man I'm planning to take a look at that too, hearing a lot of good things. currently just goofing around on arch and I'm breaking my system every few months when i compile my graphics stack a bit differently ๐Ÿฅฒ

even worse, the fact that they gatekeep it with the 4000 series for no good reason just goes to show that they turned from hardware maker to designer of walled gardens.

i think it's way cooler how half a year ago i was able to use a mod for cyberpunk 2077 and mesa's amazing gpu code to run ray tracing and fsr frame gen together on RDNA1 - which lacks hardware ray tracing acceleration, and at a time where cyberpunk didn't have fsr3.

fuck Nvidia, making stuff like this impossible

honestly Ubuntu is getting too much shit by the Linux forum dwellers. it works great, is newbie friendly, and a lot of very specialized industry software, if they support any Linux whatsoever, it's gonna be Ubuntu. I've started out with Ubuntu and if it wasn't for them, i might not have sticked to it long enough to make it to arch by now

damn this goes deep - learning about pissing etiquette and ethical piracy at the same time ๐Ÿ˜‚

very true though. i wish there was a more widespread code of honor. but most of us lack the insight.

whenever Nintendo is trying to take your money for a 100kb cloud save, steal. every entertainment industry has to also compete against piracy, and the successful ones win (steam, free and sometimes really massively generous cloud saves)

whenever they just try to release a game at a specific point in time, let them. that's a really fair ask. don't steal, and don't publicize it...

the last 16 years had 4 years of republican rule. the democrats are very responsible for the fact that the feds are going after pirates (crime against rich stakeholders) instead of crimes against the members of the general American demographic as a principle.

the change from public servants to corporate military is a bipartisan problem, folks

i think people can change in their teenage years by the forced interaction in a small social environment at school. but once they reach adulthood, anyone in need of further personal growth just isolates and festers in their ways, avoiding confrontations that could prove them wrong. here's to hoping that you who scrolled this far down in this lemmy thread make an unlikely friend when you least expect it and become a little better than before ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‘

technicians just know what's good. unfortunately every company becomes too big for its own good and inspirationless ghouls take over ๐Ÿ˜” the palworld thing also just shows they could be so successful if they take off the shackles and make a good game, but now they want to shackle everyone else so no one can have good games

I'm kind of surprised what gets downvoted these days.. do people actually not know that humans are imitation learners in almost every social and scientific aspect? ๐Ÿ˜จ

HDR Confusion (lemy.lol)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by SitD@lemy.lol to c/linux_gaming@lemmy.world
 

Hey fellas, could you help me understand a bit more about HDR?

  • I understand that it's an absolute brightness standard, not like the relative levels in SDR
  • But why does it end up washing out colors unless I amplify them in kwin? Is just the brightness absolute in nits, but not the color?
  • Why does my screen block the brightness control in HDR mode but not contrast? And why does the contrast increase the brightness of highlights, instead of just split midtones towards brighter and darker shades?
  • Why is truehdr400 supposed to be better in dark rooms than peak1000 mode?
  • Why is my average emission capped at 270nits, that seems ridiculously low even for normal SDR screens as comparison.

Cheers ๐Ÿ˜Š
