All of them.
Biggest difference a distro does is their update cycle and how much the distro “takes care” of you. Some of them do everything behind the scenes to make it just work. Others need more user interaction to reach the same state (but tend to teach you the inner workings too, which will open up a LOT of customization)

Since that’ll take a while here’s a copy & paste from Firefox reader mode:

Intel has finally updated us on its search for the cause of game crashes on Intel CPUs, including the Core i9 14900K. According to the chip maker, a bunch of motherboard BIOS updates will be coming soon to fix one contributing factor, but the company says it’s still yet to identify the “root cause” of the game crashes on Intel CPUs.
The extreme multi-threaded power and high clock speed of the Core i9 14900K makes it one of the company’s best gaming CPU options right now, but there have been many reports of game crashes on Intel CPUs in games based on the Unreal engine recently. This latest announcement from Intel isn’t timely either, as the company originally promised to make a statement about the situation in May 2024.
Let’s start with what Intel does now know, which is that there is indeed a bug in its Enhanced Thermal Velocity Boost (eTVB) algorithm. The statement, posted by Intel communications manager Thomas Hannaford, says that Intel has already developed a patch to fix the eTVB problem, and that it’s currently talking with motherboard makers with a view to getting BIOS (firmware) updates out before 19 July, 2024.
Intel also says that the default settings for LGA1700 motherboards should stick to a limited set of parameters when it comes to power limits and thermal regulation so that CPUs aren’t overheating. Motherboard makers have already been issuing BIOS updates to conform to Intel’s default baseline settings, but Intel has also specified the following settings for several CPUs, from the Core i5 13600K to the Core i9 14900KS.
However, bear in mind that these settings are conservative compared to the loose default power settings applied to these motherboards when they were first released, and they’re highly likely to result in a drop in performance as a result.
These are the recommended Intel default motherboard settings for stability:
Parameter | Value |
CEP (current excursion protection) | Enable |
eTVB (Enhanced Thermal Velocity Boost) | Enable |
TVB (Thermal Velocity Boost) | Enable |
TVB voltage optimizations | Enable |
ICCMAX unlimited bit | Disable |
TjMAX offset | 0 |
C-states (including C1E) | Enable |
Parameter | Baseline | Performance |
ICCMAX | 175A | 200A |
ICCMAC_App | 150A | 170A |
Power limit 1 (PL1) | 125W | 181W |
Power limit 2 (PL2) | 143W | 181W |
Parameter | Baseline | Performance |
ICCMAX | 249A | 307A |
ICCMAC_App | 200A | 245A |
Power limit 1 (PL1) | 125W | 253W |
Power limit 2 (PL2) | 188W | 253W |
Parameter | Baseline | Performance | Extreme |
ICCMAX | 249A | 307A | 400A |
ICCMAC_App | 200A | 245A | 320A |
Power limit 1 (PL1) | 125W | 253W | 253W |
Power limit 2 (PL2) | 188W | 253W | 253W |
Parameter | Performance | Extreme |
ICCMAX | 307A | 400A |
ICCMAC_App | 245A | 320A |
Power limit 1 (PL1) | 253W | 320W |
Power limit 2 (PL2) | 253W | 320W |
Disappointingly, though, as we recently reported, Intel still doesn’t know the root cause of the stability problems gamers are encountering, and specifically states that “while this eTVB bug is potentially contributing to instability, it is not the root cause of the instability issue.”
Intel also hasn’t provided a timescale for resolving the problem, simply saying that it will “continue working towards a conclusion to the investigation.” The company admitted that this “investigation is not an easy one to conduct and we’re grateful for both the support of our partners in conducting the analysis as well as the patience of the Intel community.”
Intel is expected to release its new Arrow Lake desktop CPUs before the end of this year, but in the meantime, its 14th-generation Raptor Lake CPUs are its best options for gaming. If you’re thinking of buying a new gaming CPU right now, we recommend picking up the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D instead, as it’s faster than the 14900K in most of our game tests, and it’s much cheaper too.
In theory, yes. You’d need to know some python scripting though and interact with Hydrus via it’s API
if any FOSS devs want to make an app for categorizing and tagging memes outside the camera roll
Well there’s Hydrus for that, needs to run on Windows/Linux/macOS though, having Hydrus Web as secondary desktop & primary mobile app.
Running it standalone from your phone is probably a bother, since you’d need to run it in X11 from Termux, but it’s doable
The game’s story is not exactly full of twists and turns.
Tell me you don’t know shit about ER’s lore without saying you don’t know shit about ER’s lore
And that kids, is how I got banned from the local park
Switching from Miui to Evolution X my battery life nearly doubled
After switching to MicroG my battery life increased by roughly 40%
I hate this new normal where everything is infested with spyware by default
By running everthing in a single thread obviously. Won’t get more powerful than that
A private local LLM
Running on a phone? No way, not without being absolutely horrible, slow or making your phone churn through your battery anyway.
Good LLMs are olready slow on a GTX 1080, which is already miles faster than any phone out there
Dunno why people downvote you. Morality in fiction is mostly black and white. In reality it’s mostly different shades of gray
I only feel like this when using libraries without type definitions/using bogus types like dict[str, Any] as EVERY fucking variable/return type without providing any docs
Sadge, I already know all of these
Thanks for creating it though, love the awesome something lists
You made a Typo in duperemove btw ;)
Well yeah, but they should atleast store the key outside of userspace
They store it unencrypted in 2024? This should be illegal. Now every fucking Program you run can basically know everything you ever did since every shit is spyware nowadays to get that sweet data collection going
It’s a SHITpost, you’re not supposed to taste them…
I currently mostly listen to german rap music.
Only to a handful of artists though because most are fake idiots whose texts don’t have meaning in them. It’s always the same and everyone just produces whatever they think will sell best, zero own personality in their songs
Doing this also opens Firefox in Voyager here on A14. Going back via Androids navigation gestures works as expected (not sure if this is what you meant)
I am curious though, why would you share a post to Firefox when there’s a dedicated button to open a posts link in your default browser?
