When simulation becomes the norm, the human capacity for discernment atrophies and our social bonds become enclosed in self-referential circuits that cease to show us reality. We then live as if inside impermeable bubbles with one another, we feel threatened by anyone who is different, and we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. This is how polarization, conflicts, fears, and violence spread. What is at stake is not a mere risk of error, but a transformation of the very relationship with truth itself.

The extra benefits are minimal. Maybe in some edge cases like low VRAM gaming it could be useful. Where Cachy shines in the fact that it's literally just Arch (SteamOS also uses it) with an installer. And Arch is great, the latest updates (important for vidya), AUR, great wiki

Stick to major distros and avoid derivatives like Bazzite, Nobara and CachyOS. This is especially true if it's your first time trying out Linux. Derivative distros, especially the gaming focused ones, sometimes do retarded shit that compromise the system stability to gain 0.5 fps in games.

A while back i bought this dell. Recently i tried to install steamos on it. It seems to install fine, but ones it restarts i get an error saying 'the watchdog did not stop'. Every time i start it up it says this and the system just hangs.

Any of you linux chads know how to fix this?

>>737132752
That message usually appears at shutdown, and is harmless. But what happens if you add nowatchdog to your boot flags? (pressing e at kernel selection usually, temporary)
>>
>>737132294
Mainline distros have their own problems. Mostly defaults, like pushing snaps, or lacking codecs/drivers like Fedora. Since the problems are just bad defaults, it's easy to work past them if you know what to do but it's needless trouble for a newbie who just wants stuff to work out of the box.
Cachy is popular because it werks

I think the pros outweigh the cons. The truth is it'll probably work.

Then you get the odd unlucky user that just has everything break constantly and they never fuck with Linux again cause it just fucking sucked.

>>737131120
I personally didn't like Bazzite. I get what they're going for but it's too limiting for me.
I tried cachy and it's way better, but since I love to tinker, I went full Arch and customized the whole thing.
But whatever anyone tells you about your choice of Distro remember this, they're wrong. Whatever one you like is the correct distro.
Hope it all goes smoothly for you, OP.

No, they are linux users, it's always been like this.
It's like console wars, people are only usually going to recommend the one they have and shit on the rest.
The fact of the matter is they are all basically the same with small differences. Almost all of modern linux is based on either Debian, Arch or Fedora.
Debian is stability but it's always old. Arch is always new but it's easy to break, and Fedora is a middle-ground between the 2.
>>737135441
That will be true after the steam machines come out, but currently the other guy is right, it's specifically built for steamdeck and is missing a lot of components for other hardware.
>>737134537
Cachy is really good, it's Arch but you don't need to be autistic to install it.
>>
>>737132752
how many times do people need to say steamos is not supported on desktop pcs, don't install it.
>>
>>737137182
It's not, it's just linux spergs being autistic as per our usual arrangement.
Certain distros will have some subtleties that an experienced user may appreciate but that will be completely irrelevant to a new (or even an experienced but casual) Linux user.
I've been using Bazzite for 9 months and have loved it, but I have ran up against limitations due to the way that Bazzite and other Fedora-based distros work specifically that wouldn't be issues in, say, a Debian-based distro. But it's like 1% of my use cases and I have workarounds, and everything else just works.

Advice for the future - don't waste your time with this shit, or other distros claiming to do everything "out of the box". You'll find one way or another that either Mint or, if you're more into Linux, Arch is the way to built the stablest system possible that doesn't have a thousand dependencies already installed into it and you end up smashing your head at every problem.

Arch based, like Endeavour in that it has EZ installers for those of you in the hurry, but with some gaming-and-Zen4-or-newer-hardware optimizations in the kernel added. Good if you have recent and reasonably popular hardware and want a gaming friendly scheduler and frequent upgrades.

If you don't want to go something Arch based, then at very least

because its easier to teach people they need to think about what they're copypasta-ing and how stuff works in Linux , rather than trying to get them to fuck around trying to get an immutable distro to "just this once" update something custom and then not fuck up anything else, whenever this is necessary.

There are immutable Arch distros too, but when it comes to vidya which sometimes needs some custom fix or other bit of software long before its merged into a major update, its better to just use standard ones. Its also a reason why rolling release distros like Arch became the common base for SteamOS as opposed to Deb/Ubuntu because it meant that if you needed to get some new thing but you had to use custom repos and other shit if it isn't going to be merged before the freeze for Wandering Woodchuk or whatever the next iteration will be.

I don't completely disagree with you but the problem is that most people are retarded and even if you make something retard proof they'll still find a way to break everything and then either complain that the thing is bad or bother other people and waste their time fixing it.
Especially kids nowadays who grew up on phones and tablets they don't know how to fucking use computers.
>>737143206
I think SteamOS being immutable is the correct way to do it, if something doesn't work it doesn't work and users will just have to put up with it until Valve updates and makes it work. Also while Arch is the base for the system SteamRT uses Debian under the hood because it's easier for developers to aim for a common version of packages rather than 10000000 different Arch installs with different versions of packages that have different edge cases and break for different reasons.

SteamOS doing it makes sense as immutable as its not meant to be an OS you game on AND Valve is worth putting a massive amount of effort into fixing when shit comes up. Its not like some random distro where some tard is going to say
>Ackscuseme but what is the use case for being able to play a game from the early 2000s at greater than 60hz portrait aligned monitors while VRR is activated?
Compare this to a user installing a distro for their own wider, more general OS usage and not being governed by someone like Steam to update it for a particular usage.

As far as SteamRT and others things will modernize between the old SteamOS and new one. After all, you can optimize for a standard arch install compatibility and group of packages to support - something Valve's really good at standardizing in general.

Not only that they pushed snap but even when you wanted to use flatpak they would still use the snap if it existed instead. Scummy. If I tell my computer to do something, it should do as I say, not what someone else thinks is best for me.
>>
>>737144606
There's nothing wrong with snaps, but for some reason the people who build and distribute them always fuck them up which has given them a bad name.
Snaps are better than flatpaks tbfh
Missing a permission? Snaps will tell you.
Want to launch from terminal? Just type the name of the command (no flatpak run io.spergo.bigapp.mongy)

the work fedora did on silverblue and kinoite is understated. i put the latter on my mom's laptop and enabled autoupdates but she never left it on long enough for it to actually happen so she was 3 major versions behind. i just grabbed it, rebased it twice (it's not recommended to jump too far ahead), and it was up to date with no issues whatsoever within 20 minutes.

Its use of a different package manager and all kinds of weird stubborn autistic "customization" was their undoing.
Not to mention 99% of their userbase having no fucking clue what they were doing due to being completely divorced from Arch and being "arch but easy but also our devs intentionally made everything fucked up" leading to cachy and endeavor being the better options as you actually could use archwiki and archforum solutions

Sorry to say but there's no purity when it comes to Linux (except for some niche distros) and wasn't intended to be this way, the whole ecosystem depends on corporations helping in keeping things running and common users benefit from it. For example, Linux gaming became a serious reality because Valve invested on it.
There's the concern as Fedora is Red Hat's testing ground and that they may do funny stuff in the future.
If you want to be schizo about it, there's no purity in most Linux projects as a bunch were outward about adopting age verification for example.

CachyOS is by far the best distro for gaming, specially if you're a new user. It doesn't have any completely asinine eccentricities like being atomic or implementing SELinux which are gonna fuck with new users who try to do anything even slightly outside of the norm.

The only downside is that you need to install it correctly so that you have snapshots available and it's Arch based so there may be manual intervention required with updates sometimes. On the bright side you'll get more comfortable with how Arch works and that is a distro that can serve the needs of almost any kind of power user.

This is also a downside, not because of schizo reasons, but because it means they respect dumb stuff like patents and licensing.

Linux doesn't need to overtake Windows. It just needs to survive with a decent and healthy userbase.
Everyone working in one distro doesn't work for a magnitude of reasons: use case, passion, goals, development structure, resources and so on. There doesn't need to be a be all end all distribution, if you want that stick to Microslop. For Linux find what suits you the best, and that freedom of choice is what makes it good. There can sometimes be too many options, yes, but that's better than the monolithic alternative.

You're thinking about distros incorrectly. They are all basically the same. The differences is what comes pre-packaged. Cachy is still Arch. Bazzite is still Fedora. Mint is still Debian. You can turn any of those parents into the child distro by simply installing the packages and configs.
>>

>Linux will never overtake windows
So? as long as I and my friends can have a decent alternative to the fucking cancer that is microslop I dont care how popular it is. Obviously the more popular something is, the more support it will get, but linux has been gaining steady momentum in the gaming space for a while now because of the push from Valve. Even if it never goes above 25% market share thats still fucking MASSIVE.

It's not that ridiculous, there is an over saturation of games so "some games don't work" is a very small sacrifice to make for the average gamer who isn't literally 12 years old. Windows is really miserable to use too, I don't even use it full time (use it on laptop and at work) and every time I do it just feels awful.

It's the non-gamers that would have a hard time migrating, since they have all kinds of Windows workflows that don't work on Linux.

What are "those things"? Proton is back end software intended to run Windows software on Linux using Steam. Steam uses it in a very specific way too, it has what are called "pressure vessels" which are basically a complete Linux system also known as SteamRT. Steam launches SteamRT and then inside that it runs whatever Windows software in Proton.
The stuff that Steam does like starting up a pressure vessel, creating directories for the game, downloading latest SteamRT, etc has to be mimicked by something in order to use Proton. Proton is not software meant for doing any of that.

I watched a video about a guy who tested bazzite for like a month and from day one he couldn't even get his speakers to work but they worked fine before and after in windows. In fact he tried two different distros or whatever they're called and neither would recognise his speakers. Its dumb shit like that why linux will never take off. MS is going full steam ahead with windows optimizations and refinements now after the AI bubble fizzled away and once the xbox full screen experience and alternatives come along there's zero reason to use linux when it's been proven that even in beta the xbox full screen mode reduces system resource usage as much or more than a light weight linux os without having the downsides of not being able to use nvidia graphics properly or games flat out not working because of incompatible anti cheat.

Pretty much.

>>737154484
Even windows in its current form is infinitely better than literal trash that doesn't work properly with 90% of the gaming pc userbase who use nvidia or can't run some popular games at all because of lack of anti cheat supoort. Among other things. It doesn't even work properly for casual gamers so why would a serious gamer take it seriously? I didnt need a video to confirm linux is hot garbage.

It's not Linux that isn't working here you fucking idiot
They're not going to allow a security violation so you can play soul crushing mmr grind slop or guess their way to Nvidia's proprietary shit

>>737154385
Nothing to do with speakers, unless the speakers are the actual sound output (USB speakers) and require specialized drivers (not likely). Some sound output hardware integrated into motherboards, specially the latest special snowflake minimum viable product types which merge audio jacks to save a few pennies have poor support specially when they are brand new. Back when I first installed Linux on my brand new computer, my audio was completely fucked from the motherboard output too. It works now, but I don't use since I have a quality DAC connected to the spdif port instead. Fiberoptic output worked right from the start.

Just installed cachy on my sons PC. Set up Sober for his goyblox and installed steam.

>>737155578
Maybe I would if it wasn't so shit and supported my nvidia graphics card and all its features and could play popular games like battlefield 6. But it doesnt so it's worthless garbage, just like you in the eyes of your family.

>>737155314
It doesn't just work, you still need the driver. Only difference is that drivers arrive later on Linux.
It's hardly a mess either, because drivers are part of the kernel in Linux so you as a user really don't need to give a fuck. If the driver exists in the kernel, everything works effortlessly. If it doesn't, you wait until it does.

>>
>>737155553
Its not that bad its not "Linux that sucks" its that "companies haven't given a license to Linux due to proprietary deals with Microcuck and Applesluts to not produce for third party software" all they need is for them to program a driver that makes them work with a Linux based OS. plenty of good software runs on Linux already and is often developed for both Windows and Linux at the same time. Say what prod. software are you saying is missing from Linux? Adobe?

More like I abandoned amd once they announced FSR4 won't come to the 6000 series graphics cards. But radeon cares about their users according to you simply because they have better Linux support. This isn't even 4d logic anymore. You're probably some kind of fucked up masochist

>>737156620
If Nvidia cared they'd be in mesa but they're not
Look up what that is since you get your opinions from youtubers so you don't know what I'm talking about

because they are known to mess up entire distros if you mess with them manually, even if it doesnt break right away months down the like, something, somehow will fuck up because of that, other than that, yeah it should work fine as long as you jsut let them update on their own

>>737157119
Why are you so butthurt that you resorted to claiming only companies who care about their users work well on linux only to start screeching when provided factual evidence of that not being true. Having linux support doesnt make radeon a good company but you're basically forced to use them if you want to have a competent experience on linux.

Just dropping in to say Bazzite has been surprisingly robust for me. Gaming is smooth. Hentai games have been working through Lutris. I haven't had a hard time getting my printer/scanner working.

>>737158668
you can do whatever you want with your time, but you can't blame the GPU if you haven't tried to diagnose the problem

there are many other hardware and software components in the pipeline that also could have been to blame, such as, for example, an outdated nvidia driver
>>
>>737158105
That was 12
>>737157715
unironically if anything breaks just put your problem into an LLM and it will give you a single line command that fixes it.
For all the faults of AI, linux autists have meticulously documented literally everything and LLMs can parse that really well.

If the whole point of Linux is that you can have operating systems that are customized to taste and you can shop around to find the one distro do you like, exactly how hard is it to transfer all your shit from like Ubuntu to Mint to Bazzite to whatever as you look around
Or do you install a bunch of fresh Linux distros one at a time on a laptop or something and decide on one for your main compy after trying them all out
>>

All user data is in the same folder regardless of distro, so trivial in theory. Gets annoying in practice though, unless you have a lot of data and it's important for you. Manual partition setup during installation is just kinda annoying.

What is behind this claim that CachyOS requires more knowledge of Linux and more maintenance? What exactly do you have to do in CachyOS that is not required if you run Bazzite?

>>737163054
Purely because it's arch based and rolling releases. Basically you are responsible for merging configuration changes, managing manual package rebuilds from the AUR, and monitoring for breaking updates. Bazzite is atomic and immutable, meaning it provides a pre-tested, read-only system image that eliminates manual maintenance and allows you to simply roll back to a previous deploy if an update fails.
In practice as long as you aren't a complete retard, and aren't scared of the terminal, Cachy/Arch is perfectly fine.
