Well, or the power of an opening at the top. We really need more data to confirm.

I've had good experiences with my Nvidia card on Aurora (same basis as e.g. Bazzite), but HDR is indeed still an issue.

Right now, all you have to do is go to the settings of your non-steam game, go to compatibility, and choose a Proton version. I'm not sure if this change will automate it, but it's pretty much as easy as it can be already.

It's the same picture.

There's really no way to do this without making the whole driver source-available, as there's no way to update it to a new Kernel without full source access. That'd be great, but the manufacturers will fight tooth-and-nail against that, especially since the drivers can contain trade secrets.

The APIs are part of the Linux Kernel, so you'd be forcing the Kernel to completely change their development policy of internal breakages being allowed. That's a no-go.

Wat? Producer guy is where it's at!

Can you... can you literally not read?

But if you can't read, how did you read the quoted part?

Please explain how you simultaneously can and cannot read.

 

For the record, the ones we definitely know about are (thanks to the wiki):

  • Macrodata Refinement
  • Optics and Design
  • Wellness Center
  • Mammalians Nurturable
  • Choreography and Merriment

Possibly also departments:

  • Distribution Supply
  • Disposal and Reclamation
 

But alas, he's destined to never receive it.

 

Invincible has a whole host of awesome and unique characters. Who's your favorite, and why?

 

Now that season 2 is over and we've all had some time to let things settle & reflect, what are your predictions for season 3? Do you have any particular ideas about things that will/won't happen? Any wishes or other thoughts?

 

Hey all! @LambdaRX@sh.itjust.works and I wanted to give a quick update on the rules, since we received a couple of questions.

We've tried to clarify rule 3 a bit, now it reads:

3. Don’t spoil people in a way they can’t circumvent - that means no mentions in post titles/comments outside spoiler threads for:

  • comics spoilers about something that hasn’t happened in the show
  • TV show spoilers if it’s been less than a week since the episode aired

As you can see we've shortened the time a bit to allow better discussion after new episodes, and we've clarified how spoilers should be hidden.

What do you guys think? Does this work for everyone, or is something unclear?


A short aside, since this is the first real "moderator" type communication we're putting out - WOW, hard to believe how the community has grown! Already more than 150 subscribers, and almost 500 people visiting last month. Thank you all for being a part of this, and for making the moderation such an easy job. You guys are amazing, we can't thank you enough!

Hey! I'm looking for an alternative to Sync, and Summit looks great.

Unfortunately it defaults to German, and (as is usually the case) the translation isn't great, e.g. the font names are translated (and the translations aren't correct). So I'd like to use English.

But I can't find the setting. I searched for "lang" as well as the German word in the settings, but it seems there's no language selection.

Is there really no way to change your selected language, except for changing your phone language? That would be a bummer.

 

Season 2 Episode 6: Attila

Aired: February 21, 2025

Synopsis: Bonds are tested. Mark continues on his path of discovery.

Directed by: Uta Briesewitz

Written by: Erin Wagoner

 

Since I've seen the episode, I've been thinking about the story he told, and I don't think it's "canonical" like the handbook. I'm almost certain that it's either:

  • a Lumon "fairy tale", either only for use in team building exercises like the ORTBO, or possibly also told outside (did Helena know it?)
  • or a story made by Milchick specifically for our group, possibly AI generated (since "Dieter Eagan" is an anagram for "AI generated")

It felt very much like a scavenger hunt for a child's birthday or something similar, only in corporate form. Milchick thought that he could fulfill the groups desire for "adventure", and thus make them focus on work once more.

What do you think?

 

Let's face it: the app has been abandoned for longer than is acceptable, especially at this price level. It's no longer working correctly on newer Lemmy versions, and there's no indication the dev is still active.

Yes, he worked similarly during Reddit times, but a) Sync was much cheaper back then, and b) Reddit didn't change as much.

Right now, to unsuspecting users Sync seems great given the 4.9 star rating on the Play Store. They'll possibly buy this app before noticing that it's subtly broken.

Please consider giving Sync a bad rating, but if you do so, explain why. Write about the broken functionality, so others don't fall into the same trap.

Amazing episode! But I'm not sure how to feel about this decision yet, guess we'll have to see which theories are correct.

When the short animated movie starts, we clearly see a projector with three separate projection sources, one with a lens for each base color:

Since they are each positioned with a slight offset and angled, the projected pictures can't work well for all distances. The further you get from the actual "perfect" distance, the more the different color channels will be offset visually. And yet, what do we see when Mr. Milchick steps in front of the screen?

Obviously the whole fandom has been intensely discussing multiple theories:

  • Lumon has developed projector technology lightyears ahead of our own
  • Most of the production cost for this season went into growing such a talented child actress, so Apple saved money on set design
  • Mr. Milchick is actually a flat surface that merely looks like a 3D person due to optical trickery

I'm not sure which one I agree with the most. What do you guys think?

 

Freunde, ich wende mich an euch aus tiefster Verzweiflung heraus. Das hier ist keine Werbung, sondern ein Hilfeschrei.

Warum genau schmeckt mir die Tiefkühl-Tonno-Pizza von Dr. Oetker so gut? Was ist da genau drauf? Ich habe endlose TK-Tonnos durchprobiert und selbst viele gemacht, aber irgendwas ist auf der Dr. Oetker-Pizza drauf, das ich nicht reproduziert bekomme. Aber auch nur auf der! Es sind Klekse aus einer undefinierbaren Masse, die mein Ambrosia sind - vermutlich eine Mischung aus Thunfisch-Ersatz und Gewürzen, aber jeder Versuch es zu erforschen hat ins Nichts geführt.

Hat hier jemand Zugriff auf die geheimen Rezepte und wäre bereit für ein kleines bisschen Industriespionage? Meine aktuelle Vermutung geht in Richtung Koks oder Heroin o.Ä., anders kann ich mir meine körperliche und psychische Abhängigkeit nicht erklären - doch der rationale Teil meines Hirns widerspricht vehement, weil man das bestimmt rausschmecken würde.

Versteht jemand, was ich meine? Oder bin ich gefangen in einem sisyphosischen Kreis, verdammt dazu stets zum Supermarkt gehen zu müssen um das High erneut zu erleben?

Falls ihr das lest und die TK-Tonno noch nie probiert habt, bitte ich euch: tut es nicht. Es war schwer genug, die Kommentare von dem einen Reddit-Account durchzulesen, der nur Mal Heroin probieren wollte. Ich möchte für ähnliche Abstürze keine Verantwortung tragen.
