  • Sorry we don’t review AI Slop.

    then closes the ticket. classic. I’m a fan of Flathub more so than ever.

    Oh surprise surprise the guy is from Mississauga and has his fingers in everything that is totally unrelated to each other in order to some how, some way, make a buck. Doesn’t surprise me. seems like every “tech person” from Mississauga is also a consultant for some medical crap and yup…that’s what it says on his site.




  • I’m actually trying PikaOS for a week, I installed it lastnight. If you want something like Mint, easy to install as Mint, but focused on gaming then it’s a decent distro. It actually works very well with my specific asus laptop that has an AMD iGPU and Nvidia descrete GPU. It’s also improved my battery life over NixOS (which I think is just poor config on my part).

    all that being said I’m not sure if I’ll stick with it. However it does seem to be the best distro i’ve used on this laptop, just works really well with it for whatever reason.


  • you’re not going to notice anything that’s going to knock your socks off but you might notice like slightly less stutter for fps drop for some things. It does depend on the game though.

    I use NixOS with the CachyOS Kernel because I play EVE Online. It’s a game that pretty much requires you have multiple clients/accounts going at the same time. For me with the CachyOS kernel if I have 3+ clients open I notice a lot less fps stuttering/lag over say the standard Linux Kernel or even Zen.

    At the end of the day, honestly, any distro can pretty much be made into a gaming distro. Stuff like Bazzite, CachyOS, PikaOS are just going to make it “easier” for you because they have stuff installed and configured for gaming in mind by default. easier setup. But unless you’re constantly monitoring benchmarks/your FPS then performance increases, if any, aren’t going to be groundbreaking.
