    Buy whichever suits your needs more.

    I have both systems. Linux on desktop, MacOS on my M3 Macbook Pro. I went with the latter because mainly because of battery life and colour accuracy (for graphical work).

    That said, with system level AI and all the surveillance bullshit coming to the UK, I will probably start dual booting Asahi if/when it’s released for the M3. MacOS will just be for photo/video editing. A shame, because I’ll be giving up the battery life.


  • Six years ago, I inherited a Labour Party that was politically, financially and morally bankrupt. I was told, time and time again, that my party was finished.

    That we were consigned to history, that a majority at the general election, let alone a landslide majority, was impossible. But we proved those people wrong because we changed our party.

    Ripping out the poison of antisemitism, restoring trust on the economy, defence, and national security.

    And becoming a party that, once again, stood proudly with, not against, our national flag. The hard work of change was with a singular purpose. Not power for power’s sake but to change Britain for the better.

    To build a fairer country, with dignity and respect, where everyone is seen, everyone is valued. Wealth and opportunity for all, not just the privileged few. And look at what we’ve achieved in just two years.

    Kid Starver, the hero. Couldn’t help but take a jab at Corbyn, looks like it’s come back to bite him in the ass.





  • Don’t know about Bazzite but performance wise, there isn’t a huge difference between Arch and Cachy.

    If I recall, CachyOS comes preconfigured with a few things, including Steam. Most of it is quite simple to setup on Arch. You can also use Cachy’s kernel in Arch to test for any performance gains if you want to.

    I would say if you already have CachyOS installed, there’s no point replacing it with Arch. CachyOS is Arch underneath anyway.



  • What kind of cooling do you have? Do your fans actually run? Like do they ramp up when your CPU is hitting 100+?

    Probably worth changing your thermal paste, slightly excessive paste is better than too little paste. Whilst there, make sure you’ve removed the film from the CPU cooler and make sure it’s seated properly.

    Go into your bios and adjust your fan curve for CPU, whilst you’re there turn off zero RPM or adjust its temperature so that the fans turn on sooner. Use something like LACT do the same for your GPU.

    Your idle temps aren’t too bad but something isn’t right if you’re hitting 100C+ at load. Especially on that CPU.
