MS is literally back to square one its about damn time.

They're even worse now and aggressively pressure you to use edge if it's not the default.

It depends on the dongle and the DAC inside.
For example, the Meizu HiFi Pro dongle I use sounds better than the headphone jack in my Pixel 4a.

I do know the Apple c-3.5 is the best value. It sounds balanced, has little distortion, and puts out decent power.

If you want the end-all-be-all, the Nexdrive Spectra has a very similar audio chain to the popular Quad Amp LG phones.

Oh wow I didn't know that. I'll have to double check for the states that are relevant for me.

I imagine many people naively install a privacy extension and unknowingly have altered useragents

You can spoof your useragent to appear as chrome. And you should as it makes your browser less "unique"

Idk I really like playing my backups upscaled with high fps with a not shitty controller. I wont buy any more though unless it's in Steam and not with a petty DRM.

I remember being so scared the first time I screwed up my $PATH

Man if it's a state of emergency let the mgr sink with the ship.

It so sad, they probably complied because they needed their jobs.

Personally I don't consider it a con unless rampant. However in many cases they've dumped the projects. It is effort that could have helped along another project.

imo the negative side effect is the wasted effort and the abandonment.

[–] bitwolf@lemmy.one 1 points 6 days ago

Same, I was very sad wheb they gave up in Unity8. I do check in often on the project as I felt it provided a very good mobile experience.

The thing is. Snaps isn't the first controversy.

Canonical, with Ubuntu early on was helping drive things forward, but they reached a point where they started to do things their own way with disregard to the broader ecosystem.

Each time they did this, they cause fragmentation, struggled, and then deferred to the choice the rest of the ecosystem has. The problem with this is that they're not sharing their effort, they're just throwing it away.

They merely doubled down hard on snaps which is the latest controversy.

Snaps have their own advantages, but Canonical owns the store. Which becomes its own stalewort

It's great with navi, its also great at finding businesses, even offline.

Organic has saved my tail a few times in state parks where I didn't have cell service. I tell everyone I know to install it just in case of emergency.

It can be more up to date, or out of date depending on the area. I pair it with Street Complete, which makes it easy to update info, or notifies you information you could provide.

 

I noticed with QPR3, the back gesture in Sync now shows a black screen during the animation.

Could this be fixed? I read it'll become default in Android 15.

I don't know if this is desired, however I personally would appreciate compatibility reports for newly released games.

Since I preordered with early access I can contribute.

System:

CPU: 7800x3d
GPU: 7900xtx Nitro+
Memory: 32gb ddr5 6000mhz
OS: Fedora 38 KDE (Wayland session)
Runtime: Proton Experimental

Game launches flawlessly and remains stable when alt+tab'ing out of the window.

Steam overlay flickers if you open it in game but does function.

Settings:

4k medium, VSync off, no FSR gets me mid 60's fps.

4k medium, VSync off, FSR2 Quality gets me 80fps (with dips into low 70's).

(Default) 4k medium, VSync off, FSR2 with 50% resolution scale. In this configuration I get 100-120fps.

Unfortunately, the game does not have VRR so it locks to the monitors refresh rate (manually set to 120hz in my case).

As such the game does stutter when it dips in frames so you may want to target your 1% lows or avg fps to guarantee a smooth experience.

8/10

At medium the game does look good, although the sprites for fire could be better and have more bloom.

If they add VRR, and steadily work to optimize performance this could easily reach a 10/10.
