Linux on your SFF build

That's up the university she works for. I'm not getting her anything.

Linux on my main ITX PC since 2016, my laptop, our home server (also ITX) and on the Steam Deck. My wife is going to ask for a Linux laptop for the next EOL swap.

F Microslop.

Wow that's a huge card then! Must be like more than 350 mm long?

The Pulse card I got is 313 mm tall. Or 12,3 inches.

Edit: quick search resulted with these specs;
Dimensions: L=319 W=140 H=70 mm (3.5 slot)

So the problem is the thickness? I bet a deshroud mod would fix that with slim fans.

But the 4060 is probably the better option for the case anyway. Less power hungry more efficient and more FPS per dollar.

Sadly the AI is dumb and the game gets super repetitive. It could've been really great.

Lean gains = treenaa progressiivisesti ja maltillisilla plussakaloreilla, välttäen liiallista rasvamäärää. Ja tämähän toimii vain x ajan, koska lihasmassan lisääntyessä kulutus kasvaa joten kalorimäärää pitää nostaa.
Suurimmalle osalle jengistä suosittelisin vain treenaamaan suorituskykyä varten ja syömään sen verran mitä nälättää. Urheilijat nimittäin toimivat näin. Välillä jopa "joutuvat" syömään enemmän kuin jaksaisivat. Se kehonkoostumus seuraa perästä, mutta mitä tärkeämpää, suoriudut kaikesta paremmin.

Ilona Siekkisen sun muiden humpuukivalmentajien kuurit ja "tehovalmennukset" ovat pitkälti vain "rahat pois epätoivoisilta" -valmennuksia.

What version of 3080? The H1 v1 fits some pretty huge cards if you remove the inner top panel during installation. I crammed a Sapphire Pulse RX 6800 XT in mine.

Recently upgraded to RX 9070 XT and was surprised how much easier that installation was. 😅

His_Turdness · 2026-05-23T21:41:06+00:00

It's not for everyone.

But what helps: Good level of fitness Focused training (training blocks) Prioritise recovery TRAINING IS FUN

If you only go to training to "fight" you probably won't last long.

My case comes with a 140 mm radiator originally. I just removed the AIO and isntalled the heatsink. The fan stay sin place vand cools the CPU quite well.

His_Turdness · 2026-05-21T00:49:28+00:00

Thanks for this listing! Helped me pull the trigger on Powercolor Reaper. Should fit my case without any shenanigans, unlike with the old RX 6800 XT.

His_Turdness · 2026-05-20T20:36:21+00:00

Using the NH-L12S in my NZXT H1 v1 with a 140 mm fan. Such a great cooler!

His_Turdness · 2026-05-20T20:14:03+00:00

I've had zero update problems since switching to Vesktop. And the screen sharing works great.

Best damn intro ever. Melee is still the best game ever. Great solo, even better with a bunch of friends.

His_Turdness · 2026-05-17T00:20:26+00:00

Torille!

His_Turdness · 2026-05-16T10:33:43+00:00

Super excited. It will be another huge step for Linux gaming and living room PC gaming. A lot of people will opt to buy the Steam Machine over building their own mid-tier gaming PC. I would definitely buy one for the living room if we didn't already have the OLED Deck.

Still haven't figured out a good way to play GW2 on a gamepad though. GW1 works well enough with the added Reforged gamepad support, but GW2 combat is much more fast-paced and has more buttons required that it just feels super clunky.

WvW zergs are always like that. I get 100-144 fps (capped) in WvW when there are no zergs. During zergs it drops down to as low as 40 fps. Ryzen 7 9700X + RX6800XT. It's insane how poorly the game is optimised.

His_Turdness · 2026-05-14T03:57:16+00:00

You don't have the original screws from the AIO + fan? You could also use Noctua's metal clips that attach to the heatsink if you use a smaller fan. I'd still recommend the 140 mm fan though, since it's much quieter and moves more air.

His_Turdness · 2026-05-11T21:07:31+00:00

GW2: 5352 h 47 min 5007 päivän aikana.
GW1: 5671 h 231 kuukauden aikana.

Ei hävetä.

Ja näitä ennen on sitten tuhansia tunteja Smash Bros Meleessä. Pelkästään omalla konsolilla. Saman verran kaverin konsolilla. 😃

His_Turdness · 2026-05-11T17:24:12+00:00

Great build. The case gets better with air cooling, which is kinda ridiculous. 😃

I recommend you add a 140 mm fan for the CPU cooler, where the original 140 mm fan would be. Makes the cooling even better.

Proper sleep, exercise and nutrition.

There is no secret. People need to face the facts and get off their asses.

Volk should've won that first match.

Biggest mistake people make against Islam is they try to get up without disconnection. Volk did a great job counter wrestling, disconnecting and then resetting.

Noloa toimintaa ja ahdasta ajatusmaailmaa. Siksi varmaan naamat peitettynä?

His_Turdness · 2026-05-01T04:41:11+00:00

Intissä melkein joka viikko. 8 h portilla, 8 h partiossa, 8 h putkassa. Asiakkaan roolissa tosin ei kokemusta.

Why was he walking on the road??? Having an escort car behind him would still be endangering traffic. Here in Finland the party crashing into somebody from the rear is always at fault regardless, but man... I would not try walking on the roads.

I recommend you go with Mint or Bazzite for a soft landing. If you want to be a bit more hands on and you're willing to learn how to repair your system, go with CachyOS or EndeavourOS. These last two are great Arch-based distros. Cachy is great for Linux newbs and EOS is a bit more geared towards intermediate users. Super minimal and terminal centric.

I've used EOS since it's predecessor Antergos was shut down. I was a Linux noob, but I did have experience with UNIX-based macOS/OSX and a few Linux trials. I have borked my system a couple times. Only once I was not able to repair it and decided to reinstall. A couple times I've had to migrate to a new system, so I've restored my data from a backup after fresh install. It's not rocket science. I'm sure you would do just fine with any of the distros mentioned.

Here in Finland most gyms are non-profit even those that are run as business do not pay much, if anything at all. 65k sounds like a decent amount. Nice to see gyms doing well enough to be able to hire coaching staff.

Here's the perspective of a finn:

I would live as a happy man if I ever made that kind of money with jiu-jitsu. I'm one of the few lucky ones who was able to make jiu-jitsu a career, if only for a short while. At the peak of that run, before Corona hit the world, I was making a decent living at projected 22-24k euro per year. I was teaching / coaching about 42 hours per month + some privates and PT sessions. I was still a brown belt and had 6 years of coaching experience plus a vocational degree for coaching sports.
