I’m using a QD-OLED monitor and love HDR for movies or tv shows but with gaming I have several gripes that don’t make me enjoy HDR as much, funnily none of them caused by Linux.
A lot of games suffer from pretty terrible HDR implementations so it might just end up looking worse than SDR. Additionally, at least on this display tech, HDR is a trade-off between stable brightness (TrueBlack mode) or peak brightness (Peak mode). I find TB mode to not really pop enough to justify HDR, but peak mode to be too distracting for gaming since turning your camera can quickly change the overall brightness and make the image flicker.
I would say in theory HDR could be a huge increase in immersion for gaming but the tech and execution isn’t really there for me yet.
HDR support on Linux though I find is in a pretty good spot if you’re not opposed to setting a few env variables.


Valve engineers fed up with software, singlehandedly make arch-based handheld, arch-based gaming console, arch-based VR headset, arch-based smartphone, arch-based EV.


Not an apology, an excuse. They can’t let the mob know they actually have power over them.


Besides other pages alternatives you could try a cheap vps. They start as low as $10/year and any will be plenty for a static site. It’s also fun to play around with hosting other stuff. lowendbox.com has some good listings.


Greta woke up one day and chose to be staunchly on the right side of history, apparently an undesirable trait—to those on the wrong one.


I believe Let’s Encrypt only allows wildcard certs for DNS challenges so it’s not really in the scope of Nginx; but I haven’t used other web servers, do they implement that?
Edit: Looked into Caddy, it seems to have a plugin system for DNS providers, that’s pretty slick. I can’t see that ever happening for Nginx they seem very opinionated in wanting to be unopinionated unfortunately. I’m still sad they rejected the PR to implement prefers-color-scheme for default error pages.


There are and will always be distros optimized for running on everything. Fedora is a “move fast” distro, it’s hard to move fast with a lot of baggage.


It’s only about whether the game runs on SteamOS, handhelds and screen size, input and performance thereof don’t matter for the rating like it does for Deck Verified.


Here in the UK I’m getting fed up of regular pride marches because I’m pretty sure “they won” like the fight should be over.
That’s extremely ignorant, especially in the UK where trans people are treated so poorly a woman has been granted asylum in New Zealand over it.


Someone could have used it. Now its just waste.
It’s mentioned 4 times in the article it was headed for the scrapyard, including the sentence you got your info about the battery from. That’s almost impressive…


It’s gotten a lot more stable though some games still cause freezes while others don’t at all. I currently also have to run KDE with direct scanout disabled to get rid of some flicker and fullscreen related freezes, though I haven’t noticed a difference in how it feels compared to with it on.
One non Linux related issue I don’t see mentioned enough is that at least some cards suffer from pretty bad coil whine at normal fps values (~120 is the loudest on mine). I don’t hear it through my headphones but it’s something to be aware of if.
Performance has improved and it’s usually been around what I’d expect aside from ray-tracing, which is still a weak spot but close enough to be playable. ROCM (AMDs cuda equivalent) is working now and FSR4 recently got a breakthrough by vkd3d devs so it might be next.
I don’t regret my choice at all but I’m a tinkerer, if you want it to be 100% ready instead of 90% it’s probably better to wait a year.


I got a Sapphire Pure, wasn’t quite MSRP but with 799€ including 19% VAT still better than I expected in the months leading up to the launch - and it’s just a beauty…
A friend is running a Red Devil on Linux and they have the same idle power draw so I assume it’s just some kinks in the initial drivers but it’s already looking pretty good in that regard, similar to my previous card (Vega 64). The video I saw, and yeah mine is behaving similarly, undervolting drastically increases clocks though stability testing on Linux is not fun so I haven’t looked how far I could push it yet, but really excited for the undervolting potential. I’ve seen it’s possible to get near stock performance with as low as 240W.


Monado definitely has benefits with its asynchronous reprojection and being FOSS but overall I prefer SteamVR when it works cause it’s just more seamless for gaming with its overlay. I’ve had a good experience with recent SteamVR versions where everything apart from Home usually just works, currently on the beta branch.


Depends on your definition of world.


Cause there won’t be elections?
Can you elaborate on the input latency part? It shouldn’t really add any since it’s just isolation.
