Smurfing is Not Welcome in Dota in c/games@lemmy.world

Playing in plat / emerald elo feels like each game is a complete landslide in favor of one team. I wonder if banning Smurf accounts would fix this issue and make games more fun

Ah sorry lemmy code sanitation is changing it. I added a note below it.

Hey everyone

Not sure if this is the right place to ask. I have been experiencing this issue for a while now. I'm convinced it's something to do with my monitor setup. When I use a Wayland session my monitors refuse to sleep! On X11 they sleep as expected when the screen is locked. On Wayland they go to sleep, flash the "entering power save" message and then turn back on. Here is my current and previous setups that both experienced the exact same issue.

Current:

OS: Arch Linux x86_64 
Host: B550M Steel Legend 
Kernel: 6.4.10-arch1-1 
DE: Plasma 5.27.7 
WM: kwin 
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X (12) @ 3.700GHz 
GPU: AMD ATI Radeon RX 7900 XT/7900 XTX 
Memory: 4705MiB / 32018MiB

Previous 2 configurations:

DE: GNOME 43-44
WM: Mutter
GPU: RTX 3080
(everything else is the same except kernel)

DE: GNOME 41-43
WM: Mutter
GPU: GTX 1080ti
(everything else is the same except kernel)

I've tried running this command I found on stack overflow:

/bin/sleep 1 && /bin/dbus-send --session --dest=org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/org_kde_powerdevil org.kde.kglobalaccel.Component.invokeShortcut string:'Turn Off Screen'

Note: && should be && but lemmy is sanitizing it and won't let me put ampersands in code blocks

but no luck. Any ideas on how to fix this?

My company is starting to do this as well. They say it’s to “build culture in market”. Really they just want to force you to interact with your coworkers to make things feel less transactional and to keep tabs on people

Have you tried the Pop Shell gnome extension? It allows you to toggle i3wm like window tiling. It’s also similar to Rectangle on macOS

GE-Proton8-9 and Wine-GE-Proton8-12 Released in c/linux_gaming@lemmy.world

Does that just allow you to use FSR in games that don’t support FSR on their own?

How long has FSR been broken? Is it also broken on valves release of proton?

Why use this over Spotify? I don’t actually own music so is there any advantage for me?

Hey all! Just switched from gnome to KDE and feeling a bit overwhelmed by the amount of widgets and customization available. Which widgets are your favorite that I should add to my system?

I'm just so tired after work in c/memes@lemmy.ml

I’m having a lot less fun with totk than I did with botw 😞. It’s like combination of too many quests, too many caves and being forced to build stuff all the time. I just want to climb mountains, glide, find cool weapons and do shrines. I also hate not having the shrine radar like in botw. I feel like I’m roaming blindly and getting 1 shot by enemies all the time

Some kbin.social communities not viewable from my instance in c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

Oh interesting how does the federation process work? I’m not even able to find this community/magazine by searching from my instance. When I search for it it shows no results. If I search for kbin.social I only see about 10 or so magazines

Hey guys I noticed this morning while trying to search for !leagueoflinux@kbin.social from my instance that it is not found. The community browser can't find the community and I'm not able to see any posts if I type in the url for it directly. If I access the community from a different lemmy instance I'm able to see the posts. Here is an example:

can't see the posts:

https://lemmy.sdf.org/c/leagueoflinux@kbin.social

can see the posts:

https://lemmy.world/c/leagueoflinux@kbin.social

What causes this and is there any way for me as a user living on this instance to fix this?

Thanks

Edit: Idk how to fix the urls but if you copy / paste the text into the url bar manually it works

How are they recording these metrics? Is meta publishing this data publicly?

Is AMD really that much better? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Hey everyone,

I'm currently rocking a 3080 I bought second hand in my Arch Linux rig. It works great under xorg but not so much wayland. There are a number of bugs and gaming performance is worse. I would like to use wayland in general for the mixed refresh rates with dual monitors. My question is: Is AMD really that much better than Nvidia? Is the AMD experience issue free with wayland? Also, how is hardware encoding with AMD? I'm particularly curious how performance is for game streaming with sunshine. I currently use nvenc hardware encoding which is amazing and feels like there is no latency. Does AMD have a similar experience?

Thanks!
