Maybe I wouldn’t, but I would definitely complain if this was a very new feature available in higher end GPUs.
DX12 is also software, it’s easily update able and modern hardware supports it.
But in the end I don’t give a fuck, since I just won’t play doom then.
In a doom game ray tracing should not be used for registering hits, since most if not all of the projectiles are visible and fly slower than light.
Yes, but the tech has not advanced that much since then. Also the game probably doesn’t look twice as good.
Tbh. the game needing 8 cores is the most outrageous of the list, but the ray tracing is a close second, since that could easily be toggleable.
I’ll chime in for the other commenter.
Having ray tracing be “a minimum requirement” is batshit insane. Just make it an option and don’t require it for everyone.
Ray tracing is not that widely available, so you shouldn’t just force it onto your whole player base.
And while this might not sound like an optimization thing, it really looks like they couldn’t be bothered to develop their game with and without the ray tracing features.
Edit: looking more into the numbers, they are all insane.
I don’t really play AAA titles nowadays, but this is aweful and far from optimized. Doom 2016 needed half of that for every single metric!
Cinnamon is available under arch too and it’s relatively easy, getting a package into aur.
So you say “programs like Trilium”. Have you looked at Joplin?
Joplin comes with OCR albeit for search only. I myself have not tried it yet, but Joplin itself is a great note app.
Also Joplin seems to have an in development plugin for extracting text via OCR.
Maybe you can then export it to Trilium, if this a one time thing.
But it actually is mostly the developers fault. There are weird corner cases, yes. But all game engines natively support Linux and even games that are not made for Linux will run there via Proton nearly always.
Exceptions are 95+% of the time due to anti cheat and like 2% due to a self written engine, that does exceptionally cursed stuff even for windows.
I play lots of games regularly that were never meant to be played on Linux but work flawlessly without the developer or “contributors on ProtonDB” (whatever they have to do with that) doing anything.
Okay, your post is a bit weird, so I’ll just tell you about my setup:
I have a custom built PC for like 4 or 5 years and have Linux on there permanently for at least 2.
It has an AMD Ryzen 7 (AM4) CPU and a Nvidia 2060 Super.
I often tried new distros before the final switch. In the end I chose PopOS. For me it mostly just works.
All the core features are effectively bugless.
Games sometimes don’t work or need a little tweak in steam, but that is like one game out of 20.
BUT:
I don’t play AAA games. Like ever. I played Darktide for a month maybe and “Witcher 3” butthis is the closest I got to “real” AAA games in the last 5 years.
Indie Games nearly always “just work”.
Few examples from the last months:
They all ran fine. The one Issue I had was that steam didn’t show this DirectX-Popup and I thought the games didn’t start. But after that it all just worked.
Also sometimes mods are hard. This is mostly for games I didn’t buy on steam and that have weird community-built mod managers.
I habe another “magically solved itself” story with solution.
When I leave my PC on for a long time without needing to access it, e.g. to make a backup or some long updates, I always lock it. This ensures that the monitor turns itself off.
Or so I thought. Mostly I would only look at it, when accessing it again, since it faces away from the door. Then the screen was off.
But sometimes when I didn’t want to use it, the screen was on. This really bothered me for a long time. When I wanted to use it, the screen was off and when I didn’t, the screen was on.
Some day it just stopped happening. The screen was always off.
Just last week I found out why this all happened.
It was my phone. I have my mouse on the left side and always place my phone to the right. Except when not sitting at the desk. Then I put the phone on the left side which faces away from the wall. There it slightly shook the mouse thus activating the screen and gaslighting me. Last month I thoroughly cleaned my desk and now I don’t have to place the phone on my mousepad anymore.
That WordPress article is a one-sided mess and they should really pull back from what they did. That has nothing to do with open source. They fucked over many of their users just to spite a single firm (which were in their right).
Now I don’t want to defend a for profit company that doesn’t contribute much to open source, but the public meltdown that the CEO of Automattic had was more than embarrassing.
We host a small Matrix-server. The server is for 4 people but barely uses the 2 cores 4GB RAM.
Storage is mostly media, but stayed under 100GB in about 3 years.
We also host a web frontend and use Schildichat as app, but Element X could be better nowadays. Both also have a desktop client.
A big plus are all the bridges.
My girlfriend uses WhatsApp, no problemo, there is a bridge for that. That one club only has a signal group? Use the bridge.
One of us uses Fb-Messenger via a bridge. Telegram also works and there are lots more.
The server is also low maintenance. It’s an ansible playbook, that I irregularly run.
It takes around an hour twice a year due to changes in the playbook.
Also matrix is feature rich beyond your requests. I don’t know much about the others, but matrix had emoji-reactions before WhatsApp and has threads inside of chatrooms and spaces which are collections of chats for common topics.
Also polls, sharing current/live location (not bridged to WA), voice messages and stickers.
Look at the numbers please:
In 2020 Biden had 81,284,666 votes.
In 2024 Kamala had 69,218,912 votes.
That is a difference of around 12 Million votes or nearly 15%. Trump at the same time gained only like 750k votes. I mean yes, he somehow GAINED votes, but still…
What is your supposed reason for those numbers?
This looks very good. I have never thought about a TUI/CLI for my *arrs, but I will give it a try.
If this works out for me, do you also seek contributions?
Tell me, did you at least hear a whoosh?
Yes. You are also needed.
What does this have to do with Linux?
Okay, I cannot really help you with that, because getting Nvidia to run is hard and especially for docker it will most likely not be supported out of the box. You will probably have to install the docker drivers yourself and hope that it works. Sorry, I have an Nvidia card myself and it sucks.
Secondly: Next time be more specific with what you want, what your hardware is and what you want to do with it, because most people (like me) could not really understand, what you meant with your initial text.
