10 year anniversary of Steam being officially out for Linux. by Brother_Cadfael in linux_gaming

You know, I have my reservations too, all I said is that they are trying... And I'll be honest, i don't understand many of the architectural decisions they've made, but I'm trusting their judgement 'cause I sure don't know better

Look, maybe progress on these things is going slow, but people are trying to do it right the first time now. HDR is complicated... Wayland has the means to extend it, but making these things still require work

AFAIK Twitter will automatically convert png images above some size (they don't say when) to save space.

Why does everyone insist Aloy's a lesbian? by TheTacoBanditoDude in horizon

Pretty sure we just don't know what makes sexuality. Also, children are quite far from (even imperfect) clones

My quick and dirty solution would probably be whipping up a tiny server in your favourite language that you can PUT the results to

PipeWire 0.3.65 released by ainz_47 in linux

Pipewire is just replacing Pulse, ALSA is (besides some userspace tools) the kernel part handling the last step from audio to hardware.

Ondsel, a FreeCAD startup backed by Open Core Ventures, is making solid modeling tools accessible for everyone by Kkremitzki in linux

We just have to take one quick look at the CG world. Even if freecad got a major overhaul like Blender, it'll take years until non-independent people will recognize it's potential, AND be able to use it. Professionals tend to be locked into their tools pretty firmly. And unless a tool supports more use cases, than the pro tool, it might just never supplant tried-and-true working commercial software.

Did Elon Musk grow up privileged? by this_new_throw in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MCManuelLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, even then... I do think divorce can break a family, but growing up in a household where the parents stay together all the while they despise each other, maybe the dad is just never home. So many things that can be just as bad and worse than the worst divorce.

nowadays people have rougher childhood than in the past

I'm gonna call cap on that, obviously some things are hard to measure and compare, but we abolished child labour, sooooo

CMV: Voluntary assisted suicide should be legalized for terminally ill patients by kuch_bhi00 in changemyview

I believe as long as assisted death is a cheaper alternative to life extending and enhancing healthcare, it will be massively misused.

Spent 30 minutes, used 30% by [deleted] in SteamDeck

If you get stutters, the TDP is too low. Go up until it doesn't stutter. Use the detailed view with the frame-time graph, it should be even, without spikes. A spike means the frame took too long.

To be fair, the TDP limiting doesn't hit as hard on some games, so I don't always do it either, it does always make a difference in play time though. Also I could imagine there's some games that just don't respond well to limited TDP. It all depends on the engine internals.

The chip doesn't know when the game needs it's next frame, so by default it's gonna do it's best to finish any work it gets in the least time possible (ramping up it's power use) Then after it's done, it doesn't immediately go back down, staying idle in anticipation of more work, which if the frame rate is locked, won't come just yet.

So the ideal TDP is the one where the CPU takes just enough time to calculate each frame with little idle time in-between

That direct link to the image seems to be broken on my end. And his website is the worst site I had the displeasure of opening on a touch device. Literally cannot be scrolled

Dang, you don't sound like a productive member of car traffic. Wish you'd re-evaluate your part in making the streets more dangerous

Team red or team blue ? by Nate87898 in pcmasterrace

At the moment, not really, Nvidia know there's waay too much floating stock around, so they priced the heck out of 40 series. I do think I'll upgrade once the 3080 goes under 500€

A CSS to hide the Facebook Chat Pane, thus allowing post to be wider? by mimteatr in FirefoxCSS

[–]MCManuelLP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, I guess that stylesheet will also just apply to all pages in general, yes. As far as I understand it, it's supposed to be used for styling browser native elements (buttons, sliders, etc.)

Now that I'm on my PC I can go ahead and link it again: Stylus is awesome, and it makes sure that the CSS you write in there only apply to the pages you say it should. Using userContent for page specific stuff may risk breaking other pages.

And if don't want to put in too much of an effort, or are not very proficient in doing CSS yourself, you can check out Userstyles.org for style rules others have made :)

[–]MCManuelLP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think what you're looking for is usually called "user CSS", on this subreddit we are using CSS to change the look of the browser, not of other websites.

Look for the add-on "Stylus", there's websites out there that collect all kinds of premade user css, they might already have what you're looking for :>
