I don’t know much about this stuff… But if I’ve understood patents right; Someone else can’t patent your idea if you can prove you have had it and used it before them, right? I know some good stuff like the 3-point safety belt was patented and then free to use by any car maker in the name of safety. Is that what is going on here?

The patent part just feels a bit off to me. What good is a patent if you are not going to exploit it?

I just don’t get it. I need a grown up to explain to me.

Bazzite is stable and “just works” but it achieves that by being a bit less conventional under the hood. Great for gaming and general computing.

If you like tinkering around, you might want to pick something else though.

For gaming, Bazzite is the best, most hands off, set and forget distro I have tried. I would really recommend Bazzite.

Not sure if it runs Unreal Engine 5, but it has Lutris installed and configured by default, so if it is as other commenters claim, you should be good.

It also has Steam amd Heroic launcher pre-installed, so everything is just there ready to play.

One of my previous jobs required we updated our personal phones and ticked a box in a document every month so that the company chat app was “on a secure environment/device”.

I normally keep my phone up to date, but my employer shouldn’t be telling me what to do with my private phone. I removed the company chat app since I didn’t want to comply with them controlling my personal devices.

After that they couldn’t reach me after hours. Great. After about 6 months they allowed me to use the chat app on my private phone again without insight or control over it. It may sound petty, but I think it’s an important distinction.

They don’t really advertise the server software on their website. How come?

They show off all servers, so surely it is self hostable. How come they don’t show off the server software?

I don’t doubt you could do it, but I’m rather looking for a reputable company providing it as a service. Not a random stranger on the internet 😄

This is me.

I work in IT and have no problem setting this up for my self. The issue lies in maintaining it, keeping everything up to date and secure.

I don’t want a second job. I just want it to work and I am prepared to pay for it.

I sent my self, or what are you asking…?

Can I buy the service somewhere?

I am over self hosting stuff. I just want someone to provide the service for me.

And then instantly a notification native to your DE saying “someone pressed the button”

I would recommend anyone to play competitive multiplayer games on Linux.

Competitive games, and specifically CS, has been my go-to for about 10 years (I am still shit tho). As you say, Valve will most likely not put anti-cheat that won’t work on Linux in it. But if they would do that, I would just not be playing CS anymore.

I play what I like, and if they would make the stupid choice to break it for my machine I guess they just don’t want me playing it any more. In that event, I guess I’ll just have to find something else to play.

Haven’t tried that distro specifically, but I have been gaming on Linux for at least 4 years now and Counter Strike is not a problem at all. It is my most played game and it works great for me on Linux mint.

I imagine running it on a distro that has a focus on gaming will only make it run even better and easier.

Give it a try!

If you want pretty graphics this is good.

If you want many frames this is bad.

Been using it on my phone and browsers for maybe a year. Works great.

Browser plugin can be a bit shaky at times, but that might just be some side effect from my config of LibreWolf or something else.

Uncalled for but 10/10 execution

Make an ansible playbook

Pretty cool!

Tried it out for 15 mins and it seems like a useful tool to replace organisational tools like Notion. As I understand it; It synchronizes its data between devices peer to peer on local networks with the option to back up to a server if needed.

Way better than other alternatives in a privacy perspective. The user experience was a little rough imo though. Very many details and the graph view was rather cluttery. It had the option to toggle some information off in the graph view, but I couldn’t really find a good setting that was both informative and not cluttered. Also, there were very many different types of views that were nested in each other when viewing pages. This confused me a little, but may become clearer if used for longer than 15 minutes.

All in all; I love this type of technology. I will likely use this instead of Notion for the few projects I have.

This has been my initial thoughts. Not a complete review. Try it out yourself! They have very good packaging alternatives.
