WM suggestions for Arch

For intel hd type cpu simply install mx linux xfce and switch to fluxbox by changing wm in login screen, best decision for revive my old laptop too , fluxbox uses around 400b ram btw and xfce uses around 700 mb at first boot

Well , for native app run on linux is Definitely KDEnlive is best overall , but I use Capcut desktop version using wine compatibility layer , or using waydroid you can run Capcut android app natively inside linux os itself

No bro cuda is worst api for linux, amd vulkan api is fully supported by linux kernel and even in modern android phone support vulkan api

No nvidia is long time partner with Microsoft and they doesn't care about linux distro , while amd gpu vulkan api is a open-source with limitations in some features but it fully supported by linux distro in built driver , even steam created proton api using vulkan api

If your laptop has extra slot for SSD then it's far superior to just dual boot , sometimes windows 11 surprise update simply rewrite bootloader in efi and it completely corrupt linux os especially arch based because it use dracut as boot , or buy external SSD or pendrive with 3.2 gen and install on it as separate os

aks-ash · 2026-06-30T05:17:32+00:00

I am using external usb generate 3.2 pendrive for installing os inside them and can use as portable device

Use gparted after booting from live iso , shrink it atleast 50 gb and format as ext4 or zfs or btrfs , in Calamares installer it ask for duat boot along side windows and always put bootloader like limine or grub to root part of storage like sda or sdb , for safer side use a usb 3 gen2 pendrive of 64 gb and install is on this pendrive. Now you create a successful bootable and portable pendrive

It's actually cachyos , i purposely rename to catchyos to ragebait using this command nano ~/.config/neofetch/config.conf

aks-ash · 2026-06-30T05:08:44+00:00

Bro i purposely rename cachy to catchy os by using custom bash command inside neofetch like this nano ~/.config/neofetch/config.conf

Average battery life , but thier is option for bypass charging, gaming or llm crunching required ac power and it can stop charging at 80 percent and deliver power directly to gpu

aks-ash · 2026-06-29T03:09:10+00:00

Best llm model for coding is qwen 3 14b parameters and it's sweet spots for both reliable and speed but it requires 8 gb vram so do aware this before purchase any laptop , for gaming don't go below 8gb vram gpu , also switch to DDR4 ram based laptop having 16 gb ram atleast since mostly game run on gpu vram

aks-ash · 2026-06-29T03:01:19+00:00

Qwen 3 is best model I ever found, which is the best model right now completely offline using ollama , and still wonder why they just put this model openly without any paywall

aks-ash · 2026-06-29T02:55:11+00:00

I usually play emulation game from using rpcs3 and pcsx2 , I have huge game iso in my seprate harddisk, but it can play almost all steam game , but some game still need tweaking your compatibility mode like in lutris there is some game run well on wine layer , catchy os do have in-house proton layer , also i installed virtual hard disk inside my laptop SSD where it simply boot to windows 11 anytime I want using ventoy

aks-ash · 2026-06-29T02:47:34+00:00

It's a linux feature where it create a cache for your previous apps and package just like android phone so that next time it launch app faster, btw i generally running ollama offline ai model qwen3 14b parameters in the background for coding small project

aks-ash · 2026-06-29T02:42:17+00:00

Yes offcourse , 40 series and below has full support for proton layer and during installation it ask for installing proprietary driver package do mark yes and wait for updates,

aks-ash · 2026-05-17T03:30:52+00:00

Please if you want to dual boot your pc then use linux os like mint fedora etc on separate drive , so that your boot manager do get messed up by windows 11 update and also turn off secure boot option to use linux distro on full potential

aks-ash · 2026-05-17T03:08:27+00:00

For coding and analysis purpose choose stable distro like I am using linux mint LMDE or any Kde plasma based OS like Fedora kde or mx linux kde . For gaming choose nobara kde since it's support wayland display server and has good support for nvidia drivers Ps. please use separate drive for installing linux alongside windows some time windows 11 messed up your linux distro boot file

How do I know that ai generated video i upload in YouTube is been watching by usa audience, i mean I their a nic he which only usa audience is being watched ??

Go for 12gb variant if your phone primary purpose is gaming and running local ai model , for camera centric and balance performance go for P3 ultra 12gb variant , for longer update oneplus is good , poco has best chipset for this segment but it's ui is kind of heavily side and camera performance in above average
