how does anything handle raytracing? I watched a friend with a 5090 show off his bullshit money rig and maybe it was a 4k monitor or something, I didn’t check, but it wasn’t performant enough to impress me at that price range. Its probably also lack of optimization and nobody ever leaving the default unreal engine visuals.
oh nooo, I’m so scared of my game losing to the competition using AI tools that everyone fuckin hates. Whatever will I do to have value in the eyes of the customers?
Is that around when proton went from 10 to 11? I used proton plus to manually install the last version of 10 for games that had issues with 11.
thats like 270 before shipping and surprise border charges in here money
the low low chance of finding these affordably these days. There is someone in the next town over that is selling complete units starting at 600 or so which is cheaper than I would be able to get the parts.
Oh I’ll have to contact them. I forgot not every company is as bullshit as dell. With them even the bot gives you the runaround and makes you wait for it to ‘asses the case file’ multiple times when literally nothing changed.
8bitdo does both. Even though bluetooth is also 2.4ghz and combined with the wifi board these days, I find it struggles more with physical objects worsening the signal or being far or in different rooms like when I used to have my office on the opposite side of the wall the tv is mounted to and used one pc for everything.
Their quality control has gotten worse though. I have an ‘ultimate’ that had the back paddles crack and fall off, and a pro 3 that had the face buttons shatter right before the end of a perfect attempt at the last berserker fight in god of war ragnarok
I was expecting steamless functionality to come up in one or more forms but this is far sooner than I was expecting
Honestly most of them are more like disproof of concept, and the current one is VR and my headset doesn’t even support HDR. The current one, if I ever find time to finish it, is an attempt to translate control inputs to high dexterity movements that I can do in real life, but any gamer wouldn’t even think to try because even the most insane devs wouldn’t make controls and animations for. Some simple sounding like grabbing a quest item or pulling a lever without letting go of a sword, and some a bit more unhinged like reloading a bolt action rifle in your left hand without dropping the one in your right. Larger objects that can’t convincingly be held together with something else could be tucked under your arm, etc. Past things are mostly just playing with shaders and other visuals that never came close to the image in my mind.
If the business I’m starting doesn’t fail and makes enough money that I can implement the planned ‘down the line’ automations then I’ll finally have time and a bit of financial freedom to actually work on it. Currently its kind of just my de-stress beer and godot moments after dealing with the legal nonsense. It is so damned unreasonable to start a business if you aren’t already rich. I’m only getting by because I accounted for running out of money and moved back to my parents place in advance. One of the parters did the same.
damn now I can make my shitty proof of concepts that I never share out of embarrassment with HDR
I like the idea that inside their skulls is just hair
I’m bringing three more people home in the coming weeks.
you should be able to just move the prefix into the folder managed by bottles or heroic, or add the existing folder location to either of those. All of them just present visuals on top of wine/proton. Might also have to manually download and set the wine/proton version from whichever apps built in management.
I don’t find gnome intuitive but I do with kde. Many people are the opposite. I like to think of it as left vs right handedness but with more learning curve to train yourself in both.
You can probably also rebase to the other if you change your mind if the distro maintainers haven’t stated not to do that or anything but you would probably have to some annoying stuff with the configs that would be left in your user directories, especially if there are any shared dependencies with differences in configuration.
Oh for the ram rgb try
rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=“acpi_enforce_resources=lax”
then reboot. if its a live usb you have to add it to the boot kernel arguments at the grub screen
so they didn’t want to disclose ban reasons and such?
The HDR is fairly recent too. Before you had to jump through like 8x the hoops and also had to use gamescope which is another thing that could both improve and worsen the window situation. If you ever encounter a game where none of the other stuff works gamescope can force a monitor and separately force render and display resolutions for up or downscaling, but tabbing out or using other software like browsing to guides or modloaders have been kinda janky in some games.
hdr works fairly easy now. Not sure about default proton but ge and probably some of the other variants like cachy have it mostly built in. I just use ge-latest for everything via proton plus until a game doesn’t work with it before tryig others.
game settings go to launch options and put in:
PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 %command%
monitor settings make sure hdr is enabled.
I only do dual monitor now but whenever a game can’t be on the right screen or does weird sizing shit:
alt+enter/f11 and drag to correct monitor, or
windowed, move to other screen, borderless/fullscreen, or
borderless, taskbar right click and select move then drag to other screen, or
select other monitor from ingame settings
If none of those work it could also be a native linux build which while nice to have tends not to be consistent across games, and forcing proton will redownload as the windows version which I’ve found will have different screen behaviours compared to native in a lot of games.
Freesync should be in monitor settings if its detected by the system. I’ve only confirmed it a few times working with ge proton as I don’t have many games that both have it and that I remembered to check for it. Usually I do the deck thing even on my desktop and find a config that can hold 90/60/45/30 and set the refresh equal or double manually.
damn we moving forward and backward in time at the same time
I know a number of people that have demonstrated all of the required skills at work but the mere thought of plugging unique shapes into the matching sockets scares the fuck out of them.
Having the electrician at work watch me build a computer and ask “how do you know you won’t electrocute yourself?” made me facepalm thermal paste between my eyebrows. He even solders but he seemed serious, confused, and a bit defensive when I said something like “oh fuck off ya turd”.
I think about that every block in the square hole video with the girl crying a lot. At first it feels like its pointing out lousy and exploitable design, but I start thinking that a lot of people won’t be able to solve it and it’s actually showing how most people think and the girl is the outlier dying from trying to teach people incapable of brain cell.
