Good luck :)

It says "UNSUPPORTED: VSYNC is not available on the Linux platform." and runs at a stuttery 133 fps. This test shows 144 Hz: https://fpstest.org/refresh-rate-test/ The Nvidia settings app shows 144 Hz + VRR are active and I can see that the cursor is rendered at >70 fps.

I'm pretty sure that my desktop is drawn at 144 Hz (on the primary display) and xrandr also tells me that that's the active mode. 🤷‍♂️

Edit: This is with Nvidia (proprietary drivers) and VRR monitors.

Is that generally an issue on Linux Mint / Cinnamon X11? I have a 144 Hz and a 70 Hz monitor and they seem to work fine....

stuner , 1 month ago to Selfhosted in Generate document from templates and database

One way to do it is have a small Python (or any other scripting language really) script that performs text replacements in the Latex source file. This is much easier in Latex because it's plain text. I don't know of a solution that doesn't involve writing your own code (apart from LO/Word serial letters).

Is using Latex an option? I've done that and it works quite nicely. You can easily populate a template e.g. using Python.

I'm not sure I follow... Did the Fedora Council actually take a decision?

stuner , 2 months ago to linuxmemes in Don't dare to question Gnome

I understood Matthew's position as "this should be discussed in the Workstation WG first", not as a "no":

in favor of the process outlined above (tl;dr: talk to the Workstation WG, and if that does not come to a satisfying outcome, file a Council ticket for next possibilities).

It also seemed more likely that they would promote KDE without demoting Gnome.

But was there a follow-up on that (e.g. in the Workstation WG)?

Of course it was patched in all affected Debian versions: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2014-0160

The article says they are aiming for 1W in the next couple of years, which can probably do it.

They won't magically improve the power density by three orders of magnitude. They're just trying to defraud their investors.
