I mean there is an overlap between Linux users and those who play card games

Decked out? Cranked?

Not a movie but I feel like Mr Robot had somewhat accurate scenes

Source of that second refresh?

KDE Plasma Wayland, I’m using it for gaming mainly and occasionally for VR.

Pros:

• supports DRM leasing mandatory for wired VR headsets
• supports tearing (also in windowed apps but requires an additional setting) which reduces input latency in games
• usually all the new fancy features, ex. HDR, appear quickly
• decent support for fractional scaling (handy on laptops)

Cons:

• you might encounter bugs. While Plasma 6 has been a much better experience as opposed to older versions of it, there are still some bugs here and there appearing between the updates. As of this writing thought I can’t recall any bugs on my system.

Blessed be people who have not seen the gacha section of Game banana mods

Does it also affect SteamCMD?

KDE Plasma, yes that happens when electron apps run in native Wayland mode

Except it also has said issue. Additionally it causes my VPN connection to drop when watching streams, and does noise cancellation despite that option being disabled.

Please bring back mini iPhones with Face ID

I didn’t even know Bedrock had a VR mode. I’ve tried the Vivecraft mod for Java and it worked very well, albeit required some settings changed to make the controls more natural

Already sailing

It’s possible your screens electrically disconnect themselves when going to sleep, which makes Plasma refresh its desktop layout, causing flickering.

My Asus screen does this when powered off but not in standby. That used to crash Plasma Wayland back in 5.24 lol

Wild guess but stereo equipment wasn’t a thing in households and it was a way to get the adoption going

oh those, yes they’re annoying, especially switching tabs

Which ones exactly? BL2 doesn’t look/feel like it’s kb/m support was an afterthought

Remedy and Epic agreement was for 2 releases, so I guess Alan Wake Remastered and 2 fit the quota and now they’re free.

Agreed with their bad publisher choices though

Iirc there’s a setting for Wireplumber (in case you’re using PipeWire) to disable that behaviour when a BT mic is being picked up

Thanks, it’s a heavily modified VRChat avatar called Rindo, in case you’re curious :3 : https://booth.pm/en/items/3443188

At first I was tipping my toes in Ubuntu but kept coming back to Windows as I kept running into stability issues. Googling my issues very frequently kept sending me to the Arch wiki, and I thought “well if they have so much covered, why not use this distro instead”. That and 196 subreddit (rule) made me try Arch, and my experience was noticeably better. Barely any crashes and improving Proton compatibility made me use it more and more. I kept a windows install for VR and anti-cheat enabled games until late 2023.

During my transition period (both in Linux and gender lol) between 2021 and now, I kept getting comments “why are you making your life harder with Linux, just use Windows where everything works”. Well, nowadays tables have turned and now I get to say “weird it works for me on Linux”. Except VR, it’s still a mixed experience.
