This man is very french, i trust him 😂.
Never trust a man with this accent around your women though.
Ive always thought this type of french accent sounds so over the top it sounds put on. No offence A1RM4X Keep up the good work. I enjoy your videos.
Its easier to speak english with our own first language accent, be yourself.
@@databug i speak french, my native language is french-based, and also spoke with some actual French people in both English(when they didn't know i could speak french) and French. the accent is absolutely NOT put on. some people just don't care enough to imitate the "native accent" and it's fine that way. i can understand where you are coming from tho coz people in my country make fun of this accent a lot (too much).
@@bocchitherock-ob2bl in the 80s there used to be a program on UK TV called Eurotrash. It was hosted by Antoin de Caunes. He had a super thick french accent similar to A1rm4x. I always though he was just pretending but no he was indeed french. So whenever I hear this kind of strong accent it always reminds me of that show. BTW I was born in Germany but have lived in the UK most of my life. I no longer have an accent. Not that there is anything wrong with accents. It makes for an interesting and colourful world.
Your effort in learning and speaking another language fluently is really commendable. I couldn't care less about your accent as long as you're clear, which you are.
Moi j'apprends le français, et je sais très clairement que ça prend un énorme effort. Ta langue est difficile et je respecte tout le monde qui essaie d'apprendre une autre langue.
Great that you covered Bazzite. My main distribution now on my Legion 7 AMD CPU RTX 4060 laptop. Best wayland, Plasma 6 and Nvidia 550 drivers (baked into the ISO) experience so far. Unlike Cachy with same kernel and drivers... Very stable and secure. Use flatpaks or containers only for most stable use. Documentation is very good too. Updates are a bit slow but done in the background when the PC is iddle. They are only applied when rebooting, very safe!
Hi I saw that you re using bazzite on rtx, did you succeed to make the Steam gaming mode working on Nvidia?
@@herbalizer404 i am using Steam in normal mode. Works fine.
@@pitape1822 thank you, and about big picture mode (gaming mode) on startup? (I want to build a console like setup)?
Because of you, my distro hopping is getting worse, but I didn't know about Ventoy before watching you. So thank you for making it easier 🙂.
Looking forward to your next tests 🙂
Thanks for the video. I'm dual booting my next PC and wanted to find a good distro for gaming. This really helps.
Thank you for introducing us to Bazzite, I'm definitely going to try it out. As I got into Linux gaming last autumn with Nobara 38 it took me some time but I learned a lot. With Nobara 39 I got into a lot of issues which most of them I could fix but my Xone wireless controller still doesn't work without cable besides the firmware compiled okay. Nobara 39 drives me crazy... 🤯🤪
Every Single Point you Made was Just exactly as i experience it. I ist or sind November and IT Just works perfect every Single time.
Yk I was thinking about switching to Linux mint when windows 10 goes down but you’ve really convinced me of bazzit man
From the clip shown in the video, it seems like you looked at the ujust recipe and just ran the recipe name in the terminal (and the one you selected just happened to have an identical command). The ujust command is meant to be used in the form of `ujust distrobox-assemble`, it uses the actual `distrobox-assemble` command in the background, but reads and parses a manifest file to create a nice menu where you can select the contianer you want to make (as the actual distrobox-assemble command from distrobox, will create all the containers from the file by default).
so all those commands in the `ujust` list is literally recipes that you can tell ujust to run, the arguments shown like `ACTION="prompt"` are the default arguments for the recipe, these you can change by just passing new arguments in the same location, for example `ujust distrobox-assemble fedora` will create/recreate the fedora container from the distrobox ini manifest instead of prompting you what container you want to make, hence the default action being "prompt".
also when it comes to things like nvidia drivers, they are available as soon as they are available as stable on rpmfusion
Glad you enjoyed bazzite though!
Personally, I am tired of getting a Distro and spending a weekend just to get everything working on a new Linux desktop. I blindly installed Bazzite on a new gaming rig just knowing its target audience: gamers. I was playing Elden Ring in 30 mins after launching the installer.
Another thing is sometimes I just break the system and I am no longer able to game on other distros when I tried to customize it. I dont have the time anymore like 20 years ago and with Bazzite you just rollback and you are back to a previous working state.
If you want to learn Linux or customize it, this isn't for you. You can opt in for others like LFS or Gentoo which are amazing at that. I had a great time with them
Thanks for the review. You did a great job.
I ran the KDE edition as a daily driver, it's quite good for a new user, once in the desktop. The installer wasn't difficult, but a bit different than what I used for Mint, PikaOS, EndeavourOS, etc.
The only issue with Bazzite was trying to get my second SSD useable by Steam. I got as far as having the SSD automount and no longer require a password (it's just for older games).
Steam would see the drive, but wouldn't add it for Storage.
Oh you're giving me the urge to distro hop again aaaaah! 😂💜
Also i see you're getting some shit because you have an accent, it isn't justified you are perfectly understandable and make a great host!
I commend your English, subscribed.
Another good alternative to bazzite is Aurora-dx.
I installed bazzite yesterday and I’m in love. The concept of atomic distro is really appealing! I just nuke my distro boxes not my system hahahaha
In your opinion, are Bazzite and Nobara the same in terms of performance?
Yes but Bazzite easier to maintain and more stable.
En terme de performance on est en dessous de Windows 11? Le côté play and plus de la distro donne vraiment envie en plus de son mode "console"
oh la là, la bazzite
Gg the vidéo.
I think an immutable , containerized os are the future for masses who just want to play and not deal with the messy bits of os management. If you've come from windows you will use to long updates and not accessing the bowels of the os.
Not even just for the masses. I know my way around linux, it's just that for regular desktop use I use my system completely differently compared to server use.
I prefer mutability when I have a specific purpose for a system, but if this purpose shifts and software gradually gets installed and removed, it can get messy to maintain.
Thx A1RM4X
You tested the new Regata os yet ?
Clunky and alpha state to be honest. The guy is alone and struggling to keep up. OpenSuse is not the easiest distro. Even Arch with Cachy is easier.
I used to use Holoiso, but since it got abandoned I switched to Chimera os, which the only problem for me is Chimera use Gnome desktop which I hate it.
So, is this better, same or worse than Chimera?
Give it a try
Ive been using it for several months, say for a very GPU specific issue with bazzite 40 on the 7900XT that's been recently fixed, i e been having a great time with it.
Hi,
Did you try the steam gaming mode with your nvidia?
Nope, but it should work as expected.
@@A1RM4X it wont, gamescope does not function on Nvidia gpus at all
@@DreamerSouls yes it does work pretty good actually. I need to make a video about it
Does Bazzite run DaVinci Resolve out of the box as Nobara does?
no it makes you use distro box to install a whole other operating sys to do it in a container. which is not great imho
@@marsmotionrecent versions come with a fedora container already set up and ready to use, you can also layer in packages using the rpm-ostree command
I tried Bazzite 3.0 and have since deleted it. I tried three games. Valheim, Fallout 4 and CTA: Gates of Hell. all run on Nobara.
Valheim is the only one that would start, but wouldn't save. Manually or Auto-save. I tried both Gnome and KDE all with Nvidia driver, wayland and x11, none modded.
Needless to say, not as easy to use as advertised. It simply didn't work for me. Maybe, someone else will have better luck.
I did try it on a non-gaming Desktop and I'm hoping it is unbreakable. For printing, web browsing, email and general day to day activities. So far so good.
Salut could you tell me how to limit my fps to 60 in Linux 🤔
mangohud + Goverlay - in goverlay are fps limit options
So would you say Bazzite is better than Chimera?
In my experience Bazzite has less bugs and is more stable.
chimera os based on arch = pc as game console
I want to switch to Linux for gaming, unfortunately I cannot get Ubisoft Connect to work on any distro I've installed. Does anyone have any experience with UC working with Bazzite or another distro? I have tried them all, except Bazzite so far.
I have Ubisoft Connect installed and working from Lutris on Nobara, honestly, I never experienced any problem with it on any distro I've used, but so far I've used only 3 distros (Garuda, PopOS and Nobara) (also sorry for bad English, my native language is Russian)
just don't play this shit from Ubisoft. It's not worth it XD
@@vladosguy8820 I'm currently on CachyOS, and I'm liking it. How is Nobara working for you?
@@mafioso12dk Honestly, other than the Trials games (which I like a lot), I don't play a lot of Ubi games other than FarCry a few years back.
Immutable distros might be our only hope for EA and other games companies allowing their anti cheat software to run. The lockdown kernel will probably be more secured than window's.
Zeu dissetrooo
No demonstration of the controller GUI? What's the point
God fuckin damn, it's so hard to listen, but I can't stop 😂😂
This dude almost sounds like Kermit the Frog with a really heavy accent.
Your pronunciation was clear enough in the first half, but as soon as you got to the negatives I was asking "what?" pretty much every sentence.
Sorry dude, I will do better next time! CC can help sometimes...
I don't see what you're talking about. He's very easy to understand as long as you're giving him your attention. If you're reading something or looking elsewhere while he's speaking then maybe the words could blend together but I've had a really easy time understanding his points, although most of them seem to hinge on the distro being immutable and thus less easily tweakable, although the immutability is also a large part of his pros. It's a double edged sword and that's the majority of what he was attempting to relay
On 1.25x playback speed he sounds like okay
But in normal it feels like I am watching a slow-mo video
But really helpful man 😊😊
console? hahaha, mate we're here for PC gaming, otherwise i would have bought a PS5
trash Distro !
