What is the state of Multiseat in Linux today? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Not only for saving money, as when we upgrade the PC, I'm going to be able to sell off most of the components that get replaced, but space savings is also a big part of it. We're going to be buying an RV to live full time in soon, and the less space it takes up, the better.

Plus, we have used it in this configuration for almost two years now, and it has worked without issue (EasyAntiCheat doesn't play nice, but we don't play many games that use it anyway). And honestly at this point, I kind of enjoy the challenge lol

What is the state of Multiseat in Linux today? (lemmy.world)
 

I currently have a PC running Windows 11 that my S/O and I use multi-seated with Aster Multiseat. However, we're both equally sick of Windows and are interested in switching to Linux.

However, all the information that I can find on multiseat in Linux are forum posts and unfinished wiki entries for Ubuntu and Fedora, and they all seem to be from around 2008-2012.

We're about to upgrade our PC to support two RTX 3060s and a Ryzen 9 (of course, including the usual two monitors and sets of peripherals).

Can Linux (preferably Fedora, as it's my favorite distro so far) easily support multiseating?

Will there be any performance issues using this method?

Is it possible to isolate applications per user? (Aster Multiseat doesn't do this, so sometimes an application can detect another instance on the other user and refuses to start...)

Thanks in advance.

Who is Henry Kissinger? (lemmy.world)
 

As the title says, who is Henry Kissinger?

I read this from Wikipedia:

"Kissinger pioneered the policy of détente with the Soviet Union, orchestrated an opening of relations with China, engaged in what became known as shuttle diplomacy in the Middle East to end the Yom Kippur War, and negotiated the Paris Peace Accords, which ended American involvement in the Vietnam War. He has also been associated with controversial policies, such as the U.S. bombing of Cambodia during the Vietnam War, U.S. involvement in the 1973 Chilean military coup, a "green light" to Argentina's military junta for their Dirty War, and U.S. support for Pakistan during the Bangladesh Liberation War despite a genocide being perpetrated by Pakistan."

It sounds like he was a bad guy, but I know there's more to the story than that with the collective hate I see for him here on Lemmy.

Sooo... don't buy a Pixel 8 because of a design flaw is what I'm hearing? Thanks for responding, Google.
