I personally prefer the steam setup with steamlink. I'm not going to put a strong box in my living room, having one strong box "delivering" the games to my other pcs is pretty much enough.

I've now one box ("game server") which delivers the content either via steamlink to my living room or streaming to my notebook with screen in the work room.

Steamlink still has issues (the black flickering in the steam client can be annoying - all the settings/options to set I found were just temporary fixes, the flickering came back, I never had this while gaming though).

Don't know wht the reason is, but at 1920x1080 suddenly the stream increases the traffic heavily (as if compression was submitting black screen/actual screen/black screen/actual screen all over again). This may be related to composite and/or kwin as well, I just didn't figure out why this sometimes happens.

Quoting: subNow that Mesa has almost caught up, I expect Khronos to come up with OpenGL 4.6 soon.
Major new features incoming that will take 2 years to be properly supported by Mesa. :D

Doubt they get along well specifying 4.6 while Vulkan was just pushed out. Guess they still have a lot of work to do with Vulkan, even with the 1.0 spec out.

My bet is 4.6 will to some extend have spir-v support

Quoting: Eike

Quoting: STiAThe will not have any impact with his comments anyway.

There's been a thread - which he proudly linked to prove whatever - which got shut down, express not for the "+1"s (which technically could be considered spam according to Steam's rules), but due to the derailed discussion - due to the trolling, that is.

Showing support for something is not spamming by the rules of Steam. Though, developers may shut down such topics if they don't consider porting the game (would sometimes be nicer if they commented on this though).

Quoting: Al3sHow to not have heard of "meraco"? What a sad individual, I would love to have him doxxed.

He's steam level 0, so this is nothing more than a troll account with no games on it. He'd just create another and keep on doing what he's doing.

I personally just ignore trolls like this. I do not care, and as well as we won't influence a Developer much in his decision weather to port or not (because of our market share it's still rather an ideological question weather they want the game to be played by as many people or not - it's certainly in most cases no business decision), he will not have any impact with his comments anyway. I consider developers smart enough to make up their own mind, not caring for trolls like him.

At least he is owner of a XBONE :D. Must be something he gets by watching things on xHamster.

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLSadly TF2 is now (as many gamers reporting) broken on Linux. Look at valve github, many reports and no one from Valve carring about it. TF2 after The Tough Break for me is unplayable. Before I playing in max setting on my notebook, now I can't play even on low details. FPS drop (a lot of Linux gamers), game have micro lags (also many Linux gamers reporting) and often crashing or hanging X server.

So, maybe anyone have contact with anyone who know if or when Valve want to fix it? or how to fix it manually?

Just installed it for testing. There is for sure something true if so many are reporting issues. But it runs just fine for me.

Never liked Dota2, being a new player is just hard ...

Forced .. never really got around playing it, maybe I'll do a session in the living room soon since I have gotten my Steamlink (finally). But I'm currently a bit "locked up" with Talos Principle... such a cool game.

Since I am not sure if I want that game, if the demo is good it might convince me into buying..

I didn't even start the game yet (have the deluxe edition), so that will be pretty much a looong time until i get there..
