@gamingonlinux What a flashback! I think I first played Heroes of Might and Magic from a disk that was glued to the front of a magazine.

Flaky

@gamingonlinux Wondering if this'd be good to get as someone who's never played Tomb Raider as a kid. Most I know of it is that the Serbian rep for Eurovision last year used to be a Tomb Raider modder.

Calicoday :gamedev:

@gamingonlinux At long last, I can find out how Tomb Raider III ends! I should never have given up my PS. ๐Ÿ˜ฟ

Really impressed with #THEFINALS now it works on Linux / Steam Deck.

Won my first solo game. So much fun with the destruction!

@gamingonlinux unfortunately on newer CPUs like AMD Ryzen 7th series that support the AVX-512 instructions, the game crashes upon launch.
The current workaround is to add clearcpuid=304 or clearcpuid=avx512f to the kernel params, which will remove this instructions support and slightly decrease the overall CPU performance. Source: protondb.com It seems that the game has memory issues when using the AVX-512 support.

Nox :verified:

@gamingonlinux unfortunately doesn't work on CPUs with AVX512 support enabled, unless you deactivate the support in kernel parameters.

@gamingonlinux I wonder if it finally fixes apps like wezterm not starting with Wayland (because the Nvidia driver includes some pixel formats from the tegra platform that are invalid outside of it, or some obscure thing like that ๐Ÿ˜…). I'll try :)

Turns out, this is wrong. NVIDIA (for at least the third time now) copy-pasted their changelog from the previous version. Have contacted them for more info.

Me: buys new keyboard as old one was dying, keys flying off and all.

Also me: wants to livestream again, but keyboard is obnoxiously loud in recordings.

Doh. Looking up ways to improve it. Have some squidgy orings on the way to put under the keys. Other suggestions welcome.

@gamingonlinux What an opportunity to advice for one more random niche Linux distro that won't solve your problem!

@gamingonlinux
Is your mic directional in any way?
If so, you can try to minimize the clicky clacky with a simple microphone orientation change.

@gamingonlinux If it's not because valve packaged it wrong, isn't the responsibility for fixing the issues (assuming the issue is with snap itself) on canonical/the snap team?

Norihiori

@gamingonlinux Classic canonical style. Snap ๐Ÿคฃ

@gamingonlinux Hoping Snap works well soon. Flatpak, however, may be overtaking Snap's popularity now, so it might just be discarded altogether.

@gamingonlinux Really wish people would reconsider until we have better support for library-related tooling. The rust packaging story in distros is... not great.

Why are loads of sites reporting on super dubious Steam Deck 2 specification rumours from a single chinese forum post? Come on.

@gamingonlinux
We all know Valve will go straight to the Steam Deck 3 to disprove the counting-related allegations.

Timothy Green

@gamingonlinux ...Because rumor mills are fascinating! Also highly misleading, but people LOVE them!
