    This Week in Gnome #187 Triple Buffered Notifications | Triple Buffering Merged for Gnome 48

  • Thanks. For normal desktop usage this sounds great (for games the input lag might be bad but that depends on whether there's always input lag and how much), I'm curious what it'll be like in practice.

    This Week in Gnome #187 Triple Buffered Notifications | Triple Buffering Merged for Gnome 48

    Jump

  • What's the big deal with triple buffering anyway? Like, what exactly is it and what does it solve?

  • FYI - Graphene OS has biometrics with pin

    Jump

  • I use biometrics for unlock too. If you click "Lockdown" in the power menu or just hold down the power button until your phone restarts (it should vibrate, so you can even do this while it's still in your pocket), it requires the PIN again in order to be able to unlock it.

  • Whatever happened to Antifa?

  • In Germany they're very much still using Antifa like that

  • What this person told you was wrong, you need to use flatpak run [package id] to run flatpak apps. You can do flatpak list to see all installed flatpaks with their ids. An id looks something like org.example.app and you'd run it with flatpak run org.example.app.

    Also, is it shown as being installed in Discover? If it's not you could try just installing it again and if it is, you can try uninstalling it first. The user data for Firefox should stay intact.

    Then they wonder why their gigabit internet is slow

  • Why? It's just a relatively new image format and it's an improvement over what was there before

  • True, I didn't think of that. But I still play the Wii U version on my PC, even though it could run the Switch version too. To me, those changes are so small that I don't really care all that much. But one thing I just thought of is that with the Wii U version on Cemu, you can actually play online using Pretendo. I haven't figured out how to set it up yet but that would be a reason for me to play the game more again because I've already 100% completed the single player.

  • Btw, Mario Kart 8 runs way better using Cemu (so the Wii U version). Aside from the new DLC tracks (the ones from the mobile game, they're pretty shit anyway), it's the same game with the same content if you download the DLCs for the Wii U version.

  • I have the same GPU but I always run 7B/8B variants as exl2. Do you use GGUF to use your system RAM?

  • I don't know how big the original model is but I have an RX 6700 XT and I can easily run the Llama 3 8B distill of Deepseek R1 with 32k context. I just haven't figured out how to get good results yet, it always does the <thinking><thinking/> thing.

  • Wtf I haven't seen anything like that

  • Netflix does it again. Record subscriber gains.

    Jump

  • Wasn't $7.99 the price for standard at some point? I mean, it was easy to predict but they really did just add the option with ads to make it as expensive as the version without ads and then make every other option way more expensive

    How much do you blame the people who voted for Trump or other fascists?

    Jump

  • On one hand, his entire ideology and what he said he wants to do was extremely hateful and even someone who didn't think further into it should have seen that. They voted for him for at least that, deporting immigrants and all that. On the other hand, the rise of fascism is a sytemic issue caused by capitalism. It happens every time the economy isn't doing well, that's why people suddenly started voting for the NSDAP (Hitler's party) too. We're supposed to just write down our favorite party (that we select based on random information we've seen on social media once or who looks the coolest) on a piece of paper every few years, so we feel like we're participating and we can spend the rest of our time working for the rich and consuming their products. We're not supposed to actually take part in how our country is run. We don't have any say in the economy anyway, that's decided by people who just so happened to get rich and the people we elect to act in our interest just get bought out by the rich too.

  • What’s the newest way of watching YouTube?

    Jump

  • On my phone I still use LibreTube but with the option to load the video directly from YouTube (essentially doing what NewPipe is doing) and on PC I just use YouTube's directly. I still use Piped to keep my subscriptions synchronized tho.

  • Do you experience smell or sound in your dreams?

    Jump

  • I don't remember my dreams very well in general, so I don't remember hearing sound in them either but I'm pretty sure I can hear sound. Somehow I'm able to talk with people in my dreams, after all. When it comes to smell, I have no idea, I don't remember smelling anything in my dreams at all.

    I think hearing and smell might just be things we simply don't remember well from dreams. We get the vast majority of information from what we see, so that's the first thing we'd remember. The only times I remember feeling something in dreams is when I got stabbed with needles, shot and that one time I dreamed that I smoked when I was a kid (even though I've never done that before). The reason I remember those is just that they left an impression of some sort. With hearing or smell, I think it just doesn't leave an impression or is special in any way, so we simply don't remember it.

  • Smart TV OS Alternative

    Jump

  • My parents bought Xiaomi TV box (could search for the exact name if anyone's interested), which runs GoogleTV (Which is just AndroidTV, they renamed for some reason) and comes with a remote. It even has hardware acceleration for AV1 playback. Downside is of course that it has all the Google spying shit and ads in the home menu but at least it works well and you can use all the apps you want without issue. Idk if there's something like LineageOS for AndroidTV, that would be great.
