there’s no notepad equivalent and only a notepad++ equivalent

I believe you’re looking for KWrite.

And that’s honestly all that’s needed, the official translations are usually perfectly fine. The elaborate typesetting is what makes the fansubs so good.

What does it mean to “process shaders in real-time”?

Processing them as they’re loaded, quickly enough that there’s no noticeable frame drop. Usual LLVM based shader compilers aren’t fast enough for that but ACO is specifically written to compile shaders for AMD GPUs and makes this feasible.

Pre-compilation would in theory always yield higher 1% lows yes, but it’s not really worth the time hit anymore especially for games that constantly require a new cache to be built or have really long compilation times.

I think the one additional thing Steam does in that step is transcoding videos so they can be played back with Proton’s codec set but using something like Proton-GE, Proton-cachyos or Proton-EM solves this too.

Disclaimer: I don’t know how the deeply technical stuff of this works so this might not be exact.

If you’re talking about the Steam feature you can safely turn it off, any modern hardware running mesa radv (the default AMD vulkan driver in most distros) should be sufficient to process shaders in real-time thanks to ACO.

Waydroid works really well to run Android apps on mobile Linux, even for games. Doesn’t help for banking apps though as they’ll usually lock you out due to not passing Google safety checks.

Thanks, that’s really neat.

How are the numbers tracked?

For me the biggest gripe is frame pacing, can’t seem to ever get it to be as consistent as running on-device.

Someone saw the latest John Oliver! Really great video, I’m glad high profile allies like him still exist for the sake of my American trans friends.

You ever wondered how 90%* of chickens in the US are female? Almost half of them are transgender!

*not the real number, it’s (un?)surprisingly hard to find.

I hate how power hungry the regular desktop platform is so having capable APUs like this that will use less power at full load than a comparable CPU+GPU combo at idle, is great, though it needs to become a lot more affordable.

It was fairly easy for someone to know you blocked them since they wouldn’t be able to react to your messages or suddenly couldn’t dm you anymore, I assume that won’t apply to this.

The real fair pricing would’ve been to only charge for the credits you actually use.

SwayFX has this with the blur_xray option, though it’s a tiling wm.
