Thank you for the correction! Reading up on eBPF is fascinating.

Additional resource that adds to your secondary point that this is more than just allowing schedulers to be run in userland: https://github.com/sched-ext/scx/blob/main/scheds/c/README.md

I looked into this a bit more and here is the summary: This is meant to show off a candidate kernel feature that allows for running different schedulers in userland.

Task scheduling has become much more complex as CPUs have grown in size and have had new developments in architecture, so the need to develop more complex and robust schedulers is steadily rising.

The kernel feature is meant to lower the barrier of entry for anyone who wants to try getting into schedulers, as well as enable quicker development iteration, by removing the need to completely recompile the linux kernel every time you want to test your code.

YES. I would order ~3 more just for redundancy. If this one breaks, I dont know what I’m going to do.

Why would I need letters at all?

This is the most realistic game I’ve ever seen running with the Godot game engine. This is huge!

Fair point, but for someone who doesn’t like tinkering and is afraid to make the jump to Linux, I still stand by the suggestion.

Different people value different things and that’s okay.

Honestly, just go with Debian Stable (bookworm) with KDE or Linux Mint. It is pretty stable and a windows like experience.

I have not tried VR on it tho, so can’t speak to that.

Fair point. In my defense I’m sick and made this on my phone while taking a bath.

Oh good. I was worried that I had accidentally done something productive.

Also: your comment made me laugh out loud.

Just out of curiosity, what games do you play that dont work on linux?

I used a pinephone as my daily driver for about a month. Importantly, this was 3~4 years ago, things could be better now.

My take at the time: The battery life was bad, the phone was slow, MMS did not work, making a receiving calls was iffy at best.

I really really hope this improves/has improved over time. Android gets more and more difficult to de-google. A linux phone would solve a lot of privacy issues (not all, but some)
