I never heard anything before this, so I looked around, and there’s definitely some posts about it.

I’ll have to give them a read.

For now, ignore my recommendation, as I don’t yet fully know my stance on this, with the information provided.

However, I can say that I’ve been super happy with the search results. I don’t use their email service. Just the search and the access to all of the LLMs that are out there.

People expect a free thing to always have your best interests at heart.

Kagi makes sense to me. I pay for a product.

(just as a random side note, lenses alone would make it worth it)

This is why I’ve really grown attached to Kagi (paid search engine).

It’s made the internet usable again. I’m honestly surprised how much of difference there is. I’d really recommend people give it a shot. (there’s a free trial for it)

Awesome, I’ll take a look.
Thanks!

I have a question about swap.

My current rig has 64 gb, and I opted to not create a swap partition. My logic being I have more than enough.

The question is does swap ever get used for non-overflow reasons? I would have expected 64 GB to be more than enough to keep most applications in memory. (including whatever the kernel wants to cache)

I set it up very recently.
It seems like it has a lot more jitter, and I would even say worse frame times than my windows install.

Annoyingly, I can’t find any like fpsVR for Linux or anything that gives me stats. (reprojection ratio, frame times, etc).
I’m rocking an XTX, so I can’t imagine it being my lack of oomf.

I’m kinda stumped, and I’ll probably end up resorting to throwing a windows install on one of my spare drives for vr and fusion360.

Solving the underlying issue, I’d agree.

But you don’t go to a doctor and say “I’m broke, fix me”.

There’s a basic expectation that the patient/tenant will describe why its not broken. What is expected, and what’s it doing instead. (sometimes that needs to be reiterated back to the patient/tenant in order to move, and that’s where the landlord failed here.)
