Linux support for WebXR in desktop chromium would be the quickest and most straightforward way.

Funny: Weston doesn't work with it, had to switch sddm to use kwin.

sddm-helper-start-wayland[3986]: "weston: ../weston-14.0.2/libweston/drm-formats.c:451: weston_drm_format_add_modifier: Assertion `!weston_drm_format_has_modifier(format, modifier)' failed.\n"

I know, I know, game engines can be dynamic and evict unused assets and stream new ones in, but why should they have to, just because GPU makers insist on selling GPUs with anemic VRAM sizes? What will games be like in few years? How often do you want to upgrade your GPU?

It finally became available today. The cooling is definitely loud, but tbh not that much louder than my Gigabyte 6900XT at max fan speed.
Btw here is running my 2 kde sessions (private and work) + Baldur's Gate 3 at 4k, freshly started and loaded into Ac3. Yes, VRAM usage is > 16 GB.

Eh, what else am I gonna do with my money, I ordered the Sapphire one because it has 4x Displayport. But so far the only one with actual availability seems to be the Asrock one, but well, Asrock is currently best known for frying CPUs with their mainboards...

Thanks for the info, very good to hear.

Works again after a Proton-GE update but it's still tiring. This has to be like the 3rd or 4th time it has stopped working.

Yes, native Linux games may also fail to work when updating dependencies or drivers, but at least that happens very rarely.

Warum das Kartellamt nichts dagegen unternimmt, dass kein Smartphone Betriebssystem, bei dem man nicht Googles oder Apples Datenschutzbedingungen zustimmmen muss eine Chance hat, muss ich wohl nicht verstehen.
Trotzdem sollte jeder verlangen, dass Digitalisierung webbasiert funktionieren muss.

Wenn man über Appzwang spricht, sollte man vor allem über Google Play bzw iOS Zwang sprechen.
Auch mit meinem Ubuntu Touch Smartphone könnte ich den App-basierten Parkplatz oder die App-exklusiven DHL Packstationen nicht nutzen: Konkurrenz im Smartphone OS Markt ist von vorneherein ausgeschlossen.

Yea, I think the scale of the game world feels off. You can traverse each of the maps in like 2-3 minutes so traveling doesn't actually feel like it takes days and you don't want to go to sleep every couple of minutes. Making traveling between locations a big undertaking could improve it probably.

AMD GPU? It sometimes (?) fails to read the EDID on boot and somehow ends up offering it as a 640x480 display to the OS, and login managers like to render for the lowest deteced resolution... Replugging headset power or Displayport connection usually helps.

The reason I did not expect it is that this happened literally a few steps away from a camp full of allies. It made absolutely no sense that Halsin bet his and Thaniel's life on just the 4 of us and didn't even tell us to take a rest before. I don't appreciate plain unfair encounters like that.
October 12, 2025 at 1:44 PM
For example I did not take a long rest before meeting Halsin at the lake.Yet Halsin decided to drop me directly into a huge battle where I had almost no AOE attacks. One last Wall of Fire, and lots of bombs and thrown fire flasks carried that fight but it was way tougher than it needed to be.
October 12, 2025 at 1:44 PM
I am definitely not a fan of all the mechanics. Am I supposed to take a long rest after every 2 fights, and before every conversation that I have any suspicion at all could drop me into an event? This just feels like forcing the play time to be longer for no reason.

Yep, they plain don't support Linux with their OpenXR plugin, see also their docs, just Windows and Android docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com...
If the editor runs with proton, then you could probably use that but it's probably better to use an engine that takes cross platform support more serious.

Überhaupt scheinen Leute immer öfter darauf trainiert zu werden, Zugangsdaten herauszugeben, alles nur zur "Verifikation" von Identität, Kontostand, Einkommen, etc.

New from 404 Media: landlords are demanding potential tenants hand over employer login credentials so a tool can verify their income. I was sent screenshot of the tool, Argyle, downloading much more data than necessary to approve the renter. Opt-out means no housing

Nur weil Finanzdienstleister "reguliert" sind, soll man einer Vielzahl (Klarna, Tink, Trustly, etc. etc.) von privaten Firmen einfach nur vertrauen, dass dort schon kein Schindluder getrieben wird? Nein danke. *Hust* Wirecard *hust*

Ich habe trotzdem noch geschaut, wie es funktioniert. Auch hier soll man wohl seine Bank Login Daten in eine Eingabemaske eingeben, die NICHT von der eigenen Bank ist. Auch wenn das von PSD2 so vorgesehen sein soll, gehe ich davon aus, dass diese Unart demnächst komplett verboten wird.
