Quoting: Mohandevir

Quoting: STiAT

Quoting: MohandevirIt would be really nice of them to "turn on" the standard bluetooth pairing for the Stadia controller, so we may use it elsewhere, wireless... It could make a fantastic AndroidTV controller for GeForce Now...

I thought that was a hardware limitation not just a limitation by the firmware.

Would be nice, I really like the controller.

Nope. The Stadia controller has a standard 4.2 bluetooth chip... It's only used for initial pairing, though.

Then I hope they change that, otherwhise the controller is just waste while it could still be perfectly used.

I doubt it though that there will be a single dollar more invested.

Hope is the last thing to die though. I even like the Stadia controller better than the Steam one (my wife prefers the steam one though, so it would be nice if I could use the Stadia one).

I am all in for Intel as another competitor.

But I think their hardware will need a few generations to really close up.

As well do the drivers. They do not have a good track record there. I hope this initiative will get them there.

Nvidia opened up considerably, AMD is great, and pressure from the Intel side will certainly help.

Quoting: SantojaYou can add the launcher to steam and play it using Proton, works great for heroes of the storm, I didn't try WoW

Works with WoW too, but proton had issues with the bnet app too these days.

Quoting: lionblaze55The Fedora beta has been great with Gnome 43, all my extensions have been working without issue as well! Loving the work being done with these projects.

I am getting crashes with the AppIndicator after lock screen for some reason. Or I think so since that disappeared after I disabled it.

Otherwhise it's so far pretty good. I dislike that they do not show the device for the audio output change (now I have two devices to switch to with the same name), but everything else seems pretty good.

Seems they did some work on switching windows too, some weired games as M&B Warband now actually appear when you click them in the preview (it runs real fullscreen, no windowed fullscreen option).

Quoting: KohlyKohlI just read some rumors that Intel cancelled their Arc dedicated GPUs already. Would be disappointing if they gave up already as I was looking forward to more competition in the GPU market.

Intel alteady pushed back on this rumor.

I would like them as a competitor in the GPU market, but they are far away to become one.

I think we'll probably see cards able to compete in the mid-higer levels in 5 years or further in the future.

Let's see if they have the will to that investment.

Quoting: Sojiro84...Ugh, now I gotta look at that ugly Gnome styled interface ...

You get used to it. I thought it impossible too and now use Gnome for 6 month after I used KDE for the short period of 24 years. Mostly since it's simply better supported in Fedora than KDE (had issues there with KDE and display management and Discover).

I may go bsck to KDE once they figured out proper display management though. For some reason that is a headache since 2018.

I tried to use Bottles for various games, but to be true I found Lutris way easier to manage, and well, most things I installed in Lutris actually worked, where most in Bottles did not.

I think it's too young a project to be stable or even close to be fit for general consumption.

I wondered today what my HDD was doing going crazy while I was programming.

It was the update running in the background. That one is huge.

Glad I got the games on a seperate disk. Though, I finally got 2 2TB disks to replace my HDDs, still have to do that. But then I would not recognize stuff like that.

Never been much of a console player, no handhelds either.

But having played V Rising, I can imagine it working pretty well on steamdeck with properly adapted controls for inventory, building and crafting. The combat is already very centric on movement and targetting, so that should work with little adaption. It felt like a controller game with mouse&keyboard already in that regard.
