Well, issues 1-3 could all easily be GPU driver related. Which GPU are you using, and what drivers?
The Steam UI thing sounds like an issue like maybe hardware acceleration being disabled?
Then you wouldn't notice all the fun and exciting recommendations they have for you! /s
Wow. Linux performance is better in Cyberpunk, even though it is running via proton. How does the article not mention that...?
They generally have really great linux support for all of their hardware (touchpads, fingerprint readers, etc.), and provide bios updates via fwdup. They are also just nice laptops.
Well, we can't have felons voting. They should only be allowed to run for president!
So, a dark pattern is a design that tries to trick the user into something. But what is the word for "knowing what the user wants, blatantly ignoring it and imposing the companies will anyway"?
Example: I think YouTube shorts are a terrible format, and I find them generally irritating. So I click the X on the element in YouTube that has a bunch of side scrolling cards, where each card is one of these shorts. YouTube informs me it will hide them for 30 days and then they'll be back.
Another example, Windows Update. I've set all the group policy settings so it should never restart and update without me triggering it. But, if I allow it to download the update, then damn my group policy settings, it is going to apply that update and restart whenever it wants.
It's so ridiculous that this isn't even brought up:
The Command you provided worked fine. Thank you so much for the help! Really appreciated! We are going to proceed to make a release today and test with customers. Will post the updates here.
Gotta love being a forced beta tester... I mean customer.
A cryptocurrency miner. It uses your computer to generate currency, which costs you resources (electricity, compute power, etc.).
Some of that seems unnecessary (device boot time). But it's not all scary spooky tracking. Some permissions/information is required for certain features.
For example, you can't rotate your app UI if you're not allowed to know screen orientation. Or maybe they do a low power mode if device battery is low, or a warning that the app might not function well if the OS or device is old.
Not saying you're wrong or that Discord is right. Just pointing out that a long list of permissions isn't on its own a bad thing, if those permissions are required for specific features, and not just for the sake of data harvesting.
A 30h+ take home that doesn't even reflect what you all do is a waste of everyone's time. I'd think most qualified applicants are going to ghost you when they are tasked with that. You have to keep in mind you're not the only place they're applying. Are you sure you want the engineer who has time for a 30h+ coding challenge for a potential job, that might then make a competitive offer?

Any system logs that might be related to the display not being detected properly?
Since you're using AMD graphics, you're using the open source drivers right? The proprietary AMD drivers are not good.
