I also bought and use this in a terminal and Emacs. I really do feel like it increases legibility at a much smaller font size.

They’re referring to the photonix comments. Which are notorious, and serve as a great example of what happens when you don’t moderate.

This was one of the most annoying things to me switching to Firefox a couple of years ago.

I’ve also been following this bug since switching (back), and have kinetic scroll turned off for the last few years, I somehow got used to linear scrolling – it’s not something that bothers me anymore, but I’ll be happy to switch back now!

Does this work on a Raspberry Pi? Do Wayland compositors work in general with whatever GPU drivers they have?

This is amazing, thank you!

Anyone know if this is one of the first (modern, as in uses a modern engine like Godot) open source games like this where us other kinds of programmers can learn from?

In addition there are also often packages to get hardware acceleration of video working, if you care about saving energy / fan noise there.

I also use krunner but unless I’ve misconfigured it, I wouldn’t call it fast (and it freezes a lot since it runs in the background).

Compared to when I used rofi on hyprland (which was really fast). I’m back on KDE cause of the hyprland toxicity debacle, and honesty the only thing that isn’t fast, customizable, and reliable is the app runner.

Krunner also has a weird quirk where as it loads entries, it will change the currently selected option so when you hit Enter, it will actually not execute the one you want, but instead run “Install <random package from fuzzy search>”

Talking out loud I should probably bind alt+space to back to rofi or try Fuzzel or something

I’m no stranger to DIY nor reverse engineering, so I may still buy it as a winter weekend project.

DIY is difficult because I want real buttons, as well as customizable mini displays (like the Optimus keyboard of Olde)

As long as it shows up as a normal HID keyboard, and the upload protocol is reverse engineered, I’ll be happy.

Maybe I’ll get one and use the return policy to find out.

Oof, this brings back PTSD for a lot of us that have worked with developers like this ☝️

The question was asking if there were any non e2ee text apps.

I actually did already mention, in Wayland you need to coordinate screen locking with the compositor (kwin), otherwise I’d be using swaylock.

VRAM or regular RAM? It doesn’t use that much regular RAM.

I’m specifically looking for something that works with kwin_wayland, this being the KDE instance and all.

I think in terms of actually doing stuff AMD is close in terms of power draw (W/performance) but it’s the little things like going to sleep and while completely idle that the entire MacBook draws so little power that needs to catch up – and that’s not entirely on the processor.

Size and easy to clean (and waterproof) is one, I have a ChefSteps Joule which is app control only, but it is much easier to clean, and much smaller than my old Anova (fits in a drawer with other crap)

Granted it is more annoying to use the app than the controls, but the trade off for us was worth it, if not for everyone.

After this news I switched to using KDE with Karousel, an animation plugin, and a rounded corners plugin (kwin scripts).

I also use a command runner plasmoid to somewhat replicate waybar from shell scripts.

Well you have to state why it wasn’t good. It was incredibly region-dependent, but if you live near one of their endpoints the latency wasn’t noticeable and the quality was great, as it was for me.

In the end I got to play a bunch of games for free, and have an extra controller I still use, so there’s that. They made us whole, at least, after they shut down (I even imported my into the breach save game into Steam with Google takeout after)

There are people reverse engineering the glasses right now (I have a pair):

https://github.com/wheaney/XRLinuxDriver

One of my longshot projects is to convert my framework laptop main board to exactly this. I basically use the glasses a lot more than the screen at this point (it’s more convenient at night before bed)

I installed the beta with this, and I believe this fixed a bunch of flashing while streaming games from a KDE desktop in Wayland when streaming over 120fps using Sunshine (the desktop would flash every now and again, this didnt happen using Hyprland, which I switched back from)

By some definition. They have always been usable to some degree because I think animators or something use Linux commercially on Nvidia, and for gpgpu they are still top class on linux (nothing comes close)

They haven’t always been the best for gaming or desktop (Wayland) use though, since Intel and AMD opened up their drivers.

Arguably in my experience Nvidia has been far less buggy for the last 30+ years on x11, and with this change they may have finally reached parity on Wayland, haven’t tried it myself.
