Sentau,

He is making a joke out of the article saying that GenZ like being tracked

Sentau,

Yes it counts and more than monetary contributions do

Sentau, (edited )

You most probably won’t need to donate to cancer research. It is already being funded in the hope that the medicines developed will bring in the dough once they are ready

Sentau,

Yeah I forgot about monitor support. Guess that’s pretty important. But is pixel shifting gnome’s responsibility or should that be done through monitor firmware so that it’s OS agnostic¿?

Sentau,

I am also sure that it will land as well. As a gnome user I hope it lands sooner than later. I am just frustrated because the pursuit of perfection is keeping us from having a better experience now. It’s the calculator on iPad situation. Just because the perfect solution has not been found yet does not mean there should be no implemented solution at all.

These discussions took place several years ago if I remember correctly. The problem seems to be that cursor seems to want to refresh at a different rate than the content in screen and the people at gnome want the cursor to not feel choppy by being refreshed at the vrr determined refresh rate

Sentau,

VRR does have patches In progress.

This has been the case for years at this point

Sentau,

How are gnome supposed to improve hardware support? Do gnome devs write drivers and such at the present time¿?

Sentau,

Voyager literally does not tell you what instance the community you’re viewing is on.

Yes it does. If there no @lemmy.instance attached to the community then that is because the community is on the same instance as your account.

Sentau,

I like voyager on smartphones and Photon on laptops and desktops.

Sentau,

This is like going to a hotel and asking to see a list of people who stayed in the hotel last week because the suspect is probably staying nearby.

And the hotel can deny to provide this information if it is an informal request. Only with a warrant will they forced to give up that list and a judge issuing the order will want some proof as why the police believe the suspect stayed in the hotel.

I am not a lawyer so I could be wrong about the criteria for the issue of warrants.

Sentau,

But Google didn’t. They were forced by a warrant which was issued on grounds so weak, that judges themselves agreed that it was unconstitutional.

Sentau,

My comment was in context of the comment above and not in the context of the article.

What you said is all true and is what I was trying to explain to the guy above that usually warrants need proof/probable cause to be issued.

Sentau, (edited )

Yes I think that’s weak grounds. And so does the judge who presided over the case as well as several other judges who deemed the warrant as unconstitutional. The only reason the evidence was allowed was because the judge declared that the justice system broke the rules in good faith. I haven’t read the warrant request either just forming my opinion from articles on the issue.

I think that the warrant was issued on weak grounds because what the cops had was a hunch (a calculated one but still a hunch). They had no proof that the perpetrators/murderers searched for the apartment. It is not like they identified that searches for that addressed spiked at some point and served a warrant for those ip addresses during that spike. They just asked for all ip addresses in the last 15 days and that was because they did not have evidence pointing towards a search just a calculated hunch.

Edit : This precedent will have a lot of avenues for misuse. In States were abortion is banned, police can request warrants for abortion searches without the warrant specifying who specifically they are searching for and then investigate women whose ip addresses show up on the list. These will be woman whom the cops had zero evidence against, women who were not even suspects before an unconstitutional warrant like this makes them one.

I thought dnf 5 wont come with fedora 40 because that coincides with the next RHEL release so they want both of them to ship the stable and tested dnf version.

edit - FedoraProject confirming that F41 is the target for dnf5

Sentau, (edited )

I am guessing all of them is it was game running through proton

Edit : the game seems to have a linux native version

Sentau,

In the meantime please share that these issues exist on nvidia forums. Issues caused by nvidia drivrers shouldn’t come under the purview of the kde devs.

Sentau, (edited )

While I don’t know how, I do know that there is a way to have mesa for most things while having AMF encoder for encoding. Nobara has this set up out of the box so there is some way. Maybe you could search for it using a search engine

Am I going off the deep end by considering Fedora Silverblue or Kinoite?

I recently switched my server over to running Plex and Home Assistant in Docker. I like the ease of transfer (just move my compose file and one directory where I have stored all the configs and I’m set) as well as the simple permissions management to give access to directories....

Sentau,

Well for me it auto updates and stages in the background. There is config file /etc/rpm-ostreed.conf in which you can set the AutomaticUpdatePolicy to stage. Then it will automatically check for updates once a day(I think) and will download and stage it. The update is then applied when you shutdown or reboot

Sentau,

Why did you find the need to use the rpm-ostree command¿? Isn’t the purpose of immutability to use flatpaks and containers to get all your apps/software

Sentau,

Wasn’t fedora 38 already on linux 6.5. Why is that touted as feature of fedora 39¿?

Sentau,

Fortunately majority of games work on linux. The major pain point now is the anticheat used by multiplayer games. Single player games more or less work out of the box

Sentau,

Check out protondb to see how your game collection fares on linux. I personally just buy games without checking these days and play on linux but then again I buy older games. Although AAA games also tend to work these days within days of release

Sentau,

The gap between 6.5 launching and 6.6 launching seems smaller than normal.

Edit : looking back this is not the case. It is the same 2 months between releases. Man time flies

GPU upgrade for linux workstation

Hey all! This is my first post, so I’m sorry if anything is formatted incorrectly or if this is the wrong place to ask this. Recently I’ve saved up enough to upgrade my graphics card ($350 budget). I’ve heard great things about amd on linux and appreciate open source drivers so as to not be at the mercy of nvidia. My first...

Sentau,

I am assuming you currently use linux. Do you currently use CUDA with freecad and solidworks(which I am assuming you use through WINE or a VM). AMD generally has better raw performance at same price but has nothing equivalent to CUDA at this point. There is ROCm and plans for CUDA through ROCm but GPU support for ROCm is hit or miss. You also have openCL but performance is nowhere near as good as using CUDA even if the GPU using CUDA is weaker. AMD. will provide a much better gaming and day to day usage experience though
