  • Just go to youtube and lookup videos of programmer youtubers. Everything revolves around "FAANG". Facebook, Amazon, Air-bnb, netflix and google. They would drown a puppy to be able to work at these places. I don't get it as it honestly seems very boring and stressful to me.

    Edit: just curious why people are downvoting me. I cant honestly see where i was wrong. A lot of programmers i see would love to work for these corporations. Some purely make videos about preparing for interviews for these specific companies. Or is it because i said it seemed boring?

  • I am not gonna lie... Hardware video acceleration on Linux has traumatized me so much. I have spend soooooo much time over the years dealing with this shit. I has gotten better, i admit. But before you had to make sure all the stars aligned perfectly to make this shit work properly. Hell, even last week i found out that hardware video acceleration did not seem to work on twitch.tv on my firefox browser. After 2 days of reinstalling my Linux distro, drivers, many different ways of running firefox such as the rpm version, flatpak etc. I found out opensuse removed the mesa drivers that included the codecs i needed... i found out about it through some old reddit post comment with 2 upvotes... Even now i am having issues with running sunshine streaming. And it drives me insane because it SHOULD work. But it doesn't. It could be the flatpak not having correct access. It could be the driver. It could be wayland. I don't even know anymore... it just refuses to find available codecs. Then i tried steam remote play instead. And it streams... a black screen with only my cursor showing.

    I don't know anymore. I don't care anymore.

    Oh another fun one is geforce now. On Linux if you use hardware acceleration, a certain part of the grey/black color spectrum is missing from the video stream. So games are quite darker and it makes games like dead by daylight completely unplayable as most dark spots are completely black. If you run it without hardware acceleration it works fine... but then you get very bad lag, stuttering and slowmotion at higher bitrate. So that is also unplayable.

    Hardware video acceleration on Linux is a disaster and really deserves more attention. Every now and then it works and then something updates and everything is broken again. I currently just dual boot because i use sunshine and geforce now a lot.

    Sorry for the long rant. I didn't know i typed this much. But it honestly really deserves some attention as it can really mess up the users experience. Often without their knowledge.

  • All the people returning and forgetting what reddit did and will continue to do. Then the next time reddit messes up, they will come back. 😔

    Edit: other stats seem pretty good though! Unless i am misunderstanding them.

  • This is actually a good thing! Let them all bundle up together and maybe they can fund and start his little society on mars and he can take all the right wing cunts with him. Then they can go cry about women and minorities together without bothering the rest of us.

  • This update also adds support for Ubisoft+ linking, and in both cases it speeds up the process by letting you avoid inputting credentials when you want to play.

    They say it supports auto login and then the screenshot under that says "Automatic sign-in unsupported". 🤦🏻

  • Cope, says the person living in their own head because facts scare them.

    I can't believe we have all the information of the world at our fingertips. So much knowledge. And yet people like you walk around screeching and eating their own boogers.

    Here, i googled it for you so you don't have to use up all the energy in those 3 braincells bouncing around in that head of yours.
