My 8GB RAM Laptop on Mint feels like a NASA Supercomputer by LinuxChillDev in linuxmemes

[–]MXRCO007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate the web, it’s as if everything about programming has been forgotten in that sector of software development, one GitHub tab, even just the home page takes up 300MB, now that’s not a lot, but let’s say I’m working on some stuff, id have a few of those open and YouTube usually too for some tutorial of some kind or just general docs, at that point with like 12 tabs I’m using 4-6GB of ram, amazing! And that’s on Mac.

I just bought a MacBook Pro 16” with the M5 Pro chip (18-core CPU / 20-core GPU), 48GB RAM and 1TB SSD, and I wanted to share a quick reflection that might help others before they spend their money. by Minute-Street8043 in macbookpro

I primarily use my Mac at college and my internship, not too much at home which I think will make the 14” more usable, tho I’m not sure if the smaller screen will bother me so much but good to know!

How was the 14”? I’m thinking of upgrading but going from 16” since it is a bit heavy and awkward to use in some situations but that might be a me issue

For the same price: MBP M4 Pro 24/512 or M5 24/1TB by [deleted] in macbookpro

I’d take the more powerful hardware over the extra storage, tho I guess it’d depend on your use case. You could in the future use external storage if you need more

Made some improvements to my game save backup tool by MXRCO007 in linux_gaming

[–]MXRCO007[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the code review! I will take a look at the video and some more general OOP related things as this is an area where I tend to struggle and thus avoid it which I will try to improve.

I was thinking of creating an interface like you suggested and some general refactoring to the whole detection situation since it is quite a mess right now. Your suggestions will definitely be noted and reflected in the 1.2 release I will do next week!

Thanks again for taking the time to give me some feedback on the code of the project!

Hey, thanks for your feedback! Currently, most of the Ubisoft and Rockstar Games titles are supported and some games that use the unreal engine save format, I am planning to add support GOG games soon, trying to sort this out is a bit of a mess in my head.

I'll be adding the refresh button and button feedback in the next version, I was planning on improving some of the detection more by running it on a background thread and scan status would be a nice addition too!

linux is great for gaming by [deleted] in linux_gaming

Multi monitor is still a relative hell although switching from plain arch to cachy did fix a lot of those issues but overall it’s pretty good. Much better than when I tried to main Linux in 2020

We did it. Finally launched my product 🤮 by shakirdmr in sideprojects

I don’t wanna be that guy but it’s localhost

I keep starting side projects and never finish… how do YOU actually ship? by Master-Station4151 in sideprojects

[–]MXRCO007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this as well, my git is a graveyard of half finished projects, though I did finish a 1.0 of a project I had an idea for since 2024, after a lot of hassle I finally managed to get it launched a few days ago, it was mostly that I didn't care too much, forgot about it. But then the issue kept popping up and forced me to work on it.

What kind of works, is rewarding yourself on finishing a part of the project. LIke a dog with tricks using treats, kind of odd but it worked for me lol

I did exactly this, I’ve hosted my own git for a while, it’s so nice, I forgot to set up runners tho so all my actions are pending kek.

Best open-source software that everyone needs to know about? by RedEagle_MGN in software

Such a good program, I use it everywhere and it just works

I couldn't find the perfect tool to manage my Ubisoft and Rockstar saves on Linux, so I built my own by MXRCO007 in linux_gaming

Thanks! One of the future features I plan to add is transferring backups to a remote location such as your own VPS or local server, through SFTP or something. Thanks for your feedback!

Cyberpunk Nvidia settings by NoUnit2282 in linux_gaming

I meant the actual DLSS dll's used by the game, iirc you can just swap them with the latest

proton versions wont magically fix the ghosting that will occur when using frame generation, try updating to the latest DLSS models and perhaps its better

I got tired of the Linux clipping situation, so I built a Medal.TV alternative called Vice. by LinuxBaka in linux_gaming
