My desktop still has a 1060. It's not great in new games but still works.

That's been my experience. Steam controller, Xbox One controllers, 8bitdo sn30, 8bitdo ultimate mg have all worked fine for me on 3 different laptops, desktop, and steam link.

I have a laptop with an Rx 7600s. There was two games I had to use prime-run because they wanted to use the igpu instead. Other then that haven't had to. The two games were Verdun and Tannenberg. Isonzo works perfect though.

I have a laptop and a desktop with a GTX 1060 that run fine, and another laptop with a GTX 1050ti that is also great. Running Arch with KDE and Wayland. No problems.

My great grandpa was Chickasaw and had no facial hair, my grandpa had no facial hair, my dad grows a tiny thin mustache, and I have an ok beard and mustache. I didn't have to start shaving until my mid 20's. I maybe trim up and shave twice a month now. But I also let the beard just stay at a constant length and shave around it then trim the mustache. Sadly where most people's beard and mustache connect together that area for me is very patchy so I shave it.

I bought the Asus Tuf A16 AMD Advantage laptop. I installed Arch on it and it's been great. Got it for $600 on eBay. Put 32gb of RAM in it and a 2tb nvme drive into the second slot. Left the 512gb drive it came with.

2022 moto g power. Nice cheap phone with a shit camera that's still working haha.

Edit: also I do construction so the glass in front of the lens is definitely scratched. Makes for extra bad pictures.

https://lemmy.zip/post/31376363 first post. But yeah it was a mess. Could barely walk through it haha.

 

Ended up getting sick with the flu on my week off but I got mostly everything done. We also had 3 new baby goats last Sunday.

I also have 7 acres, 1 donkey, and too many goats.

I've been doing allot of blue grass/new grass recently. Even bought a mandolin a few months back. Sea shanties aren't too far off haha. Been learning allot of fiddle tunes and Irish stuff on the mandolin.

Took the week off just because I have a ton of PTO saved up because I never miss work haha. Decided I just didn't feel like going this week. Then decided might as well work around the house since I'm not working.

I don't think I know how to relax.

 
 

So I've been messing around with steam remote play. I've got 2 older laptops that I've got running with steam that streams to both of my kids tvs. Everything works great except today I decided to see if a Bluetooth headset would work for steam/in game voice chat.

When I tried it the laptops are using their built in microphones and unlike on Windows I don't see an option for the steam streaming microphone. I'm not sure if there is a way to get it to work but if anyone has an idea I would appreciate it.

I'm on Arch btw.

Edit: I didn't explain myself very well. Trying to have the device running the steam link app have a Bluetooth headset/earbuds connected to it then pass the microphone input to the laptop running steam.

 

I can't search in discover for any of the KDE software like kmail or KDE partition manager. On the apps.kde.org website when I click the install on Linux button it pulls up discover. But it says "Could not open app stream://org.kde.whatever because it was not found in any available software repositories.".

I have been googling for awhile and can't figure out what repository I need or how to add it. If any one could help I would appreciate it. Thanks.

 

Planned on also changing my daughter's brake pads but ended up having to run the snake down 80 times before it actually cleared.

 

I've been running Arch for about a year on my pretty old Acer laptop with an I7 8750h and a GTX 1060. Got a pretty good deal on a used Asus Tuf A16 with a Ryzen 7 7735hs and an RX 7700s.

Getting Arch going with my Nvidia card was a bit of a pain. Still have the random game that thinks it needs to use the Intel GPU (which I eventually solved).

So is there anything I need to do for this new laptop or since it's all AMD should everything just work?

 

Decided to try a few Repacks on Arch Linux. I used heroic launcher to install the games but now have no clue how to install the updates. Any one have any ideas how to get it to work?
