Hi friends.
Ever since God of War was released on the PS4, I wanted to play it. Loved the original trilogy, wanted to give this one a go.
Since God of War has a "Verified" badge I ended up buying it. Unfortunately the experience has been really really bad. The game crashes every 10-20 minutes. The steam deck (OLED) completely freezes and I have to hard reboot the device.
I've googled about this issue, everyone seems to point at these graphical settings and some others but none seem to work.
I've tried several Proton versions, with and without GE but also no luck. The game crashes a lot. It's disappointing that the game has the "Verified" badge but is basically unplayable. No other game has ever given me any trouble.
Anyone had this problem and managed to get it to work? Thanks.
I work with a client that migrated their infrastructure to Microsoft. In order to connect to their Linux Server, I now have to Remote Desktop to their Azure Virtual Desktop thing. I'm not pleased but it's out of my control.
I tried remmina freerdp
but doesn't seem to support that Azure thing, there doesn't seem to be an option to add the workspace.
Any recommendations or do I have to setup a virtual machine just for this? :/ Cheers

Searching for product recommendations has become harder and harder over the years. I used to google or browse reddit for reviews, used them to create a shortlist of products and then actually dig deeper and compare them.
Lets say I'm in the market for a mechanical keyboard, but I don't know much about them. I use whatever search engine to look for "best mechanical keyboard 2024". The results are really bad, and I mean really bad. It's more of a list of keyboards to avoid, to be honest. The problem is not just google. Bing, duckduckgo, Kagi, Startpage... all results suck. The results are filled with AI generated pages or outlets farming affiliate links. There are a couple of good suggestions in the middle of the garbage but if 9/10 websites recommend a random razer keyboard, I'm inclined to believe it's an option worth considering.
Some of my friends say they resort to Youtube. I can agree that Youtube has amazing content creators that give amazing reviews and produce great quality content. But if you don't know anything about the subject, how do you know which content creator is good and which content creator is just farming affiliate links?
One of the things I loved about Reddit was that I could just go to /r/whateversubject and talk to what I felt was real people discussing products they loved. I no longer use Reddit ,and Lemmy, unfortunately, doesn't have a big enough userbase to have a good community for each type of product.
So, what's your strategy to find out good products on subjects you know nothing about?
Hi friends. For the second time, the left monitor of my custom one pro has been having issues.
Looking to buy an alternative, let me know your suggestions!
Hi friends.
I own a couple of games that are pretty much played exclusively with the Steam Deck's touch screen. There are some community layouts that do work but they honestly suck. The best example for this is Magic Arena or Football Manager 2024.
Holding the Steam Deck with one hand is a bit uncomfortable, the ergonomics aren't good. I'm sure there must be some kind I'm accessory I'm not aware of that improves this. I tend to play on the couch, a kickstand wouldn't be great here.
Thanks in advance!
I've been working with a Javascript (+ TypeScript) + Java + SQL stack for the last 10 years.
For 2024 I'd like to learn a new programming language, just for fun. I don't have any particular goals in mind, I just want to learn something new. If I can use it later professionally that'd be cool, but if not that's okay too.

Thank you very much!
EDIT: I ended up ordering the paperback version of the Rust book. Maybe one day I'll contribute to the Lemmy code base or something :P Thank you all for the replies!!!
EDIT: Solved! Check this comment!
I use a keyboard with an american layout. I find it much better for coding and actually love this keyboard to pieces. However, I still need to write in portuguese.
The dead keys in Microsoft Windows worked perfectly for me but the Linux ones do not. Some characters are not available and are replaced by characters that don't exist in the portuguese language.
In X11 I fixed this by using an .XCompose
file with the keybinds just like in Windows. Source here, it works perfectly.
In Wayland, the .XCompose
file works for pretty much all apps. Firefox is fine, kitty is fine, Vivaldi is fine. Unfortunately electron apps with the --ozone-platform-hint=wayland
ignores the .XCompose
file and I get the default keybinds. Since I own an nvidia card I really need these flags, otherwise the electron apps will aggressively flicker and/or eat letters while I'm typing.
I've searched far and wide, there are several open bugs in chromium, electron and wayland repositories. Everyone seems to be pointing fingers at each other for years and no workaround to make .XCompose
work seems to be available.
I'm wondering if there is an alternative way to customize the dead keys under Wayland. Thanks in advance.
