wait, does arch containers tend to have issues?
Tcontainers usually end up having issues in general
Tthey're meant to be disposable
Karch containers having issues is why I say arch is my favorite container
Kyou are forced to treat the container as cattle and not as a pet
Harch containers (or rather arch in general) regularly requires you to update the keyring and if that is out of date at the right time or a key expires, your update will fail and its why topgrade is configured to not treat distrobox container updates as vital, so if they fail, they are ignored
Dhey how does topgrade run updates for things that require a sudo password (not talking about ublue in particular) like dnf and other package managers
Hit asks for sudo when needed
Dbut what about places where it has to be non interactive (like gamemode update option)
Kit's run as root
Dnever knew that. Is there a way to add custom programs like sbrew from my brew user project
Kyeah, make as script to update it and add it to the config in /etc
Ktopgrade is very extensible
Kwe ship 3 of them

XHopefully a simple question; Been using Bazzite on my LGO for about a month. Overall pretty happy. Using SimpleTDP to allow custom TDP using the default steam sliders. What is the Min/Max range I should set in SimpleTDP so that the slider is consistent with what the hardware will use?
Doh ok. yeah my brew user project is useful for multi-user systems
A4-30, if youre picky 4-25
A0-4 no difference
Abut you can do up to 40W and it will go up to 35W
XAwesome, thank you. I had it set to 4/35 but that was a guess
Ait overheats though and has no perf benefit
A20W is the sweet spot
XExactly the info I was looking for; TY
XIve actually found most games run pretty well between 9-16w with the exception of some AAAs
Ayeah 20W is the plugged in sweet spot for me
Ai usually use performance mode which is the red light
Awhen browsing desktop or gaming plugged in
Aand drop down when I want battery
Pwhat's it do if you disabled root at installation?
XMakes sense. Im mostly using this as a nice handheld when Im working at my desk and pop back and forth so 2-3 hours of battery is kinda what Im shooting for. Otherwise I use my deck for 4-6 hours
Athat just disables the root user for login
Pah ok
Ayou can still do stuff as root
Twhich is recommended btw
Aalso, stuff like the update dialog uses polkits
Troot account should be disabled. i wish we could rip it out of the installer
Awhich is a fancy way to allow a non-root user do something root like
XBy default the root account should be disabled. Any adminstrative tasks will be done with your local user and sudo
Asometimes having the root login helps, but yeah huge footgun on the installer
XDownside to atomic systems using the default fedora installer
Khopefully we get the new web installer soon
Kthey're wrapping up some bug fixes for it
Tif KDE plasma allowed you to make a user post-installation like GNOME does, it would solve creating the user in anaconda which comes with the option of a root account
XTrue; pretty sure the KDE guys assume a installed functioning system with a user account because thats how most distros do it. Probably a flawed assumption
LI am overjoyed with Bazzite. Everything runs so well. Just an insane number of packages and you know what, it runs as fast as any minimalist install.
XHeck; bazzite has been such a pleasure to use that I dove down the atomic distro rabbit hole and now most of my systems are running some form of atomic system 
Danyone else seeing this?
PI wanted to try Kalpa but it was still pretty new last time I did

LAlso, I just love how everything is sanely and automatically organized. I messed with NixOS and GNU Guix, and while I think they are awesome, I just feel like Fedora Silverblue does what I want without hassle. Plus, suspend actually works.
