The only thing i know about vi is how to exit it lol.

Seems like a strange choice. If anything i would’ve expected them to just use a firefox fork or something.

You’ll have to give a source on that cause i can’t find anything about those cards being cheaper. I looked up bravely default and it’s a remaster of an old game, so it better not cost 90 bucks lmao. And the 90 price is coming from europe. Looks like the games will cost 90 euros in europe. Insanity.

Cartridges that only have a license on them. Nintendo is planning on killing off physical media just as much as any other company.

I thought wuthering waves was broken on linux because of anti-cheat

I personally do like all the eye candy, especially animations and round borders, but sometimes i do enjoy using compositors without any of that just as a change of pace. I also really like river for example.

What in tarnation

I haven’t tried swaylock unfortunately, gtklock is the first wayland screenlocker i tried. Before that i think i was using i3lock-color on xorg, which also worked fine as far as i can remember, but the problem with xorg screenlocking is that it isn’t actually very safe. Also, i’m not sure what distro you are using, but if it is a systemd distro there is probably a better way to trigger the screenlocker. I’m not sure if that script works in that case because it might be elogind specific. elogind is used on distros like artix and void because they don’t use systemd. Elogind is basically just the logind part ripped out of systemd.

I recently finally configured my lockscreen again after switching to wayland. I’m using gtklock and so far it has been working really well. I’m using void linux with elogind installed, laptop suspends when closing the lid ootb. In order to trigger the lockscreen on suspend, i’m using a script placed in /etc/elogind/system-sleep, as described on the artix wiki

From my understanding atleast 1440p or up is the ideal resolution for these technologies to upscale to 4k, but honestly i personally have no idea how it actually looks. I only ever tried fsr on my old vega card once with cyberpunk, but that was 1080p upscaled to 1440p and it looked pretty bad, really had that smeary vaseline look, but like i said, that was a lower resolution and also fsr 1. I think the only way to find out is to see for yourself if you are okay with how it looks. I don’t know if you have the room for it, but maybe you could keep the old 1440p monitor around just for gaming if you end up disliking fsr?

I like to imagine void linux is kinda like that one emo kid. No specific reason really, i guess void just sounds more edgy compared to other distro names.

It’s very convenient for terminal based file managers. I use it to preview my wallpapers images and then i use a keybind to set it as the wallpaper for my window manager. I also recently started using rmpc, an mpd client that can display album art.

I like it mainly because of the image protocol and supporting both x11 and wayland. I still have alacritty installed as well because i like how damn fast it is. If alacritty had proper image support i’d probably only be using alacritty, but they are both great terminal emulators.

I mean, it’s free with prime 🤷‍♂️. That does mean i have a prime subscription though, you got me there.

Not trying to argue with you or anything but i never really understood that sentiment. Don’t you have the same amount of vertical space on an ultrawide?

I have both lol, dual ultrawide setup. My main monitor is a 1440p 165hz ultrawide, and i have a 1080p 75hz ultrawide mounted above it that used to be my main monitor before i upgraded. A decent amount of games support ultrawide from my experience, but for some reason mostly japanese games often times don’t support it. Usually you can find guides to edit the exe to enable ultrawide support, but i haven’t had much luck with that myself. I don’t have an oled display or use hdr though, but from my understanding you might be able to make it work in games by using gamescope. For other types of content hdr isn’t really there yet, but the good news is that the required wayland protocol recently got merged, so it should be a matter of time before it will eventually be working. I usually always have atleast 2 windows open on my desktop next to each other, and ultrawide is really great for that because it gives each window more width to work with, so you have lots of space.

I highly doubt it. Even if they did though, if they just replace it with a firefox fork it could work pretty much as a drop-in replacement.

I’ve been sticking with music players that can output directly through alsa. I settled on strawberry cause it can do that and also has other features that i care about baked in ootb. Deadbeef can also output directly through alsa and i liked it for the most part, but what i didn’t like was that things like mpris support wasn’t baked in, so i would have to mess with plugins. I don’t know if there are any other players that can output directly through alsa, those are the only two that i could find so far.

Yeah i must say i’m a bit confused at why youtubers are glazing this 9070 card so much. First of all like you said, prices are still not down to what they used to be before the first mining craze, second of all: why are they pretending that this is the first time amd has a decent answer to an nvidia 70 series card? From what i remember they always had cards that could compete with that, the problem was usually that they couldn’t compete with the 80/90 series cards (which is probably still going to be a problem now). I also don’t see how this is going to impact competition at all. Most people judging by steam surveys are buying 60 series cards, and those people also seem to keep insisting on buying nvidia instead of an amd equivalent, so i’m skeptical.

I came to the same conclusion recently. Had a bunch of issues after i decided to try running windows 11 instead of 10 in a vm. One of them being that my usb dac refused to work, turns out after googling and finding a weird random chatgpt article that it was caused by a specific update. Had to roll the update back to solve it. Now i have to hope that they solve it before they decide to force the update on me anyways.
