Do you know what's even better? Fedora Kinoite. Or Bazzite. Or Nobara…

You're not alone in this, those kinds of things are hilarious, but also alarming, lol

I think nobody thinks about NSFL as some form of physical damage, but as something that could get you traumatized.

I think you can try your luck with either Nobara or Bazzite, they are very user-friendly. I find Nobara more user-friendly, but Bazzite is an immutable distro, so it is naturally more stable, more secure, etc.

I use Nobara KDE, and the idle RAM consumption is of around 1 GB.

At least on my end, changing Bottles' permission settings using Flatseal or KDE Plasma's integrated Flatpak settings to make it have access to all users' files makes it work correctly.

Remember to always use the Flatpak version of Bottles, because the native versions are usually very outdated and broken (the RPM version, for example, is totally broken and in a version from mid to late 2022).

Dude, Lubuntu is not made for gaming. For gaming, you would want either KDE (preferred over GNOME due to, among others, VRR/FreeSync/G-Sync, HDR and tearing support) or GNOME.

Regarding the distro:

Fedora and openSUSE Tumbleweed are great options if you don't usually play for hours, as they are more aimed at general use.

Nobara and Bazzite (both Fedora-based) are the best of the best, for ease of use, performance, etc., with the biggest difference between both being that Nobara is mutable, while Bazzite is immutable.

If you want an Arch-based gaming distro, there is CachyOS, but I don't like it very much.

Well, DirectX only managed to mostly catch up with Vulkan with DirectX12, so translating DirectX11 to Vulkan will likely improve the performance because Vulkan is a considerably more optimized API. GTA IV uses DirectX9, so the performance gain with DXVK can be quite big.

Firstly, I don't recommend Emuparadise because it has bad dumps, old translation patches, scene ROMs with cracktros, and is generally not a good website. But if you need to use it due to fast downloads, I would recommend CDRomance or The Rom Depot, and check the megathread first for games that are not available on other sites.

Anyway, here is how you can download from it after its apparent shutdown:

  1. Get a userscript manager

PS: Greasemonkey and Violentmonkey can also be used, but they aren't recommended due to a worse script compatibility.

  1. Get the Emuparadise Download Workaround userscript Userscript installation process with Tampermonkey

  2. Download with the “Download using the workaround script” link How your download options should look like after the userscript installation

That's all. After installing the userscript, if the page was open before, just reload it to apply the userscript. The games are downloaded using Emuparadise's servers. This also functions on mobile devices.

Hey, let me enlighten you: uBlock Origin is even better than you think. Among others, ClearURLs is useless with uBlock Origin.

No issue with that, but… it's not like the majority of guys want to see something like that.

 

I have been eagerly waiting for Phoronix to do some up-to-date benchmarks regarding Fedora 38's possible performance regression (5~10% according to this article) due to the “-fno-omit-frame-pointer” flag (that only helps with debugging), but we only got one for Fedora 38 Beta and this topic was never touched again.

I am not capable of doing the benchmarks myself, so I was wondering if anybody noticed any performance decrease or, hopefully, a performance increase after the upgrade.

In my opinion, the better debugging is not worth over the 5~10% performance cost that comes with it, but I would like to know what you guys think.
