Many mods were made way easier with a recent Proton update. Lots of games use DLL overrides to load mods, which required setting launch commands to use through Proton. This is no longer an issue, so any mods that work by doing this will now function perfectly out of the box.

I recently nodded GTA and the mod had specific instructions for Linux, which I was able to simply ignore thanks to this update.

Most games that use the Nexus mod manager can also be nodded manually, but I do agree that having a native launcher is really nice. I've already used it with Cyberpunk. Hopefully native Mod Organizer 2 will happen one day!

It is important to understand the context of a word. Many words and phrases have racist origins, including many words you likely use without knowing. Meanings change, and that's not a bad thing. If people hurt by the term pushed for it to stop being used, I would of course respect this. I have never seen who could be targeted with the term be offended by its usage in the Linux community.

Currently, the majority of people who talk about Linux customization call it "ricing", and none of them are doing it with ill intent. Look at the replies to your comment, most of them didn't even know this until you brought it up. What is the point in holding onto the negative history of a word that is no longer used in that way?

Cosmic is really great if you want tiling similar to Hyprland or Sway without so much work. I used i3 then Hyprland for years, but have now been using Cosmic for months. Its the only DE that correctly does a tiling workflow imo, even considering extensions.

The problems with preconfigured configs is that they often aren't very dynamic, as in they don't adapt well to other PCs. Many of them will use stuff like CSS for widgets and bars that have stuff like specific pixel sizes, meaning you'll often gave to make changes.

Hyprland has some premade configurations on their wiki if you'd like to try them. I've never tried one, if you do, let me know how it goes!

Another thing to remember is a lot of the stuff you take for granted in a DE don't exist in a WM. Things like autostarts, envvars, background services, etc don't work the same. Hyprland devs created UWSM which will help with all of this.

Btw, their Mastodon account has more followers than their Bluesky and Threads accounts combined, both of which they are keeping. What a stupid decision.

This game was available before the AI boom, so it makes sense they chose to call it procedurally generated.

I used to play this game a lot a few years ago before the player base got too small. It was a blast then and it seems to have only gotten better. I'll definitely be giving it another try this week.

tbf, Wayland was hardly relevant for some of that. the first feature request I found was 4 years go. implementing it also required upgrading electron a few versions, so a decent bit of work.

8BitDo ultimate with hall effect joysticks. Great value and works perfectly.

I've never used Findroid, but they work on my regular Jellyfin app. I think on Roku transcoding is required, but afaik that's on Roku not supporting the subtitle format.

I now extract all my subs, but for the first 2 years using it I left everything embedded and it always worked normally. Even with some advanced ones like Jujutsu Kaisen and One Pace, which both use stylized ones.

Discord didn't take very long to add it at all, what took a long time was fixing audio streaming.

Yes. You set hardware encoding to QSV, then you're mostly set. You can choose which formats it should work on, which for an Arc card will probably be all of them. I got an Arc A380 and its worked flawlessly with many streams at once.

Fair enough, not saying you should bother with it, just surprised to hear it happening.

I genuinely do not understand the issues people are having with Jellyfin subtitles. I just have Bazarr set up to automatically download and they play on every device (web, android, iOS, roku, android TV) with zero issues.

Embedded subtitles definitely work, and I've used bitmap ones before, although I generally avoid them so I'm not sure if they consistently work well. Directly playback also does work with those subtitles, so if you had issues it was likely related to codec support.

This is Wayland specific. Wayland does not allow unfocused applications to intercept keyboard shortcuts for security purposes, so this is how they must be implemented.

I prefer PARA, which I implement some ideas of Zettelkasten into. Logseq sadly couldn't do this well. It also just sadly lacks a lot of plugins and features I need/really want. Logseq is great, but so is Obsidian.

They have a plenty large enough user base and have not done so. You're literally commenting this on a post of them doing the exact opposite. The fear mongering is insane.

Why would they offer another sync option when the Sync subscription is the one thing you make money on? You could easily just put the notes in your iCloud or any other cloud service.

Its a directory, they were just referring to individual files.
