Haha, appreciate the assist my man!

Jesus Christ - I’ve filtered for all Elon and Trump news and this manages to skip the filter.

I’m on fedora 41 and gaming is almost perfect on it, the final hurdles are some VRR refinements and HDR. These are supposedly coming in f42 so I’d rather not wait god knows how long on Debian for these features to show up. However once the features arrive and I run into issues with F42, I’ll consider Deb.

Just use dash to dock extension. But I agree the system tray not being there by default is a puzzling experience.

Look when full path tracing becomes playable easily on a 60 series mainstream level card, I’d be all for devs spending their time on it. Until then what’s the point? I have a 4080 and not a single path tracing game runs in playable framerate/resolution

Yeah I’m still familiarising myself with Linux at the moment, the choices are endless! I’m using the os for gaming and productivity. So essentially setting up Plex and Emulator plus Steam based gaming. Lutris has been amazing.

I’ve now tried Mint and Nobara KDE and Gnome variants. With Gnome 47, the scaling issue is fixed so it’s the nicest looking and with Nobara Gnome I’m getting solid performance too. Just one final thing I need to - HDR!

Thank you so much!

Jokes aside - I was planning to do a Linux build, does that mean I should skip Ubuntu and go Mint? I’m going to be using the build for media and gaming (emulation)

Edit: I would like to thank you all for the responses, just goes to show how lovely the Linux community is! Will be trying Mint :)

Back in the day the motorazr was a 1:1 for the analogy haha

Also have you seen how narrow and tall it is? Feels like an extended switchblade >.<

Ok never-mind I guess everyone is just a sexist misogynistic pig.

You are trying to say that male characters are just as boring as female characters yet people are madder at the female superheroes right? Then you’ve used Thor as an example, specifically of the pathetic POS he was in Love and Thunder.

Thor was successful because of the sheer charisma of Chris Hemsworth and the novelty of seeing Thor on the big screen. While after his first appearance in the original Thor film, his own movies have been of questionable quality, he’s always been an entertaining addition to the crossover movies (I’m putting Ragnarok in there too).

Brie Larson does not have the same amount of charisma (with all due respect to the actress who’s done other great stuff) to make Captain Marvel work as the next flagship Avenger. Plus at this point, the novelty of superheroes is thing of the past. Expecting her to lead the next generation of Avengers with both B/C list superheroes along with uninteresting writing is Marvel/Disney doing a great disservice to the actress.

We could have had great Thor sequels and we could have a great Captain Marvel who led the next generation of Avengers. Now we have neither, in my humble opinion this is why people are madder at Captain Marvel (as misdirected as this hate may be).

I will back this recommendation - it felt like I finally began to understand the trans struggle with this well made movie. Plays like a fever dream and hits like a truck.

I used to think he was Stanley until I saw a credit scene in the early marvel movies 😂

Ah gotcha, yeah I’m with you 👍

I will respectfully disagree, I think Nolan’s Batman series was both a good comic book adaption and a great movie series that could stand on its own. Early Marvel has some really exciting storylines and characters too. My personal fav is Captain America and the Winter Soldier. I think the Marvel Netflix shows also had really strong writing and great male and female leads. I loved Daredevil, Punisher and Jessica Jones (and even Luce Cage to some extent thanks to Mike Colters portrayal). In my ideal scenario - I’d like to see epic writing that matches or surpasses this era to emerge. Whether this features an all female cast or all male, or a mix of everything in between is inconsequential to me.

Apart from Mark Ruffalo’s version of The Hulk, you’ll find that most comic fans do take the piss out of the previous Hulk movies.

They’ve (Disney/Marvel) found new audience and the old audience can be serviced elsewhere. Everyone wins 👌

I think the magic is gone - now the shows and movie lack the flair and excitement of the previous era. Now it feels like the we don’t need x, we have x at home meme.
