  • I got Far Cry 5 for like $7.50 on sale and have been playing it with a friend, and it's actually been pretty fun, mostly driving around blowing stuff up with a rocket launcher.

    I also got Doom Eternal, which has been more interesting than I expected; I thought it would be mostly just hold-left-click kind of gameplay, but you actually really need to think about managing ammo and positioning and cooldowns and tons of stuff like that. I feel really bad at it but it's been lots of fun.

  • Probably in programming communities ? people will understand : people won't understand

  • You could use yt-dlp to download the videos / channels / playlists you want to save, although they wouldn't be available online.

  • I don't really want Phoronix in my RSS, because they post so many articles every day and it would just clog everything up. I just check them once a day or so and read the interesting articles.

  • They've only made like 4 videos, but Bitlytic absolutely exploded my brain with the way he organizes his objects and code.

  • I check Phoronix often, and have some blogs in an RSS reader.

  • Are you using a scaling factor with x11 legacy apps set to be "scaled by system"? That runs them at a lower resolution and scales them up. You can fix it by either using Gamescope or changing it to x11 apps "scale themselves".

  • I've only played it on PC but I like this quite a bit as well

  • Huh, I've had it run on battery for years, is there some serious bug with that? I don't have it run on cellular data or in battery saver mode though.

  • I've been using my MiniLED monitor (Acer XV275K P3) in HDR mode with Plasma 6 on NixOS with an AMD RX 7600. It works well, HDR content is displayed nicely and SDR content is tonemapped pretty well imo.

    It can be a little weird setting up the vk_hdr_layer for mpv, and running games inside Gamescope, but once it works then it looks as good as on Windows I believe.
