j0rge is one of the main devs of bazzite and theres a lot of very strange people in this thread on lemmy.ml chumming the waters here, atomic distros doing well apparently bring out the worst in the strangest linux nerds who think their way of life is under attack. On hexbear a lot of these people causing a ruckus probably aren't even viewable
edit: yeah the thread here on lemmy.ml has 153 comments currently and on hexbear its 63 and much more tame, lol
rpm-ostree is pretty nifty in general, it functions like git so it reapplies each of your configs over what the devs do each time you upgrade, leading to as little config drift and broken upgrades as possible. each upgrade feels like a fresh install imo
cuda works fine on 4070 right now, though iirc certain specific things dont run well and are a little funky in comparison. i think it was ollama? but llama.cpp seems to work fine, same with things like comfyui
Nvidia open source drivers are working pretty good, I have no complaints. Local AI stuff can be a little annoying to setup as a beginner I bet, but if you run it through llama.cpp its smooth sailing. I recommend something like StabilityMatrix (app image) if you have no clue whats going on
Damn I've been a milf for a lot longer than I thought
