@darkeox @NZV65572 @Oha what is, nvidia or amd? amd does have raytracing, and nvidia has vulkan with proprietary drivers as far as I know, but maybe I'm missing context because my server didn't load all the thread

@Chee_Koala @SleepyWheel ubuntu studio is not a DAW, it's a music producer focused ubuntu flavour. If you want an open DAW, did you try zrythm?

@Silejonu @Natal @pete_the_cat then, how is it that usb keys and drives work with both windows and linux, once they have been formatted? Is there a different filesystem involved in that case? I, for one, didn't have issues writing on a USB drive, is that an uncommon scenario?

@XenoStare @ZariZari this doesn't make us evil, nor does it make valve good, they did it because they didn't want to pay for windows licenses for all the steam decks they produce, simple as that, we're collateral benefit. Not using entirely free software isn't evil. Every moment we accuse one another of not being supporting enough, idealistic enough, etc, gives the monopolies an advantage because we're squabeling pointlessly. This is what the pollitical left wing should understand as well.

@XenoStare @ZariZari yes, but some convenience is also good. In this case, being able to play windows games, as most of them are released for that platform, on linux without messing a lot with vanilla wine is a godsend. For now, it's about getting people, game studios, etc, to notice us, even if only through the lense of the steamdeck verified badge. It's only temporary I hope, but even if not, philosophi aside for a moment, it's good that we can have more enjoyment than before.

@Puzzle_Sluts_4Ever @V0lD personally, I use systemd timers, in combination with the btrfs tooling to backup certain snapshots of my filesystem, which include game saves. I can't use steam because it's entirely screenreader inaccessible, so I play stuff with retroarch and other emulators, plus the occasional audiogame in wine, and very rarely, native ones, those are so rare.

@mammut @boo agreed, and that's what they rely on, though valve isn't by far the worst offender here

@HubertManne @leo @amanneedsamaid OK then, but saying that, rather than just saying don't use privacy badger would have made a lot of difference. I use UBlock origin, privacy pass for hcaptcha stuff, privacy badger, jshelter from time to time, plus I also use a vpn when I have to, because honestly I don't really like using them, their apps feel clunky, etc. So yeah, it's absolutely fine to have different solutions to the same problem installed, that incourages healthy competition

@amanneedsamaid @leo why? is it something made by them? If so, yeah, understandable

@[email protected] @[email protected] is this the compositor handoff protocol? is that implemented by all major compositors already?

@woelkchen @Bilu47 I recommend that thing would be under the gpl, but to each their own

@Tersevs awesome, thanks for the explanation! I wanted something like this for a long while, especially since I usually game in weird places which are far from the computer. Also, I looked on flathub, and both apps are on there, even the server. Why would run the server as a flatpak, I don't know, but I know it's there, so yeah, gonna try this now.
