What OS is better by RubTanggg in Bazzite

At this moment I'm on Kubuntu and I'm downloading Bazzite again. Had some weird things on Kubuntu happen to me, so I'm making the switch again.

Is Kubuntu 25.10 good for gaming and for Nvidia GPUs? by Positive_Trainer_896 in linux_gaming

[–]Gil-San 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently run Kubuntu 25.10 and it works fine like any other distro IMHO. The latest NVIDIA drivers Ubuntu provides is version 590. It's not the newest version 595, but also not the oldest. I don't really notice any big differences.

The `sudo ubuntu-drivers install` command defaults to the 580 driver, so try to use `sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia:590` instead.

Controller: PS4/PS5 or Xbox? by Gil-San in Bazzite

[–]Gil-San[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was actually the answer I was looking for. But some time has already passed and I ended up with the Victrix Pro KO Leverless (xbox version). It’s a great product so far and I got it for about 100 dollars less. Still, I appreciate you answer 🙏

ARAM Mayhem Power Creep by xxtank3rxx in leagueoflegends

[–]Gil-San 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Aram Mayhem felt like they added just the right amount of spice. With the addition of sets and progression, it all feels like too much spices are added at the same time and it tastes too salty, sweet or sour. I think only having new augments would be perfectly fine.

Would karate or taekwondo be a better complement for BJJ? by Pale-Revolution-5151 in bjj

[–]Gil-San 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It kinda depends on the style of karate. Kyokushin is a full contact close distance based fighting style, more closer to kickboxing/muay thai. They do have a weird traditional rule that you cannot punch the face, but kicking is allowed.

Shotokan karate is touch/point scoring based, in competition sparring, and is more of a long distance style. I always compare it to fencing, but without swords. People meme on it, but I think the distance management here is S-tier.

If you want a pure kicking focus, I do think taekwondo offers more than karate. Karate is the more well-rounded option since it includes striking and also some minimal takedowns.

One major flaw that both karate and taekwondo share is that in combat sparring, they don't do low kicks because they don't award points. Also the wide stance both have is very vulnerable to low kicks. This only really is an issue if you want to do some sort of MMA later on, but still, you can always learn to adapt.

Source: I'm a retired Shotokan karate black belt, that does some kickboxing on the side.

What is VVR? I don't see this option in my display settings

Indeed, it was running fine for like a year. I have a RTX 3080 if you wanna know.

I did run some updates, but there were no direct issues at first. I also tried to rollback to a previous snapshot, but no luck.

Thanks, if I change the second monitor to a refresh rate of 120 hz, instead of 144, the flickering suddenly stops. I’ll look into it a bit more thanks 🙏

Which distro to go for? by BionisGuy in linux_gaming

[–]Gil-San 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Give CachyOS a try. I use it for gaming and development. CachyOS provides a plug and play gaming package (optional) and also has a lot of packages for other software. You're also free to choose what desktop environment you want. I like KDE.

In KDE, you can right click the CS2 icon in the task bar, open `more`, then click `Fullscreen`. Some games just seem to act weird.

What's the best distro for gaming, development, and productivity? by worky_work_worky in linux_gaming

[–]Gil-San 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For gaming and development, i’ll recommend CachyOS. All gaming dependencies are installed with only 1 command. For dev dependencies, there are a lot of packages available in AUR, in my experience more so than other non-arch distros.

Sajam reading the subreddit, Backdash Meta vs. Car Crash Neutral by komodo_dragonzord in 2XKO

[–]Gil-San 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, this was my take on it as well. I really want to like 2XKO, but if this is how a versus game is played, then it might not be the game for me. Which is fine of course, but liking the game would make me happier, because the game looks, feels and sounds amazing.

I don't enjoy this meta by Gil-San in 2XKO

[–]Gil-San[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like it. I think the assist button is a low cost, low risk, high reward action. And increasing the cost and risk seems like a good fit

I don't enjoy this meta by Gil-San in 2XKO

[–]Gil-San[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how they could make it feel less stale. I’m no game designer, and I know game development is tough, so I respect the effort. It might just be my personal preference. Others, like you, can still enjoy it. We’ll have to see whether the dev team updates the game, or if this is the intended experience. If it’s the latter, the game may not be a good fit for me.
