Same here. It started happening after SteamOS 3.7 update. People say Decky Recorder plugin from Decky Loader works well, but I didn’t bother to try myself.

Ah, JavaScript…

Those are environment variables. To use them you need to add %command% after them in games’ launch options (e.g. PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1 %command%).

Hi.

The same issue is present with OBS flatpak on newer distros. Apparently, v4l2loopback was recently updated and latest OBS does not work with it. I think I read somewhere that version 31.1 should fix this.

What you are referring to are the window decorations.

Apart from Linux Mint, Firefox almost always uses client-side decorations. What you are showing here is still client-side.

It is just that Mozilla recently enabled vertical tabs option for everyone, so the top bar is now slightly smaller than before. You can disable vertical tabs easily by searching in the settings.

Wow, didn’t know this existed. Thanks a lot!

You need a direct line of sight with satellites for GPS to work.

Of course, this is almost impossible indoors. Here’s how network location works to my understanding:

Another person outdoors uses GPS to locate themselves. This person has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enabled and their device can see your home/office network. Google and Apple save this information to their databases. When you request your location indoors, your device sends Wi-Fi information of nearby access points. The servers know approximate location of this Wi-Fi network and can give you your approximate location, though with a large margin of error.

The thing that help you navigate inside buildings is called “Network Location”.

Google and Apple provide this functionality by collecting Wi-Fi and Bluetooth network data from all their users and creating a massive database.

By default, “Network Location” is disabled in GrapheneOS. If you have Google Play Services installed, you can use Google’s Network Location service by enabling those options.

Fortunately, GrapheneOS provides an alternative using Apple’s network location services. There is an option to use GrapheneOS proxy server instead of connecting directly to Apple. Of course, whether you use this feature should entirely depend on how much you trust GrapheneOS developers. This one works using just Wi-Fi data and I use it daily.

Love how Remedy’s game styles is right up my alley. I really hope somewhat niche nature of these games does not deter their success.

Don’t be afraid of using the commandline!

It might look like you are citing magical words to your computer at first. But, since Linux is extremely modular and has endless flavors, that’s one thing tutorial makers can expect everyone to have in common.

Ubuntu (and Kubuntu, which is just Ubuntu with KDE Plasma desktop environment instead of Gnome) and Linux Mint (based on Ubuntu, but with a different desktop environment) are all derivatives of Debian. Almost anything intended for Debian will work on both.

You can install Proton VPN just be copying and pasting the commands in their official tutorial.

Updates are handled similar to Windows, while not being intrusive. You will be safe updating only when the OS notifies you about it.

Side note: since you’ll be using a laptop, you’ll most likely use display scaling. Unless it has a very high resolution display where using 2x scaling is okay, you will want to use a fractional scaling factor. Linux Mint uses an older display technology (for stability purposes) that does not do that very well. So, I recommend going forward with a distribution with KDE Plasma desktop. That one has the best fractional scaling experience so far and Kubuntu has it.

Are you using Gnome? (Workstation)

Also, though unrelated to your issue, DXVK_FRAME_RATE only works with DXVK (DirectX 11). RDR2 will use VKD3D (DirectX 12) or Vulkan natively.

It really bothers me how Immich Android app is not usable without the server

Some devices provide a hardware level interface for it. It is the case for my ThinkPad T14s and the limiting persists even when changing operating systems.

Some other devices don’t, and the limiting only works while the OS is running. That’s how my previous laptop from ASUS was.

I am using OBS Game Capture plugin and it works perfectly on Wayland. I have yet try it with Wine Wayland, though.

I thought Pop!_OS used systemd-boot, no?

What would be the use case for each container getting its own VM?

Finally getting to play Hollow Knight: Silksong

I believe Podman uses a Fedora CoreOS VM. How does that compare?

I don’t think Alan Wake II will ever come to Steam. It is published by Epic Games.
