@Nibodhika @I_Has_A_Hat umm, what does the chinese language have to do with any of this, I wonder?

@GustavoM @simple hmm, interesting. How do I make pacman work on ubuntu? I mean, just because it’s technically possible, doesn’t mean it’s at all easy to do, in any stretch of the imagination

@brunofin @xan1242 Idk, I use them all the time. And furthermore, emulation needs to be precise and fast, not written in some modern technology, if the need doesn’t outway the efforts put into it. Or, maybe I’m mistaken, I may have misunderstood what you mean. So, perhaps you can clarify?

@ObviouslyNotBanana @grue it’s much better now than when people were using jack incantations and trying to figure a whole host of stuff out, which in most cases was hardware specific and very esoteric, needless to speak of people chasing lowlatency setups, in so many weird directions that afew people actually came up with kernel patches to apparently make the whole thing have 0 xruns. Yeah, absolutely weird, better that this doesn’t happen anymore hopefully

@Chais do games actually output 5.1 nowadays? Most of those I know use libraries like steamaudio, which simulates it using in-app hrtf, mixing the signal on its own

@n3cr0 ahh, I guess that’s more or less normal hrtf, which any respectable audiogame can replicate

@Chais @n3cr0 how do you replicate that with pipewire anyway? Sure, you can rig up the nodes and all, but are games actually outputting surround nowadays, or how do you benefit from all that work?

@noodlejetski conduit, the matrix server? that’s definitely weird

@superguy windows or linux?

@ReverseModule @Excrubulent is it only me, or the video has no sound at all?

@darkeox @NZV65572 @Oha what is, nvidia or amd? amd does have raytracing, and nvidia has vulkan with proprietary drivers as far as I know, but maybe I’m missing context because my server didn’t load all the thread

@Chee_Koala @SleepyWheel ubuntu studio is not a DAW, it’s a music producer focused ubuntu flavour. If you want an open DAW, did you try zrythm?

@Silejonu @Natal @pete_the_cat then, how is it that usb keys and drives work with both windows and linux, once they have been formatted? Is there a different filesystem involved in that case? I, for one, didn't have issues writing on a USB drive, is that an uncommon scenario?

@mammut @boo agreed, and that’s what they rely on, though valve isn’t by far the worst offender here

@woelkchen @Bilu47 I recommend that thing would be under the gpl, but to each their own

@Tersevs awesome, thanks for the explanation! I wanted something like this for a long while, especially since I usually game in weird places which are far from the computer. Also, I looked on flathub, and both apps are on there, even the server. Why would run the server as a flatpak, I don’t know, but I know it’s there, so yeah, gonna try this now.

@Tersevs can you detail the process a bit? where goes what component?

@popcar2 yes, the ntfs problem hit me as well, as I previously commented on other occasions. Also, I didn’t think that intel mobile integrated gpu’s wouldn’t be recognised by opengl or vulkan, but that’s how it goes apparently

that’s possible, ntfs and linux are known to not work very well, as you probably have seen in this thread.

@MyFairJulia wait, you can run games from ntfs drives with linux? what ntfs driver is recommended for that? is ntfs3g broken? I’m asking because each time I try to do something like that, I do get permission issues, as you say. Worse, each time windows would make a file, the linux side would come up with a permission error when trying to access it. That’s why, I don’t use ntfs stuff anymore at all
