  • One thing worth looking into is if your thermal paste needs replacing.

    I see you’ve got an 8145U, that’s old enough that it might need re-pasting. Laptops generally have terrible thermals to start with, so if the paste goes bad you’ll often see them start to thermally throttle on fairly light workloads (like Deltarune).

    Another thing worth considering would be to turn on thermald to better control your temps.








  • Ext4 is gonna be the fastest for general daily use. The extra utility of copy on write filesystems is stuff like efficient snapshot backups, optional compression at rest for your files, and really really fast copy operations.

    AMD’s drivers are fully FOSS and built into Mesa, whereas Nvidia’s are closed source, so yes, AMD GPUs are more reliable and less of a hassle on Linux. However, Mint makes dealing with Nvidia drivers easy, so it’s honestly your call there.






  • 1,028 movies

    517 shows (20,702 episodes)

    Shows are all 1080p or lower except a couple seasons of select shows in 4k. Movies are 4k HDR when it’s available, otherwise best quality I can find.

    I use Jellyfin because of the client apps and FOSS nature.

    I tend to prefer HEVC/h.265 encodings for the strong trade off between player compatibility and smaller size for the quality level, but h264 and AV1 are also both in my library. I don’t reencode anything except through the Jellyfin server transcoding.
