Flaky

Cyberpunk 2077 worked for me in a similar fashion, even on Linux funnily enough.

AFAIK, HDR was theorised to have been disabled due to problems on AMD GPUs, as said by a third-party driver developer (iVRy). They also said that issues with USB communication was why they weren’t able to do it properly either with the adapter having a more direct connection. The adapter should be able to support it when SteamVR is updated, so hopefully Sony releases firmware updates for it.

I love my PSVR2, but I won’t lie, the Quest 3 is more competitive. To get the most out of your PSVR2 before the adapter comes out (which is 2 months), you’ll need a PS5 which is about £300-500. If you’re strapped for cash, it’s going to be a hard sell to get them together whereas you can buy a Quest 2 or even the third one for much cheaper right now, with the PC support both in wired and wireless mode (Steam Link supports VR games on the recent Quest lineup)

That being said, if you hate Facebook more than you hate Sony and you already have a PS5 and know what games you want for it, fuck it - go get it. It’s a solid headset. Go get No Man’s Sky too for it, as a recommendation. It’s a brilliant game in VR if you’re into space exploration.

Oh I know Lunduke. Used to enjoy his Linux Sucks speeches before he went a bit down the deeper end. That being said, I don’t think said friend is really in-tune with that sort of politics in the Linux community, so I don’t know if that’s the case. It’s probably the fact Chris uses Arch as a main OS, while my friend tried it, hated it then used Fedora tbh.

I’ve had issues with iwlwifi just panicking but I think that’s just Intel being a bit shit, to be honest. Everything else - even the RGB on my system - works perfectly fine.

I think the bigger issue is software support. Even the “Linux desktop” is good. But if people prefer an app that’s exclusive to Windows or Mac, and the native alternatives aren’t cutting it for them, then adoption will become an issue for them. I’m in that camp because of MusicBee, it has these random bouts of lag on WINE that does not exist on Windows and has font redirection problems, so I’m stuck to Windows until WINE improves (though I have considered becoming a maintainer on WineHQ for that…)

Don’t know anything about Chris Titus Tech as a person (friend of mine says he’s a bit crazy but that’s it I guess?), but they probably see negativity about Linux and downvote. The title seems to be bad at explaining the video too.

(For those who don’t want to watch, Chris basically explains the issues he’s had with Linux for video production, and why his set-up is the way it is.)

This. Sounds similar to a problem I had on my Intel chip (AX210) though I found out iwlwifi was panicking using dmesg. Probably would’ve been easier to use journalctl.

Probably not for a few versions, I’m afraid, though vertical tabs (which was part of the feature set they wanted to add) is already in nightly so it’s worth giving that a test every now and again in case tab groups make it.

Ubuntu in the early 2010s, with GNOME 2 and Compiz. The Compiz era of desktops was real fun and I’d love for that to come back with a vengeance. MATE is working on Wayland support with Wayfire (essentially like Compiz but for Wayland) as the compositor AFAIK, so it might very well come back and be improved (apparently the Compiz codebase is… not great?)

I should give the immutable distros a try when I’m not reliant on VMware. Though all that said, I’ve been using Fedora KDE Spin lately, and it hasn’t really been a problem either.
