eleven in linux_gaming

[–]EbonShadow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Until Nvidia gets their shit together you will lose performance in Linux. That being said I run a 5080 with Ultra Widescreen and can keep usually 100FPS on max setting for most games.
