Try using the monado runtime instead of SteamVR.

See Kawane Rio’s 15 minute lightning talk about VR on Linux from this year’s FOSDEM:

The legacy jitsi-based rtc used turn, and so does matrixrtc I believe. I haven’t tried it myself, though.

This just sounds like FUD.

What should the Matrix developers have prioritized instead? Chat programs are complicated, especially when you’re making them distributed. You’re comparing an organization and a MSP with like $1M/yr revenue with a soon-to-IPO company with $600M/yr in revenue.

What feature is missing from Matrix that is preventing Discord users from joining?

Matrix uses TURN, and the Matrix protocol is not used for carrying voice/video.

Element is an independent client developed by Element, and not part of the Matrix protocol.

Meanwhile, Ubuntu is switching to uutils

I have to actively tell my grandfather who wanted to switch to Fedora to stop trying to use the command line lol, it’s easier to remember the GUI. CLI isn’t some big looming threat like it was in the 2010’s.

AI summary

Check out this website for information about multiplayer games on Linux:

https://areweanticheatyet.com/

There’s only about 700 games that have broken anticheat and Hunt: Showdown’s anticheat system officially supports running on Linux.

5380 USD here. About a quarter of that was my steam deck and my Index. About 250 USD a year on average spent on just games then 🤔

Does antimatter have mass?

The ideological brain

In political science, a political ideology is a certain ethical set of ideals, principles, doctrines, myths, or symbols of a social movement, institution, class, or large group that explains how society should work, offering some political and cultural blueprint for a certain social order.

Saying political science and sociology aren’t real science is silly.

Pretty sure the field of political science is not moral relativism

Thinking patterns are reinforced physically, makes sense.

Outside of topical debates, the key difference between conservatism and progressivism is risk taking vs risk avoidance.

Build scripts are often written in bash, yes, but I would say that you should find a utility program, or write your own utility in python, if you’re breaking out sed. It’s very hard to read code like this, no matter the team size.

There’s probably only 100-300 usages of sed in the entire nixpkgs repo, with over 100,000 packages.

I definitely agree Linux is easier to maintain and build code on than Windows, but yeah abusing sed is not really an ideal use case 😅

who in their right mind would try to do this on Linux

Never show your R^2

kids yelling things from the trailer out loud?

Run a piece talking about how “culturally renounced” the movie is, and how much kids are enjoying it!

That is not the official goal of the patent system in any country, and any behavior like that should be stopped.
