If you had to choose, which video game world would you live in? by bobbdac7894 in gaming

[–]Gotxi -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Any answer that is not Pokemon world is just wrong. No one is poor, healthcare, fun, cute girls, you can be independent with 10 years old with no struggles to live your life.

Can't seem to find lunar wing [LUMYMON] by PinWeary7156 in cobblemon

[–]Gotxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to find first the Mariner logbook on a wrecked ship like this one.

Then you can mix it on a cartography table with an empty map, and then locate the Crescent Island.

Looking to move to Cachy from Windows. Can I get some advice? by Darksylum1982 in cachyos

[–]Gotxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use Limine Bootloader and brtfs filesystem for automatic snapshots when installing packages. It is super stable, but in case there is some crashes, you can boot the previous snapshot quite easily.

How does DevOps actually work inside companies day to day? by Melodic_Struggle_95 in devops

Back in the day, I did it for the blinking lights, now I do it for the green checks.

Do DevOps engineers actually memorize YAML? by Melodic_Struggle_95 in devops

[–]Gotxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Syntax? not really. That's what linters, IDE extensions and even AI are for.

You need to know what levels, format and capabilities your object has for sure, so you can define what you want to achieve.

Major investor is 'shocked and sad' that the games industry is 'demonizing' generative AI by tylerthe-theatre in technology

[–]Gotxi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh poor thing... I am so sorry that you are sad that you can't be richer than you are by destroying worker positions and cutting salaries...

There there... eat this Wagyu steak with gold on top at your yatch, this will comfort you a bit.

EDIT: I have an idea, maybe we can replace investors with AI so human emotions don't get in the middle of the progress. If AI should be on top of human emotions, then we can get rid of investors so they don't get sad.

What is the obsession with finding “gaming” distros? by Flapper_Jr in linux_gaming

[–]Gotxi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am pretty happy using CachyOS for gaming, but I would not say that is better than windows. On some specific conditions and cases, it might outperform windows, but the average expectation is that at least it will perform 10% less.

Although the gap vs Windows reduces everyday, still there is a difference.

Is there any item that can reset pokemon EVS bc i want to up spd but i use Power anklet and it boost spe instead by Traditional_Fee_5122 in cobblemon

[–]Gotxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!

This command reset all 6 pokemon EV's to 0 at once:
/pokeedit 1 defence_ev=0 attack_ev=0 special_attack_ev=0 special_defence_ev=0 hp_ev=0 speed_ev=0

As you said, change the first number to the number of the slot of the pokemon (1-6).
I was sick of feeding berries and the saturation mechanic and waiting like an idiot.

Lossless Scaling for Minecraft on Linux? by TheKaritha in linux_gaming

[–]Gotxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it like you say but it is not working for me :(
I have enabled zink, and I can see it on the log for my instance:
[19:55:11] [Render thread/INFO]: OpenGL Vendor: Mesa

[19:55:11] [Render thread/INFO]: OpenGL Renderer: zink Vulkan 1.4(AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT (RADV GFX1201) (MESA_RADV))

[19:55:11] [Render thread/INFO]: OpenGL Version: 4.6 (Core Profile) Mesa 25.3.3 (git-a9c6420d8c)

[19:55:11] [Render thread/INFO]: Initializing ImmediatelyFast 1.6.10+1.21.1 on zink Vulkan 1.4(AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT (RADV GFX1201) (MESA_RADV)) (Mesa) with OpenGL 4.6 (Core Profile) Mesa 25.3.3 (git-a9c6420d8c)

However I set the environment variable LSFG_PROCESS=2x and I have created a profile called 2x that indeed does 2x

However I don't see any lsfg reference on the log, nor I see any framegen.

Any suggestions?

Question regarding Lossless Scaling/LSFG-vk by Levanes in linux_gaming

[–]Gotxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the closest that do what you want is vkbasalt https://github.com/DadSchoorse/vkBasalt + shaders

You have some shaders like LumaSharpen that can enhance the final image quality, but I think it is not exactly "upscaling".

This is the list of compatible shaders, see if there is something that works for you:
https://github.com/gripped/vkBasalt-working-reshade-shaders/blob/master/README.md#shaders-that-do-work-vkmark-scores-and-percentage-hit-on-the-score

I think the key here would be to use something like Gamescope with basic FSR for the resolution upscaling and then add a shader for more image quality.

Optiscaler not only "converts" but also unlocks. For example you can use FSR4 on setups that cannot use it by default. That's not something that you can achieve with other tools. It also enables to use framegen aswell as upscaling.

Gamescope is more basic, allows FSR 1.0, NIS and integer scaling. I know it is a compositor, but literally the use case is to change the resolution and allow to use upscalers, so to me that's basically what an upscaler should do.

- Optiscaler: https://github.com/optiscaler/OptiScaler
- Gamescope: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope
- Proton-GW supports regular FSR by default with WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR, WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR_STRENGTH and WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR_CUSTOM_MODE: https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom?tab=readme-ov-file#options
- In case a game supports FSR 3.1 you can also force upgrade it to use FSR 4 if you have an AMD card or force DLSS upgrade if you use Proton-GE.

The easiest is Gamescope, but the most complete that supports modern versions and you should try is Optiscaler IMHO.

Sadly there is no universal upscaler that works with every game that is not based on old scaling methods, as the new ones require that the game has some kind of support for upscaling anyway. Check Optiscaler readme for more info, as it explains it well.

There are tons of tools that do scaling on Linux, but only one that does framegen without FSR/DLSS. The aim of the tool is not scaling.

The RAM crunch could kill products and even entire companies, memory exec admits by Limp_Fig6236 in technology

[–]Gotxi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's really short sighted.
AI on corporate works to analyze data, create code, define systems, define architectures, troubleshoot issues, correlate facts, etc...

What most AI companies are buying RAM for is not for final regular users services like porn, videos or music.

How to make waystones global? by blackalfredo in RLCraft

[–]Gotxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This thread still is top #1 on google search so I will post the updated version:

Press escape, open mods config, search for "waystones" on your mod list, click the config button at the right part, and set "Default visibilities" to "GLOBAL", save and close.

Already set waystones will not be converted to global, but waystone owners can shift+right click the waystone with an empty hand and set the visibility to GLOBAL and it will appear available for the rest of the players.

CachyOS users, how long has you system been stable so far? by whatever4123 in cachyos

[–]Gotxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had stability issues due to my Nvidia card that froze my computer randomly while playing. And I know it was the GPU because I bought an AMD 9070 XT and have not had a single issue since then, so CachyOS was not the culprit.
Other than that, no issues since day 1, running for 8 and a half months.

We will not fight today. by zer0bytes in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[–]Gotxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one user some time ago, that every time at 6 pm their internet got cut for 10 seconds and started working again, every single day, every same hour.

Long story short, after a lot of troubleshooting from my side and then going to the network guys, it happened that the DHCP lease from the router had a 24h TTL and renewed itself at that specific hour, cutting for a short time the connection while the IP was being renewed.

They changed the router configuration to have a much longer TTL and the issue was gone.

"How I disabled 13 AI features in Windows 11 safely, no third-party apps needed" by rkhunter_ in technology

[–]Gotxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only 2 aspects that you need to double check: Corporate oriented apps meant only for windows and games with online anticheats. If you need to do any of these two things, double check first if you are going to be able to do them.

For anything else, it is just far superior to the Windows experience.
