  • What advice or tips do you have which sound like nonsense but really work?

  • The game I've been playing lately is the Oblivion remaster. I know the game is known to have subpar performance, but in Windows with ultra settings and RT set to low I get 130+ FPS outdoors and 180+ indoors, in kubuntu I was getting ~60-80 outdoors and ~100 indoors, CachyOS got me 80 indoors and 50 outdoors with extreme stuttering.

    All running on my 3440x1440 144hz monitor.

    I just installed Bazzite, we'll see how that plays.

  • I just installed CachyOS based off this recommendation, and performance is absolutely terrible right after installing. Do I need to install any drivers or change settings? Everything I see says that the drivers are baked into the kernel. But I am getting <50FPS with extreme stutters running the same settings I had on all the other OS'es I listed.

  • I'm running an AMD GPU (9070XT) specifically because I knew it was meant to work nicer with Linux than my 1080 did.

    I might give some other distros a try when I've got the time. It's a shame, I really liked kubuntu. (I know I can configure most distros to do the things I liked about kubuntu but I'm not the most knowledgeable when it comes to that kind of thing.)

  • I really want to and was mostly Windows free for most of 2025 but I can't get my new graphics card to perform well in either kubuntu or mint. Games that will run on ultra at over 100fps in Windows will get 60-80fps on medium-high settings on kubuntu. A tear runs down my cheek every time I see people say they got performance increases from switching. Even my old hardware performed slightly worse.

  • Open-sourcing CORE One CAD Files Under the New Open Community License (OCL)

  • Like I said, I'm not the most knowledgeable person on the subject, so I don't know if there was more to the outrage than just "it's an Israeli company". I'm not currently in the market for a prusa printer, so I'm not particularly invested in their politics, just speaking on things that I have seen in this community

  • I'm far from the most knowledgeable on the subject, but I remember hearing something about one of their prospective printers not being listed as open source, and that they partnered with some Israeli company.

  • What desktop operating system would you recommend to the average user?

  • Mate I'm no fan of Apple but half the stuff you said is completely subjective or based off 2012 era memes. How do you define "overpriced" or "underperforming"? In terms of price, the hardware in their machines is usually pretty good, build quality has always been great. You'll have to elaborate on "underperforming" as I'm not really sure what you're saying with this.

    Not one person has been arrested yet after the Epstein files were released ? Are 9-5s working 30+ years to keep their overlords rich?

  • Do something about it then. Something something, 9-5.

  • Rightwing critics blame Mamdani as New York snow fails to melt

    Jump

  • ... No? My first thought when I read the title of the article was, "well obviously he can't control the weather."

    But rather than immediately saying "Republicans bad" and moving on, the second thought occurs, "maybe they're complaining about the logistics side of things, like snow plows and clearing teams?" which would be a valid complaint.

    Finally, instead of simply accepting the followup thought, we read the article, and see that they are in fact complaining about the man not controlling the weather.
