  • and the right want the water cycle to halt completely. That’s a new one. To be fair to them, they have certainly tried with some of their legislative choices as of late, but I wouldn’t say it was a conscious effort to break science. Oh wait. Oh I just got it.



  • Makes sense, I just dont quite get what the compositor does in the case of two videos being played simulatanously both with vastly different profiles (e.g. one mostly red, one mostly blue).

    Does the compositor then do correction on a per-window basis, or it just averages across the whole screen. This question is likely outside of the scope of the PR


  • I guess related to the MPV post. From what I understand wp_color_manager_v1 essentially tells a window manager what colorspace its outputting (via dbus?) so that the window manager can make (realtime?) color corrections.

    Trying to think of a use case… maybe if you have a really red video scene, your window manager can normalise that so you can see the different shades of red better. Am I even close?







  • I know, but Pipewire gets a lot of hype and I’m not sure how much of it is deserved.

    I also don’t know where the “easier” part comes into play for the end-user. pavucontrol and pactl reveals as much to me under pipe as it did under pulse. I’m sure the I/O in the background is a lot cleaner, but I’ve not noticed anything in the foreground.

    the first 10,000 times yeah I can get behind the silly view. The next 90,000 times, it just becomes this tired useless phrase uttered mindlessly to the point that you question the well being of the arch users who utter it. That’s what I mean by toxic. I consider my own sanity for using arch every time I hear this phrase.


  • (I hate saying this, but) I’m on arch, and using pretty up-to-date versions of pulse and wireplumber, but no dice. I’ve tried the LTS kernel, still no dice. I think it’s a regression that has somehow largely gone unnoticed, because I cannot find any bug reports about it, despite the headphones being quite popular
