WTF!! How!!

I had to sell my kidney to buy one RAM yesterday /s

Ubuntu 25.10 + Wayland + Gnome 49 + Nvidia driver v580.95 (RTX 3070 Ti) works flawlessly for both gaming and normal apps.

I think it is a Nitter instance.

Ubuntu Core OS for Gaming!!! WTF!

Wish I can say the same about Nvidia Linux driver 😭

Sorry, I just noticed that now.

You may create a bootable/live USB with Mint [1] installed on it, and try it out to see if its works perfectly for you - from functional and performance POV.

With Linux, at least you will continue to get security patches. For Win 7 and 10 are out of support now.

The good news is Nvidia consumer grade GPUs don’t even support vGPU and can’t be passed though if Host OS is using it.

My 3070Ti also doing just fine - both for Gaming and for running Llama.

Now, to be honest, I never had a chance to use AMD GPU on Linux, so I can’t really say if it is at par with AMD GPU performance or not.

When it comes to Nvidia driver for Linux, my suggestion is - always stick to the version you find stable enough.

In my case, Last Nvidia 580 driver version works smoothly on my Desktop. Earlier I was on 550.

On a side note, faulty RAM often cause system freeze/crash. You might want to run memtest from boot menu as well.

PGP integration? Thunderbird has in-built support for PGP, isn’t it?

BTW, most of my incoming emails are routed (and encrypted) via addy.io and never faced any issue in opening encrypted (and signed) emails in Thunderbird.

Off-topic: For RSS feed, you might want to have a look at Miniflux[1] if your also into self-hosting.

Do you know if a similar report exists for Intel based CPUs?

Not sure about Fedora, but openSUSE Tumbleweed and Arch have this enabled for a while now: https://www.phoronix.com/news/openSUSE-TW-x86-64-v3-RPM

If you consider the core count in modern server grade CPUs, this makes sense.

UX is a subjective topic.

Managed devices usually have software installed to track all such “events” that gets periodically uploaded to IT team, or gets automatically flagged to IT team based on security policies of the organization.

If you are using a managed devices, in all likelihood, all of your actions are getting automatically logged/tracked.
