Confetti Camouflage

Can you link the original quote? I feel like there is a lot of context missing here.

From what I understand in the article the prototype TCL panel being demonstrated is actually 4k@1000hz. They mention a few competitors with multiple modes right after which could be where the confusion comes from.

iirc mandatory Client Side Decorations is only a Gnome on Wayland thing and everyone else has support for both Client and Server Side Decorations.

It is used in the Launch Options of a Steam game. %command% just gets replaced by whatever Steam would use to launch the game. It’s useful to set up anything before the game actually launches, such as setting environment variables or run scripts.

Hyprland itself will still continue to work just fine. What it does affect is Hyprland’s ability to propose changes to FreeDesktop specifications like Wayland. Although I think only the lead dev Vaxry has been banned so potentially they could just get some other dev to do that instead.

I’ve been messing about with NixOS for the past 2 weeks or so. While I think I know enough to plug in the right text in the right spots to get a system configured I feel like I understand nothing about the nix language and the syntax is extremely unintuitive to me. If another distro offered declarative configuration as well as something like Nix’s options I would easily swap away from NixOS at this point.

Minisforum just announced their V3 which is a Windows tablet with amazing looking specs. I would wait until people confirm if everything works on Linux, but it’s an option to consider.

Alright, you got me. I mainly care about the GPL license and the ability to modify your own devices as you like. But that doesn’t make as good of a one liner.

Unironically the importance of being GNU/Linux instead of just Linux.

I have a number of IRL friends who daily drive Linux and we all at least have some small partition or drive installed with Windows on it just in case for that one program. I haven’t used it in over half a year and it was for some Need For Speed Underground 2 mod making tool that I used once and never needed again.

I can’t use Wayland until this xwayland Nvidia bug is fixed, which is a shame because I think that’s the last thing holding Nvidia users back. I tried the new Plasma 6 recently and for the most part it was great until I tried gaming and hit that bug. I tried different older and newer beta driver versions but it was more or less the same bug.

The consensus solution. The Steam Deck and Steam Controller’s touchpads can result in both mouse and joystick input being used simultaneously. Locking down which input is used prevents this from working as intended.

Closest thing I know of would be SimulaVR.

No, this is for game developers to make it easier to add more realistic sound propagation to their games, particularly for virtual reality games.

The proprietary Nvidia driver has kernel modules that are specific to a single version of the Linux kernel. With pre-built packages that’s typically whatever the standard kernel is for your distro. If that kernel isn’t booted then you’ll have no graphics driver.

This is solved by DKMS, which will build those kernel modules for every kernel you have installed. You’ll need the kernel headers for the kernel you want to build for, as well as the nvidia-kernel-dkms package which the wiki you linked only offhandedly mentions. Whenever the kernel or driver updates it should build the required modules.

While Vendetta may still work for now, the devs have officially stopped working on Vendetta as of February 6th

If your monitor is like mine (Samsung Odyssey G9 original), you have to disable freesync monitor side to have the aspect ratio correct on non 32:9 resolutions on the displayport inputs.

Here is a website that keeps track of the latest YouTube anti-adblock scripts and if uBlock Origin’s filters are updated to bypass it: https://drhyperion451.github.io/does-uBO-bypass-yt/

I wish we had something like Sponsorblock but for podcasts instead of YouTube. Integrate that into AntennaPod and it’d be amazing.

The Pokemon part fucking killed me. No need to write your own jokes when reality writes them for you.
