GNOME Sees Progress On Variable Refresh Rate Setting, Adding Battery Charge Control (www.phoronix.com)

As pointed out in This Week in GNOME, there’s been some continued work on Variable Rate Refresh for the GNOME desktop. The VRR setting within GNOME Settings continues to be iterated on as the developers iron out how they’d like to present the Variable Rate Refresh setting for users. The developers have been discussing how to...

warmaster,

This. As soon as GNOME gets VRR & HDR, I think I’m going back. Also, I’ve read Steam has great integration with KDE, does anyone know how exactly?

warmaster, (edited )

Containerization is not mandatory, some flatpaks are not air-gapped at all which is a real bummer. I wish they all were.

warmaster, (edited )

I wish GNOME was better than KDE for gaming. GNOME is so freaking sexy, I miss it so much.

Edit: apparently I need to clarify, KWIN (KDE’s compositor, has way better support for Wayland than Mutter (GNOME’s compositor).

warmaster,

They are already doing it. Their forked gnome software takes deb packages too.

warmaster,

Considerably better? I would say it has the best UX/UI of it’s category.

warmaster,

If you care about the latest drivers and software, Ubuntu might be a bit lagging behind rolling distros like Arch or OpenSuse Tumbleweed.

Debian distros are good for stability.

Rolling distros for the latest bleeding edge software.

warmaster,

devs have to eat too, open source software (when fully free) is sometimes built as a hobby like Jellyfin, or as a portfolio project, or worst case scenario as a bait and switch to paid (sometimes it’s death sentence). Then there are sponsored projects like Vulkan, or others that live off of donations like Mozilla.

warmaster,

From the link:

Plex is a hybrid streaming service/self-hosted media server.

There’s the main problem. You’re partially in control. I encourage everyone to switch to Jellyfin, even if you don’t have anything to hide.

warmaster,

RE: Initial wayland support… Valve still has to merge this into proton, right?

warmaster,

Krita has been adding photo manipulation tools faster than GIMP is fixing their UX/UI, so at this point I think Krita will be the first to become the most viable FOSS alternative to Photoshop.

warmaster,

Filesharing drove me insane.

I ended up ripping the HDDs and putting them on my server, then proceeded to share the drives as normal. My docker containers now use them perfectly fine. IDK wtf Synology is doing but it’s cumbersome AF.

warmaster,

One step closer for the FOSS drivers to be a real alternative.

warmaster,

Crap, I was hoping to try it. I wonder if AMD will announce something in their FOSS / AI event.

warmaster,

I’m a selfhoster, I setup a home assistant VM and Cosmos Cloud running a bunch of Docker containers, all setup using Cockpit.

Easier, and better looking UI than Proxmox. Also this setup enabled me to use Docker instead of LXD and save on one virtualization layer, which as a beginner every layer adds complexity.

It has been rock solid, it has better hardware support than Debian due to the faster release cycle, only drawback is the lack of documentation or tutorials in comparison to Debian which has a colossal community.

warmaster,

Example:

Nvidia GSP in Nouveau:

Any video related improvement is a must-have for gamers. This release will improve Nvidia support in the open source driver.

warmaster,

I have a friend with a 1650 that got his issues fixed out of the box, when he switched to Nobara. Not Optimus, so YMMV.

Install & setup Jellyfin Install Qbittorrent

Download movies and series, put them in the folders that Jellyfin is monitoring.

Install Jellyfin on your phone and your TV or Streaming device.

Play.

After that, if you want more automation, do what others said: Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, Bazarr

warmaster,

I’m sure they have thought of this, I wonder if they plan to use web apps, or Waydroid, or something else.

Also, there’s a chance mobile Linux could benefit from sponsorships, contributions, etc

warmaster,

If I use GNOME I get the most beautiful desktop UI, if I use Plasma I get a better gaming experience. I wish I could have both.

warmaster, (edited )

I wonder if any of this will improve Wayland/mutter, I love GNOME’s UI… but I had to move to KDE for a better gaming experience.

Ways to pirate music as convenient as Spotify?

The reason I gave up on MP3’s and subscribed to Spotify was because Spotify was easy. I’ve been listening “Iron Maiden - Empire of the Clouds” song every day and like a week ago, its removed. This was the last straw for me. Right now I’m trying to find “Stremio” of the music world. Can someone assist?...

warmaster,

There’s a bunch of apps on Flathub for that, but if you’re looking for a Windows app, then iidk.
