No, that was the H800.

The H200 is the next generation of the H100.


This device has AMD for both CPU ane GPU, so nVidia optimized stuff would not be a factor..


Bazzite is a spin on Fedora Atomic..

It ia a larger distribution better maintained and supported underneath..

All that bazitte does is put steam os interface in front of it..


I know.

Every single person would be better served by just using Fedora. The addition layer is either so thin that the value added is zero or it creates a drastically worse user experience, as the layer around Fedora is poorly maintained by a few volunteers and very little testing is done. Bazzite is pointless and a total waste of time. Nobody should use it.

All of these "layer around actually popular distro" projects are pointless and make using Linux on the desktop a worse experience.


I don't think that's a fair take

Merely having an immutable OS, sandboxed Steam preconfigured, plus propietary drivers for Graphics and Controllers preinstalled, puts it leagues apart from just installing fedora, for people that don't need or want to care about it

The ublue/bazzite guys are hard at work making the experience as streamlined with upstream as possible, while simplifying the rest (Because the less they personally need to maintain the better)

When installing Bazzite for a living room pc, I literally didn't need to step outside of steam once, I could have been setting up an actual console for all I cared to know


> Bazzite is pointless and a total waste of time. Nobody should use it.

Bazzite, as far as I am aware, is closest thing that you can get from a console-like experience for a HTPC*. Although it is possibly to configure Bazzite to launch directly into desktop mode, the key idea behind it is to launch in Big Picture mode, so you can manage the UI using a controller. Once that is done, you are pretty much into SteamOS/SteamDeck-like UI.

The appear of the Distro for me was always to get the convenience and console-like experience, while enjoying more powerful hardware and the benefits of the Steam platform.


Depending on the user’s technical affinity, one exception may be Nvidia users. Only a few distros make getting the proprietary drivers up and running and updating properly easy, and last I knew vanilla Fedora wasn’t one of them.


It's just marketing. Different stories hook different people.


No, it is not. All these spinoff distros are small hobby projects people develop for very niche audiences. They are terrible at marketing since inevitably they are creating a worse user experience for their users.


Aren't we talking about Bazzite specifically here?


The rational is more or less like this..

And i know i simplifying things A LOT here.. but that is the mentality behind it..

When crude oil price go up then gas station raise their prices because they know next they they buy it will be more expansive and they will need more money to afford it, so they raise their prices prices immediately..

On the other hand, if crude oil prices drop, it means that next time they buy it will be cheaper, but the gas they currently have was expensive, so they need to keep the prices up to recover what they already paid for it..


because the people above are just for the interview.. And they are shared across multiple jobs, so it is not just 1 position..

They apply to multiple jobs at multiple companies..

One team handle interview process to make sure they get the job, once they get the job another set of people handle the actual work.. And then the interview team also handle any instance the person need to be seen or talked to..

Each job pay a few of those guys and the company keep the rest.. If they land enough jobs they can easily pay for all that..


Java was popular in enterprises and enterprises system take ages to die..

So people will have to take care of this legacy code for ages..

But this is the future for Java, legacy code..


COBOL story ... perhaps to a lesser extent.


We cannot because the funds cutting DO create Drug resistant strain..

Not directly, but by creating the exact scenario that cause then to be created..

The USAID funds cut will cause patients to have to stop their treatment half way because there are no more money to buy the drugs required to their treatment..

This is the basic recipe to a drug resistant viruses...

When you start a treatment the first to die are the copies of the virus that are susceptible to the drug while the more resistant copies take longer to die..

This is why is so important to keep a treatment even after the symptoms ended, there will still be copies of the virus in your body that are resistant to the drug but not enough copies to cause the disease..

If you stop the treatment half way the copies that are resistant have the opportunity to multiply again, but now the drug will have less effect on it..

Repeat this process enough and you get a strain of the virus that is immune to the drug..

Repeat the process again and again with other drugs and you get a strain that is immune to everything..

With the number of patients affected by USAID cuts means it is practically guaranteed that a drug resistant strain will happen..


firefox on iOS on most places is just a firefox skin on top of safari, since Apple does not let other browsers engines in iOS..


Doublethink at its finest.. We were always at war with Estasia after all..


Developers that fill those informations.. So then saying over there that they do not collect does not mean they are not collecting something..

Also, Brave has already broken trust multiple times..

I do not trust Brave in a million years and would never replace Firefox with it..

Also, i bet that most people do not even know or look at those privacy information at the store.. although i agree they should..


Mozilla has broken trust multiple times as well. If you don't trust Brave because of that, then how on earth are you trusting Mozilla?


I do not trust the scetchy guy running it

I do not trust their relationship with crypto

I do not trust their business model


> the scetchy guy running it

You mean Brandon Eich, the author of JavaScript and co-founder of Mozilla? Why?

The other two points I 100% agree with.


The sketchy guy was the CEO of Mozilla and created JavaScript. If you don't trust him then why did you trust Mozilla when he was in charge?

I'm not sold on their crypto, but one thing is clear. Browsers need to stop getting the majority of their funding from big tech, especially Google. Maybe crypto is not the right way, but at least they are doing something.

Why do you trust the business practices of Mozilla who gets most of their funding from Google?
