On the whole, I believe Preparation H feels good…

Check out the Arch wiki page for Professional Audio, it’s got some great distro-agnostic tips for reducing latency.

I don’t, unfortunately, I’m a guitarist primarily. I did see some MIDI stuff in the menus though, so I think it’d be fine? I think it’d probably depend on drivers, so you’d probably have to check if your device has Linux support, if it’s not just taken care of by the generic drivers. You might ask on linuxmusicians.com, they’re a great resource!

For the music stuff, there’s also Bitwig and Ardour for good DAWs, Ardour’s free so that’s what I use. There’s yabridge for VSTs, though it’s hit and miss, and might be more tinkering than you want as you have to use an older version of wine. I’ve also heard about using carla for this purpose, but I haven’t messed around with that so I can’t attest to it’s usefulness. I use Arch for all this, so ymmv on Kinoite, I didn’t try any of it out when I was on Bazzite, but I can tell you that Bazzite was great for gaming!

Weird, that was my nickname in high school

I’m not a kernel expert, but that’s just quiet and splash right?

It’s not a motorcycle, it’s a chopper

RX6800 here, no issues on Arch other than ray-tracing causing crashes on Cyberpunk, sometimes taking the whole system with it, but as soon as I turned it off everything was groovy. 0 issues on other games, although it’s been a while since I’ve put it to any real challenge, as I’ve been playing Balatro lately.

I am not changing my bootloader today. I am not changing my bootloader today. I am NOT changing my bootloader today!

He didn’t lol, had to drop out of college and I never heard from him again.

I mean, Debian and Ubuntu are very different beasts, but I’ve never had a problem with any of my Endeavour machines except for the nagging itch in the back of my head that said, “it’s not real Arch” lol. The biggest difference from an Ubuntu or Mint is that you have to update more often, and you shouldn’t do it from a GUI so you’ll have to see the terminal every so often. I’d say it’s just about the same as Debian, just that Arch-based distros focus on performance, while Debian-based ones focus on stability. So I use Debian for my servers and Arch for my gaming/music making rigs.

She got out lucky, I knew a guy who spent $10k on WoW in just one semester.

Nah, YouTube serves ads on the same domain as the videos, so DNS filtering is out.

Have they made anything like this for Roku yet?

It’s really not as tough as it’s made out, try something like Endeavour for all the “Arch” but with some sane defaults. The hardest thing is learning a new package manager, but Arch’s is called pacman and it looks like Pac-Man, so you get extra whimsy!

One man, keeping the whole industry alive

when cops are cruel.

So, all the time?

It’s good cardio!

I wonder if it’s like, good at all…
