I had a problem with Fedora 42, where the performance of my games would be fine one day and abysmal another day. Couldn't find a pattern. I googled a ton, tried to debug myself, asked on reddit, stackexchange, the fedora forum and lemmy. I only got answers like "Works fine on my machine, noob" and "I have that problem too". It only affected games running in proton on heroic, everything else was fine.
After about a year of on-and-off debugging and asking around, I swallowed my pride and asked ChatGPT.
First answer from that thing was correct: I had run
dnf updatewithout doing aflatpak updateright afterwards. Turns out, flatpak has its own copy of Nvidia drivers and if the system driver is updated without the flatpak copy being updated, it falls back to software rendering. So the performance was crap until I didflatpak updatethe next time, and broke again when I randnf update.I still haven't found that in any documentation so far.
AI is crap more often than not, but it does at least try to help and sometimes it actually does.
Look in this thread here. Is there even a single answer that tries to help OP, or is every single answer here just dumb snark?
It's true that people on the internet can be dicks. Even more so technical people (and that's not limited to online: those online dicks are usually IRL dicks when taking technical stuff). But that's a hurdle, not a barrier.
There's little anyone here can do to help OP, as they (if I understand it correctly) have already irreparably nuked their hardware. The current problem is significantly different and harder than the original problem. Asking randos on this community is unlikely to yield results. Hence the focus on variations of "Now... what did we learn? ๐คจ"
I'm not trying to help, as I'm not familiar enough with SAS nor the current problem. The same is likely true of others here.
The only evidence that OP irreparably nuked their hardware is ChatGPTs word.
The bigger issue ad hand is that everyone here is a noob when it comes to exotic hardware like SAS, and still everyone here thinks they are 1337 haxors enough to tell OP that they are a noob idiot.
Tbh, if OP asks for help here and there's 49 comments of people being dicks and one that actually helps it might be worthwhile. But as it stands it's 50 to 0, with nobody here beeing educated enough to know anything about the subject.
I love how you ignore all the comments that actually tried to help OP. Or maybe you posted early on but you can't be bothered to go back and edit your response. And then you pretend that AI tries to help us do anything, as if it had motivation or volition. Come on now.
