Ooh I understand that it’s for AI, I just meant that more RAM would certainly help in this case.

If this is enabled by default it’ll certainly be needed, especially in cases like multitasking.

Bazzite has been amazing for me!

Ooh good ol’ Theo. The guy is quite something…

LACT isn’t a bad stand-in for some of adrenaline’s features, but it obviously doesn’t cover everything.

Hmm that’s not a bad idea. I am running an older setup so I’ll have to see how that fairs while I do normal tasks.

Thanks! It feels good to be back.

Aah okay that makes sense. I wouldn’t mind the extra space.

If that’s turned off, do you know if the game generates and caches shaders as you play? If so, does that also apply to games run outside of Steam?

Currently I’m just playing games like Hunt Showdown and Helldivers.

Yeah I saw that when I was previously running into this, but wasn’t sure if it would leave performance on the table. Also, I’m curious if you could run it once, turn it off so you don’t process them again, and if that would be beneficial for subsequent runs of the game even after updates (assuming not since they’d probably be invalidated).

Performance wise it was better for almost every game I played! I’m more used to Linux because that’s what I use at work, but I don’t have the greatest Internet connection, so that’s why the shader caches suck.

A few months ago.

I’ve tried Linux gaming for a good bit but it doesn’t seem like it’s quite there yet. For the games that worked it was amazing! The only other thing that was annoying was the constant downloading for the shader caches basically every day with steam (yes I know they can be disabled). I was using Bazzite for those wondering.

CDK or bust

Literally me. I deadlift 700 with hook grip, 500 double-overhand, and I still struggle. I just smack the lid on the edge of the counter a bit to help.

You can still easily block ads on the desktop (and Android) app.

Looks like it doesn’t?

Tell them about Arch Linux.

Just switched from Windows 10 to Nobara this morning!

It’s a constant cat and mouse game with Google. You can use Magisk with Zygisk enabled, Shamiko, and Play Integrity Fix (there’s also a few other combos that work) to get baking apps to work. I have no issues on my rooted Pixel 8 Pro, but it’s always a gamble if Google updates their end and then you get locked out of Google Wallet for a day once you update your fixes (not banking apps).

Where’s the bottle of lotion with a sock and/or tissues?
