Quoting: legluondunetor you can try "GPU recorder" app:
https://flathub.org/apps/com.dec05eba.gpu_screen_recorder [External Link]

This project is great but it has a few limitstions, the setup is too long; unless this has been implemented in an update, you'll have to launch this program first, then select whether to Replay or Record, then you can use the hotkeys. The big thing with Steam recording feature is that it works automatically, and it turns on only when its needed (when you're playing).

I wonder if it's possible for one of these recording solutions to work in a way where it'd a small process waiting in the background, and when aa Vulkan application is launched, it'll start recording, similar to how MangoHud can be configured to work in any Vulkan game. I'm saying all of that as someone with zero programming knowledge at all, so don't mind me if i said something impossible and silly.

Heroic also uses wine 8-26 by default, and recommends against using Proton-GE if possible, one reason being Proton doesn't produce helpful logs if it came to it. I only play 2 games on that launcher (Among Us and Fall guys), and the default wine works pretty well.

Guardians of the Galaxy is a great game. I highly recommend it.

Quoting: WYWSo I guess no hope of Hopoo swooping in and fixing the RoR2 debacle that Gearbox created with the newest DLC.
If anyone isn't aware just look at the community discussion and patch notes, RoR2 is currently mutilated and broken in countless ways after the newest update.

Man, that sucks, I was going to try and get my friends back into it. How bad is it?

Quoting: pb"What do you think they will be working on?"

Given Valve's track record, definitely not Risk of Rain 3. :whistle:

Quoting: PyrateRIP Risk of Rain 3.

In any other article it would have been funnier, but Liam just mentioned above how Gearbox handled the 2nd game and will be responsible for RoR's future...

Party pooper.

I wish there's better ways to run these statistics, as I know many people including myself either directly or indirectly use browser agent switchers. On Librewolf (what I use), everyone has a Windows user agent by default.

Quoting: scaineNate Graham covered that in his post. The moment that you've just installed a desktop isn't the right time to ask for donations - you have no idea if you're sticking with the distro or desktop.

And I just covered that that welcome screen pops up on every new Plasma version... But let's make it more clear; so if a user keeps using Plasma, upgrades to 6.x, they'll get that window again with a mention to donate.

I tried it for a bit before remembering that I despise MOBAs, last good one was Vainglory (RIP). Game is probably good for those who like the Dota's and the League's.

Quoting: eldakingHmm, as much as asking for donations is perfectly fine and good (I'd consider a distro removing such a benign request to be very rude, almost hostile)... I don't think a system notification is the right place for it. I'd rather have it all the time in the login screen than having it pop up as a notification, even once per year. Having a static donate button somewhere in the settings would be better than a daemon to show a scheduled ad.

Maybe it is because of trauma about so much stuff using "notifications" to advertise, but I think that is a functional part of the system that should not be used for developer communication with users (and neither should command line outputs for your package manager, wtf Canonical). The same reasons that make it more effective than using proper communication channels are the reasons why it is bad: it is intruding on something users pay attention to because it is meant for other things. It is using privileged access to the system to reach users in a channel they don't expect. If someone deliberately chose to not engage on social media, e-mail and your website, should you really force an engagement? (An always-on notice/button feels ok because it isn't trying to grab your attention, it is just there in case you want)

You're right on the money, the notificiation tab should be reserved to stuff I actually care about i.e: emails, app notifications etc, and anything other than that no matter the intention is not acceptable for me. I mean, the image in the article with the "please donate" alert is giving me major Windows "please upgrade to 11" / "use OneDrive" / "try Recall AI" whiplash, I do not like this idea one bit.

I'll reiterate my point in my first comment; KDE already mentions donations in the welcome screen for every new major version, at least it does on Fedora. I got one when I upgraded to Plasma 6, and another one in 6.1, I believe this is a much better system that's already set in place, and since major Plasma versions happen more than once a year, it's a better system if you want to give out reminders more frequently. Planting it in the user notifications tab is a poor choice in my opinion.
