I'm making a joke in poor taste to express my disdain for people who commodify human necessities for profit.

You're moving the goalposts now; we were talking about an OS, not console vs PC hardware.

I play on a proper PC, not a steam deck. Of course there are going to be performance compromises on a portable device with an APU; that's got nothing to do with the OS.

I exclusively run Linux and I play modern games all the time without issues. You just click "install" on Steam and it works 99.9% of the time; I dont even look up the game to check if it works anymore. Also, have a look at some comparisons on YouTube — some games actually run faster on Linux because there's less bloat in the OS.

I don’t want to have to go through a lot of settings to find a way to make the game run properly

Those days are mostly gone

I would try searching "kio" in your package manager.

What distro are you on? Some don't install all available KIO workers and you'll have to install them yourself.

Is this something that is likely to improve going forward?

Like any FLOSS project, things tend to happen when programmers decide to solve a problem for themselves. If you don't the the skills to do this, you could always bring it up on the KDE forum under the "brainstorming" category, submit a feature request on the KDE bug tracker, or sponsor a developer to perform the work.

Seconding Navidrome. I stream from my Navidrome server to my phone, and then via DLNA from my phone to my HiFiBerry / stereo system. It's very nice.

Maybe not - I've heard those things can get really hot inside like a greenhouse

Editing to add alt text here, as Lemmy still does not support alt text in image posts: A fake screenshot of the FreeBSD Foundation donation page showing Apple, Inc. under the $5-$24 donation category. The screenshot is next to a poorly drawn four-panel comic.

Panel One: Title: "Apple HQ." Two people sit at a large wooden table. Person one: "We used BSD code, now it's time to contribute back." Person two: "Hold on, it's BSD licensed, right? I have an idea.

Panel Two: Title: "FreeBSD donation pipeline" A zoomed in view of a map with a large green line connecting the USA to Europe.

Panel Three: Three people, surrounded in a cloud of filth, scramble beneath the end of a large green pipe, reaching towards it with their wiggly stick-figure arms. One person is leaping in from out of frame. The people have bags under their eyes, many missing teeth, and are wearing sack-like clothing crudely mended with patches of random fabrics.

Panel Four: The pale face of one of the three people beneath the end of the large green pipe, mouth open revealing their jagged yellow teeth as they attempt to catch a trickle of liquid seeping from the end of the pipe. The liquid is captioned: "$24."

 

c/incense has been abandoned, and I'd like to make something of it / add a banner, etc.

 

Happy to see commercial printing on this new platform.

I've been working on my boot time lately, but I realize I really don't have a good handle on what it should be. I am hoping some of you will share yours so we can all get a feel for it. I'm including some HW specs here also because I've heard it can be relevant:

64GB RAM, 2 x 2 TB NVME:

Startup finished in 9.922s (firmware) + 1.151s (loader) + 3.506s (kernel) + 4.006s (userspace) = 18.586s graphical.target reached after 4.003s in userspace.

Edited to add boot time detail

 

I love putting this stick on in the evening. It's so lush for the price.
