  • Have you tried Envision/Monado on your Index? I have a Vive Pro and the performance is significantly better, albeit you lose controller rebinding feature and OpenVR (games which require SteamVR) compatibility is meh

    • Google finally lets you record phone call audio in the US, but only on the Pixel 9

  • LineageOS too

  • Not all of them. Full scan of hardware is performed only when participating in a survey or requesting a hardware report. An example is Steam on my PC not detecting a SteamVR native headset (goggles icon doesn't appear) until I'll launch VR mode.

    • Bluetooth Audio Issues when launching a game?

    Jump

  • Iirc there's a setting for Wireplumber (in case you're using PipeWire) to disable that behaviour when a BT mic is being picked up

    • So what did it take for you to go to Linux?

  • At first I was tipping my toes in Ubuntu but kept coming back to Windows as I kept running into stability issues. Googling my issues very frequently kept sending me to the Arch wiki, and I thought "well if they have so much covered, why not use this distro instead". That and 196 subreddit (rule) made me try Arch, and my experience was noticeably better. Barely any crashes and improving Proton compatibility made me use it more and more. I kept a windows install for VR and anti-cheat enabled games until late 2023.

    During my transition period (both in Linux and gender lol) between 2021 and now, I kept getting comments "why are you making your life harder with Linux, just use Windows where everything works". Well, nowadays tables have turned and now I get to say "weird it works for me on Linux". Except VR, it's still a mixed experience.

  • I think reusing server/client naming for USB connectivity instead of master/slave would fit it

    • Doom and Doom II get a ‘definitive’ re-release that’s packed with upgrades

    Jump

  • The Quake rerelease still offers the classic GLquake

    • Steam OS beta update fixes the issue that let Jackbox Megapicker corrupt the deck, and other fixes. Also mentions ROG Ally

    Jump

  • If I’m not mistaken Valve said they want to release it for desktops

    • High-end AMD cards still impacted by a major SteamVR bug after over a year

    Jump

  • Yes headsets don't support VRR which is why it's so crucial to get the timing right
