I have a reoccurring problem in Linux, happening in both Nobara 39 and 40 as well as Fedora 40. I understand that Nobara is Fedora based.

Sometimes my USB headset just does not detect, at all. Plug it in, no notification sound that it has been plugged in and does not appear as an audio device.

I have tried 3 different headsets and none detect. I have to reboot to solve the issue.

A friend of mine is also running Nobara and also comes across the same issue from time to time. It happened again for me today.

While I like Linux, I would love to stop using Windows and make Linux my main OS… I just cannot. Loads of my games and apps do not work in Linux as well as a lot of hardware control software. It took me ages just to get some software to control my GPU fans and I am unable to control my PC fans. From what I understand my motherboard has no Linux support, I cannot see a single sensor in any software I try. I eventually manually set up fan curves in BIOS.

I definitely does not just work for sure.

Adding my Manjaro experience, not good.

I tried it 3 times, fresh installs but it locks up my PC. If my screens turn off after a set amount of time I cannot wake up my PC. I turned off any sleep/standby/hibernate modes, only the screens turn off. If I head out for lunch and come back, the only way to get back in is to hard reboot.

I’m not entering, just seeing what’s going on.

I would love to have a rainbow unicorn bank card instead of this boring old dark green one of mine.

My downstairs neighbour is super right wing, told me he is as far right as you can go, full on conservative voter in the UK.

The other day he told me Trump is the only one that is going to be able to save the world and under his rule, the Russia Ukraine war would have never happened.

Told him Trump is in bed with Russia and would have just allowed them to take over, he said no and Trump siding with Russia would benefit the entire world’s economy.

Straight face said this to me, man has brain-rot.

I thought it was just me, I thought something wrong was going on in my Windows installation.

EA app is also dead in the water for me, my library is not loading. It knows I have 4 games installed but all the names and icons are blank.

Can’t even launch the games directly from their own exe.

I remember reading somewhere that they are not making money on their store, losing it.

Wondering if a timed exclusive brings in more cash compared to their normal sales, even if it’s still a loss.

The free games can’t be helping out either.

Most of my gaming friends refuse to buy games from Epic or use their launcher.

They’d rather wait for the timed exclusive to expire and buy the game on their platform of choice.

I’ve bought maybe 2 games on Epic because a friend wanted to play it with me at launch. It was Borderlands 3.

But never again, I finished BL3 solo seeing as my friend played with me about 3 times and he never touched it again.

I do collect their free game every week, my Epic library is quite big now and I may play a game from there time to time but I hate the idea of a platform exclusive.

I’d like to know if they are making more money with timed exclusives seeing as nearly nobody I game with wants to buy from them.

I come from a country with school uniforms and I hated it.

Felt more like a way to control us and/or it was all about the schoool’s image.

Our hair had to follow certain rules, short, no colour, no gel.

Are these open or closed backed headphones?

The closed backed ones can create a lot of pressure and hurt your ears and possibly give you a headache.

My current headphones are open backed and way more comfortable compared to my last which were closed backed.

You can hear outside sounds easier with the open backed ones though, but for me that is worth it.
