Haha, so you move from one bad decision to another? Being stuck at a lousy cloud company? Oh my!

I explicitly bought an AMD CPU and GPU and did not have any trouble with both of them ever since

Other than messing with my scaling and two incompatible applets it just runs absolutely fine. Glad I waited for a week - was thinking about installing it from testing.

I like transparent terminals and vsync. That’s my only reason for picom

My setup is 4k on two displays. The Intel GPU can’t handle them on 60Hz I guess. There is a thinkpad dock involved as well, so I think I’m stuck with HDMI and the dedicated gpu. I tried a lot of things :/

I’d love to run hybrid graphics with free drivers, don’t get me wrong.

I also love running steam games and video acceleration and with my previous setup it was mostly unstable. My current setup just works, with minor effects like reduced battery times and picom bugs.

I use Google with modifiers like plus and minus, quotation marks and most importantly with uBlocklist. This way I can hide seo bullshit with a single click

I use i3 on a thinkpad p50 with hybrid graphics (Intel + nvidia). Works sort of stable if I force the use of the dedicated card, but I’m getting like 1,5h of battery.

Video acceleration seems to work most of the times, but for a few weeks I have problems with picom freezing my screen, capping fps in games and video. Any ideas? It took me hours to have it running sort of smooth, so I’m hesitant to try out sway and ruin my daily setup

I like Thunder a lot.

I once read in an interview that putin said he’d had found wmds there if he was in charge :D

Same shit, different corporation. They established sort of a monopoly by lower prices and venture capital. Now they start to collect large amounts of money and go down.

Personally I dislike top-to-bottom-orgs like gp, while I see at the same time they are fighting for a world worth living in (as I do as well).

You can even tunnel your hardware directly to the VM, e.g. graphics card and have like a 2% loss on the virtualization side. Not much of a deal, if you know what you’re doing. Bonus: You can restrict the VMs network, do external backups etc.

What (sometimes) helps me in situations like that is exercise in a gym and a plan for the day that includes leaving the house. Most days are though tough.

Does it run with wine on Linux?

I use rofi (on my machine with dmenu theme) and after some digging I found this: https://github.com/Dartegnian/rofi-metro You may use this on any distro as there are very few dependencies to run this simple launcher :)
