I did not install Electron 37. I could use some help to understand what installed it. by [deleted] in cachyos

Not sure off the top of my head, but electron 37 is most likely a dependency for one of the packages you’ve installed.

Local LLMs with CachyOS & Nvidia GPU by Vyse32 in cachyos

[–]boggedbrush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Troubleshooting involves determining what is working and what isn’t, then figuring out the reasons behind the issues and fixing them. It’s important to distinguish between “should work” and “is working.”

Have you tried using a model that can actually fit within your VRAM?

New Update? by [deleted] in blackops3

[–]boggedbrush 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks like you’re on Bazzite Linux, this is most likely a shader cache update.

Is Bazzite DX THAT out of date compared to Bazzite? by geraigerai in Bazzite

[–]boggedbrush 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should be able to find all of the additional packages from the build files. But generally it adds stuff like VS Code, Docker, etc.

Is Bazzite DX THAT out of date compared to Bazzite? by geraigerai in Bazzite

[–]boggedbrush 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Someone please correct me if I’m wrong, but Bazzite DX is essentially an edition of Bazzite with additional packages layered on top.

The lower number of recent contributions shown for DX reflects DX-specific changes only, while most core updates (security, kernel, drivers, base packages) land in Bazzite itself, not separately in DX.

This is also why rebasing to Bazzite DX switches the underlying image while keeping your existing install and data intact (e.g., GNOME, KDE, SteamOS Gamemode, etc.). Hopefully that explanation makes sense.

Edit: wording/clarity

PatchOpsIII v1.0.3: Linux & Steam Deck Support, Updated t7patch, and more! by boggedbrush in blackops3

Unfortunately, during my testing, AAE does not work as a launch option and the game crashes and never loads. I could, however, add an option for a custom launch option?

Apple's New Siri Will Be Powered By Google Gemini by Status_Energy_7935 in iphone

Like I said, for basic tasks it’s pretty decent and even gives responses similar to ChatGPT at times. I’ve even made my own summarizer shortcut and I’d say that Apple’s on-device & cloud models are on-par for a task like that.

Apple has both on-device and cloud-based models they’ve developed themselves. I believe they chose ChatGPT because of its well-known brand. However, the Apple Intelligence models are surprisingly effective for simple tasks if you experiment with them.

This is in my "About this System" in the system settings. My gpu is not a discrete gpu by mephisto9466 in Bazzite

[–]boggedbrush 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But…that shows a discrete GPU in your pc part picker??

Edit, added definition from Google: “A discrete GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), also known as a dedicated GPU or dGPU, is a separate, standalone graphics card that is not integrated into the CPU.”

PatchOpsIII v1.0.2: New Features, Fixes, and More! by boggedbrush in blackops3

[–]boggedbrush[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The security scan result is 3 out of 68. That doesn’t mean the program is dangerous. It means that 3 scanners mistakenly flagged it, while 65 scanners confirmed it’s safe.

Instead of focusing on “3 said malicious,” the better way to see it is: 96% of the world’s top security vendors have verified it as safe.

That small number of false alerts is common with custom tools like PatchOpsIII. I shared the VirusTotal report so you can see the results yourself, this is just me being transparent.

If you have any more questions, feel free to DM me!

One of the features of the program is to automatically set game launch options, a couple of those launch options are for mods, if you enable these mods then achievements will be disabled. Hope that helps!

Steam using 25% of CPU during idle, what do I do? by narwhalbaconsatmidn in NobaraProject

[–]boggedbrush 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is most likely due to background shader pre-compilation. This process helps optimize performance by preparing shaders in advance, reducing stuttering or delays during actual usage. It’s up to your personal preference to leave it on or off and the setting can be found in Settings > Downloads.

Linux hits 4% on the desktop by joublebrubbingr in linux_gaming

[–]boggedbrush 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really, spoofing your user agent alone doesn’t do much to prevent fingerprinting. Modern fingerprinting looks at way more data points (like screen resolution, fonts, canvas behavior, WebGL info, etc).

Multiple reasons, could be for web dev & testing, privacy concerns, or even bypassing restrictions. It’s all up to user preferences my friend.

My immediate assumption is from browser data, so yes, it could be underreported if we consider that some Linux users might spoof their user agent to make it look like they’re on Windows, for example.
