    You can get very high end office chairs incredibly cheap if you looks used. It's not hard to all to find Steelcase Leaps and Herman Miller Aerons under $300 on Craigslist, eBay, FB Marketplace, or used office supply stores. I got my Steelcase Leap for $220 and it's been going strong for over 5 years now.

    This is a weird thread. Lots of complaints about lock in and companies managing your keys, both of which are easily avoidable, the exact same way you'd do so with your passwords.

    What do you means by this? What part do you want to be open source? Passkey are just cryptographic keys, no part of that requires anything unfree. There's aready an open source authentication stack you can use to implement them. You can store them completely locally with KeyPassXC for selfhost Vaultwarden to store them remotely. Both are open source?

    If you're on the newest version you shouldn't need to manually select anything to use UMU. You just need to be using a Proton runner as your Wine version. I'm using GE-Proton9-15 and I can see in the logs when watching a game that Umu is being used.

    You can already use umu with Lutris. If you choose any version of Proton as your wine runner, Lutris will automatically use Proton. One pretty major drawback is that Lutris won't allow you to use winetricks, as umu didn't add support for it until after the last Lutris release. Heroic supports it as well.

    I haven't seen the Bottles devs give any info about when they might implement. I'm thinking it might not be until Bottles Next.

    The joke is a popular meme of making up things that are happening on the podcast that obviously do not fit the general idea of the podcast. If you are aware of these memes, you'd probably understand the joke right away.

    I still think it's not a good joke to make since it can be easily misleading. I'm not sure there was a good way to make this joke while clarifying it was a joke, and they would've been better off finding some other meme to make a joke with.

    I think the biggest problem with the joke is that Proton somehow didn't understand their audience at all. I would imagine it leans older and most of their followers wouldn't get it. Most of my Gen Z friends would have understood the meme, but I doubt many of them follow Proton on Twitter.

    Yep, that's why pretty much all haze builds will purchase Ammo Scavenger. Each time you shoot a spirit orb you get two ammo back, one that the item gives you, and another because of the spirit power increase it gives you.

    Isn't that already true for QT apps on a gtk desktop and GTK apps on a QT desktop?

    In my experience, GTK apps feel pretty good on Cosmic, and it has support for automatically theming them with your Cosmic theme. QT apps feel out of place, but this is an issue I've had on every non-Plasma desktop, because I struggle to get theming to work.

    You answered your question of why Wayland exists right after asking it. X sucks. Wayland is a very significant improvement, I'm not sure why you think it's a lateral move.

    Also, X works for some cases, but not all, just lime Wayland. Using multiple refresh rates doesnt work well, HDR has no hope of ever working, and fractional scaling is horrible. Wayland has initial support for HDR and great support for the other two.

  • Fairly recently, I saw an app that served the same purpose as Barrier or Input-leap, allowing you use one computer to control the keyboard and cursor of multiple. I'm fairly certain it was designed with GTK 4, or maybe 3, and it had Wayland support. I've had no luck getting input-leap working well on my devices, so if anyone knows what app this was (or any other options) I would really appreciate it. Update: Despite searching for 15 minutes before posting, I found it seconds later, thanks to DDGs reddit bang. It is [lan-mouse](https://github.com/feschber/lan-mouse). Will leave this up in case this software comes in handy for others.

    Do any of you have any software you can recommend for removing unwanted audio tracks and subtitles? Some of my shows and movies have multiple, and the Roku app does not follow the users set default language, leading to it playing the wrong track when autoplaying. I've tried unmanic, but its unfortunately too heavy for my server, just slows everything to a crawl.

    I'm not the creator of this video, but I wanted to share it because Warfork is an incredibly fun game and more people should be playing it. It's not super populated, but you can usually find a good match. Highly recommend trying it if you enjoy (or want to try) arena shooters!

    Devs Announce Faceit Anticheat for BattleBit will be compatible with Linux, Steam Deck

    cross-posted from !linux_gaming@lemmy.ml > Got this from a post on the alien site. From previous discussion on Lemmy it sounded like Linux users had good things to say about this game but were discouraged about the upcoming FaceIt implementation such that they wouldn't be able to join anticheat enabled matches. Those users and Linux gamers on the fence would probably appreciate hearing this news. > > With this announcement on the dev team's community Discord, it appears Linux users will NOT lose access to matches with anticheat. > > Source: https://discord.com/channels/303681520202285057/345616096470237186/1129780379218358282 > (BattleBit Remastered official Discord server)
