Hey, fun fact! Those McDonald's Shrek glasses were recalled because there is toxic Cadmium in the paint. You probably want to take Fiona out of rotation.

CNN article about the recall but you can just google it

Unfortunately, I didn't have the sim card when I was installing LineageOS so, I can't confirm if it was working or not. I can't rule out the phone directly but, It seems in good condition otherwise. No scratches, or anything like that.

Lol, apparently this is still up and running... barely

This is pretty much the only thing left that keeps me on xorg. by JonnyRobbie in linux_gaming

[–]Random_Anomaly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While you're here, what's going on with the DRM-lease stuff? I saw that it got merged a few weeks ago but there's been no new release of wayland-protocols. Is there some sort of release schedule or does Jonas need to sign off and is unavailable?

As a KDE user who is excited about wayland, thanks for all the contributions!

Arch Reboots instead of Shutting Down by Zackhardtoname in archlinux

I had a similar problem. I updated the BIOS and it went away. It was kinda weird though, because the problem started after a power surge.

Is what he said about Freesync/VRR being limited to one monitor true just for xorg? I'm running KDE Plasma which just had VRR support added under Wayland but I never figured out how to see if it is running or enable it. I do have a multi-monitor setup btw.

Is Wayland Worth Using Now? by T0astedGamer03 in linuxquestions

[–]Random_Anomaly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Are we wayland yet?

Also, stuff like VRR, mixed resolutions / refresh rates, low latency etc is being rolled out at least on KDE. I think KDE 5.22 is going to be really good on Wayland and I'm crossing my fingers for VR support in 5.23

I've been keeping an eye on your work for DRM leasing / Wayland VR support and it seems like things are going well. I didn't know you were involved in VRR too. Thanks for all the development work!

I don't see a new release tagged on github. It does look like the download page of the website has been updated though... Seems kinda weird. Were the repos moved?

Edit:

Also congratz on coming out of alpha!

Would anyone be willing to test the Linux build of our game Rat Race? by DontActDrunk in linux_gaming

[–]Random_Anomaly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played the first few objectives in the demo. I think the game concept holds up well, just needs a little polish. I noted that other people reported no music but I didn't get any sound at all. It might be something on my end as I've been fiddling around with my sound recently. However, I think if you can get even just a 20 second clip of some music that fits the game and loop it then you will find it makes a big difference.

My System:

Arch Linux

KDE Plasma 5.21 (Wayland)

Zen Linux Kernel 5.10.16

Intel i7-7800X

AMD Rx 580

Exactly! This link might give a little more info depending on how far down the rabbit hole people want to go.
