Epic does have its steamworks alternative called epic online services which provide more or less the same functionality (achievements, p2p networking, anti cheat…) but it’s also completely free, cross store, and cross engine

I heard back than that the open source driver is pretty much just a layer of abstraction and that most actual code runs in the firmware which is proprietary

Update : i’ve been trying doom eternal with raytracing for quite some time now and the performance is excelent. It never drops below 144Hz with all settings maxed out at 1080p. I know that doom is really well optimised so don’t take this as a general review.

It’s not just the cpus. Microsoft has a very broken implementation for sleep. I saw an ltt video talking about it and apperently a microsoft employee was able to reproduce the bug. Don’t know if there’s any news tho

Thanks ! As for your question, no i didn’t follow a specific guide. More like multiple ressources here and there. Here are some of them :

It works. You simply need the kde portal and pipewire installed

Fun fact : waterfox is a thing actually

Yeah mostly because isreal/ Palestine conflict is much older then russia/Ukraine so a lot of things happened. But at it’s very core they both started because of the same claim : russia claimed used to own Ukraine so they want it back. The jews used to own Palestine so they want it back. So if you support Ukraine and isreal you’re just a hypocrite

While you raise valid points I don’t really have a preference actually. I self host many services that all depend on a postgres db and it would be overkill to create an extra database just for seafile it’s also really easy to manage with a nice interface like pgadmin and i found it overall reliable and it can easily scale up and down according to my needs .

However the main reason i didn’t chose MySQL in the first place is simply because i don’t trust oracle for keeping MySQL open-source (i’m actually surprised it stayed open source for so long) postgres has been independent for decades so i know they’re not gonna give me up

I gave up on using it when they dropped postgres support

Pro tip : if you self host use vaultwarden. It’s 100℅ compatible with all bitwarden clients but has many more features and is lighter weight

Isn’t pipewire the wayland of pulseaudio ? (Like pipewire is supposed to modernize pulseaudio just like wayland and x11)

Yep you’re right. Mesa covers almost anything. But streaming and recording, photo and video editing, 3d rendering ai training etc aren’t “specific compute tasks” they represent the vast majority of the market with billions of dollars in revenue. And no the solution isn’t to use another gpu. It’s for AMD to make their software stack actually usable
