Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft Confirms Windows 11 January 2026 Update Issues, Releases FixesEnglish
2·3 days agoFor installing Flatpaks via GUI, if you’re using GNOME, you can use Bazaar or GNOME Software and if you’re on KDE, you can use Discover. I’ll always recommend staying away from Manjaro though. Holding packages for 2 weeks breaks AUR compatibility often and as a former AUR package maintainer, I’m not a fan of that. They sometimes end up delaying important fixes too and they have a history of neglecting security. I’d definitely recommend cachyOS over Manjaro. CachyOS also has a very friendly forum if you end up needing help. For something more similar to Manjaro and closer to Arch (without all the performance patching and stuff), EndeavourOS is a great option. Ah well, basically, anything other than Manjaro.

2·3 days agoI’d say, don’t bother. For me, I was already on Arch, as I’ve been for years, so switching package repositories isn’t a big deal and I could just as easily switch back. So when I noticed some minor performance issues with Arkham Knight on base arch, I thought “why not”. There’s also the fact that Bazzite can’t work for me because of its immutable nature. If you’re happy with how things are going right now, I don’t think there’s a reason to switch. Of course, there’s always the “why not” factor for everyone :)

1·3 days agoTo clarify, I use cachyOS packages on arch. So, I can’t give a review of the distro itself. But the packages do work really well for gaming, especially their kernel and their proton variant. I use GNOME and force Proton to use Wayland and FSR4. So far, so good.

4·4 days agoThe thing is, I game. And I’ve found CachyOS to be performing better on games than Windows. In fact, I’m running Expedition 33 with forced FSR4 on a Navi 2 GPU (which isn’t supposed to support FSR4) and it performs better than with FSR3 on Windows. That honestly surprised me. Unfortunate that FSR is becoming a requirement for so many modern games (thanks UE5). And then there’s anticheat…
Portals. Ask app devs to fix stuff

World News@lemmy.world•Japan: Hundreds get car driving licences suspended for drink cyclingEnglish
14·1 month agoI think it’s to a whole different degree in Japan though, at least from what I’ve heard. Forced drinking parties at work, for example.

Technology@lemmy.world•RAM prices soar, but popular Windows 11 apps are using more RAM due to Electron, Web componentsEnglish
50·2 months agoThis is what bothers me so much… Browsers should be improving their PWA implementation (looking at you, Firefox) and electron apps should be PWAs more often. Another decent middle ground Is Tauri. SilverBullet and Yaak are both so much lighter and better than anything else on my system.

2·2 months agoFuture far cry titles did also have the same fire spreading system, just toned down since they’re not set in very dry places.
Summit and Thunder are cool. Especially Summit.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Historians never talk about the "good old days".
3·3 months ago“10 years ago” would mean the year is 2015. By then, there were no 30 search bars, generally no viruses just by connecting to the internet and speeds were also acceptable or more than acceptable. And 2015 was unquestionably a better time for the internet.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Superhero stories have become less about saving people and more about fighting villains.
4·4 months agoYeah OC’s argument seems very shallow to me. Where does spider-man even fall in all this? The typical spidey depiction is a broke kid who isn’t even sure he wants to be a superhero. What does that make him?
Zed with all the AI stuff turned off is surprisingly nice

GTK4 apps and libadwaita apps are different though. You can theme both as well.
Regarding Wayland, I wonder why features still vary so wildly, even with projects like wlroots. Do WMs just not care enough?
Scrolling in Qt apps in general isn’t great. Still no inertial scrolling for example.
