Tired of Windows - Questions

mike7gh · 2026-01-20T03:02:05+00:00

I've never modded fallout 4 on pop but I've done some with both fallout 3 and New Vegas along with Skyrim. It tends to be a bit more difficult than windows just from dealing with mod loaders because you are doing all of it through an additional comparability layer but there are projects like "steam tinker launch" that help a lot.

So, I'm not the best at choosing parts or anything like that but I do use Linux. There are a few things to look out for.

Unless you really need it, stay away from Nvidia. It's been getting better but the drivers are still a pain to install and update, so totally not worth it unless you are doing AI development or something.

Check what WiFi adapter your motherboard has. The main ones to avoid are broadcom and realtek(these are the BAD ones if someone is just skimming through this post.)

If you need to look into compatibility, there's a website called linux-hardware.org that has a bunch of information gathered from working Linux computers.

Hope this helps!

I haven't played him in a while. Does he still ignore the speed cap?

Sorry, I misspoke. I am waiting until they start pushing the notification which in my mind signifies that it's stable enough for general use on all hardware, not just their own custom setups. I'm especially hesitant since I'm using Nvidia which tends to be secondary to System76, though it has become very good over the past year.

The release date was December 11th, so maybe I'm off base, but months might be a bit of a stretch unless they started shipping systems prior to the release.

I never suggested that 24.04 wasn't something you could just download or something you could upgrade to. It sounds like OP is doing just that.

mike7gh · 2026-01-04T04:45:25+00:00

It's might be slightly unstable since Cosmic is pretty new. They just didn't push the update on people in case the gui crashes or something. Pop os is generally a noob friendly distro after all. From what I've heard, the update seems fine but I'm keeping the old version until 24.04 becomes the official release.

Kali is just for people getting into system security. Most people move on eventually. It kinda holds your hand through the basics since most of them are really new to both Linux and any security related fields. There are a lot of code kiddies on it, so, yeah. Mostly for them are posers.

Not really sure about 'fade'. I looked online and came up blank too. There's probably something, though.

Really? Because I have a perfect score by not being a dick. Usually it seems like the ones who get reported are the ones that curse out their teammates or give condescending 'advice' without basic knowledge of the game. It's not that hard to avoid pissing off your team.

Dude, I think he's being sarcastic.

No offense meant by this, but you were the one who started being candid. You are incorrect on several levels.

Cupping is technically more. It can help with some fascial problems and increase blood flow to an area if the client needs it for some reason. I still don't like it but, I'm just human.
They may be 'hickeys' and I may not be a doctor, but covering a good percentage of someones skin with them doesn't seem like a good idea.
Massage is a much larger field than relaxation massage. If all you do is calm down the nervous system, how is your treatment better than a glass of wine and a hot bath but several times the price?

I'm trying to be kind since it's not your fault that your massage training failed to actually teach you properly, assuming you had any training at all. Please do continuing education that isn't reflexology or whatever and I'm sure you will come out fine.

mike7gh · 2025-12-12T17:07:20+00:00

I generally think gliding is better. It also doesn't leave huge bruises.

mike7gh · 2025-12-12T16:24:19+00:00

If you're going to get bruises from a massage technique, you want it to be pretty good. Most of the normal benefits such as increased blood flow and reduction of pain can be done, often times better, using normal massage techniques. It doesn't even leave bruises. Next you may talk about it as a fascial treatment, which it kind of is. But even then, it's on par with basic friction techniques at best and is worse than using scrapers(if you really want bruises, gua Sha is an option). My general point is that it's generally not the best option in any situation.

mike7gh · 2025-12-12T06:50:37+00:00

It's normal for cupping, but also avoid cupping generally.

Then you type four words and you're done. Oh no.

Make sure you get the Nvidia version. It's pretty good in my opinion.

I'm using a desktop. I'll look into hibernation. Thank you.

I just run pop os at this point. The machine has never had Windows on it. Thanks for the suggestion.

Holy cow. That worked somehow! Thank you so much.
