Yeah, that power metric can fluctuate wildly depending on how smart their display controller is. Throw VRR and / or event driven rendering into the mix and you get most of the benefits of both with the added benefit of limiting rendering bursts.

Sway still primarily counts as a WM + Compositor, but considering it has keymaps, autostart, and libinput config mechanisms embedded in it, I would say it borders a desktop environment.

The inhibit_idle specifier is cool, thanks for the pointer. This two liner can be replaced with:

for_window [all] inhibit_idle fullscreen

Or it's a cheap external nvme chassis with a Samsung 980 Pro. Had to run that when I was copying files from one of my old machines and boy, it will absolutely overheat to the point of failure.

Gave me quite the scare when I started getting read errors and then it dropped off the bus. It shutdown to protect itself but it certainly didn't seem like that at the time.

That's certainly news to me. I suppose it just really needs the latest version. There was a noticeable improvement to stuttering and fps.

That game is interesting though. Some things the community sees as bugs, like the audio glitches, have been claimed as an artistic choice.

  • Sable - but you'll want to use protontricks to install dxvk
  • Stonefly
  • Far - 1 & 2 are both good, but I still prefer the first one
  • Vane
  • Lightmatter

Please people, these stand alone guides are fine but continual use of the wiki ensures it is kept up to date. These should not act as or be used like a substitute.

The real problem: Define beginner distro

Every user is starting from a different point. There is no such thing as a beginner distro. You can say this distro is good for people who can grasp the idea of a command line or this distro is good for people who have no idea command line interfaces exist, but that doesn't differentiate between beginner friendly or not.

Man we're going back to those goofy keyboards with single row LCD screens that they used very briefly in writing classes in the US. Can't remember what they were called

Edit: Alpha Smart word processors?

Just note that if you somehow get out of those meetings, incorrect information will be propagated somehow. Even if you put the correct answers in an email and send it to everyone involved. If someone has a way to prevent that from happening please let me know. It's killing me slowly.

Yeah, I've been using it for about a year now. It's a little frustrating that it will learn my misspellings before it suggests a proper replacement, but otherwise I have no complaints. Direct upgrade over the stock AOSP keyboard.
