You may know this already from the Steam Deck, but I highly recommend installing protonup-qt which will enable you to install the glorious eggroll versions of Proton. A lot of game cutscenes don’t work with vanilla proton but will with ProtonGE.
This isn’t the first time such a vulnerability has been found, have you forgotten spectre/meltdown? Though this is arguably not nearly as impactful as those because it requires physical access to the machine.
Your fervour in trying to paint this as an equivalent problem to Intel’s 13th and 14th gen defects, and implication that everyone else are being fanboys, is just telling on yourself mate. Normal people don’t go to bat like that for massive corpos, only Kool aid drinkers.
Not quite true on the second part. It’s primarily Jatco CVTs that are reliability nightmares, and are what is used by Nissan. Subaru make their own CVTs which are widely regarded to be much more reliable.
Pretty much the entire poor reputation of CVTs derives from those shitty Jatcos but the tech itself wasn’t the problem, it was the execution.
I’ve only been fully on Linux for about 4-5 months, but am yet to experience any issues on Fedora KDE with Wayland. Previously while I was distrohopping I was having a bit of a rough time but since settling on Fedora and with Plasma 6 it has been smooth sailing.
I’m using an AMD 5700X/B550m and RX 6700 XT. Also with two mismatched 1440p displays (different refresh rates).
