Thanks, that’s really neat.

How are the numbers tracked?

It’s only about whether the game runs on SteamOS, handhelds and screen size, input and performance thereof don’t matter for the rating like it does for Deck Verified.

It’s gotten a lot more stable though some games still cause freezes while others don’t at all. I currently also have to run KDE with direct scanout disabled to get rid of some flicker and fullscreen related freezes, though I haven’t noticed a difference in how it feels compared to with it on.

One non Linux related issue I don’t see mentioned enough is that at least some cards suffer from pretty bad coil whine at normal fps values (~120 is the loudest on mine). I don’t hear it through my headphones but it’s something to be aware of if.

Performance has improved and it’s usually been around what I’d expect aside from ray-tracing, which is still a weak spot but close enough to be playable. ROCM (AMDs cuda equivalent) is working now and FSR4 recently got a breakthrough by vkd3d devs so it might be next.

I don’t regret my choice at all but I’m a tinkerer, if you want it to be 100% ready instead of 90% it’s probably better to wait a year.

I got a Sapphire Pure, wasn’t quite MSRP but with 799€ including 19% VAT still better than I expected in the months leading up to the launch - and it’s just a beauty…

A friend is running a Red Devil on Linux and they have the same idle power draw so I assume it’s just some kinks in the initial drivers but it’s already looking pretty good in that regard, similar to my previous card (Vega 64). The video I saw, and yeah mine is behaving similarly, undervolting drastically increases clocks though stability testing on Linux is not fun so I haven’t looked how far I could push it yet, but really excited for the undervolting potential. I’ve seen it’s possible to get near stock performance with as low as 240W.

Monado definitely has benefits with its asynchronous reprojection and being FOSS but overall I prefer SteamVR when it works cause it’s just more seamless for gaming with its overlay. I’ve had a good experience with recent SteamVR versions where everything apart from Home usually just works, currently on the beta branch.

Mostly older phones, here’s a list.

SwayFX has this with the blur_xray option, though it’s a tiling wm.

This seems more like a leechbox than a seedbox, only up to 10 active seeding torrents on the highest plan? That limitation negates the “Unlimited Seeding” perk and so does the seeding time limit.

As a complete usenet newbie (I usually torrent all my linux iso) is there any caveat to getting that bulknews 6 TB block deal to last me for an eternity as a backup? It seems too good to be true.

I can recommend Btrfs for testing distros on bare metal. You can install them onto subvolumes without needing to change the physical partition layout, then once happy with one delete all the other subvolumes to reclaim your space. Only downside is not all distros’ installers support them natively so it needs some manual work occasionally.

Haven’t used it in a while but from what I remember it always puts you in idle if you do something else and only back to online if you do something in Discord itself, as expected from the Wayland limitation.

It could be implemented with the ext-idle-notify-v1 protocol.

I’ve looked through the repo and it seems to be used to check for the current OpenRazer version and to get a list of supported devices and download images of them from Razer servers.

Yes, through a config file change.

The only reason I ever wired my headphones to my phone was rhythm games and now with USB-C this adds latency making the whole thing pointless.

The dream lives on.

Neither do according to their respective docs.

Personally though I would’ve preferred an updated* test with more realistic hardware and zstd compression enabled cause this tested configuration is pretty rare in the real world.

* Their last btrfs compression benchmark was on Linux 4.11 in 2017 it seems, on a 120 GB Sata SSD.

Amazing project, I went to try it immediately and it really just works. This is what I always wished Sunshine was like.
