Yeah that’s a fair criticism. I can see how it would be polarising. Personally, I don’t mind a bit of slap and tickle in books and I think it thematically fits the hyper-individualist universes in each series.
Megan O’Keefe’s Protectorate Trilogy is a fun read that reminds me a bit of Hamilton’s writing without all the sex.
Seems like it would have been cheaper, easier, and better pr to just simplify settings or have them in more logical categories, but what would I know.
This is a weird one, but read up on folder structures. If you’ve used MacOS at all then the logic is very similar. However if you’re coming from a pure windows background then it can get confusing figuring out where everything gets put when you install applications or need to make changes to config files.
The Pop desktop environment and search works well the vast majority of the time but it’s handy to know how to find you’re way around when you hit a roadblock.

I like space operas if you can’t tell.
Nvidia is fine and I have a 3080. I have vrr on my 4k display working fine when run with 2 non vrr 1080p monitors, and full hdr support. That’s using the 570 driver in fedora.
I just don’t bookmark anything I don’t read straight away. If I want to read it that badly I’ll search for it again.
Awesome thank you. Didn’t even know that fstab was a thing
Ah, I think that is a windows drive with games on it. I originally was using Pop OS and tried to boot games directly from that drive before learning that you had to do a fresh install of them in Linux.
After a certain point that drive no longer appeared on Pop and it doesn’t show in fedora at all. Possibly the path got corrupted.
I still have pop installed to the same drive that I’m booting fedora from. I’ll try wiping that part of the partition and see if it fixes it.
Thank you that helps me narrow it down as I was struggling to interpret the boot log.
Lol. System requirements are 30, 40 & 50 series cards with 12GB of VRAM. Most of the cards do not have this due to Nvidia’s stinginess.
I just want to remove podcasts and audiobooks from my homepage.
The “Remote playback with a Remote Watch Pass subscription” just sounds like IPTV with extra steps. I’m kind of ok with them requiring Plex Pass for remote streaming for the server owner, but then I have lifetime so it doesn’t affect me. Might feel differently I was having to pay.
Piper is a godsend. It’s better than Logitech G Hub and much more like Logitech’s old simple software that let you quickly remap buttons.
I would say same standard of living but the difference is they had a kid and my wife and I don’t. We simply could not have the same lifestyle if we had children.
Pop OS worked straight out of the box with the Nvidia driver build BUT it’s using an old version of Gnome desktop environment so doesn’t have support for HDR or VRR. Pop is based on Ubuntu so all the Debian and Ubuntu terminal commands will be familiar.
Fedora is leading edge and so long as you opt in for non-open source drivers works with Nvidia and runs HDR and VRR in KDE (haven’t used the Gnome version).
Haven’t tried any other distros but Bazzite seems well recommended.
Lutris is the recommended software for non-steam games. If you search for that and Sims/EA you should be able to find out if it’ll work for you.
I only use windows now for sim racing and Vr, but I also don’t play online games with anti-cheat. Linux seems pretty stable and I’ve found it easy to use.
lol. I searched “nvidia 570 Linux” less than a week ago and nada. Just did it again based on you comment and it looks like it was released 2 days ago.
You’re an absolute legend! Thanks for the heads up.
VRR that works with multiple monitors connected. Unfortunately that’s an Nvidia driver issue rather than a missing Linux protocol, so could be waiting a while.
I’ve recently switched to Fedora KDE running version 6 and HDR looks great. Well worth the wait.
It was always worthless. Or, at least, it was always worthless thinking that LLMs were a substitute for reasoning AI, which is what it appears many people have been suckered into.
