Sounds like you'd updated your system GPU drivers but not your flatpak ones. It's an oddity and I'm not sure what the fix is apart from knowing you always need to update flatpak when you pull in a driver update.

So happy for Hulk!

Not "necessarily connected" is far from "nothing to do with each other". You need to stop shifting the goal posts and take the L.

I'm not a doctor but I do have adhd, depression and anxiety. A quick Google confirms they are in fact linked, so I'm not sure what you mean by "have nothing to do with each other".

It's an Israeli company, that's a no from me boss.

That’s it. That’s the only reason.

Manufacturing labour costs are far cheaper outside of China but the skills aren't available. While labour costs are always a factor, the US just doesn't have enough skilled manufacturing engineers or the supply chain you get somewhere like Shenzen.

Game prices haven't followed inflation because the market kept growing so fast that they made it up on gross revenue. That's coming to an end (hence the post-lockdown market contraction and layoffs), so expect prices to go up by at least $10 every generation from now on.

And in fairness, the fifth attempt was on an intel platform.

Its not year on year, all datapoints are the rate against 2015's rate.

Those silly cunts don't know where I'm from. I'd question the accuracy of it even for online-only discourse.

I'm running HDR on Fedora 42 with Gnome. Unless you watch HDR video content or play HDR games I would say it's not worth worrying about.

 

I've been running stock Fedora for about 5 years, but I'm really interested in immutable distros after putting Bazzite on my TV Gaming PC. Batteries-included works well for me in a use case like that.

I have about a decade of experience with containerisation, so leveraging that experience for my desktop is really appealing.

I took a look at Bluefin for my laptop, but it seems to be more opinionated than I'd like. I'm good with having an optimised kernel and tooling that makes sense for an immutable distro, but wasn't a huge fan of preconfigured Gnome extensions and the software I don't want.

I haven't tried Silverblue yet, but I plan to do that next. Vanilla OS is on my list too, but more out of curiosity in how it does things.

My questions are: should I be looking at any other distros? Do I need to shift my expectations of an immutable distro even more?
