Isn't desktop Discord client essentially a glorified Electron application running in embedded Chromium engine? So you could just use it in Firefox and screen sharing on Wayland worked fine.

Also, if there is a kernel bug, wider usage will uncover it sooner. So I don't worry about it being a big issue.

Nvidia says the RTX 5090 will have a total graphics power of 575 watts and a recommended PSU requirement of 1000 watts. That’s 125 watts more than the RTX 4090
Thanks, but no, thanks. I don't want to see this power creep in new cards, regardless of who is making them. Same goes for price creep. I.e. these top end cards are really just to show off that they are "better" by cramming more power usage and more transistors in them. That's not really helping to make them better.

It would be interesting to see what AMD are going to do as a next step for 7900 XTX but I sure hope they aren't going to mirror Nvidia's nonsense approach for power usage / pricing for that just to say "we have moar fps!!"

What I'm interested in is performance of 9070 XT vs 7900 XTX.

Oh, Rise of the Dragon is a nice addition. A cyberpunk / detective game.
