That’d be fine by me, if I could also actually buy a good TV that supports DP.

On the other hand, I also think it’s bullshit that I pay for HDMI through both my GPU & TV, and the HDMI forum still denies me that bought functionality.

I mean, I agree. But I’ve waited long enough for a good OLED TV with DisplayPort. I don’t get why they don’t just add one.

When I click the link in the seedit repo, on the webpage it says “fetching ipns from ipfsgateway.xyz”

There’s really only one way to make sure no new ones come to be…

In retrospect, I have noticed. Thought it was badly compressed content.

It’s not the adapter I bought, but also seems VRR is lacking:

“VRR/G-Sync/FreeSync are not supported.”

Have you experienced otherwise?

I would kindly ask the HDMI forum to point me in the direction of a DP to HDMI adapter that supports VRR or FreeSync. They seem so motivated to gain more funds from royalties, surely they know how to persuade me.

Thanks for the tip. It says YCbCr420. Anything I can do to improve that?

Yep, I really hope a future will become reality where Adobe has some competition and/or an incentive to port the suite to Linux. I just can’t help but cheer on the sounds against Stockholm syndrome. So much of these “it doesn’t work on Linux” is just the company intentionally trying to prohibit integration with open systems (looking at you HDMI forum). In the end I agree, though, when giving advice, it’s best not to assume the “only gaming” use case.

From my experience it’s still a common misconception and I think it’s the largest potential group that can switch. Sucks that your usecase is unsupported, though. Just out of interest, what software can you still not run?

It’s been a while since I’ve watched it myself, but remember them going into the ownership structure.

There’s basically no way for them to not make it a subscription model.

This is a pretty interesting counter example: https://www.eteknix.com/running-yuzu-on-switch-gives-you-better-performance-than-native-gaming/

But, as others have said, exceptions confirm the rule.

Thanks, that was an interesting read! I always felt IPFS wasn’t ready yet, but the value it tries to provide of being a file system, I’ve found no real alternative to. Very good to read that iroh is willing to look beyond the IPFS spec to provide its values with better performance. I hope it works out.

Ever heard of IPFS? I really hope that will take off some time.

I definitely did not run into this many issues when I installed it… Just kinda worked for me, so I’m not sure where you should investigate

Been running Wayland for 5 years on my development laptop (sway, Intel GPU, blacklisted the nvidia gpu). At the start I’ve had a couple of issues, nothing too bad. Haven’t had any issues for over 2 years. Switched to Linux on my gaming PC about a year ago, KDE plasma on Wayland but do most of my gaming from a steam gamescope session. Very happy overall with Wayland, glad it exists. Sharp text on a fractionally scaled display for reading code was just too compelling at the time and it only improved.

Oh interesting & unfortunate. I can confirm I use one display, running it on my TV. I must say, big picture on my desktop session gets closer to the experience than when I initially set this up. I hope they add the quick settings overlay to the normal big picture mode some time. I might switch back to running on my desktop session.

I haven’t had the issue with the menu, never had as far as I remember. It might be because of the way you set up the session. If you try installing the aur package I linked and start that session, the menu hopefully just works as it did for me.

I’m using this package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gamescope-session-steam-git Looking at the source here: https://github.com/ChimeraOS/gamescope-session-steam/blob/main/usr/bin/steamos-session-select

You can see it looks for a script to shutdown steam or defaults to normal shutdown. I pointed os-session-select to a script that restarts my sddm service, before shutting down steam, so it returns me into the default session. It was a bit finicky though and I hacked a systemd service into it to ensure the script didn’t get killed.

Hope this helps. Might clean it up some time and put it in a repository/on the aur.

EDIT: I was inspired by ChimeraOS; it uses that os-session-select for its main project as well to return to the gnome desktop.

I’d say a battery is at least something that should be “chargeable”, either one time or rechargeable. I dont think you can use solar cells to store energy back into the sun.

Not saying that my definition does work for the dirt fuel cell, talked about in the article, though.
