It works in KDE + Wayland… mostly… for applications that support it… and there was this update that ruined my color profile for a while but they fixed that now!
Or just don’t use it
Ah I did some more research and what I said only applies to the older Elgato devices. They did use h264 as the format over usb and you could use that directly without recoding. But they moved to a custom format due to delay and decoding overhead. And ofc you’d want stream ovelays and such which also requires reencoding.
You are correct that the Elgato does video encoding. And that if you use your GPU it’s putting a little bit of extra load on the GPU. But it’s negligible since the video encoding is a separate part of the chip. Maybe you’ll lose a percentage of FPS due to power usage snd bandwidth, but honestly the same is probably true for the CPU load caused by USB bandwidth.
I will always downvote articles with “slams” in the title. It is undoubtedly low effort clickbait. …unless someone actually gets a door slammed in their face.
Revanced still works but it’s a cat and mouse game. Sometimes it will stop working but the next day someone will have found a workaround. Bit of a hassle to patch the new APK each time.
There is no one-size-fits-all architecture. Microservices are fine, but probably not for you.
I thought it was libvlc that covers that but no, it is indeed libavcodec which is part of the ffmpeg project. Does anyone here know the relationship between libvlc and libavcodec?
I’ve never felt silicon degradation on a CPU. But I can say that I’ve had a GPU with a stable overclock for years that started getting a bit flakey and I had to go back to stock settings. Of course for GPUs there are also more frequent driver updates. Maybe that effect was due to the driver and games also trying to squeeze more out of the hardware.
Piracy is not a real solution to the problem. Microsoft allows these sorts of things to exist in the background because they would rather lose out on some sales than lose market share.
Has anyone here been in a situation where they thought “man, 4g sure is slow. Hope they roll out 5g soon”? I guess they need a feature to put on the box, otherwise people might think their current phone is good enough.

The team at Microsoft that was working on it probably got put on different projects. There wouldn’t be anyone to put in the effort to get the code cleaned up of any proprietary libraries, internal references,… No way they are shifting people back around and paying for development to get this done.
Windows 11 isn’t bad. But it’s a sidegrade from 10. For example, I have an ultrawide HDR display and 11 is a must for HDR. But the damn start bar can’t move to the left anymore which is super annoying on an ultrawide.
That’s just a CPU with extra steps
IP rights is not a problem that needs solving. In fact, the existing legal system has ways of punishing copyright violations whereas the Blockchain does not.
Supply chain validation is also an example of the block chain “in action”. But the people that are entering the data on the Blockchain are the same people that were typing it in an email yesterday.
I used to be a fan of the technology as well but so far it hasn’t show itself to be useful. A solution in search of a problem.
Unless you have the ability to root it, does it matter? It’s likely a completely custom, stripped down distro anyway.
What ever happened to under-screen cameras? It was the one piece of tech on phones where I was waiting for it to improve.
Call people? For database software??? I’ll install postgres from my private dark corner tyvm
