anji | btw I'm on stable mostly because of power management. I suspend/resume this machine all the time and I've had really good experiences with stable. A little less so with unstable at times. And I feel like the gaming experience on stable is excellent too. Just lagging behind a bit of course | 14:40:05 |
anji | Thanks for all the work you do btw K900. NixOS is great for KDE and gaming :) | 14:40:36 |
K900 | That is very strange because stable and unstable have the same kernel versions | 14:41:04 |
K900 | And suspend/resume is predominantly a kernel thing | 14:41:17 |
anji | Oh they do? I didn't actually notice that. Another misconception of mine busted | 14:42:12 |
K900 | Well stable defaults to whatever LTS was at time of release | 14:43:34 |
K900 | And unstable tracks latest LTS by default | 14:43:40 |
K900 | But if you're tracking linux_latest, and you should be if you're gaming, it will be approximately equal | 14:43:57 |

magic_rb | Any hints about new amd gpus? Im thinking about buying a 9070xt ahead of buying a steam frame | 10:11:47 |
K900 | 2027 for RDNA5 supposedly | 10:13:56 |
magic_rb | Would you buy a 9070xt now? All i got id a 1060 in a box since its EOL and a 3060 in my laptop | 10:20:12 |
K900 | I mean | 10:20:54 |
K900 | Me, no | 10:21:01 |
K900 | I have a 7900XTX | 10:21:03 |
K900 | A 9070XT would be a sidegrade | 10:21:14 |
K900 | At best | 10:21:17 |
K900 | Should you buy one? I don't know, depends on the pricing and your budget and whatnot | 10:21:37 |
magic_rb | Next best is a 5080 but those are already 1.5k iirc and im not really willing to spend that much | 10:26:19 |
magic_rb | I can have a 9070xt for 800ish euros, with the hopeful price of a frame being 700-800€ thats 2k for the setup | 10:26:44 |
magic_rb | Cause i looked very briefly and at least in cyberpunk a 9070xt and 5070ti are equivalent, so going nvidia doesnt make much sense to me | 10:27:43 |
K900 | 9070XT should be a little faster than 5070Ti in raster | 10:28:04 |
K900 | And a good bit slower in RT | 10:28:10 |

Andreas | Hi
I just finished my first nixos installation. So I wonder:
What ist the recomended way of installin "moonlight"? I can only find infos for sunshine. But I use only moonlight in combination with clouddeck... | 19:13:08 |
anji | I haven't tried it but you can try the NixOS native package moonlight-qt or you can try a Flatpak install. Not sure which one is the better choice for Moonlight specifically. | 19:32:50 |
anji | NixOS package search is very helpful:
https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=25.11&query=moonlight | 19:33:04 |
Andreas | Ah, yes. Sorry my brain filtered it out because of "*-qt" and I use gnome and cinnamon desktop.
But concerning to https://github.com/moonlight-stream this is the (only) client for linux.
Thanks | 19:41:36 |
