I run foobar2000 to transcode music, apply ReplayGain and edit tags. Except I do all of that on Linux through Wine, I have no clue why someone needs Windows for foobar

Epic with a lower cut has the same game prices. Additionally Valve lowered their cut ahead of a launch of Epic Games Store

I think you're talking about CPU governors (conservative, ondemand, powersave etc.)

Changing schedulers on-the-fly, depending on what you need to do on your machine.

"Don't provide bootloader unlocks" https://developer.sony.com/open-source/aosp-on-xperia-open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/

OP's phone, Xperia 1 V, is on this website and requires an IMEI number only to generate an unlock code

You're on X or Wayland?

On KDE you can force VRR for non-fullscreen apps by setting Adaptive Sync to “Always” in Display settings

Used to tip my toes in Linux world circa 2011 as a kid. I found Ubuntu easier to set up than Windows, but the software catalogue was lacking (games, Adobe software).

Came back to it in 2021 when I read about Valve’s commitment to Wine/Proton and DXVK. Tried out Ubuntu once again but I found it unreliable - random lockups, UI bugs (AMD GPU). Whenever I had an issue my answers were featured on Arch wiki, so I thought “why not Arch then”. That and many memes about femboys/trans girls (haii ^^) using Arch made me try it out and.. I stayed with it. Would occasionally reboot to Windows for games with anti-cheat and VR, but over time I kept using Windows less and less.

Fast forward to this year, since April my PC is no longer tainted by Microsoft. All of the games I play work on Linux with no quirks to them, KDE Wayland supports screen tearing so I can play competitive games on it, SteamVR works good enough so don’t have to dualboot anymore.

Kinda glad I learned all of this, as Windows is going downhill with all of the hardware requirements and AI buzzwords
