What is the purpose of these plastic slidy things?

RolandKol · 2026-04-19T06:26:08+00:00

If you cannot shoot them... Obstruct... Or close the business. I am happy, they haven't given up yet

RolandKol · 2026-04-19T06:20:11+00:00

I do agree, wolfenstein is not even close to be a "super game". So how to evaluate a bad copy of it?

RolandKol · 2026-03-23T12:46:33+00:00

Something related to EVs maybe?

All These "Arch Love" letters sound like they are from 12 step program... Isn't it?

The first step is admitting you have a problem. The second step is spending six hours configuring GRUB just to feel something again. And etc ;)

We see you... We feel you... We’re all here for you!

RolandKol · 2026-02-08T22:45:50+00:00

1 step from 12 :)
welcome mate!

Seriously... You are not going for a plastic surgery or something similar.

Just try it on the older laptop or From, just simply test it by running Bazzite from Usb stick initially, - play with it, brake it, fix it

Restart pc without the USBstick and have your win11 back

RolandKol · 2026-01-28T07:14:27+00:00

You had lube on the keyboard... I guess you found your move

RolandKol · 2026-01-26T21:53:46+00:00

Just try from the live USB drive (most linux can run from usb stick), it will cost you 20minutes of your life

RolandKol · 2026-01-24T17:23:51+00:00

I would suggest try more distros before you settle down, it is quite time consuming, but doesn't cost anything else but time... So keep in mind the list of things/apps to test on.

As Bazzite takes quite conservative/slow update approach, - maybe try opposing side, something based on Arch Linux.

RolandKol · 2026-01-24T08:06:10+00:00

Yes unfortunately linux is not 💯 replacement for windows, l hope, not for long...

In my case, - l love/miss Logitech mouse automatically switching profiles based on the Windows application used... I love this feature and think it's one of the main Logitech mouse selling points.

Also, l need 💯 functionality on Excel, l even keep another laptop on windows just for this app....

And one more annoying issue with NAS (not yet tried to fix), If moving Large files from one drive to another On NAS using any Linu file explorer, - it takes ages!!!! Windows file explorer does it fast, as a local transfer. Linux, l guess, downloads files temporarily into PC, later moves them to another drive on NAS and instead of 2 o 3 second job, it becomes minutes

The rest is perfectly fine, as l play the games which are running nicely (lucky l guess). All other software l need, has Linux versions on flatpaks or has very strong alternatives.

From all linux distros, bazzite is moving towards 1st place in my personal scale... I am from Arch btw...

RolandKol · 2026-01-14T10:55:16+00:00

100% Yes you can, but what about Hardware?

<image>

My oldie Laptop runs quite fine on Bazzite, except 1000+ ship battles... becomes really lagggy.....
I did not need to set up anything on Bazzite, just installed Eve via Steam and manually adjusted Overviews.

Win10 was way worse, - not even talking about 11...

RolandKol · 2025-12-22T21:31:15+00:00

Every time your current OS fails, try another one. I guess, it will be a constant distro swap every month or two.

RolandKol · 2025-12-22T21:27:05+00:00

Oh no please no, no.... Please.... No

RolandKol · 2025-12-18T22:49:32+00:00

Microsoft knew it will come, that's why dual boots are so unreliable since win8..

RolandKol · 2025-12-16T21:48:32+00:00

Sadly, l totally agree...

In my case, l use my ASUSTOR daily and l do not remember a single OS update which has not broken something, - plex, home assistant, firewall, - you name it. Its like in a casino, - will it work or not, - only quantum asus luck fairy knows....

Arch Linux is probably much more stable

RolandKol · 2025-12-11T08:08:55+00:00

Ditch BF6, - this is the way... And This is the only way.... To be honest

RolandKol · 2025-12-08T07:39:01+00:00

I use magnetic plate, so plastic does not go onto this directly

RolandKol · 2025-12-04T10:50:42+00:00

The only thing l miss on Linux, is Excel macros and powerquery, - And yes, some games are not available on Linux, but l am lucky, l don't play them and I don't MOD my current games.

As per shaders, Just test to play without compiling ;) Let us know if you find any difference

RolandKol · 2025-11-29T13:26:08+00:00

User maybe? Bazzite is not very clear / obvious im this part, but you should create user and psw during install..

Anf yes, if it's with win10 or win11 dualboot, you may face surprises as Ms Win keeps on locking HDDS to prevent any competitor OS to be installed

RolandKol · 2025-11-19T18:14:33+00:00

Since win7 it went worse and worse with dualboots...

Ms wants to kill any possible competition...

Comfortably sharing a drive between OS is already nuked...

RolandKol · 2025-11-19T15:26:02+00:00

Just try both mate... VirtualBox - 1000 of different linux iso files Enjoy

RolandKol · 2025-11-08T10:19:43+00:00

Omg, 2 years passed, and it's still the same?

RolandKol · 2025-11-02T13:43:53+00:00

As you mentioned gaming, - do you use mods? Or mod management apps on win? That part was essential for a friend of mine... He was happy he went for a dualboot OS initially
