Cool.

But the reason you’re being downvoted, is that instead of commenting this, you made a comment that sounded like you were dismissing the dangers of PFAS, and dismissing it as the modern-day equivalent to lead, asbestos, and the like.

Which is what it is, and you clearly agree that it is.

Maybe lead with that, instead of the conspiracy angle.

Did you at some point read about how some of them, such as the ones used in frying pans, are unlikely to cause problems in the human body, and then completely stopped looking into it further?

It’s a massive group of compounds, some of which currently look to be quite safe, but a significant number of which also have fully verified dangers (especially some compounds required for production).

Obviously. It too does wine environment management. But it’s meant for games, and for wine specifically, Bottles is just nicer.

Lutris is massive overkill if you just want run the windows version of python in order to compile python code to windows binaries. Not to mention it just isn’t as slick in terms of UX as a wine manager.

It’s not a catch-all game launcher.

It’s a wine environment manager. And it is becoming increasingly good at simplying the complexity of setting up wine bottles for different things.

It’s basically winetricks on steroids, with a really nice GUI to boot.

Running windows games is just one use-case.

It is. Along with PFAS.

I dunno man.

It’s not like linux applications ever have different app-names in the menu, when compared to the package name you just saw when installing it.

That has never tripped me up. No. Never.

/S

It’s probably time based.

And this kind of thing isn’t for the type of people who mess with settings. If this defaulted to off, then it would actually be useless.

Yeah. Plus they immediately got a reply from someone showing where you can turn it off in settings.

Textbook tsundere, yes.

All the definition really requires, is that the character act hostile, but does so without being genuine or intentional, and is able to be their real loving self in certain circumstances or with time.

Audio devices can have multiple modes or “profiles” that determine what they do.

For my headset I have:

For my internal sound card I have:

If I set my headset to one of the options that doesn’t have “+ Mono Input” the mic stops working and doesn’t even show up in settings and apps anymore. Same if I use the “Stereo Output” mode on my internal sound card. They must be set to a mode with both output and input enabled to work.

I can see this from “Sound” in my KDE settings, but you can also configure this in the “Configuration” tab of pavucontrol.

Tekken 3 is a PS one game, not PS2.

It has no PC version. Any such thing is just the PS one version with an emulation wrapper.

You definitely seem to have what looks to be the right audio device getting detected.

The device that is “unplugged” should be the 3.5mm jack on your laptop (if you have one) not the internal mic.

My first guess is that your audio device is in the wrong mode. If it is currently set to something like “stereo output” change it to “stereo output+mono input” or “stereo duplex” from pavucontrol or audio settings.

Jokes aside, damn thatssa a pretty planet

The content isn’t gone.

It’s still retained by the various instances that lemm.ee federated with, and entering the url of a lemm.ee post on those instances should still let you find their local copies if they have it.

intel-undervolt/amdctl for cpu, lact for amd gpu, gwe for nvidia gpu (although voltage control on linux with nvidia is not possible, you can get a similar result by overclocking+limiting power)

Undervolting is great on gaming laptops. Usually nets you a performance boost simply by reducing thermal throttling.

Even just a few mV has made a difference for me.

That’s unfortunate. It has been working really well together with Audiobookshelf.

They mean other platforms like GOG or Epic, not stuff like consoles.

Steam games mostly work, with some exceptions. You can check out ProtonDB to see more precisely what games work, which ones straight up don’t, and which ones need a fix. ProtonDB will usually also tell you what that fix is, which is handy.

But most of the time, you can just hit play and not worry about it.

A note on dualbooting. Linux uses different filesystems from windows. It can access windows NTFS partitions, but it’s not a smooth experience.

A common pitfall is trying use your game library while it is still on a windows filesystem, from linux. Since you can see the folders, and even add them in steam, it’ll seem like it should work. But you’ll run into issues actually running the games. It’s technically possible, but not worth the hassle.

Generally you really want to either format your storage and redownload your games, or if you have the space, copy them over to a fully supported file system.

One is integrated into the system and the other is not?

What system? The DE?

A linux desktop install is a system of systems. Almost none of which are essential, all of which are interchangeable with other versions and options.

The nextcloud desktop client honestly integrates with “the filesystem” much more closely than the Online Account functionality of KDE. Is it part of “the distro”?

Steam is not integrated. At all.

Really? Even on Bazzite, the distro that can replace SteamOS and all its handheld console functionality?

Steam is basically an entire DE in gaming mode.
