I've used the web clients for the past 20 years. I've only used Thunderbird/evolution/outlook in Company context.

Privately I don't send out that many emails.

Missed opportunity due complain about recall, bloatware, spyware and ads in an OS people pay for.

Cool! I haven't used an email client in over 20 years. But it seems like a very handy feature for those who do.

Happy to see it's available for Linux too!

The issue was related to the Linux scheduler. So if you had a different scheduler than what moet distributions have as default, you might not have experienced that issue.

There are a few people in the comments that reported that they compiled a different scheduler and that the issue completely disappeared

It was in my case. Issue completely vanished overnight. I had a working work around where I lowered certain settings and it only occurred sometimes at round ends or when I pressed tab to view the scoreboard. Usually alt-tabbing resolved it.

After they released that fiz everything worked like normal again.

They fixed an issue. They broke something in an update in July and fixed it a week or 2 ago.

One can be used in an airport/aircraft/train and the other can not.

One is fit for travelling and the other is not

But then how can we monitize our gamers if we can't run at the kernel level and do whatever we want?

We're selling games at an overpriced rate and putting tons of gambling and Mtx in our games. But this is unsustainable. We'll go bankrupt at this rate! Just last week we had a meeting with the CEO complaining he couldn't buy his fifth luxury boat because he had spent that years bonus on his 2nd aircraft. He said heads might start to roll at this rate to keep the company float. Where are we supposed to find the money to index 5% on the wages.

Some upper manager somewhere. Probably

Is anybody here playing cs2? The game runs natively on Linux, but its more laggy than it was on windows for me. If i run cs2 in proton it works better than natively on Linux, but I'm unable to play competitive that way.

My issue is the following: the game just hangs/freezes occasionally. The duration is random. Could be 3-5 seconds, could be 10. Could be that I'd have to restart the game.

This occurs sometimes in the warm up before a match or when the bomb explodes.

It happens most consistently when i press the escape button in-game.

I'm running it on nobara/KDE. I've got the latest graphics drivers, tried validating the game files.

The game is set to run full screen ( as windowed fullscreen caps the framerate to 60, while the screen supports 144 ).

I can add more hardware info if required. The PC is 4 years old so its not ancient, but also not latest and greatest ( amd CPU+nvidia rtx 2080ti ).

Anybody else ran into this behaviour and ( hopefully) found a solution for it? Googling only left me with sites telling me to upgrade my gfx drivers on windows or 6 year old threads of CS:GO on windows.

Switching between wayland and x11 didn't really seem to make a lot of difference. It feels a little bit better on x11, but negligible.

There isnt really anything running on the backgroudn except discord.

Thanks!

How the US does not read this as: "I was bribed by the CEO of < company > to enact policies that benefit them" is beyond me.

Be better America.

Hello fellow Linux gamers!

I've recently switched to nobara for gaming. I've had no real issues so far and it's all running smoothly! Queue my Xbox controller.

A year or two ago I bought an Xbox wireless control ( 2020 version according to the order ). Now I wanted to use the controller, but it is not being detected. The light keeps blinking. On nobara itself it looks like it mounted the dongle as a USB Stick.

That would explain why the controller isn't connecting.

How would I best go at tackling this? Any tips? I've already ran the following command:

nobara-controller-config

This installed some drivers and required a reboot ( which I did ).

Thanks in advance for any guidance or tips!

It enticed me to start gaming on Linux. So its definitely doing some enticing

Legitimate interest is just bullshit.

Can I have your:

  • wallet
  • emails received
  • telephone number
  • pin code
  • visa card numbers
  • browser history
  • home address
  • dates you won't be home
  • alarm code

I too am legitimately interested in this data.

Hello all,

I've recently gotten a MacBook pro at work. In the past I've mainly used Linux, so the switch isn't super drastic. I'm mainly getting used to the shortcuts. My work mainly involves DevOps related work.

Things I've installed so far ( besides standard things like an IDE ):

  • neovim
  • brew
  • rectangle
  • jq / uw
  • docker desktop
  • iterm2

I have some coworkers excited about Alfred, which I have installed, but haven't really used yet. Looks like an enhanced spotlight?

Any apps/tools you can recommend which makes your life easier on Macs? Hidden productivity gems?

Can we boycot the companies that do this already. I get the AC IP is nice, I've certainly enjoyed my fair share of their games.

But the ad industry is completely getting derailed. What's next ? Watch a 15s promo video every time you want to open te fridge? Watch a promo video before you can open the door?

Have your walls randomly show you ads?

Stop buying their shit. Regardless of how decent the game is. Punish them for the predatory practices. Demand refunds.

But no. People will likely be outraged, and then next game angry and then the next game they'll suck it all up and complain about the good all days.
