Sorry I can't do it.
  • Ah okay then. As user Russ said above it's gotta be Nvidia drivers are still in beta with the fix from Nvidia side. I'm using an AMD card as well for this exact same reason. Wayland runs great on team red!

  • Sorry I can't do it.
  • KDE 6.1 just hit Arch repos like 3 days ago. You're likely on 6.0.5. Switching between X11 and Wayland is effortless just change the default manager in SDDM settings.

  • Sorry I can't do it.
  • The flickering thing is because you're using Wayland and Nvidia GPU. If you switched to X11 (losing HDR support, unfortunately), the flickering goes away. However! I would recommend updating your system to KDE 6.1, which I believe has the explicit sync fix.

  • I just think people have had the left vs right shit drilled into their heads by cable news and social media. Any attack on team blue is attack on them because it's them or team red. Anarchy is nuanced, and foreign to the left vs right debacle.

    A lot of the fault goes straight to Fox News who basically pioneered this new world. GOD DAMN LIBERALS ARE COMING FOR YOU!!! Twenty years of this. And it was successful! News orgs are most interested in profit and keeping this left vs right debate going is profitable.

  • I Will Fucking Piledrive You If You Mention AI Again — Ludicity
  • Oh my god this whole post is amazing, thought I'd share my favorite excerpt:

    This entire class of person is, to put it simply, abhorrent to right-thinking people. They're an embarrassment to people that are actually making advances in the field, a disgrace to people that know how to sensibly use technology to improve the world, and are also a bunch of tedious know-nothing bastards that should be thrown into Thought Leader Jail until they've learned their lesson, a prison I'm fundraising for. Every morning, a figure in a dark hood7, whose voice rasps like the etching of a tombstone, spends sixty minutes giving a TedX talk to the jailed managers about how the institution is revolutionizing corporal punishment, and then reveals that the innovation is, as it has been every day, kicking you in the stomach very hard.

    Where the fuck do I donate???????

  • Removed
    wayland was a mistake
  • HDR alone is worth it. Going from Wayland to X11 makes my screen look like shit. Cannot ever go back.

  • Israel Has Used White Phosphorus on 17 Towns in Lebanon Since October
  • Very well put. I think the only way out of this, post war, is for a Palestinian state to exist. Proper UN membership. The only way this is going to happen is if Hamas goes. Hamas must die. Israel is using every excuse they can to prolong this war and Hamas is giving them plenty of excuses. Everybody sucks here except the civilians who are hopelessly trapped.

  • The lemmy.ml Problem
  • They banned the Plex mod, who was doing good work, for basically nothing as far as I can tell. Effectively killed the community. Rest in peace BrooklynMan

  • Microsoft to test “new features and more” for aging, stubbornly popular Windows 10
  • I was a late switcher as I had to wait for gaming support. Once I saw what the steam deck was doing and how amazing proton is, I pulled the trigger. It gets better all the time too, sounds like Nvidia users are finally gonna be getting proper Wayland in like less than a month too! It's been so smooth I was able to convince my wife to use it too. She LOVES Minecraft and after I showed her Prism Launcher she was sold.

  • Biden: ‘every reason’ to believe Netanyahu is prolonging Gaza war for political gain
  • Elimination and illegalization of Zionism? I'm not a Zionist by any stretch, but this is terrible thinking. You're gonna kill and arrest people for ideas in their head? My god, no thanks.

  • Windows feature that screenshots everything labeled a security “disaster”
  • Even if it was 100% offline. For how long? Microsoft can change that with a patch at any time. Suddenly all your personal files are being fed into GPT with no consent.

  • Can You Use Linux Without the Terminal? (How to Geek article)
  • I find the documentation to be very good for Arch based distros. The EOS forums or Archlinux.org wiki almost always has what I need. Otherwise the github page usually has Arch install directions that are very clear. The major things I've had to do in terminal is just initial set up of applications, enabling things to run on startup or changing configs. For example, and this is the most complicated example I can think of. I use grub-btrfs to put my Timeshift snapshots into the grub menu. All I really had to do was 3 commands:

    sudo systemctl start grub-btrfsd

    sudo systemctl enable grub-btrfsd

    sudo systemctl edit --full grub-btrfsd

    The first two commands start the daemon and set it to run on start up, the 3rd command is editing the config so I could use Timeshift over Snapper. Again this is the most complicated example I can think of and its 3 lines. Not only that but I was able to find documentation on two different sites. In under a minute of googling.

  • Can You Use Linux Without the Terminal? (How to Geek article)
  • I am a gui only user. AMA. I have to use command line occasionally but it's less than once a month, if that. Im on EndeavourOS desktop for over 2 years with Bauh managing updates. My home server runs Unraid with a web GUI interface maybe used CLI twice in 5 years? They told me Linux could be what I wanted it to be. I don't want to use command line, so I don't!

  • TikTok sues U.S. government, says ban violates First Amendment
  • I think it's pretty clear the ban will be overturned. Congress just attached it to Ukraine aid because it was popular enough and they could ram Ukraine and Israel aid thru. The Supreme Court ruled in 1965 that Chinese propaganda is protected speech 8-0, in the middle of the red scare. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamont_v._Postmaster_General

    If they want to truly go after tiktok we're gonna need data privacy bills and oversight that affects ALL social media platforms. Congress isn't serious about fixing issues. This isn't a serious ban. They just want sound bytes to play back home.

  • Remedy on Alan Wake 2 on steam, "That is also speculation at the moment Alan Wake 2 is available at the Epic Games Store and we hope PC gamers will find it there."
  • I'm with you. I have very limited time for games these days, and if it's not on Steam it might as well not exist. I really could not care less about these corps complaining about Steams cut. You want my money? Come to me!

  • protect yourself rule
  • What this study shows is that a gun is likely the first choice of gun owners who are trying to kill themselves. It cannot determine how much less likely they would have been to kill themselves had they not owned a gun, if at all.

    I wonder how many people choose other methods of suicide (Hanging/Drug OD) when they had a gun available.

  • Could the Federation defeat Star Wars' Empire in an all-out war?
  • 100% Empire. Star Wars ships with hyper drivers are so much faster than Warp Drives. It takes the Millennium Falcon hours or a day to get across the galaxy. It takes Voyager 80+ years. It takes weeks to traverse the Federation alone. If the Empire was completely out classed in combat by Federation technology, and that's a big if, the Empire would have zero issues just glassing every planet while the Federation would take days to respond.

  • Despite Microsoft's push, Windows 11 and Edge see decreases in user share
  • I am also a recovering microsimp. I even bought a god damn Windows Phone 7 at launch. Metro UI had such promise!
