This is not true. A17 pro is an existing chip that is slower than the A18. It wouldn’t make sense to call A18 A17 instead

Palwold dev talks too much

Both run games at 720p

“Can’t live without” is an overstatement, but here are mine:

• Kvaesitso, search focused android launcher. I used to really like nova launcher’s local search and navigated my phone mostly using that. But once gensture navigation became a thing I had to stop using nova and replicate the experience in Samsung launcher with various local search apps that were lacking in comparison. Tried to go back a couple times once gestures with 3rd party launchers got better but found my old setup still too ugly and sluggish to go back to. Recently I randomly came across Kvaesitso on fdroid and it was everything I ever wanted out of a launcher.

• Amberol music player. Not the ideal music player I’d like but at least it’s not Elisa.

• Kid3, audio file tag editor. It has much better workflow/automation than mp3tag that I used in windows, and it seems if you spend some effort on it you could add more automation to make it even better.

These are more like last 2 week but anyways:

• Finished Agent A after a year of hiatus.
• Got hdr to work in Dark Souls 2 with the graphics overhaul mod and finished getting the 4 big Souls.
• Got tired of the difficulty of Dark Souls 2 and decided to start a new random shooter from my library… Devil Daggers
• Had a management sim itch and gave another shot at FTL, never got to win. Half the time I lost in a single encounter to things like never landing a shot on the enemy ship due to shields + misses or 7 people teleporting to my ship and wrecking havok. Other times I got too greedy.
• Tried to figure out which way to go next in Dark Solus 2 by checking the wiki but kept getting sidetracked by things I might’ve missed.
• Also tried to quench the management itch with shapez, but didn’t like it much. Just made me crave the factorio dlc more. Amazing music though

I wasn’t defending the photo? Of course water is a bad thing

I was wrong about the hole, but I’d like to point out that full size camera lenses don’t need to be as thin as possible to keep the camera bump in check.

Now that I think about it it is a third microphone. When they came out there were many posts of S20Us’ and note20Us’ camera glasses spontaneously shattering and the consensus from what I read was sudden pressure change. The same thing happened to my previous phone while in my locker (galaxy c9 pro with a single small camera and no hole), so it sounded plausible. And it’s also believable that water doesn’t go in from surface tension alone since the hole is really small

Regardless I forgot that that it was supposed to be a microphone while posting my comments so nevermind

Edit: also phones do normalise air pressure, just get a barometer app and squeeze the phone

Wdym? Water has surface tension and dust is solid, air doesn’t have such limitations. My own phone (note 20 ultra) has an opening under the camera bump to allow air in to relive pressure despite having an ip68 rating.

That’s water and dust resistance, not air

It shouldn’t be air tight, otherwise it could break from pressure changes

Every update, Wayland breaks

Would you elaborate? If anything 555 and 560 should be more stable on Wayland

I feel silly for not thinking this… It works fine without the mod unless you try to change resolution/fullscreen settings.

Apparently the mod is supposed to disable in-game resolution controls and force it to borderless window at monitor resolution when the flipmodel swapchain is enabled (which is necessary for hdr). It seems to do this by always launching the game in a 720p window and depending on if the custom swapchain is enabled it either resizes it to the screen or applies the in-game resolution setting. Gamescope doesn’t respond to the change and keeps outputting 720p in a 1440p window :/.

I can’t wait for wine wayland

Edit: Just found that using the --force-windows-fullscreen option fixes this issue!!

Guessing from how this change required 3+ implementations before it became official according to the gitlab page, maybe it’s a chicken and egg situation. Hdr is a lot of work so maybe people don’t want to implement an unfinalized version that might change

Wow the icon saga is finished!?

If anyone wants to throw away a couple hours, there was SO much discussion (and initially drama) over it: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/269

Isn’t apple at 18W?

Source? This is using the same engine as Avatar frontiers and that can be played offline.

4chan, and it’s maxxing. It’s used used for ‘productive’ things incels do (for the improvement of their life) instead of dooming over how they’re incels

Gpu brand shouldn’t be a factor, just buy whatever’s better value.

I’ve used nvidia on Wayland for a year and the issues are greatly exaggerated, and if you have a cpu with an igpu you can plug your monitor(s) into the motherboard to get around wayland-related ones (there’s probably some latency impact for games but I can’t tell).

Currently the problems (that I know of) with nvidia drivers are that colors get muted if you enable hdr, steam’s web interfaces appear corrupted or flicker unless you resize them, there is no memory spillover to ram, and the nvidia ‘x server’ settings app doesn’t support wayland.

And keep in mind that issues tend to get resolved over time. When I first built my PC the nvidia gpu would cause xwayland apps to flicker and didn’t support nigth light or transparent panels in kde. The amd igpu would turn the screen pure white if I changed windowing related kde settings. These don’t happen anymore.
