Mesa RADV Driver Re-Enables Ray-Tracing Pipelines For AMD VanGogh APUs / Steam Deck (www.phoronix.com)

Last month The RADV ray-tracing pipelines support was enabled by default but then later disabled for VanGogh APUs, notably the Steam Deck. Now though with the latest ray-tracing code in Mesa 23.2-devel the RADV driver is no longer blocking the support for VanGogh.

Anyone here going to get a Commander X16? in c/retrocomputing@lemmy.sdf.org

I'm going to get one at the ~$300 level. Their discord channel is pretty active. David and some of the collaborators show up there pretty often. https://discord.gg/nS2PqEC

Ubuntu's NVIDIA "Enterprise Ready" Driver Package Now Enables Open GPU Kernel Driver in c/linux@discuss.tchncs.de
[–] linuxFan@vlemmy.net 2 points 1 year ago

It definitely is. If Intel continues to make progress, hopefully it will bring down prices for consumers across all brands. And Intel seems serious about open source drivers, they aren't quite there on Windows yet, but maybe soon.

Ouch. AMD's open source support for enterprise was one of the only (maybe the only) advantages they had in data center. I love AMD, but I wish they'd step up their software game.

Good dumb TV for my living room media center? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] linuxFan@vlemmy.net 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've been looking for a TV for awhile now, and I've found that there aren't really any practical dumb ones. There are a few models, but they're more expensive and have lower specs, cheaper panels, fewer menu options, etc.

Overall, the smart TVs are going to be cheaper/better because the company plans to make money on target ads, data mining, etc. Just don't connect it or enter a wi-fi password. Sadly that's where we're at now.

Yup, just the cheap antenna that came with the TV stick. But it did work with cable before Time Warner / Spectrum switched to cable boxes.

I dual boot Kubuntu ~~22.04~~(edit: 23.04) on the SD. Using a Pinnacle 801e TV stick and NextPVR for viewing.

The TV stick does most of the heavy lifting, CPU usage was really low. Drivers weren't an issue. It's already supported in the kernel.

I just got sick of that damn hedgehog struttin' around like he owns the place.

AMD Ryzen 5 7500F to launch this week, the first AM5 CPU without integrated RDNA2 graphics - VideoCardz.com (videocardz.com)
 

This seems kind of puzzling at first, as someone buying a 7500 is most likely to want integrated graphics.

But on the other hand, this could be AMD's way of selling higher spec chips with defects. If a mid-range chip has cores or compute units that don't meet spec, selling it as an 7500F is better than trashing it.

Serious question though, if I'm posting a video with no dialogue, do I need to choose a language? Is choosing a language just going to limit how many people see my video?

Is there a bot or service I can use to have an RSS feed auto-post to a Lemmy community that I moderate? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] linuxFan@vlemmy.net 3 points 1 year ago

These are the bots currently listed on Github. https://github.com/topics/lemmy-bot They don't specifically suit your needs, but you may be able to modify them and make it work.

Youtube filters that have made life more bearable for me. (vlemmy.net)
 

This filter removes a channel you don't want in your home page or search results. It will still show up if you search for it by name.

www.youtube.com##ytd-video-renderer:has-text(ChannelNameHere)

www.youtube.com##ytd-compact-video-renderer:has-text(ChannelNameHere)

www.youtube.com##ytd-rich-item-renderer:has-text(ChannelNameHere)

This filter removes videos with "reaction" in the title, but you can change it to filter whatever word you don't want to see.

www.youtube.com###video-title-link:has-text(/reaction/i):upward(8)

www.youtube.com###video-title:has-text(/reaction/i):upward(6)

www.youtube.com###video-title > yt-formatted-string.ytd-video-renderer.style-scope:has-text(/reaction/i)

My favorite. This filter removes a comment that only has the word "First" or "First.", ignoring capitalization.

www.youtube.com###content-text:has-text(/^first$/i):upward(6)

Is there anywhere to host gifs and mp4s in the Fediverse? (vlemmy.net)
 

Lemmy doesn't seem to allow uploading them natively, and it's hard to create a Mustangs Crashing or Idiots in Cars channel without an easy way to attach video.
