VR support for GNOME Wayland is here!
  • The games have stuttering and soft laggs. Blade and Sorcery is the worst in terms of frame rate and lag.

    (Details: i5-8600k, AMD FX 6750xt, Plasma 6 Wayland, Arch Linux, Valve Index)

  • Gaming laptops are being left behind
  • I use my deck more than my powerful laptop. Because I can use my PC instead of my laptop and dock my Steam Deck and work wherever I need, instead of my laptop.

    Laptops don't have their place for gaming anymore for most people now.

    But my dream laptop came out named Starlite from Star Labs which is small, has a detachable keyboard, can code and write with an stylus and live up to 14h. Like a chromebook or tablet. So idk. Some people would probably still need a Laptop for Blender and stuff on the go.

  • Are niche pillows and cases worth it?
  • No, the pillow says Aloa Vera Microfiber.

    Edit: Ah fuck. I see that the filling is Polyester. It had a big writing on it with "Aloa Vera Microfiber Pillow"... but thats only whats covering the Polyester...

    I guess I like it simple and flat?

  • Is there a way to disable the "Restart to Keep Using Firefox" page?
  • Sucks when the company I work in uses Kubuntu.

    I could disable this feature easily. But idk...

    Additionally something to keep in mind: Better than Windows in every aspect. I would still use Kubuntu. Its fine.

  • OpenAI strikes Reddit deal to train its AI on your posts
  • Pretty sure that AI can understand a difference between troll and promo with other comments.

    It may fill its imagination of what could go into there if its unknown. Pretty sure they see that its edited and a trend.

    Ai is building worlds in themselves. They are capable of understanding some things by patterns. Generally. Its more of a muscle memory thing. I don't think it has consciousness.. yet...

  • How did you meet the love of your life?
  • My ex broke up because I revived an important problem that was a month old, but she eskalated and broke up. Didnt hurt as she had too many red flags she couldnt fix.

    We had a hotel that couldnt be canceled and I was alone with it and payed it alone too. I talked about this issue in a discord dating server and a Person DMed me.

    We both also talked how we both dont want a reltationship in future after having both similar issues. But somehow, we both were too attractive and had the best sex in our both's life. We also are very similar and tend to be the person who we dreamed of to have as a partner.

    Now life goes on and we are a bit too far away, still. After University we plan to come together and meet every vacation for the best sex again.

    I was accepting and embracing the void with the addition to focus on myself and isolate a bit. I loved the idea to finally be able to focus on myself only, but got the love of my life instead.

    I still can focus on myself easily for some reason. Other relationships dragged my entire focus onto them as I always had problems that I wasnt allowed to talk about. But with her I easily can talk about anything

  • Vibe check: What are your impressions and experiences of Lemmy, Kbin, Mbin, and Beehaw?
  • Its a better vibe than reddit till you accidentally hit a lemmygrad user or a hexbear user trying to talk your opinion bad or give some random propaganda because of their communistic view which I never cared less.

  • It took me years to realize this
  • I felt like the left one is true because my ex who didnt felt like she did understand basic things behaved like a boyfriend is only for joy and beauty and not for talking and fixinf problems.

    I just wanted to help a person who was highly motivated to do sports and healthy diet as thats literally my life. I would accept her when she didnt fake this mindset but she literally put herself into this making me think that I am allowed to talk about such topics.

    She was fat btw. Didnt deserve me after lying a lot, especially about emotions. But she was heavily into "I want a prince as a boyfriend who does everything for me". Got a new girl that is direct and cant lie and similar to me with health. Loving it.

  • I finally started using Virtual Desktops, now I feel clean and comfy

    Its also a sickness, after tidying my room and thinking I was finished, I had the strong urge to create a smooth Workflow where I also can't distract myself that easily.

    I should have continued my work instead, that's why I said its a sickness. You get distracted by playing with your Desktop. But this wasn't that bad, it will stay forever.

    I allowed myself to work on coding or school stuff on my first Virtual Desktop. Gaming on my second (and I use save session together with W window rules to make Steam spawn only on that Virtual Desktop). Additionally I allow Discord and Waterfox to stay on both Workspace and Gaming Space for chat/voice and music. Additionally I use often times my 3D Printer and thought, why not creating a Virtual Desktop for it so I can also easily create Art in Blender or also use Krita inside that Workspace besides accessing Octoprint. This will be my artistic space then. Misc is a Virtual Desktop where I use Signal Desktop and Syncthing, or manage System Settings whenever I feel I don't wan't to do it on any other Virtual Desktop.

    I love KDE!

    New Extruder not extruding properly with Marlin Firmware

    Got lazy but have posted once about my Extruder being the reason why Octoprint or Firmware is not starting the Print.

    I compiled my Marlin Firmware by adding #define DEFAULT_Kp 16.44 #define DEFAULT_Ki 1.58 #define DEFAULT_Kd 42.75 and it starts, but it does weirdly extrude. When I hit "Extrude 5mm" Manually while nothing is running then it seems like a nice constant flow, but when Printing it somehow stocks, retracts or smth when trying to print. At first I thought its TPU and a new abstract material I have never touched but this currently is the good old Black PLA from Creality that I always used.

    I use Cura and just used the default settings for PLA like always.

    Installed Sprite Extruder Pro kit and Ender v2 Intelligent display, but both won't work properly

    I own the Ender 3 Pro BUT, I have the silent motherboard 32-bit and installed with the firmware: "Ender-3 Pro_HW4.2.7_SW2.0.9.03_SpritExt_H300" because it seems like its the only one meant for the extruder pro kit. It complains that the BL-Touch is not attach to it. I can see it in Octoprint error message and gcode terminal.

    • Firmware Source: https://www.crealitycloud.com/software-firmware/firmware?type=2

    With the default firmware on it, it did manage to start the print till its heated to 228°C, but Octoprint couldn't proceed after the printer heated. It just waited till infinity.

    Additionally the Display is not working at all, its beeping and mid beeping a louder beep is repeating every second. Not sure why, but the display claims to support Ender 3 Pro, Ender 3 and Ender 3 v2.

    More Sources:

    • Display: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B09292H22C
    • Extruder kit: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0B4NHNJ7K
    • Silent Mainboard: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07TY3HQ5H

    What firmware would be the correct one for the extruder? Should I return the Display?

    Silent Mainboard did work with the stock-extruder. It stopped working with Octoprint after replacing the extruder with the new one, but seems to heat and move correctly.

    Installed creality Sprite Extroduer Pro kit, now the nozzle is beyond the bed minimum height

    Having a Creality Ender 3 Pro. Have upgraded the mainboard to a new Silent mainboard. Installed this Extroduer and also have a glass bed. I also purchased another glass bed to exchange the scratched one.

    What should I do about my problem? Is my only solution to buy a CR-Touch Sensor? How does the sensor even work? Will it also scratch it when I am not careful enough or is it user friendly and fully automated?

    I don't have any other bed except the glas one for now. Should I rather purchase a flexible sheet for the bed instead of a glas bed?

    Is there a community on Lemmy to help find the right community on Lemmy?

    I often want to ask for official reddit replacements or similar/same ones but don't know at which sublemmy (community, which word is more appropriate?)

    Can someone recommend me the smallest/lightest portable keyboard for 11' Chromebook Duet3?

    I wonder what ideas could come up, but important for me is that it supports QMK firmware and maybe bluetooth.

    I currently use a very heavy bella RGB ISO keyboard with brass and allumium casing for PC usage and would definetly ditch the chromebooks keyboard. Not sure if soldering my own Keyboard would be a good idea because I love using hotswapable keys.

    I want some ideas and recommendations, maybe I will transform it into a cyberdeck?

    (The chromebook doesnt run ChromeOS but Debian 12)

    Did anyone try Half Life Alyx on Wayland?

    Not sure if its XWayland but the vision stutters a lot while everything else is smooth. Also X11 seems unusable for some reason on KDE because I get a lot of glitchy artifacts (and Direct Mode seems to be enabled)

    Edit: Using an AMD 6750xt with i5-8600k on Arch Linux with KDE Wayland
