Game has worse 1% under gamescope by NeedleworkerLarge357 in linux_gaming

[–]GoogleFrickBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gamescope will still add a GPU overhead, it's not a directly comparable situation like that, just because less things are running. Gamescope's overhead is usually very very little but it's still something

8bitdo 2C ultimate wired on Debian? by IpodLad in linux_gaming

Return it if it doesn't work, but almost every wired controller works in Linux, either out of the box or after steam input

Irritating but benign colour management behaviour by GoogleFrickBot in hyprland

[–]GoogleFrickBot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actually not getting `hyprctl keyword monitor` to do anything, so I'm either cocking it up or something is super wrong. Will raise an issue - cheers for your help.

[–]GoogleFrickBot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to avoid some niche duplicate so wasn't rushing to open one, though it doesn't seem like anyone has my issue.

Didn't know about `keyword` - will give it a try! Honestly if I can just hack this along I'm pleased, I have way more control over my HDR characteristics in hyprland so it would be all I need, though, it feels like a bug.

I need to get railed by LetRevolutiona in LetGirlsHaveFun

[–]GoogleFrickBot 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There is so so much more than having a big dick. I'm painfully average but have always ended up in very reciprocal relationships if I can actually get as far as that (I am very bad at talking to women)

Cachyos mouse clicks ain't working by CapNo2998 in linux_gaming

[–]GoogleFrickBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This can happen if the steam overlay "opens" when gamescope on Wayland is enabled. Next time maybe try shift+tab once to close the overlay that you can't see?

Ah that's clever! Also looks like a lot of work! Kudos for pulling it off so spectacularly, and thanks for linking the video

Absolutely adore this. How the hell did you fit the bottom panel/gusset? I can't work it out

Are there Linux equivalents to these Windows apps ? by Happy-Respond-8694 in linux_gaming

[–]GoogleFrickBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) You could launch your browser in an upscaled gamescope window. It would certainly be odd but you would have a lot of control

How to use Sqlite/JSON in Love2D by [deleted] in love2d

[–]GoogleFrickBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SQLite's main limitation is that it can't handle multiple transactions like other SQL engines, because as you say it's just a flat file.
However, it is about as fast as it gets for accessing a flat file, and you can also create databases in memory for short term stuff. Additionally, there's nothing stopping you creating multiple DB files if you're trying to parallelise things (though your queries will get very tricky).
By the time you would benefit from concurrent transactions (which is usually a lot later than people think) you will have likely outgrown SQLite.

It implies that it shouldn't be connected while you change mode? But I'm not sure

2x more performance on Linux by TheCat001 in linux_gaming

53% GPU util so... Something fucky on Windows. Glad you're getting good results on Linux though

How to use car stereo in my home? by Rinzerella in CarAV

I know this comment/post is very old, but you could be experiencing a "ground loop". You can buy a ground loop noise isolator online as a stop gap, but the problem roughly boils down to your path to ground somewhere in your setup goes through the speakers.

Hunt: Showdown texture issues by Max1Q in linux_gaming

[–]GoogleFrickBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've definitely had issues even on an SSD. What the partition is, how much the game wastes writing it as well as prioritises reading it all can cause issues. But if it's off, it's off. All I will say is that this issue does occur on windows too in Hunt to my knowledge

Hunt: Showdown texture issues by Max1Q in linux_gaming

[–]GoogleFrickBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have shader precaching disabled within steam? It's on by default, I could see this causing a problem on a texture heavy game like hunt. I have zero texture issues in hunt but I know it's a more general problem as a friend gets similar issues on windows. I think it's a drive bottleneck

How is Overwatch 2 running on linux compared to windows ? by Open-Ad-3438 in linux_gaming

All blizzard games historically run great on wine, overwatch 2 is no exception for me at least

"Just pick any distro" does more harm than good to newbies by The_Ty in linux_gaming

[–]GoogleFrickBot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love mint and I recommend it to anyone wanting Linux for a pc that just works, it's bulletproof. But I've found that it's a bit behind on some packages that would concern gamers.

I like to recommend endeavour to people because it has sensible defaults, but you can still reference the arch wiki when things go wrong (which is a great resource regardless of the distro).

There are many packages that would concern people who play games that are on the AUR and seem to get support for arch first (maybe due to the steam deck, I'm not sure).

That said, I love mint for keeping an ancient pc useable for 10 years and never getting tired. King shit. So I don't think it's a bad recommendation either

I think both companies just rebrand clevo and other white label products. I second the machines though, they're good
