Modern integrated GPUs have gotten pretty good lately. If it comes a day where we can’t buy GPUs, we’ll be able to enjoy older titles without much trouble at least…

Just taking this opportunity to remind everyone that the Limewire you knew is no longer. From Wikipedia:

Name reuse by unrelated companies
In 2022, Austrian brothers Julian and Paul Zehetmayr bought LimeWire’s intellectual property and turned it into an NFT service.
LimeWire’s name was revived in 2022 for an unrelated music-based NFT platform, an action with which Gorton expressed displeasure.

Please don’t use no crypto bro NFT infused trash. Go watch the segment from Archive.org.
Seed the torrent if you wanna spread the word.

It’s infinitely safer than this sketchy ass company.

They could. But Java is much more moddable, so whatever they did the community would undo almost immediately.

Bedrock has been doing shitty monetisation for ages. Play Java, enjoy.

TW: Potentially the dumbest comment I’ve ever read on Lemmy.

Oh yeah? Go beat Talos Principle then.

Ngl, it pisses me off that number 4 on the Top 10,000 list is “Clean Baby Sleep White Noise (Loopable)”

Omfg even the neonazis are annoyed at this bullshit?

Small studio and indie titles on 50% off steam sales has been my jam of late

Oh, same.
The wacky performance I’ve been getting on Talos Principle 2 has been annoying me though. Wish they stayed in the Serious Sam engine instead of switching to UE5

One of the commenters said:

“avoid building a PC right now” is advice I’ve been following since 2017

And honestly yeah. I guess at this point if you can afford it, just pull the plug whenever, it’s always some bullshit going on the PC Market anyway.

What I see inside the headset after setting the game to 25% Render scale FSR Ultra Performance Lossless Scaling 5x framegen:

Do you have a TV in the same room as your PC? Or maybe have you connected it to your Living Room?

I’ve setup a Android TV image, installed Jellyfin and SmartTube.
Paired with a cheap bluetooth remote, it makes a pretty sweet media consumption setup for the couch.

Now obviously, you don’t need Waydroid for this at all, you could use native applications but

• The native Jellyfin app for Linux is just a wrapper around the web UI, so you need a mouse to use it, making it annoying to interact with from the couch
• You can use Kodi with Jellyfin plugins, but the default Kodi skin sucks so you’ll find yourself taking a loooot of time configuring a third-party skin before you’re happy with the UI
• You can get browser extensions that trick YouTube into loading their TV interface, but the stock YouTube TV UI sucks compared to SmartTube

So yeah in the end I’ve found this setup to be my favorite “10-foot UI” for media consumption yet.
You turn your desktop into an Android TV box except it’s the fastest you ever used and it has 0 bloat.
Only thing it won’t do is full quality streaming from Netflix or other streaming services because DRM, but I don’t really care about that.

To add on to this, I’m pretty sure Ly changed their service, I remember seeing a message about it during my last system upgrade and having to enable the new one, though annoyingly it seems they didn’t mention it on their release notes, only during the update message.

Anyway, from the wiki

Two steps are reqired to start Ly at boot. First make sure to enable ly@ttyX.service, then disable getty@ttyX.service where X stands for a number from 1 to 6.

The backlash is over the CEO’s comments of “evolving into an AI browser” instead of the current implementation

Go look at that Lisp kojumbo then tell me Rust is ugly.

(defmethod wake ((object magic-packet) address port)
  (let* ((payload (encode-payload object))
         (size (length payload))
         (socket (usocket:socket-connect nil nil :protocol :datagram :element-type '(unsigned-byte 8))))
    (setf (usocket:socket-option socket :broadcast) t)
    (usocket:socket-send socket payload size :host address :port port)
    (usocket:socket-close socket)))

Actually unreadable.

The 8BitDo Ultimate Wireless 2 also only received full Steam Input capabilities after a couple firmware updates to the Controller and 2.4g dongle.

Of course, this is just what Firefox needs fixing long standing issues, catching up to web standards, process isolation on mobile AI!

I suppose RTX Remix is what they’ll focus on going forward?

managed using Ansible (even Windows)

Is that any good?
I saw it once on a search result, went 😱🫣 and didn’t look again…
