  • recently dealt with an issue at my parents house where whenever they connected the TV to the wifi, half the devices in the house would lose connection. turns out there was an instability in the Comcast router firmware and whenever the TV would connect it would crash everything else on the 2.4ghz frequency.

    solution was to replace the router with one they owned instead of whatever crap they were leasing from Comcast.
















  • I use bazzite. I prefer fedora (that’s what I have on my laptop) but the Nvidia drivers consistently give me trouble with fedora on my desktop. I’d get it stable for a little bit then something broke. eventually I got tired of it and tried bazzite since I had heard it was better in that regard. I love the out of the box Nvidia support as well as the HDR support with no extra steps. I’m really not a fan of immutable distros in general, I think rebuilding the ostree everytime I need to install a system package not available in any other way is super annoying, but it just works and that enough for me right now. I also enjoy some of the software it comes packaged with, like btrfs snapper and a very comprehensive ffmpeg build. I’ll probably switch away from it to try something new this summer, but at least until my finals are over I just need it’s stability.
