The biggest advantage of balcony-mounted solar panels, at least where I live, is that you need 0 permits. You don’t need to ask your neighbors, you don’t need to ask your power company, you don’t need a building permit, you don’t need an electrician and you don’t need a solar company to install them for you.

They don’t replace large solar farms but if you incentivize people to DIY their solar installation you get tons of additional cheap and clean energy from a source that would be wasted otherwise.

I “vibe code” anything that is throwaway.

Same here. It’s surprisingly easy to get quick results with a few prompts for one-time scripts without putting any effort in.

Why not run the image registry on the Raspberry Pi itself? Then you can do your builds on your regular machine and push them to your Raspberry Pi when done.

Doom 2016 launched with a 44k player peak on Steam, Doom Eternal with a 100k peak and Doom: The Dark Ages only got a 30k peak.

Either most people play on Game Pass, think the game is too expensive, don’t have raytracing compatible hardware or don’t like Denuvo.

Whatever it is, the game doesn’t seem to be doing so great.

If Doom Eternal is a rhythm game, what does that make Metal: Hellsinger aka “Doom but as a rhythm game”?

(really great game btw)

TIL that Bungie is releasing a new game.

Although judging by this news and the first sentence on their Steam page being “…Bungie’s team-based extraction shooter.”, maybe it’s a good thing I can’t play their games.

I did something similar a while ago but for changing volume on a single application, should work for devices as well though since both are just nodes.

Try this:

#!/bin/sh

node_id=$(pw-dump | jq '.[] | select(.type == "PipeWire:Interface:Node" and .info.props."node.name" == "Virtual-Sink-1") | .id')

echo "Adjusting volume for $node_id"

wpctl set-volume $node_id 10%-

Replace Virtual-Sink-1 with the name of your audio device and 10%- with the operation you want to perform.

Any reviews/feedback from current Nextcloud users? I do plan to eventually self host but would start off using storage included in the plan

If my Nextcloud stops working I’m done for.

My calendars are in there, my todo list, my notes, my contacts, all my savegames, backups, documents, invoices, photos, videos, everything.

It’s pretty heavy to host but it’s worth it if you make full use of their entire suite.

I recently got a 80% keyboard without numpad and bought a separate numpad to put on the left side of the keyboard.

Game changer.

I don’t know a 100% how the Nvidia part plays out but on AMD you still need the Vulkan HDR layers (https://github.com/Zamundaaa/VK_hdr_layer) in order to get proper color mapping in Wayland. gamescope does it by itself.

These are no longer needed for AMD after the upcoming Mesa 25.1 release.

And you are sure you were using Proton-GE 10.1? The environment variable only exists there and it sets DXVK_HDR here: https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/blob/9d708fa4ed2a1649272edad39196d31edb443529/proton#L1746

It also failed to detect the monitor peak brightness

That happens quite often unfortunately. Apparently there are a few dozen ways on Windows to detect monitor peak brightness and not all are implemented in Wine.

Did you set both PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 and PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1?

PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 also sets DXVK_HDR=1 and ENABLE_HDR_WSI=1.

I once wrote the guy listed for their infrastructure that one of their mail servers is configured incorrectly.

He got back to me after 2 hours thanking me and telling me he fixed it.

Thought that was pretty impressive for a company of their size.

Already tried a few games in Wayland with HDR and it works well. Even Helldivers 2 works now without the anti-cheat complaining.

In the Steam Flatpak the colors are still washed out but I assume that should be fixed with Mesa 25.1.

I always chuckle when Jellyfin shows subtitles as “Full ASS”.

Intel has already deployed a fix for this in the 13th and 14th gen by permanently damaging the chip and crashing. Checkmate hackers.

There is now source code for the ROM, which makes creating ports and mods significantly easier.

The initial goal of most decompilations is to produce a 1:1 match of the original ROM. That’s how they know they’ve got a perfect representation of the original code.

Are you trying to run it on PC?

This is only the decompilation of the original for N64, the binaries it produces are for the N64 or an emulator. Making a PC port is the next step.

I think you are right about the Elgato PCI-e models not working on Linux unfortunately.

In case you are ever in the market for a new capture card in the future:

99.9% of USB capture cards work out of the box. Alternatively, if it has to be PCI-e: Blackmagic provides first-class Linux drivers for their PCI-e cards.

We use some Blackmagic cards for larger projects and for the smaller ones we use Elgato USB capture cards.
