Dark thick beer can also work in place of cocoa, in my experience.

AMD with ray tracing isn’t great. Not as bad as it used to be, but pretty lackluster overall compared to Nvidia (and to a lesser extent Intel’s GPU offerings). Linux ray tracing via Proton is also not as optimized at present, so that can take something “passable” in windows and make it unplayable on an AMD card in Linux. If you get something overkill for the resolution you’re playing at that can somewhat make up the difference.

If you’re doing 1080p the 6600 is pretty solid. Or 7600, really. It CAN do higher resolutions, but then you’d need to start doing FSR scaling or drop settings to keep things smooth/consistent.

I’m just here to say Bazzite all the way. No clue what that poster meant by breaking issues or problems with rollback… Bazzite is literally designed to be the antithesis of both. The ONLY time I’ve had a problem with it was rebasing my laptop between Silverblue and Bazzite. Technically allowed, but I wouldn’t advise it as that did cause me stability problems. I’d blame Silverblue more than Bazzite in that case, however. A clean Bazzite install has been solid ever since.

Self hosting Mealie could be a great option to take things into your own hands.

Oh baby, time to proselytize the masses of Lemmy and introduce a whole new set of suckers to “Fido”. It’s zombies with big Fallout vibes and is unironically one of the best C to B tier movies I’ve ever seen. It’s the kind of movie where it looks like everyone involved was just having fun with it, ya know? Check it out and make sure to let me know what you think!

Same boat as you. The HOA maintains a pathway in a wetlands reserve right behind the residential area and it costs less than $20/mo.

They don’t really care what you do besides the following: no farm animals/chickens, no structural changes to the homes without a licensed contractor performing the construction, shoot an email to the HOA if you’re going to replace your roof or repaint your house to keep SOME level of uniformity.

Mostly they don’t care. Hell, the CC&R’s and HOA incorporation docs literally say they won’t directly enforce things against you and leave it up to the neighbors to take you to court with the HOA docs/agreements as free ammo. So if you explicitly want to be a menace to your neighbors/piss people off or want to have the only bright ass neon pink home with custom additions in the entire neighborhood - probably not the place for you. Otherwise they’ve had no effect on myself or my neighbors whatsoever and the wetlands/park is really nice.

Anyone who ritualistically buys Dell. I believe Intel is on the record as having called Dell “the best friend money can buy.”

Are you on Gnome, KDE, or some other desktop environment? I know KDE Wayland and Nvidia do NOT play nice (presently).

Are you running it through Lutris? Steam with Proton? That error seems decidedly like a Wine specific problem, which Proton should have ironed out at this stage for this particular game.

*Unless you’re trying to play on hardware with incomplete Vulkan support. Then it’s a hardware support problem that is unlikely to be fixed in a reasonable timeframe.

Weird! I’m running Bazzite kde (so fedora based, like Nobara but with different tweaks and it’s atomic), and gamescope gives me zero problems. Might be some weird combination of software versions between gamescope and kde in your system. Or just a general kde config problem. I love kde, but all that customization can absolutely come at the price of stability at times.

Might be worth trying gamescope on another known working game too. Would help narrow down if it’s gamescope itself or the game you’re trying to use it on.

Interesting. I haven’t had any issues with gamescope for a long time… Back when it was new I definitely had issues running things with it… But it’s been a long time since that’s been the case. I can recommend running steam from a terminal and viewing the output after trying to run the game with gamescope. It might point you in the right direction.

Should be something like - “gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 -f %command%” I will also note that mine tends to crash/not launch if I don’t put Mangohud arguments BEFORE gamescope. The w and h arguments are just width and height resolution, so set those to match your monitor. The “-f” is for full screen.

In my experience this is almost always the compositor not properly syncing display frames with the game render frames. The best solution I’ve personally found is to run the offending game through game scope. It worked for Fallout 4 on my rx 7600xt gpu when I went to lock the fps to 60 (to avoid physics bugs, stupid Bethesda). Without game scope locking the frame rate caused horrendous stuttering despite solid fps.
