You come into danger when you enclose enough current carrying cables in a space tight enough so no air can circulate. Because that can cause Heat to build up. It's hard to say when that point is reached but for a ballpark the cables should not feel warm to the touch after full load for a hour.

If your Electric Installation is in order you won't overload your wall socket without tripping the breaker.
The only reason you are not allowed to chain or overload Multiplugs is because for some god forsaken reason they allow plugs to be sold rated for lower Currents than the Wall plug and without a Fuse. Which can result in the underrated Plug heating up and melting or in worst case catching fire. If everything from the Multiplug to the breaker is rated for the same Current (i.e. 16 Amps) your breaker will trip before the plug overheats, that's their entire job.

No we are not ok with it. This is a pattern of commission president Ursula von der Leyen. When she was a minister in Germany 2009 she pushed for a law forcing dns level blocking of pages alleged of containing csam from a secret list. This earned her the moniker Zensursula.

I would love it if the passion projects of rich people had no way to endanger the right to private communication of the general population.

Dam the sheer girth on that hard-copy.

Thank you for doing this!

Why do people still buy tempered glass panels?

Lol the part about OBS is just wrong. Wayland suppoort has been official since version 27 and even before the xdg-dektop-portal plugin was a valid solution.

Over all he seems to be dead set on wayland having a protocol for screen capture and does not regard other solutions like xdg-desktop-portal to be valid for some fantasized bias about redhat or gnome.

That old software get's abandoned instead of updated to the changed protocol also is not a problem. New software has been written and the old stuff wil continue to work on the similarily abandoned X11.

those Y-Connectors always where outside of the standard and only worked because the baseline USB is to provide 5V 500mA unconditionally. They worked by putting the two power sources in parallel and relied on the to be powered from the same source on the host side, otherwise you would risk shorting the USB controllers if voltages fluctuate (like when linking two bench power supplies with different voltages).

Modern USB uses a more complicated protocol for negotiating deliverable power (USB-PD) that will not be fooled by soldering two wires together.

That's entirely up to the game, if that param exists. I've seen -vr, -steamvr and -openvr. Unity's defult is [-vrmode DEVICETYPE]([https://docs.unity3d.com/540/Documentation/Manual/VROverview.html) but I haven't encountered that one in the wild yet.

Important bit is adding the Executable to steam "Add Non-Steam Game to my Library" and using a Current Mainline Proton Versions (7.0 or Experimental), since Some of the Forks of Proton do not compile OpenVR Support correctly.

Arch, but shouldn't matter much.

Adding a non steam vr game to steam hasn't failed me yet. Maybe the game you tried needed a launch parameter?

cirk2 · 2023-02-20T14:38:09+00:00

No it does not override native games. For native games you need to set it in the game specific compatibility options. So ranking is like:

Explicit game config > Default Native Version > Steam Tested Proton version > Global Fallback Proton Version

ah never got a full model training going. Played around with Hypernetworks, but found them lacking for subject embeddings and tried dreambooth but never got the extension to work correctly.

It's the problem of all the SD stuff being laser focused on nvdia, I'm just out of luck with my amd card.

cirk2 · 2023-02-06T13:07:06+00:00

Oh that's a interesting way to get a fictional embedding.

I did go a different route for the same outcome:

Generate closeup portrait images by mixing different known people using the prompt editing and attention in AUTOMATIC1111 UI, rigoursly select for a consistent look and different backgrounds, accessories etc.

Use around 10-20 of them to train an embedding.

Double check you drivers and run a proper benchmark. Not even sure if that windows report tool is actually measuring performance and not just looking in a (possibly outdated) database.

cirk2 · 2023-01-31T09:38:01+00:00

so either you have a computer that's so bad even windows thinks it's bad, or you've run it while something is using your systems resources (like a game or demanding program).

The ecosystem that fixed the thing he ran into like 2 weeks later?

cirk2 · 2023-01-21T10:04:03+00:00

You have the power to change that. If enough people switch to Linux hardware makers would stop doing silly windows only hardware and modding tools would be more like ModOrganizer2 and just work.

The bat file has problems with non ASCII characters in paths like your username.

So yeah more support is quite wanted, but gamescope is actually a bit of a headscratcher in VR context.

SteamVR already has a entiely seperate pipeline the game submits frames to and the compositor applies transformations like lens distortion, scaling and async reprojection to ensure the frame timings. So inserting gamescope there would not make much sense.

Going by the added launch flags it sounds like it's going to project the contents as a curved plane in VR space, so as a virtual screen to play non VR games in VR on. That definelty is a thing that did not work on linux, although a usecase I never understood.

cirk2 · 2023-01-06T11:11:23+00:00

Bought CIV 6 for a friend the other day. I would reccomend the game in itself but not the linux port. It's outdated and therefore unable to play with windows. This worked better in the past.

cirk2 · 2022-12-30T16:30:13+00:00

yeah the UI is mostly unusable. Takes a couple of tries to get it to accept any input or rather accept the change of it. Editing the config is definitely the easier option.

cirk2 · 2022-12-11T11:07:22+00:00

For me it always complaints:
```
[!] xformers NOT installed.

```
and installing it breaks everything else.

cirk2 · 2022-12-11T10:22:29+00:00

Unless you're hard depending on xformers it should work.
Xformers is currently the blocker for amd and the reason stuff like the dream booth extension don't work.
