28·2 months agoAn eon ago they made a PC building guide that was riddled with mistakes and had to pull it down again and I think that’s still where most of that comes from.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•PC Gamer: "I'm brave enough to say it: Linux is good now, and if you want to feel like you actually own your PC, make 2026 the year of Linux on (your) desktop"English
7·2 months agoI’m using a QD-OLED monitor and love HDR for movies or tv shows but with gaming I have several gripes that don’t make me enjoy HDR as much, funnily none of them caused by Linux.
A lot of games suffer from pretty terrible HDR implementations so it might just end up looking worse than SDR. Additionally, at least on this display tech, HDR is a trade-off between stable brightness (TrueBlack mode) or peak brightness (Peak mode). I find TB mode to not really pop enough to justify HDR, but peak mode to be too distracting for gaming since turning your camera can quickly change the overall brightness and make the image flicker.
I would say in theory HDR could be a huge increase in immersion for gaming but the tech and execution isn’t really there for me yet.
HDR support on Linux though I find is in a pretty good spot if you’re not opposed to setting a few env variables.
I like (hate) how in the other version people are claiming that it’s not sexist but in this one suddenly people are confused who’s supposed to be the one who’s wrong.

Games@lemmy.world•Linux gamers on Steam finally cross over the 3% markEnglish
4·4 months agoA lot of games received their ports during the Steam Machine era, used outdated technologies like DirectX to OpenGL translation, and never got updated, so it’s not surprising unfortunately.
You will also most likely still make that difference back over the cycle of one console generation through better game deals and no subscription fees for online play.

Technology@lemmy.world•Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest UpdateEnglish
19·5 months agoAnd that’s honestly all that’s needed, the official translations are usually perfectly fine. The elaborate typesetting is what makes the fansubs so good.
It is very stable and I like that when an update breaks it fails to build rather than failing down the road during runtime, but I never quite got the hang of running
-9999packages (Gentoo’s-gitequivalent), which I like running on Arch. Also in general getting new updates quicker and just having a bigger library of packages and the AUR available, since it was kinda getting old coming across software I use or wanna use that has no ebuild available and having to make my own.
I mained it for a year but not all beauty is worth pain.
