Curious what it is about Bazzite that is specifically good for Game Devs as opposed to other distros?

I dev on Mint, but not really sure what "goodies" the article would be referring to?

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

Only one of the new editions is for gamedevs.

> "Bazzite DX will be developer focused edition which will include general developer goodies, just like Bluefin DX or Aurora DX. This will be a general developer image, so it will be scoped to match our existing developer modes."

thought i found a really weird bug in jiff and spent a good ten or so minutes tracking it down, stepping through functions, etc. eventually i realised i was actually looking at a memory corruption bug in papaya! :ferris_worried:

do i get a prize for discovering my first memory safety issue in a #rust dependency? :unsafe_ferris:

#Rust
in reply to Lynnesbian

I'm really curious to see the patch for this problem. The crate doesn't do unsafe code (only marker traits).


Interested in a package manager for Linux that can rule them all?

High suicide rates show music industry โ€˜profoundly dangerousโ€™, researchers say


โ€œThose working as musicians, actors and entertainers were the highest-risk group within the occupational group defined [by the Office for National Statistics] as culture, media and sport occupations, in which overall the suicide rate for males was 20% higher than the male average and for females was 69% higher,โ€ says the report, which was co-authored by Dr Dorian Lamis, a psychologist at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia...

He dismissed as a โ€œmythโ€ the idea that the high suicide rate in the music industry could be because โ€œartists are troubled, brooding, dark, mysterious, mad and, by extension, in extremis, perhaps, suicidal.โ€

I have a few spicy words for people who think it's just the natural way of the arts.

I hope Valve are watching closely with Microsoft working towards an Xbox Handheld gamingonlinux.com/2025/03/i-hoโ€ฆ

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

given that the Xbox app on their own OS is so unpopular (where Steam thrives) it's hard for me to imagine an Xbox handheld that takes people away from Linux handhelds (assuming it doesn't support Steam games). I think the primary market would be people already in the Xbox ecosystem



It's hard to say this, but science (& research more generally) is just being **stopped** in the US right now. This is just one university, losing nearly a billion dollars in project funding pretty much overnight. That's people's jobs, and the research that could save lives.

Re:REI, I followed the union's call to withhold my vote from all the board-approved candidates.

I'm at a Geeat Lakes Alliance of Cooperatives retreat this weekend. I'll mention it at breakfast announcements and spread it among our network.

On REI, I tried but got caught in the minimum purchase poison pill the board put in place. Since then, I've made a purchase, so I'll be able to vote next time.
