OK I didn’t know that. Pro cards used to have a W in the start of the name.
Ah well, AMD never was very good at naming schemes.

Games that run on Linux are about as fast on Linux as on Windows. In fact they tend to run a little faster on Linux.
Use AMD CPU and AMD GPU for the smoothest experience.
AMD CPU is more reliable, and Radeon graphics have the best support for Linux.
It is estimated that around 12000 Games work on Linux, or about 90%. For specific game compatibility you can always check protondb. Notice though that some games that have native Linux versions are also on ProtonDB, so you should check on the steam client first if there is a native Linux version.
PS ProtonDB state the number of games that are verified to work as almost 9,900, and playable as almost 30,000 😎
But Platinum or Gold rated games are only 60%.
Personally I generally check ProtonDB before buying a game, but it’s been quite a while since there was something that didn’t work.


Wow cool rig.👍😎
That’s basically double up overall compared to mine. 😋
I have Ryzen 7, Radeon 6600 XT, 16 GB Ram, 1 TB SSD.
PS:
Didn’t AMD change the naming scheme on the Radeon 9000 series so it’s 9070? AFAIK a 9700 is technically a board dating back to 2003.


I agree, they did help Linux 20 years ago, I started using Linux with Ubuntu in 2005, it’s sad IMO that they’re no longer much of a benefit to Linux. They ruined everything with their dual license shit, and trying to do internally behind closed doors, what other projects were working on, for instance when they made MIR to compete with Wayland. And their Snap package system that is proprietary doesn’t help Linux either.
They’ve made so many bad decisions that have been detrimental to both themselves and Linux as a whole. And since 2010 their popularity has been steadily declining.
I suspect their plan was to dominate Linux and become a de facto standard for using Linux. Instead they aren’t even close to the most popular distro anymore.
On Steam survey they rank 7, and on DistroWatch they rank 10 on page hit ranking for 12 months and 1 month. And on a reddit they ranks 8 as of 2025.

It’s sad because Ubuntu had a very strong start, But Mark Shuttleworth wanted to maintain control of code that was used to improve Ubuntu, and introduced the dual license for Ubuntu projects, so Canonical could close up further developments any time they wanted. Meaning Ubuntu/Canonical became untrustworthy as maintainers of anything open source.
Luckily we now have other supporters like Valve now. And it is very telling that Ubuntu is no-longer the #1 goto distro for commercial projects.


Yes I guess it could, but then the growth should appear equally or greater as independent installs.


Originally Ubuntu was marketing itself on freedom, and the open source culture that had made the Linux desktop possible.
Growing on Windows 11 is not helping promote freedom from proprietary software, so I don’t see that as a positive.
Ubuntu has lost perspective, and abandoned the ideals and purpose of Open Source IMO.
Yes I know there are many Americans that are very unhappy Trump became President.
And I really really wish you luck next time. But for now your country is unfortunately represented by madness.


If it’s just advertising, why then are you posting it?
IDK but I’m innocent. I found it a bit confusing so I abstained:

But I can see you downvoted me for answering, so thanks for that. 🤥


They better stop making phones people want, so they aren’t FORCED to make them again.
That makes it a typo, but since there are 15625 3 letter acronyms, and it’s impossible to know them all, instead of being arrogant and assume anything, I asked.
Exactly, “here” is Denmark. I usually always include that when it is relevant to the understanding. But I somehow forgot this time.
Edited my comment to include “here” is Denmark.
THW?


No it’s not, oil does not have a “serving size”.
Thorry wrote both would be required, but when there is no “serving size” it would only be the 100g stated on the label.
Generally here (Denmark) we never see “serving size” because it’s bullshit, and probably considered misleading.
And misleading labeling and marketing is illegal.
12oz can is 355ml very close to the 33 cl or 330ml or 1/3 liter in Europe.
The price you state is almost $1 per can.
Here (Denmark) we get 1 can for $0.30 when on sale, which they almost always are now, because they’ve lost sales to local brands.
When I see people buy these at the cheap, I sometimes comment in a very soft overbearing voice: Nonono we aren’t buying American, like gently correcting a small child.
Edit PS:
The price in Denmark includes 25% sales tax.
Funny story, here (Denmark) it’s actually cheaper than in 2017, because people have stopped buying Pepsi and Coca-Cola, so they are almost constantly on sale at prices way lower than before Trump became president for his 2nd term.
Coca Cola and Pepsi need to have lower prices now than local brands to sell!
Personally I still buy a local brand, even when it’s 50% more expensive than American brands.
Because fuck USA for electing Trump.


That is absolutely useless, and should be returned immediately.


Thanks much better, that I can translate into an actual article.
If an AI can find the bug and point it out, I don’t see a problem, as long as it is checked thoroughly enough by an actual skilled programmer, to make sure that doing what the AI suggest is not making things worse.
