Wait, is this like a really accurate replica of the Windows explorer, or is it actual Windows explorer in a VM with seamless mode?

Edit: No sane person would add stuff like OneDrive and 3D Objects to an explorer replica, so my guess is VM.

Team Fortress 2 is now at a 15% review score due to the #FixTF2 movement by NoisyFlake in c/steam@lemmy.ml

I give Valve the benefit of the doubt and assume that they know that there's plenty of consumers that are heavily against a kernel level anticheat. Valve is not really known for anti-consumer bullshit like this.

Apple to Reduce Motion Sickness With Vehicle Motion Cues on iPhone by NoisyFlake in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

If this works, it would be absolutely wonderful. I can't look at a phones screen longer than 5 seconds before I'm getting motion sickness in a moving car.

Goodbye EndeavourOS ARM by NoisyFlake in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] NoisyFlake@lemm.ee 122 points 2 months ago

it doesn’t even host it’s own repos

Yes, and that's a good thing, otherwise it would be like Manjaro.

EndeavourOS is perfect if you already know your way around a Linux system but don't want to spend the time and effort to setup Arch.

Explicit sync Wayland protocol has finally been merged! by NoisyFlake in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] NoisyFlake@lemm.ee 43 points 3 months ago

AFAIK we still need this merge request here for it to actually affect 99% of games, because they all run with Xwayland, right? https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/967

Random application segfaults on Arch (lemm.ee)

Hi everyone,

ever since I switched to Arch about two months ago, most applications segfault multiple times a day. There doesn't seem to be any pattern for the crashes, sometimes it's even happening while idling (e.g. reading a news article).

Things I've tried without any luck so far:

Running Firefox in safe-mode without any extensions
Switching from regular to LTS kernel
Disable Hardware Acceleration in Firefox
Change RAM speed and timings
Run Memtest successfully
Replace entire RAM with a new certified kit
Use only a single RAM slot
Apply Ryzen fixes (iommu=soft, limit c-states)
Use only a single CPU core (maxcpus=1)
Downgrade Nvidia driver to 535xx
Use Nouveau instead of the nvidia driver
Use Openbox instead of KDE
Disable zswap and THP

Here's full journalctl from a day where both Spotify and Firefox crashed at the end, a few seconds after each other:

Some more info about my system:

Ryzen 5 3600X
MSI B450M PRO-VDH Max
32GB RAM @ 3200MHz
Geforce RTX 2070 SUPER (using nvidia-dkms)
Plasma 5.27.10 on X11

I'm pretty sure that it's not hardware related, because I've booted up a Debian 12 live image where everything ran for several hours without a crash. But it seems to be Arch related, as I also booted up a fresh EndeavourOS live image (so basically Arch), where applications also randomly segfaulted. Any idea why everything works fine on Debian but not on Arch? Debian uses the 6.1 kernel, which I already tried, so that's not it.

Let me know if you need any more information that might help solve this issue. Thanks!

Edit [solved]: It looks like disabling PBO in the UEFI/BIOS did the trick. The strange thing is, after enabling it again, it's still not crashing again. Someone suspected that the MoBo default/training settings were faulty, so I guess this was a very rare case here. That's probably why it took so long to find a solution. Thanks everyone for helping me out!

Steam has now officially stopped supporting Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1. by NoisyFlake in c/technology@lemmy.world

Vista wasn't actually a bad OS, it just got a bad reputation pretty fast because it had higher hardware requirements than XP and most people didn't have decent enough hardware for a smooth experience. That in combination with the new UAC feature that most people thought was annoying drove people away pretty fast, although the OS itself wasn't bad - in fact, it's pretty similar to Windows 7.

Manjaro OS by NoisyFlake in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] NoisyFlake@lemm.ee 19 points 7 months ago

There's not really any benefit of running Manjaro over Arch, it will only introduce problems over time. If you want a "pre-configured" Arch with a nice installer, go for EndeavourOS, it's great!

How do i stop this kind of pop up from ever appearing again? Win10 by NoisyFlake in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] NoisyFlake@lemm.ee 31 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I'd like to mention Windows 10 LTSC here. It's an official Windows 10 Edition from Microsoft, designed for enterprise and embedded usage. Therefore it has no bloatware, no annoying feature updates, no ads and only the absolute minimum of telemetry. If you don't like Windows but somehow have to use it, this might be the right choice for you.

Auf die Gefahr hin, dass ich mich unbeliebt mache: Wir haben das damals mit 15 auch gemacht und fandens lustig. Mittlerweile alle mitte 20 und natürlich längst aufgehört damit, rechts ist bei uns aber absolut keiner. War einfach dummer Jugendhumor, mehr nicht.
