Yes, they are dominating the handheld gaming market and will continue to do so for a while.

This has nothing to do with your personal preferences.

You won’t regret it.

But be aware, it is an immutable distro. This means that it is basically unbreakable (you hear stories about how linux machines can become broken by some update or such, but not bazzite or other immutable distros).

But this also means that if you don’t find an flatpak (or appimage) of a program you need, it can be a little teadious to install it.

Just a warning. The distrobox option is especially flexible and powerful, but you do need to do a little reading up and setting up to install stuff using these methods.

Otherwise everything on bazzite JUST WORKS, especially gaming. And the flatpak store has a ton of stuff, I have never needed anything that wasn’t on there.

SteamOS is free to use for everyone, making it a legit Linux FOSS operating system.

It’s not easy to install for non-technical people though. But Bazzite is, and it’s basically a different “flavor” of steamOS.

It’s what I use, and it’s great.

Good point! I mean, valve doesn’t even report to stockholders!!! Bad valve, bad.

And valve has already won. Everyone else is just playing catch-up, and good luck catching up to a Linux-driven steam-integrated platform. You will need it.

Mozilla should approach proton to try and get accuired. I would love to see Firefox and Thunderbird become part of the proton landscape.

You certainly have to learn new ways of doing things when you want to tinker, but they are basically UNBREAKABLE, which is my main plus point. I’m busy, I need my PC to be reliable. I don’t want to have to troubleshoot stuff just to keep it up and running.

If I had more time I would really enjoy the tinkering, but I don’t so I need my distro just work.

If this what works for work stuff, then more power to ya. I just hope you don’t do any personal stuff on there…

You will love it. Great for gaming, flatpaks are the standard, and local AI is easy to setup with podman.

Just be aware that installing stuff without a flatpak or appimage available can be somewhat of a pain.

Laparoscopic Appendectomy. Or as the doctors like to call it, a Lappy-Appy.

It’s an amazing tool.

For your comics list, I’d suggest Dataview, quickadd, and templater plugins. With those three you could easily make a database with an entry mask, that automatically sorts the files into folders and sets metadata based on the mask input, and dynamically creates various tables for reference.

Folder notes could be useful too, depending how you want to set it up, and how detailed you want to have your tables.

Whatever you decide on, good luck. :)

This program rocks for any sort of organization.

Markdown files in folders, with all sorts of plugins for tweaking it to your use case.

But beware, Obsidian is full of rabbit holes. Don’t get distracted by shiny plugins that you don’t actually need.

I was trying so hard to get GTP4ALL to work inside of obsidian because it has this localdocs feature, where you can feed it documents and it integrates them into itself. I want the model to be aware of the whole vault, and also generate notes based on the vault contents, constantly updating.

It looks like podman desktop + chatGPG obsidian plugin is the way to go through, I’m playing around with it and it looks promising.

Thanks! I’ll try it out.

Thank you for the info!

Warm salt water. That makes sure that the water is not pulling salt out of your cells. Doing it without salt is painful and dangerous. Also the salt should be without iodine added.

I don’t have any irritation, but I’m a big robust guy, so perhaps milage may vary.

And sure, I would assume that the sinuses are self-cleaning to an extent, but they are also designed to be a filter to keep junk out of our lungs. The way I see it, I’m just cleaning the filter out before I go to bed.

Neti Pots. I clean our my sinuses every night before bed, and I rarely get sick. Of course it’s not a miracle cure, but it’s great at preventing a viral infection before it starts.

Haha, I wouldn’t expect anything less. But I don’t need to install the plugin…well…maybe I’ll just try it out for a few…danmit.
