Fedora 25 released today. Updated my home pc on day one, only thing I did was reinstall the nvidia driver on first boot. No issues at all. :awesomelon:

holy poo poo deus ex mankind divided is available for linux on steam now, didnt expect that

kinda funny that it came out on linux before osx

it is fairly obvious that they ported to opengl first, and are only now working on that proprietary apple api they promised

I'm still just really happy with how smooth updating via dnf is for this.

fedora 25 is broke as hell for me, can't even boot the live image without setting nomodeset and then i get software rendering

installing the closed nvidia driver renders the system unbootable

I upgraded from fedora 24 to fedora 25 and it's smooth sailing so far.
I am not on board the Wayland train, however, until they support desktop icons.

Funny thing is, I had to update because I added "vim-minimal" to the list of things to remove in my desktop's ansible script and it felt like it took too long to just remove a single package. Then I tried to install inkscape and realized that sudo disappeared.

I guess now I'll be testing steps by hand first before throwing them into ansible.

My desktop is clean, except for the dev board, various cables going to the dev board, oscilloscope, power supply, other dev board, various networking equipment, and other various things needed for my project.

But it IS organized.
