Yes, although the approach that was fixed only applies to Hyprland and some other wlroots compositors. You can use the virtual edid approach on other systems, but it may not be supported on Nvidia GPUs. You can also use it as a simple supersampling method, such as rendering at 1600p to a Steam Deck, for example.

Russia style petrostate feels the most likely. And in a time where fossil fuels are going through their death spiral (if in a somewhat prolonged manner).

Clean living in his view just means focusing on “natural” things. Which means swimming and drinking shit water is safe, but anything “artificial” is dangerous. So he’s certainly not going to care about pathogens in the food supply, because he doesn’t believe they are dangerous.

It’s so LFC works properly. If there isn’t a large range to work with, you can end up with gaps where VRR doesn’t work, causing stuttering or tearing. LFC is needed in general because you want VRR to still work when FPS drops below the minimum frame rate. And while it’s more of an issue with OLED displays there can be negative side effects such as flickering if the display minimum refresh rate is set too low.

The 120Hz refresh rate doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense if frames can’t even transition at a rate that keeps up with it.

The main use is for VRR, with bigger ranges making it more usable (and input latency should improve, but few games are going to run at 120fps). However, it seems like the feature is mostly broken in retail games, with it only really working in that paid tie-in game.

Usually it’s fine. To be honest, most new release AAA games have problems on Windows too (and sometimes it’s worse, such as the first part of the FF7 remake).

Have a look at the Linux VR Adventures Wiki for possible VR solutions.

The original impetus to do these comparisons was that there were reports of significant motion blur on the Switch 2, so comparing it was the whole point.

And indeed, it’s even worse than the original LCD Switch display.

These are quirky in terms of plot but not so much in terms of gameplay (at least your modern examples). That’s fine to a point but I’d like to see a bit more variety.

When pressed on his reticence to implement a full ban [on gambling ads], Anthony Albanese has repeatedly implied that gambling is part of Australian culture.

Culture doesn’t happen in a vacuum, nor is it some sort of iron clad thing that never changes. Government policy has been a major contributor to addressing various public health issues that have historically been seen as cultural, and the same can apply to gambling.

Although I feel Albanese himself has a bit of a blind spot on this issue. He was one of the people who came out against the proposed greyhound racing ban by the NSW Liberal government in the 2010s, which has always tainted my view of him a little.

I thought it was clear from context I was talking about X.

Most of those are lesser evils compared to X, and that’s probably the best you can hope for. And Bluesky is the obvious alternative lesser evil choice if you want a like for like replacement and aren’t open to Mastodon.

If you’re technically inclined, self-host navidrome or jellyfin.

If you just want music and don’t care about the streaming part, bandcamp (although it does have some basic streaming I believe).

If you want streaming and aren’t technically inclined, Tidal.

I get where you’re coming from, but it’s not like there aren’t multiple obvious alternatives (and not just on the fediverse). And someone being clued in enough to boycott Spotify should have no trouble finding those alternatives. Additionally, the platform being owned by an outright Nazi should give even the most out of touch people pause.

But agreed that people could stand to be a bit more tactful about it and not immediately go on the attack.

Not to mention giving 100s of millions of dollars to fund Joe Rogan and his extreme right-wing propaganda.

Good to see, but shame that unemployment and study payments haven’t been raised in real terms.

Annual prices are slightly cheaper, but they’ve been gradually squeezing that too. You can of course pause the months you don’t want, but it’s a somewhat obtuse process.

I’ve just never personally voted using RCV on a ballot that requires you to rank that many candidates for a valid ballot. That seems unnecessary.

Several implementations of it in Australia are full preferential, and require ranking all candidates (and there’s a kind of hybrid optional implementation in the federal senate where there is a minimum but you can rank as many as you want). The NYC one is still optional preferential actually, which is in my view a bad system because people get tricked into “just voting 1” and their vote consequently has less power to influence the result.

Should be used by FSR4 in the future for RDNA4+ games too, which will be faster than using fp16 (which it currently uses).
