Nope. I was actually able to get it working the other day after ditching flatpak and re-installing Steam, Gamescope, and MangoHUD with DNF instead. All the guides I read said that flatpak would be no issue, but it was clear that as soon as I referenced any of the above applications in the launch arguments it would fail to load because it didn’t understand what I was asking to launch.

So, all in all, I now have Rocket League running at a high framerate with FSR on integrated graphics. It only took two days :P

Yes I am. I appreciate the help though. It seems pretty clear that it’s failing to recognize the gamescope argument because even if I use it barebones without any resolutions or FSR arguments it still fails to launch. Wish I could see thr output somewhere so I could know what to look into.

That said, I have since looked into Nobara and Bazzite and they look really promising. They should have all this stuff I’m trying to do baked right in. The point still stands though that these are extra complications that I wouldn’t have on Windows with a full driver suite.

Like you I’ve tried to game on Linux and each time have had to go back. I really want it to work, and to be fair, it DOES work. I love my Steam Deck and it’s proof that with enough tuning you can get a good experience.

However if you want to get more than a game just running, that’s when you have some issues. Like you I had the X11 multiple monitor issue people describe. Wayland is the fix these days but there were still issues using both different high refresh and VRR at the same time (may be fixed now).

My current issue is trying to get gamescope running when launching games from steam on Fedora 40. I have the flatpak of each and guides say it should just work, but every time I use gamescope as a launch option nothing launches. I imagine there must be a log somewhere but I don’t know where that is. I found some open bug reports that say gamescope just broke a few versions ago with Steam, who knows.

The only reason I need to use gamescope is that there is no AMD control panel, so no way to get FSR. This is a lower end GPU and I really need FSR for this particular game to run well. This is the biggest issue IMO, with only basic GPU drivers the community has to figure out how to implement the latest gaming features on their own, which means it is years behind. The VRR/High Refresh multiple monitor issue for example is something windows was doing with ease several years ago and Linux is getting it now.

So you have to give up a lot of multiplayer games, and you have to be OK with just running the game, not anything modern like DLSS or frame gen, or whatever is cutting edge. For this reason I can still only recommend gaming on Linux if you’re on a Steam Deck, or if you’re a techy person who mostly plays single player titles. Anything more and you will be messing around more than playing.

The F22 is has the lowest radar cross section in the world as far as I’m aware, so… pretty stealthy.

I’m genuinely confused by this statement. Plant based milk lasts SUBSTANTIALITY longer than cows milk. I can leave it in my fridge for weeks, maybe a month and its still good. I legit have not ever looked at an expiry date since switching to soy milk.

That’s not even to mention that you can buy them in unrefrigerated, shelf stable cartons. It’s longer lasting in every imaginable way.

Sadly I’m bracing for what I think is the coming Trump/Poilievre combo.

Some of them are that crazy. Let me introduce you to the Church of Christ, Scientist (yes that’s actually their name).

Yes

What? Who's the enemy here, what are you talking about?

You've become what you hate, IMO.

Well, someone with more middle east knowledge than me can tell me if I'm retarded, but here's my take:

There needs to be compromise instead of this all or nothing approach that both sides want. A lot of land needs to be given back to the Palestinians, probably close to half the country so it feels fair. Holy sites that both sides claim need to go to neither. Something like, a monument is erected on the holy site and it is seen as a DMZ that is cared for by volunteers from both sides, but is not open to civilians and can be admired from afar. Then both people can have a mosque or synagogue off to the side on their respective land.

There needs to be som kind of de-armament program where Israel gives up much of its military and both countries agree not to arm. We need something like a NATO where other countries are willing to back Israel and Palestine should the other break the terms of the agreement and become an agressor.

In short, Israel would have to give up a hell of a lot that it has absolutely no intention of ever doing. And then, only then, do you have a chance that in a few generations the Palestinians don't hate them anymore for what the put their parents through. I don't see it ever happening, not because it's impossible, but because large changes like this usually only ever happen after a devastating war, and right now the world supports Israel.

sigh that last quote about it getting tied up in appeals is the shitty part. It'll hang in limbo and trump will die without ever seeing a consequence. He'll die thinking (and largely correctly) that he won.

This is my fear too. No doubt there are great people working at Valve, but Gabe is responsible for how customer first the company is. I too worry that Valve will fall when he's gone.

Valve is my favorite company. Not just because I like video games, but I love the way Gabe runs it. Valve is so customer focused and deserves the "don't be evil" slogan. I am very scared of the day we lose Gabe because it's his vision that drives them. Selling to Microsoft would destroy everything that makes them good.

I think he's referring to your draconian punishments. It doesn't give you much high ground.

Very well said. As a fellow vegan I wish more of us took an approach like this. Too often I see the militant side focused on shaming and I don't think that works. It raises people's defences, gives the movement a bad name, and puts them in fight or flight mode.

I'm amazed at the lengths some people will go to for such trivial things. I'm not surprised at all that a school had an old rule, or that they've been called out on it. But to try to bypass laws to enforce such a, let's be real, silly rule of no real consequence, is just amazing.

I just can't put myself in the head of some principal wo believes dress codes are the most important thing in the world. Just fucking back down.

Which even as a downplay of her actions is unforgivable. You don't sing loudly during a performance, you're the audience.

I'd rather it be like this than let a private company litter the sky with satellites that can become space debris. At least with a low orbit like this everything is temporary.

How would you change his setup to prevent ARP attacks? More network segmentation (clients and servers on separate VLANs) or does OPNsense additional protections I should look into?
