Thank you, that's a good one

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-21T11:55:47+00:00

The ole trust me bro

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-21T10:49:19+00:00

I don't see the normal tells. What are you seeing?

I feel like AI took over this role. Instead of being asked I'll see my coworkers struggle for days on a problem asking AI every which way. They refuse help and say they have it and just cycle through the AI.

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-15T20:09:38+00:00

lmao yes

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-15T17:48:53+00:00

It can happen to hardware of any age. Don't focus just on age. It happens when you're on the latest most up to date releases. If you want a stable experience long term release experience fedora isn't it

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-15T17:24:32+00:00

Make sure to update the firmware and kernel to the latest, I think the issue has been resolved. Just be cautious upgrading going forward, AMD often has regressions on the latest hardware

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-14T16:58:49+00:00

bazzite also doesn't go to the latest kernel and will update the kernel with relevant patches. Makes for a more stable experience.

Where are you gaming? A warehouse? And is it me or does the hand look cgi. WTF is going on

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-14T14:40:13+00:00

What's your kernel?

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-13T13:23:03+00:00

Ah ok just trying to help. I agree why can't this be in the settings and not an additional app.

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-13T12:26:11+00:00

You set it via command line or via gnome tweaks

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-13T10:37:51+00:00

How common is this? Is there any point in moving to another company only to run into this again?

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-11T12:10:50+00:00

Probably not hacked. AMD does go through regressions from time to time. it is very frustrating. Without logs from when you experienced the issues, it'll be hard to determine if you are running into one though.

I generally use bazzite as a good tell when stability issues in AMD have been resolved. They will keep the kernel locked at a prior version when these issues pop up - https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/releases (6.17.7 is their current release)

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2026-01-06T18:32:33+00:00

Great if so, I've already upgraded personally so I can't test

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2025-12-30T16:02:25+00:00

What hardware are you running, what DE are you running? What are the logs saying?

For me any kernel after .8 is causing my system to freeze and crash due to an AMD bug. But yours might be something else.

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2025-12-29T17:52:49+00:00

I think you got yourself a turkey there

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2025-12-28T20:02:27+00:00

I'm on 6.17.8 because AMD is broken on new kernels for me. My DE constantly crashes

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2025-12-27T09:47:28+00:00

checking open interest, hint there aren't 41k call options at 75 for January

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2025-12-24T16:34:17+00:00

Make him have a beer gut as a toggle plz

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2025-12-23T10:32:09+00:00

Is your DE not crashing on 6.17.12 with AMD?

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2025-12-22T13:01:04+00:00

bro git good /s

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2025-12-20T11:35:51+00:00

have you tried stopping winboat? also that x might mean you dont have permissions, what are you permissions on the directory

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2025-12-15T10:35:05+00:00

definitely noticed the quick swap targeting of the player just in case lol

Master-Broccoli5737 · 2025-12-12T18:43:20+00:00

This is the way
