I got a samsung monitor last year too (it was the cheapest hdr option and I keep seeing reddit praise them) and it has such a terrible hdr experience. When hdr is on either dark colors are light grayish, brights are too dark, darks are crushed, everything’s too bright or colors are over saturated. I’ve tried every combination of adjusting brightness / gamma from the screen and/or from kde but couldn’t figure out a simple way to easily turn down the brightness at night without some sort of image issue popping up. So recently I gave up and turned hdr off. Still can’t use the kde brightness slider without fucking up the image but at least the monitor’s brightness slider works now.
Also if there are very few bright areas on the screen it further decreases its overall screen brightness, which also affects color saturation bcz of course.
Also also just discovered freesync and vrr are two different toggles in two different menus for some fucking reason and if you only enable freesync like I did you get a flickering screen
I really wish there was a ‘no smart image fuckery’ toggle in the settings.

How did they wake the guy?
I have no idea who that guy is and I dont feel like I’m missing out
While I sympathize with not knowing every random english word, the one next to it being ‘rape’ should’ve been enough clue
I can’t speak to factorio since every time that dev has ever opened his mouth it has just been horrific hateful bullshit.

Huh, never thought of that
Never seen a discount that deep. Felt weird
I wasn’t going to buy any ice cream but the clerk told me about the deal at checkout so I did. Another clerk was like “wow you sold another one?”

Older but not too old. Not near the microwave. There was a problem with the WiFi not penetrating a wall well so a WiFi extender on the other side connected to Ethernet over power was supposed to fix that. But that turned out more unreliable than before. In the end a WiFi mesh network worked the best.
When I used one of these it jammed the wifi
Ooh I have another one! Steamland, the game of my childhood. RTS with trains. Would be very cool if it had a sequel.
Nope, it does have wide color gamut and high-ish brightness, wouldn’t buy unless reviews said it was ok. But it does some fuckery to the image I can only imagine could be to make non-hdr content pop on windows but ends up messing up the image coming from kde. I can set it up to look alright in either in a light or dark environment but the problem is I can’t quickly switch between them without fiddling with all the settings again.
Compared to my cooler master a grayscale gradient on it has a much sharper transition from crushed bright to gray but then gets darker much slower as well, to a point where unless a color is black it appears darker on the cm despite it having an ips screen. Said gray also shows up as huge and very noticable red green and blue bands on it, again unlike the cm which also has banding but at least the tones of gray are similiar.
Also unrelated but just noticed while testing the monitors, max sdr brightness slider of kde seems to have changed again. Hdr content gets darker on the last 200 nits while sdr gets brighter. Does anyone know anything about that? I don’t think that’s how it’s supposed to work
