Unfortunately still have to use W11 for some anti-cheat games I play with friends :(

But being forced to update to 11 motivated me to come back to Linux on a PC. I already have a little homelab with all the flavors, but was wondering how it would game on my desktop.

Ultimately went with Debian + KDE on a second SSD, and it’s just awesome. Especially coming from WSL on my desktop, it’s just so seamless.

Had a little trouble getting Nvidia drivers for my relatively new card (Debian’s latest proprietary driver still didn’t support it lol), so I had to use the official Nvidia repo. And it was a little tricky signing it for Secure Boot, but other than that, awesome.

Need to run better side-by-side tests, but it at least feels like a 10% or so performance improvement.

Thank you Linux! And fuck Fortnite, release a Linux port already!

The circle reminded me of the “circle-A” symbol https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchist_symbolism#Circle-A

But yea could have just been Ann or Anna at first!

Similar, but I believe the strength addition is also because it changes the directions of the Z-axis layers.

Most filament is rather strong in tension. If you imagine printing a regular cube, without rotation, it’s going to be strongest stretching or compressing the sides of the cube.

But if you pulled the cube apart from its top and bottom, the only adhesive strength is the fused connection between layer heights. Which is super weak.

By printing at an angle, the layer heights may be in a direction that doesn’t receive tensile load, making it functionally stronger.
