Not sure what works best in your case. I’m a Debian cat myself but I have been considering openbsd as a future option.

Yes I get that but personally I have a huge backlog to get through and there are lots more games the current one can run that have to come down in price too so I’ll be busy for a long time before I start looking for a new one.

I’m glad they are not rushing a new one out until there is some genuine leap in the tech. I think we have become accustomed to pointless upgrades every year which offer nothing substantial other than lining some shareholders pockets.

In my case the longer they take the better 😊

I’ll pick it up in a few years in a sale when all of the bugs are ironed out and the proved has dropped

I’d try each application one by one. Maybe write a script to monitor load and stop the program if it goes past your desired threshold and notify you.

It could also be a setting in some app like photoprism or immich … I think one of them uses tensorflow to classify images. That would increase the load if thats running in the background.

Maybe try them with an empty directory so there is no data to process and see if you encounter the error. Then add some data and see how the load is.

You could try it with geforce now. I used to play it on stadia a bit but I decided to try warframe when it shutdown. That works fine on deck
