The first improvement (Media Foundation by FFMPEG) could be significant. Currently, VALVe generates large shaders to re-render those Media Foundation videos into other free codecs. These shaders can be several gigabytes in size for some games with lengthy videos. With FFMPEG, those videos could be played without being re-encoded as shaders.

TLDR:

• New Media Foundation backend using FFMpeg.
• Initial support for network sessions in DirectPlay.
• New Desktop Control Panel applet.
• Various bug fixes.

Hi!

I made my own inmutable distro using buildroot (https://buildroot.org): https://simplek8s.org

This distro is just an AIO kernel image that will bootstrap everything in RAM. You can mount additional devices for data persistence (for example you can mount your storage in /var).

For example, when someone ask for a command to list files, and another one reply with a command that removes everything.

TLDR; the reviewer is upset because the PSVR2-PC adapter doesn’t come with a Display Port cable, and his Bluetooth adapter is not compatible. So he can’t review the unit on time until he receive both items. 🤷

It’s illegal in Europe to have an opt-out checked by default, must be an opt-in unchecked by default. This is one of the reason that Microsoft has always troubles in Europe about privacy and opt-out services.

Yes, using xrandr in the /etc/sddm.conf (https://man.archlinux.org/man/sddm.conf.5#DisplayCommand=) /usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup.

Hahaha. Common problem with multiscreen with different resolutions. Your laptop screen is below and left of your main display, and X11 renders this black “virtual screen”.

There are multiple solutions:

a) Set your screen resolution and position through KDE Plasma SystemSettings and push the button “apply to SDDM configuration” (I think Plasma 6.0 removed this option, try to find it in the SystemSettings KCM SDDM section).

b) The another solution is the old one. Create a file into /etc/X11/xorg.conf/display.conf with the proper values of position and resolution. Search in a wiki about examples (archlinux wiki?).

c) There is a third one that I used few years ago. SDDM allows you run any command after the screen initialization. So you can exec your xrand command here. Search about /etc/sddm.conf

When you create a filesystem, there is a parameter named as “block percent free”. This parameter should be “5%”, so a 5% of your partition size can only be written by the “root” user.

You can decrease this value or just free some space. You can try to create files or folders as root as well.

#!/usr/bin/env bash

A folder dotfiles as git repository and a dotfiles/install that soft links all configurations into their places.

Two files, ~/.zshrc (without secrets, could be shared) and another for secrets (sourced by .zshrc if exist secrets).

localhost

• Factorio (currently best management)
• Satisfactory (cozy Factorio)
• Captain of Industry (try this one)

Maybe this functionality was replaced by the next thing?

Automatic root filesystem soft-reboot: systemctl automatically reboots into a new root filesystem located at /run/nextroot/.

A full price release for the first milestone, and because it is a Kickstarter, without any guarantee. I’m sure that the Patapon fans will be happy, at least.
