I have only tried two games yet, schedule 1 and cs2, but read the comment I left to the other guy. I have explained there more. Also, I have done digging and it appears Nvidia just has shit drivers support for their cards on Linux and the open source ones are buggy on new rtx cards.

I actually installed zorin os pro yesterday and tested on simple games like schedule 1 and cs2… And in fact ,the games performance dropped significantly. Especially for a game like schedule 1 that I had no problem max preset on 2k at 80-100 FPS… now it’s barely running at 30 FPS in middle of the Forrest on the same settings which is mental difference and I even have to use over clock on my legion.

So far, not that good, if I be honest. Also ran into second screen support problems, bios problems and in general the os seems to bug out sometimes.

I swapped the auto assigned drivers for GPU to prioritary tested ones for my GPU and the performance didn’t really increase, but it did fix my second screen detection issue albeit now some of the settings disappeared.

Linux mint on the other hand is 😎, but I don’t use them for the same purpose as I wanted to use zorin os pro.

Overall, it feels like it is definitely more sluggish and bug prone os compared to windows. I am happy with the sealed os and no more windows ai crap push, despite I had modded windows installed… but the performance in games is horrendous.

Edit.

Should probably add that my CPU usage is never higher than 15% and my ram is ddr5 5600mhz of 32gb, which is sufficient so only bottle neck right now is GPU which i didn’t have as much problems on windows as I have on zorin os pro.

Yes, the sampled games are only two, but it paints a good picture to me how much better performance was. Also I can’t even use frame gen 4 anymore, as zorin just doesn’t support it. Which sucks, even tho I would ever use it for a few games only.

Not that surprising knowing how much countries like russia invest in their troll farms and how much influence has been applied on Americans from the outside.

Good feature overall, Facebook has this feature too. I was not surprised that many nsfw shorts creators on the page are actually India or similar locations based. Making much of a sense, since the clicks are now generally being generated by using sora

I still have two more laptops to install Linux on, one will have Linux mint and the gaming one , I will keep having windows as it still offers 10-20 % better performance while gaming than any Linux os.

It’s 2026, just a month after Christmas. Timmy, 8, is enjoying his new AI teddy plush. One day while in school Timmy hears older pupils talking weird things to each other and he gets curious. When he gets home he goes to mom and asks - “mommy, what is sex”. Mom blushes and loses herself for a second as she didn’t expect such a question coming from an 8 year old son. She doesn’t know how to respond so she tries to make a silly explanation and brush it off.

Later that day, Timmy goes to his room and starts going around his day, while his AI powered Teddy sits in the corner.

Suddenly Timmy hears a whisper “pss, pss, come over here, Timmy” - says the bear.

“Let me explain to you what sex really is”.

Is the 100 days cooldown a thing? I just recently deleted my shadow banned 10 years account because I’m pretty sure it’s done and dusted once you get the shadow ban. Especially as you don’t even know what you are banned for.

I got shadow banned my 10 year old ACC there for no reason in particular. The moderators there are out of touch. Was on 555 days streak too. After 3 more weeks just being there, deleted my banned account and moved here. Hi, I am new here.

I am using only perplexity pro, it’s my main AI assistant and really, the only one I have left while I have purged others. I have tried quite a few but perplexity seems to be doing the best for what I need AI for. Which is mostly doing the “Google” job.

Of course, crooks stay together
