23.1 already has ray tracing support, although it doesn't work on all titles. With 23.2 a notable example that should have rt support is Cyberpunk 2077. The rt performance should also increase by a lot, and even more in 23.3.

That said, I also think I will turn it on, say the frame rates are too low and switch it off again. And that's with a 7900 XTX. What I have seen of ray tracing I do not consider all that impressive. Maybe experiencing it myself will change my mind, but the Radeon 7000 series is not powerful enough in that department I think. And considering I want this card to last 4ish years, I probably won't see ray tracing on my machine any time soon, unless FRS 3 proves to be surprisingly good.

Great! I've been looking forward to this! 😄

Very interesting blog post, thank you. Quite different from the "This week in KDE", but a nice addition for software developers and tech-savy readers. I'll keep an eye on this blog 🙂.

If you run both Pi.Alert and Pi-hole, Pi.Alert will get the information on network devices from Pi-hole. The only way of I know of excluding active devices would be adding their MAC addresses to MAC_IGNORE_LIST in pialert.conf.

I've had a 7000-series card since December and haven't experienced any driver issues. Using KDE with Wayland and two monitors. My only complaint is the power use when I go over 60Hz, but maybe it has to do with one of my monitors. This is what I see happening:

  • Both at 60Hz: 25W
  • Using only display A at 120Hz: 25W
  • Using only display B at 120Hz: 90W
  • Both at 120Hz: 90W

I was hoping some driver update would fix this but by now I've given up. As for gaming experience, I have zero complaints. Big titles I played were Cyberpunk 2077, Remnant 2 and Elden Ring and they performed great.

Welcome 🙂. I always loved bleeding edge so Arch really suits me well. There's probably a distro out there for everyone and you seemingly have found yours!

Helemaal mee eens. Ik krijg vaak jeuk van het "keihard aanpakken" etc. wat je altijd hoort maar dit is in vergelijking met de gevolgen van de daad toch echt uit balans. Zeker omdat het een vermeende pedofiel betreft zal naar mijn verwachting een groot deel van de bevolking echter toch van mening zijn dat elke straf voor de veroordeelden teveel is.

Woah I didn't know that game was about to be released 😮. It's been on my wish list for a long time. Well, I know what I'll play tomorrow now that I completed Blasphemous 2!

The Dutch government also launched their own mastodon instance recently at social.overheid.nl. Several government departments have already joined. I hope politicians will also make the move, although I do not know if this specific instance allows for accounts other than those of government departments.

When you make public announcements as a politician or political party, it should be done via a channel that can be accessed without registration!

Yeah, take the plunge! I never liked dual boot and even though I liked Linux since the late 90's I never committed to it on my desktop due to it being mainly a gaming system. When Proton came around I dumped Windows and never regretted it :-). Especially after reading this article I'm happy I don't have to deal with that crap!

Ik vraag me oprecht af welk deel van de bevolking op een persoon stemt ipv een partij, extreem-rechts even negerende. Ben nooit een Klaver-fan geweest maar dat weerhield me nooit van het stemmen op GL. Zo heb ik evenmin iets met de persoon Omtzigt, maar zijn standpunten vwb het functioneren van de overheid spreken me weer wel aan. Voor het eerst in 18 jaar is er kans dat ik geen GL kies, en dat heeft dan weer niets met Timmermans te maken 🙂.

They also always refer to it as "my iPhone", never "my phone", at least all the users I have met (NL). I find this very odd.
