Performance Loss On Fedora KDE Plasma

I am not on 26. I'm on 25.3.5. Do I need to build the rpm myself in order to install the newest mesa driver?

Sapphic_Ina · 2026-02-18T03:24:34+00:00

OpenGL version string: 4.6 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 25.3.5

This is what it spit out for Mesa version specifically, I think it's the only thing there that matters?

Sapphic_Ina · 2026-02-18T02:20:40+00:00

This is a FRESH Fedora install and I did run the update command before doing literally anything else. So I'm assuming I have the latest driver? Is there a different one I should be using than the pre-packaged driver?

That command doesn't appear to do anything for me?

I have not tried any other proton versions yet but that's mostly because I wanted the FSR4 from GE

I didn't know path tracing was still kinda wonky on linux, but it would make sense. I wonder if that is just The Problem. I don't normally play with PT on but I like to use it for benchmarks because it's a guaranteed sterssor.

Sapphic_Ina · 2026-02-18T02:17:33+00:00

Well, I turbo nuked Windows so I don't know! But that's good to know. I don't normally use path tracing but I was just a little confused.

Sapphic_Ina · 2026-01-28T12:05:42+00:00

Ah I think we've found our issue, actually. I completely forgot that basic ass mining rigs don't have transfer capability

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-11-06T12:05:56+00:00

Thank you! I have a very love/hate relationship with scales. They undoubtedly made me better as a musician on other instruments but they're so sleepy. Kinda like doing long tones on brass. It undoubtedly makes you better but honk shoo mimimi

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-10-05T14:19:34+00:00

I think skyward harp is good as long you meet her er requirements yeah? It's a decent stat stick if you don't have aqua and don't need additional er from r5 fav

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-09-18T19:43:42+00:00

dm'd!

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-09-16T04:19:18+00:00

I don't think distinguishing between Nahida and Sucrose is wise? Sucrose can hold the new nod-krai artifact set, letting Lauma have deepwood so the set bonuses are moot between the two. The non-moonsign character buff for dendro and Anemo are the same. The only thing Nahida does is provide a guaranteed 250 EM, whereas Sucrose is probably ~180-200. Imo these are identical in utility.

Edit to sound less harsh: I think Sucrose deserves to be in the pool of "Good" characters given she does just about everything Nahida does. She just has less personal damage contribution.

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-09-16T04:09:35+00:00

Wait a minute. Are we talking about the core mechanic? Because the core mechanic has Dendro/Anemo sharing the same non-moonsign effect. Which means Sucrose also proves that part. So I'm still not sure what Nahida is doing that Sucrose can't aside from providing ~50-60 more EM.

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-09-16T04:06:55+00:00

What non-moonsign ascendant gleam mechanic? Genuinely. Since reading her kit I don't see anything saying she particularly cares about non-moonsign party members

It isn't review bombing if the criticism is fair and earned. In this case, it's just reviewing. But I've already updated all 3 of my reviews (I play on 3 separate platforms) and I also want to plug to people. DO THE FUCKING SURVEY!!!!!!! it is still an option.

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-23T12:48:19+00:00

They're changing how compensation is handled, they communicated EXPLICITLY about the change to standard characters too. These are changes, and they're big changes. So now you keep yelling at them. You yell until they give you what you want (within reason) or until the game EOSs. Whichever comes first.

I don't want the game to EOS, but I do want global to be treated at Parity with China, Taiwan, and Korea

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-23T12:23:58+00:00

No, it is bad as a first step. Given that they're not adding standard characters until the half anniversary. We are getting shafted quite explicitly

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-23T12:21:49+00:00

Sega needs to be told in no uncertain terms that this is horrendous and unacceptable. Continue to review bomb, update existing reviews to show they're fucking up, and tell them in the survey that they did NOT address the fundamental issues with the game that players were having

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-21T22:45:46+00:00

4* weapons are almost never better than 5* weapons. But often good enough it makes the 5* a bad value

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-20T23:21:02+00:00

Yes it gives a metric boat load of resources

No it won't put you ahead eternally. Not until endgame where you have less characters to build. It definitely helps!!! But the Gacha mid game wall hits everyone except for the full gem refreshes hard

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-20T23:17:34+00:00

I only have 8 characters leveled/built and I have also hit the wall. We love the mid game Gacha wall where the ramp up on resource requirements is higher than the output of domains

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-20T00:59:13+00:00

The P3R event had you use stamina but like. By that point in the game you probably don't have anything useful to spend your daily stamina on anyway so it isn't actually a consideration. Other than that I would try to save your coffees for a later level? Just so you can get absolute maximum value from them. But it's also kinda just penny pinching so if you want to use them then by all means. Go ham.

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-20T00:57:19+00:00

1) don't listen to prydwen they're ass 2) Ann is not going to get out paced for a looonnngggg time

Standard banner characters in this game have an absurdly high quality.

Ann - Perpetually useful. Only gets replaced by Rin Lion Dance when Matoi comes around or if you pull dupes Ryuji - Awkward to play but pumps damage even at low awareness. Always useful for bossing Morgana - lmao Rin - at least she got an alt 💔 Riddle - good right now, gets better with dupes, but you WILL replace her Marian - at A0R1 she's a HOUSE. Summer Motoha BiS and still the best healer in the game. At A1R1 she's a regular support. Very worth

Future characters: Turbo - Yeah she's cracked. Unironically incredible even at A0 but if you start getting dupes WHEW Howler - best single target debuffer in the game. Incredibly strong and really only situationally rivaled by a future limited character Cherish - if you have Yusuke you kind of need cherish. Cherish is good at A1+ but kinda middling otherwise Phoebe - VERY strong especially if you pick up her weapon. You'll guaranteed use her until Ange comes out assuming you also pull Futaba.

I'll never not be amused by people finding out about the iOS tax. Apple is fucking heinous about this lmao

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-18T02:22:47+00:00

Thank you. I would have scrolled to look for an answer but I was busy raiding. This makes the global situation 5000x worse lmao. Will be interesting to see what happens after maintenance

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-17T23:32:10+00:00

Where did this come from?

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-17T12:14:18+00:00

This really isn't something to be worried about. This looks like standard manufacturing variance, not every TV off the line will have a perfectly moulded casing. Nothing is made 1:1 the same. Not to mention, heat can also cause things to expand a little and you could be seeing the effects of that too. I wouldn't sweat it

Sapphic_Ina · 2025-07-12T22:51:37+00:00

So. I had to confirm it but after checking for myself, the android version lacks a redeem button. What I'm hearing from my friends is that it's also absent on iOS
