Am I hearing that I just need to switch to Bazzite and this problem disappears??

not a nvidia user, but answer is likely - no. bazzite has no special magic nvidia drivers. their special thing is that thy prepackage closed drivers (which most distros can but not do so that they are not in legal trouble of redistributiing closed software or the ethics of distributing closed software in a foss promoting environment).

I’d expect that Bazzite and Mint would use the same Nvidia proprietary drivers without much noticeable change in performance

precisely.

there is a possibility that maybe going to a newer kernel version or vulkan or other system libraries can get you some more performance, but on average, it is not going to be more than 5% (there may be some exceptional games which gain more, where there were game/engine specific bugs which were dealt in specified period). these are also the performance differences that people say that different distros (bazzite, cache, newer ubuntu release vs older) perform better than others, but you can check many places that assuming that game was already supported well.

general reason for bad performance is - nvidia on linux is bad. (period). their drivers are bad (closed or open, for a long time open drivers could not even regulate power, so they were stuck in lowest power mode).

you do not necessarily have to buy new amd hardware. try checking out protondb database, and see if the numbers you are getting are same or similar to others with similar hardware as you or not. if you are, then that is the best that can be done. if not, find what special sauce do they have (maybe a different library version, or some flags, or environment variable)

latter. afaik they just add steam (proton is then packaged by steam) (though you can additional download a external wine(or proton)) and some stuff for obs i think

if it is not requiring license, it is either because you leave windows unactivated (because that barely has any use) or because they use some activation scripts which is illegal. it is very likely former. does it matter? not really

[–] sga@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

they are not rebranding. the main simple apps dev sold it to some company, and second main dev leads community fork afaik.

Html export is now really good. it can replace some basic md -> html routines.

also, now you can include pdf images (earlier only svgs were supported)

[–] sga@piefed.social 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

but how do you know you are done. maybe there are different ideas of what bogo sort is, but as i remember, it is basically a while true (or while false loop) with condition - while list_is_not_sorted { return_a_random_ordering }

non spoiler question - is this format fine? i think i have not left anything spoiler filled non marked, except the chapter title - i have no way to add spoiler to title.

Secondly the reason why i wanted to post spoilers, was that reddit spoilers community is one of the best places i have found for one piece discussion of latest manga cannon. the main OP comm in reddit is too random, and i do not like there are not many discussions regarding chapter. there is anime, adjacent media (games, dress ups, art), as well as other discussion. Earlier i found powerscaling sub, they atleast discussed chapter in main thread of week, but rest of threads were either filled with stupid propoganda wars (younko vs admirals, shanks vs mihawk, etc.) and i really hated that. then i found pirate folk, and did not knew they were a "hate watcher" community. so first few times, i liked how they were more critical, but eventually it got tiring. I (still not knowing the hate watcher part) thought why do they even read it if they just have to criticise OP.

then I stopped checking any other community. i know there are many OP communities outside of reddit, and i was(am) still subscribed to youtubers doing chapter break downs, but i never bothered trying other comms because many of them are too niche (either they heavily use japanese names and terms, which i do not know), or have actual japanese speaker writing in japanese as well.

I found onepiecespoilers, and onepiecetheories, and they are great. spoilers is bigger, and they have good (and healthy) discussion of chapter, as well as from the nature of being spoiler fueled, there is something which is added each day. well starting mostly from monday with hints (just reactions from some prominent folks, which are usually - "epic shit" and something like "mu"). they do not reveal much of anything. then there are brief spoilers on tuesdays (about 5-6 lines), usually by redon. they just give very basic idea, and major plot points.

brief spoiler for this week

-COVER IS LUFFY DOING PARKOUR WITH SOME MONKEYS

-IMU CALLS ROCKS DAVY JONES BUT ROCKS REPLIES HE'S NOT THAT GUY.

-ROCKS: "BUT I DO AGREE THAT WHAT IS "PROMISED" MUST BE FULFILLED!!"

-BIG MOMS JOINS THE TRIO IN THE BATTLE.

-THEY ATTACK TOGETHER, SCENE CHANGE

-ROGER PIRATES STILL CLASH WITH ROCKS PIRATES WHO START FIGHTING EACH OTHER (JOHN VS
GANZUI)

-GARP AND ROGER JOINS AGAINST IMU, XEBEC AND HIS TOP 3 ALL ATTACK TOGETHER.

-THERE'S AN EPIC DOUBLE PAGE WITH ROCKS, ROGER, GARP, WHITEBEARD, KAIDO AND BIG MOM
ATTACKING IMU ALL TOGETHER.

-BUT EVEN THAT MASSIVE ATTACK, IMU RECOVERS.

-CHAPTER ENDS WITH IMU USING DOMI REVERSI ON ROCKS AND ORDERING TO KILL HIS FAMILY.

  • NO BREAK NEXT WEEK.

these are enough to spoil someone who is here just for upper parts of story, but often oversimplify, sometimes even getting some nuanced things wrong.

by wednesday, normal spoilers are posted, which i have posted here (so i am one day behind posting them here). This is practically the best you can get before getting the raw scans on thursdays. sometimes raws have all the text painted out, so you still can not make out proper story. by friday mid-end day, we get scanlations, by 2-3 groups. there is OPSCANS and there is TCB Scans, and some others. among thesee I generally read TCB Scans, but i do not have any proper reason for this preference. if i am early, and tcb is unavailable, i just read the OPSCANS.

Each day some tidbits come, and we get chapter by friday night or saturday morning. whole week remains interesting.

If you guys feel this is a good way, then i shall continue this approach.

I would not be able to do everyday, but i can try to post the spoilers by wednesday.

Garp has recovered all his stonks. no more slandering the goat. apologise.

I love how kaido just said 'dragon (um, um, um)' and could not come up with anything.

I really want to see the double spread.

My hate for imu is immeasureable, and really dislike it (them. there gender is not clear, and there are ideas of them being trans, but likely male. still so shitty, i do not think it deserves more than it).

Imu is stupid strong. G5 luffy was god like before, now it does not feel like it.

i guess you mean bogo sort? just verifying that output is sorted requires O(n). In Quantum bogo sort, you can skip verification.

yesnt. agar is not exactly the food (it is one part of the food). we usually add other nutrients as well. consider agar like a staple bread (povides structure).

while true, they are effectively single use (in latter half of video, he slices open a cup, and shows cracks developing). these are, in theory, replacements for platic temporary cups. and the coffee grounds are essentially just a binder used in agar mix to harden it (kinda like adding wodden chips in some glue mix to make it hard).

they are different things, wget and curl do not have many overlapping use cases other than downloading stuff over http
