I think there’s room for both, as in the old days there was typically an IRC channel along side forums that was typically a secondary channel (but not always).

But yeah, forums would be ideal, preferably with federation support so there is no need to make an account with every single one.

It’s mainly Linux Unplugged where that stuff leaks into it. I haven’t heard it on “self hosted” very much.

Give me all of the game’s code, like they have done with older DOOM entries.

• Removed sparse buffer usage that was introduced in DXVK 2.6. This caused all sorts of driver issues that would cause hangs and instability on AMD Vega GPUs and others. (PR #4763) Note: This may increase peak memory usage in some games again.

On this change, it seems it only affects pre-RDNA1 AMD GPUs and so the feature should continue to work on other GPUs. See: https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/pull/4763/

Yes, but only for 2.4 ghz since I live in a small apartment and there’s no benefit to high transmit power in those cases. 5 ghz is another story since it doesn’t penetrate walls easily anyway, so no harm to others.

• Poor infrastructure in many of these communities, and no way to get to larger towns and cities without a car. So you’re stuck with crappy chain stores and terrible quality food, harming your health. And it’s boring, because it can’t support many kinds of entertainment.

• Smaller communities tend to skew towards conservatives, and there’s little way to escape from it (due to the distances and the lack of high speed rail). So expect more religiosity, more discrimination, and politicians that are even shittier than the average.

The proton logs are fairly inscrutable, and probably aren’t helpful if it’s a driver issue.

There’s a big discussion on the Proton issue tracker that may include your problem.

Looking at the specs:

Positives:

• Higher refresh rate (with VRR) and slightly larger screen (so smaller bezel), higher resolution.
• Hall effect joysticks
• Possibly better speakers

Negatives:

• IPS instead of OLED display (but a good quality one at least)
• Only one touchpad, and its tiny
• Seems to be only 2 back buttons instead of 4 on the deck

Neutral / unknown:

• Long term support compared to official Valve devices (hopefully Valve is handling this for third party devices similar to Bazzite).
• Price seems to be the similar to the Deck OLED model (depending on region)

Going by the Verge review of the Windows version of the hardware, it seems the SOC of this isn’t that powerful (and may even be outperformed by the Deck when rendering at 720p on both systems with some games): https://www.theverge.com/reviews/617613/lenovo-legion-go-s-review-feels-good-plays-bad

They did see framerates improve with Bazzite, so presumably the Steam OS release will have similar improvements.

I think there is some postprocessing but yeah it uses Bing. I simply meant that SearXG uses its results (and Bing too for that matter). So it’s layers all the way down.

I’ll add that it’s a meta-search engine rather than something that does the actual searching itself. That’s still useful, but you’re limited by the quality of the upstream search engines (including google, duckduckgo, qwant, etc).

The gain from self-hosting is that you have more control over the results, and can do things like redirect social media sites to privacy friendly alternatives, and create your own bangs (or even add your own custom search engines).

Probably not a massive privacy gain though, although if you host the instance behind a privacy VPN queries won’t be associated with your IP at least.

It’s still in early access, to be clear. Looks like it’s already in a good state, however.

Essentially, although it depends on the specific issue. I don’t think hardware decoding with Wine is well supported either, so this should help with performance in the case of slow CPUs (or very high resolution / frame rate video).

If nothing else, the wrapper can just focus on translating to Vulkan Video, which should simplify things significantly.

Is it still a mess? I thought it was reasonably well supported on Linux with GPUs from the past few years.

AMDGPU virtio native context is somewhat of an equivalent to the other options, although the pieces are not all available yet. Linux guest only as well.

And there’s Venus but that’s for Vulkan only (but a lot can be done with that alone on Linux guests).

Also… “Crime and immigration, street bullying, the soaring cost of housing and fears of military conscription if Germany goes to war are all issues driving younger Germans away from the centre.”

YEP! Better vote harder in your worst interest. Humans are a mess.

To be fair, it’s mostly driven them to the left rather than the right (where the AfD vote is lower than most other age demographics). It’s still stupid that any are falling for it, however.

Quiet, I can’t hear the eggs!

And Oprah for platforming these grifters (among many others).

Jumping around a room exhausting yourself is kind of the antithesis to that.

I’m not sure what games you’re playing, but most are what would be considered light to moderate exercise (unless you’re playing fitness focused games at a high level), hardly something that is going to exhaust yourself. I’ll add that many VR games are standing or sitting experiences (or are room scale but require nothing more than walking).

Nevertheless, there are barriers like the weight and heat of the headsets (and the price) so I don’t disagree that it’s not mainstream.

I’d say the peripheral situation could be better too, such as sim racing gear. Logitech support is solid and looks decent with Fanatec at least, but there’s a lot of options out there that are unlikely to have good Linux support.

I tested out Monado recently with the Reverb G2 and it’s coming along nicely. It’s definitely not ready yet, but hopefully it will be within a few years.

The other thing is that my libraries are alphabetical in Jellyfin, so “Anime” comes before “Kaiju”, and I truly can’t stand the idea that Godzilla gets sent to the back of the bus.

If you mean the order the libraries are listed in the web interface, you change that from “User settings” -> “Home”.
