Or rather not mention them at all. He'd rather not bring attention to the topic to begin with.

So basically, "we didn't forbid anything that's already not illegal". Rather fake excuse.

If anything, high refresh rate displays are trying to reduce motion blur. Artificially adding it back sounds weird and counter intuitive.

Many games have it, but I always turn it off. I guess some like its cinematic effect, but I prefer less motion blur, not more.

Do you really need to break the abstraction? Current scenario where SPIR-V is let's say compiled by Mesa into NIR and then NIR is compiled into GPU specific machine code works pretty well, where optimizations can happen on different ph

This isn't about GPU APIs as far as I understand, but about having a high quality language for GPU programs. Think Rust replacing GLSL. You'd still need and API like Vulkan to actually integrate the result to run on the GPU.

Yeah, Nvidia can get lost with their CUDA moat. But AMD should be interested.

by shmerl 1y ago
Do you get any interest from big players like AMD? I'm surprised that they didn't start such initiative, but I guess they can as well back yours.
492.
by shmerl 1y ago
Looks promising. Rust for GPU programs running using Vulkan should replace the likes of CUDA.

It's not just about resolutions, but about refresh rates more importantly. For analog monitors it made sense that autodetection was bad. Digital ones should be reasonably well served by EDIDs that you'd never need to make your mod

Creating custom modelines is far from fun activity, bloat or no bloat. The last time I had to look into that was to work around amdgpu bug that affected screen blinking in KDE Wayland session.

Feels like a hype distro to me since they package WIP / unreleased features as if they are released left and right. It's not even using upstream kernel. Many newcomers especially don't realize this and when they hit problems

Not just feelings, they don't have actual intelligence, despite I in AI.

Yeah, it's generally pretty accurate.

It does make mistakes with mockingbirds in practice.

I've heard it caused all UK operated small forums to shut down. Basically a completely dumb anti free speech "regulation".

Still waiting for Pipewire + xdg desktop portal screen / window capture support in ffmpeg CLI. It's been dragging feet forever with it.

Killing R&D is usually the direct result of such "focus" which leads to dead end anyway.

I still find it a very questionable idea to run some GUI stuff on IoT device streaming the GUI to you. I just don't get why you would want to do that, vs let's say having an HTTP access. I have an HTTP server running on my printer

Yeah. You can to use LSP to work around it for usage search (which is really helpful), but it's definitely not a human readable case if function name is obscured.
507.
by shmerl 1y ago
Yeah, but they seem to think it's a feature, not a hindrance. I don't really understand the idea.

It's just weird. May be if you are used to it, it doesn't bother you, but I find it too easy to do something wrong with scope.

Well, C has such contest, not every language on the other hand.

Syntax could be less terse and abbreviated, I agree. But it's not unreadable. On the other hand some complain that Rust sometimes is too verbose, so I guess it's some balance.
