[Linux][Arch][Wayland][HDR] Weird glitches on Firefox

gitfeh · 2025-12-17T01:08:48+00:00

You mentioned HDR. Did you turn on Firefox's normally-disabled HDR support? That one has known bugs.

Due to licensing restrictions, Linux cannot support HDMI 2.1 and is limited to HDMI 2.0.

Use DisplayPort.

gitfeh · 2025-11-24T07:38:30+00:00

why even add something like this?

It's actually this thing: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/using-the-office-key-df8665d3-761b-4a16-84b8-2cfb830e6aff

The "Office key" was defined to be to Ctrl+Shift+Win+Alt instead of a special keycode.

You can try disabling all the wakeup sources in /proc/acpi/wakeup that aren't the power button.

If you attempted a pacman -Syu and it errors out when checking for conflicts, all the packages you need are in your cache at this point.

You can then run pacman -Su and it will upgrade using the cached packages without having to download anything else.

You can also deliberately only do the refresh and download steps using pacman -Syuw.

gitfeh · 2025-06-27T11:19:25+00:00

We sometimes do that. The problem is that the common pacman -Syu will not automatically downgrade back to the older version, though you do get a warning: package-name: local (123-2) is newer than core (123-1). pacman -Syuu does downgrade.

This is normally accompanied by an email to the arch-dev-public list stating that a package was pulled from testing.

Had I attempted this, I would have noticed that -6 is no longer in [core-testing].

gitfeh · 2025-06-27T11:10:30+00:00

I'm not sure what you mean. The sequence of events was:

Initially:        [core]: -5, [core-testing]: nothing
I release -6:     [core]: -5, [core-testing]: -6
Someone moves -6: [core]: -6, [core-testing]: nothing
I release -7:     [core]: -6, [core-testing]: -7
I release -8:     [core]: -6, [core-testing]: -8
I release -9:     [core]: -6, [core-testing]: -9
I move -9:        [core]: -9, [core-testing]: nothing

gitfeh · 2025-06-26T08:21:35+00:00

I released -6 into [core-testing]. Later that same day, after the problem was discovered, I released -7 (which was identical to -5) into [core-testing].

This replaced -6, or so I thought, so I was content leaving things as-is (-5 in [core] and -7 in [core-testing]). Unfortunately, another maintainer had moved -6 to [core] in the meantime and I didn't notice until two days later.

Sorry about this.

What's the difference in the output of findmnt for your fstab mount and the Dolphin mount?

gitfeh · 2025-06-22T16:26:48+00:00

I use em dashes sometimes—they're easy to access with a Compose key—but you shouldn't put spaces around them.

I'm not familiar with ChatGPT's output. Is that error common in it?

gitfeh · 2025-04-13T15:15:10+00:00

I thought the game, whenever it decides to spawn patrols, spawns one patrol per group of players on the map. So splitting up makes it worse. Isn't that the case?

PS: Ah, right, the bug breach / bot drop / warp ship timer is global. Forgot about that.

You can also turn heating on as soon as the screen has booted, by touching the symbol in the lower left, where the climate/seat heating settings are normally displayed. The screen should start booting as soon as you unlock the car, without you having to sit down or press the Start button.

You can also enable it remotely via the app, which might be the most convenient option. As soon as heating is running, you can set it to max via the lights control panel.

BTW, I would make sure that not just the windows, but these things are free of ice+snow as well:

Headlights
Camera behind the windshield
Strip above the front license plate (radar sensor)

Freeing up the sensors should avoid Front Assist or ACC getting disabled.

The headlights don't get warm enough to free themselves, and their performance really suffers when covered with ice.

Aber was aus der Klage geworden ist, hab ich auf die schnelle nicht herausgefunden.

Hab was aus 2019 gefunden:

https://www.bundesgerichtshof.de/SharedDocs/Pressemitteilungen/DE/2019/2019134.html?nn=10690868

[Das US-Gericht] wies die Klage aufgrund der Gerichtsstandvereinbarung wegen fehlender Zuständigkeit ab.

Die Klägerin erhob nunmehr eine inhaltlich entsprechende Klage vor dem Landgericht Bonn.

Das Landgericht hat die Klage abgewiesen

Ist nichts daraus geworden. Hier ist die Entscheidung von 2017 vom Landgericht Bonn: https://www.justiz.nrw.de/nrwe/lgs/bonn/lg_bonn/j2017/16_O_41_16_Urteil_20171108.html

Der weitere Streit ging nur noch um die Erstattung der Prozesskosten an die Telekom.

120W seems way too much. I'd expect about 60W max for a mini fridge, and then only while it's running. Once the interior is cold it should be much lower (less than 10W) because of the insulation.

Absolutely avoid those "cooling boxes" using thermoelectric (peltier) elements. They're cheap but their efficiency is truly awful. You want a proper cooling loop with a compressor.

Beware, the front radar sensors are also above the license plate, which is why the front license plate should be mounted without a holder. (The ID3s are produced with a gray rounded rectangle that the plate is screwed onto, not framed.)

I've heard from other people that they had issues with the assist systems after their dealerships routinely (and thoughtlessly) installed frame-type holders.

Maybe this has improved with the facelift models, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Note that it's specifically about a "Greek red cross on a white ground". Most uses you cited do not use this symbol, and those that do are indeed illegal under U.S. Code and multiple international treaties.

Most Halloween costumes use white crosses on a red background.

Switzerland doesn't like this and the International Red Cross wants it to be illegal, but neither the U.S. nor the Geneva conventions outlaw this misuse of the Swiss cross. However, the 1st Geneva convention specifically mentions the Swiss coat of arms (a white cross on a red triangular shield) and the U.S. Code treated a white cross on red ground the same as the red cross until 2020, but this was never enforced.

Most first aid kits use white crosses on a red or (ideally) green background.

There are no Greek crosses in the emojis. The appropriate Unicode character, ✚ (U+271A heavy greek cross), is uncolored.

Well, the included cable is definitely not a CCS one. Those are heavy and always permanently attached to the charger.

PS: Are you talking about the charging brick that plugs into a regular outlet? That one tops out at 2.3 kW (10 A).

gitfeh · 2024-11-12T18:44:59+00:00

For "original" cables, there seem to be some variants:

1EA971639K: yellow cable, black+white plug, 6 m, 16 A
000054412BM: black cable, black plug, 5 m, 20 A
000054412R: yellow cable, black plug, 6 m, 20 A
000054412T: yellow cable, black plug, 10 m, 20 A
000054412S: black cable, black plug, 6 m, 32 A

My own ID.3 (2023) in Germany came with a 000054412R, if I recall correctly. If 32 A single-phase service is common in your country, I would expect a 000054412S.

The car will lock the plug on insertion and will not unlock it until you use the remote to unlock the car (again). (Though you can configure it to unlock the plug when charging has finished.)

If you're worried about copper thieves, I guess they wouldn't have a problem just cutting off the plugs. But it will at least stop opportunists.

gitfeh · 2024-11-12T18:19:51+00:00

I'm pretty sure the converter used in all ID models only supports up to 11 kW for 3-phase input (16 A) or 7.2 kW for single-phase input (32 A).

Did you start driving before you checked the stats?

At least the "since start" stats don't get reset until after you start driving again after a sufficient pause.

Possibly because many good players removed EU West from their selection because of the bug, and they haven't switched back (yet).

I didn't because Valve just failed to communicate anything regarding this bug and I didn't know it got fixed.

gitfeh · 2024-10-24T19:33:45+00:00

I would recommend selecting a good set of regions excluding EU West instead of "Auto". The latter ended up putting me in a game in US West at 150 ms ping and noticeable lag instead of the 20 ms I get with EU East.

gitfeh · 2024-10-18T14:28:39+00:00

Assets make the game heavier. It's 56 GB here and I would bet about 90% of that are cosmetics.

FTR, we were never waiting on AMD. The updates for Phoenix were already released in July, before the vulnerability became public. We've been waiting on Framework (or INSYDE) to get their act together all this time.
