It is with great disappointment that I report: #VR on #Linux just isn't ready yet. It would be, if #Valve would fix #SteamVR up to the same standard as the #Windows build, but in it's current state it's very restricted.

#Envision, #Monado, #OpenComposite, these things are great, and they get you 98% of the experience. It works better than SteamVR for crying out loud.

But it's that 2% of issues that will make you go back to Windows. I hate to admit it, but it's the truth.

Linux fucking rocks.

I was using my old gaming system from 2007(!) as a living room PC. It didn't even have UEFI yet.

It was time to upgrade, so I swapped the boot drive into a much newer AMD based mini PC from 2019.

It booted right up to the desktop, as if nothing ever happened. They are 12 years apart!

It said "No NVIDIA GPU found" during boot, but it still worked fine. All I had to do was uninstall the NVIDIA driver. Done.

Not alarming. There is probably way worse JS code out there. If you want peak performance, you could look into ways of avoiding allocations in JavaScript. But that's something you would have to research yourself, I'm afraid.

For starters, look out for code that handles large strings, and try avoiding creating copies of them.

Either way, you need more data. You reported that memory usage increased by 0.2 MB within 10 minutes. Does it increase by 0.2 MB every 10 minutes? If so, then yes, you have a memory leak.

Heißt das es wird dieses Frühjahr wärmer als sonst, und im Abschnitt Mai bis Juli sind wir uns dabei am sichersten?

You know these commercials for dishwasher detergents spreading fear about how your wine glasses aren't crystal clear and your neighbors are going to see it?

Has anyone ever run into that problem?

Has anyone ever cared about how *clear* a drinking class is?

I think that's a made up problem. Made up by the detergent companies themselves.

The word "progress" stands for both the progress in the pmOS community, as well as the slow progressing of this hour long build I was waiting for.

There is an open merge request: https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/merge_requests/6148

So, while waiting for something to build, I went around the house to see what I could do with the limited imagery I would get out of it.

You may credit them to my username, but the real credit belongs to the #postmarketOS contributors. Especially "DrGit", who got the sensor working.

Why is Microsoft so adamant about having TPM 2.0? The effort they put into ensuring that you can only run Windows 11 if you have a TPM 2.0 module, even though it is technically not required at all, makes me wonder: What is their plan?

Think of logistics and stock management. All you need is a barcode scanner module and there you go - a capable handheld scanner that will never go end of life.

I heard you like broken Linux camera drivers.

#Matrix is healing. I verified a session with another device and it instantly worked.

You need to sell your soul to afford an iPhone, and afterwards you're taught that you can only do things the Apple way. But once the hole in your wallet has healed and you stepped in line with the other blue bubbles, they seem to care about your user experience.

Google and Android is just chaos at the moment. They have no idea what they're doing anymore.

Also, if you don't want to pay more than necessary at fast food restaurant chains, you need their app. And I've heard they *absolutely require* GApps for location services so they can show you the way to the nearest hamburger.

Can you make it work without GApps? Probably. Do I have time for that? No, I'm hungry.

For example, the app I need to preorder my prescripton at the pharmacy is on the Play Store, of course.
