They are talking about ray tracing, which has been quite underwhelming with RADV compared to Windows.

Yeah, I deliberately wrote it like that trying to be vague. Don’t know if it was a good idea though. 😅

I played it a few years ago, so I don’t remember if it had an in-game percentage counter.

Without spoiling much: the game has multiple very distinct endings and depending on your playstyle may require multiple playthroughs.

I can say that it is one the best RPGs I have ever played. Nearly every single choice you make has a very noticeable impact on the world.

I have been using Linux for a few years now I have never seen someone say “arch btw” unironically. I swear, memers do more damage to its perception.

The unfortunate thing is that OEMs don’t really have an incentive to ship Linux-powered systems.

Have you ever noticed how vendors who ship computers with Linux often do so at the same or greater cost than Windows? I believe I have heard somewhere that Microsoft subsidizes OEMs for shipping with Windows, which is scummy but Linux can’t really compete with this.

I believe they are the same person who made gpu-screen-recorder (Nvidia ShadowPlay clone). They are obviously very talented and I think it would be better to spend that effort improving Wayland compositors instead.

Still, I wonder what their motivations are as this page does not mention that.

Homebrew itself and the packages it downloads are all on GitHub. So, I guess it is safe. Still, it is probably best to stick with trusted packages and not download random stuff from there.

Homebrew is a very popular package manager for Mac OS, but it is available on Linux, too. It installs packages without root and completely isolated (meaning no conflicts, not sandboxing) from the rest of the system.

I use it on Fedora and in the past used it on Ubuntu derivatives to install packages not available in distro repositories (such as starship).

It can also be used in old LTS distros to have newer versions of packages (for example, I used it to download latest version of neovim on Pop!_OS).

You can also use it to avoid layering small packages to the base image (which extends update times) on Bazzite and similar distros.

Did you follow the instructions here? Fedora by-default doesn’t ship non-free codecs and this may break some apps.

I really loved Nier games. Hope he makes something similarly weird someday.

Maybe? I thought the point of Google Play Services being a regular sandboxed app was to prevent such things.

I am using the Pixel Camera from Play Store with network privilege revoked. I feel like I am losing too much with the stock camera app.

Good call. Fixed.

TBH, I don’t feel as bad because I used “quit to main menu” trick a few times, so not really earned. I am doing my next playthrough with hard rule where I won’t do that during combat.

Same as last week, Silksong. My second Steel Soul attempt ended with

Died to Moorwing… Contact damage :(

Does Silksong count? I am on my second Steel Soul attempt.

My least favorite would probably be Headless Ape from Sekiro, though Savage Beastfly from Silksong is quite close to it.

I think the home server is probably Linux, since the middle panel is from KDE Plasma.

You don’t need to have different drives to avoid Windows overriding your bootloader. Having a separate EFI partition for your Linux install should be enough.

What version is your kernel? I thought Pop!_OS provided newest versions of it.
