Re: Interesting discovery regarding uk and Europe’s power delivery changes

I wonder if that would be better to handle at the pole?

< 240V dynamic voltage from supplier -> neighborhood pole with conditioner to 240V -> 240V to connected houses

It sounds like older devices not liking lower voltage could be in-line with planned obsolescence with the dynamic voltage, or aka ...

Re: Linux & Display Servers


Granted, Wayland is still flippin' new compared to X and there are problems, but good momentum going forward.
That started getting old after 5 years of hearing it :p

Until Wayland can drive the few 1000Hz mice I have, Windows already has Vsync/VRR/high Hz/multi-monitor working and no-sweat even ...

Re: Linux & Display Servers



I've seen distros defaulting to Wayland for years. For 8+ years until a few weeks ago, I could reproduce slower, inconsistent mouse/cursor movement with 1000Hz mice (multiple of em on different PCs) on GNOME on Wayland


I believe Wayland decided to vsync the mouse cursor, which I don't think ...

Re: Does Dyac2 still pose potential harm to the eyes?

Dyac sounds gross:

DyAc/DyAc⁺/DyAc 2 is designed to reduce motion blur in LCD displays. “DyAc”, which is short for Dynamic Accuracy, reduces ghosting in fast game scenes, minimizes screen shaking in rapid firing, and enables players to track enemies more easily.

Why would anyone want dynamic ...

Linux/BSD: Wayland, Xorg, and different DDX drivers?

A few days ago I was on FreeBSD Xfce with Xorg and Intel DDX no problem. I switched to modesetting, and although the desktop felt and looked relatively the same, I got significant eyestrain within a few minutes.

I can't quite rule out bad timing or coincidence, but I'm wondering if modesetting path ...

Re: My case with floaty/delayed mouse and keyboard.

On the topic of osu!, I did this video earlier (just real-time gameplay with tablet): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivip0sNnyhM

I get the floaty mouse feeling ordeal, but I'm thinking there's some hardware config that makes it an issue sometimes; I'm on Windows 10 low-latency tweaked and know it ...

Re: Does CTA-861 triple buffer frames?


Deleting every extension block is the best if your monitor can handle it.


I wonder how this works between GPUs and Windows versions?

With Intel UHD 630 (.2134 latest drivers), on Windows 10 and CRU I don't see anything under extension blocks (there's Default but it doesn't show info). Iirc ...

Re: Linux & Display Servers

I've used Linux primarily since Windows 10's release around 2015. Q/A went downhill late 2023 on multiple distros so I'm back on Windows :p

I'm convinced Wayland is a lie only entertained because people don't want to work on Xorg. Fedora specifically mentioned Xorg support as "maintenance burden ...

Re: useplatformclock (Windows stutters)

I use this on W10 21H2 on Coffee Lake (i5-8400H):

"bcdedit.exe" /set "useplatformtick" "no"
"bcdedit.exe" /set "useplatformclock" "no"

Older ATI/AMD GPU drivers would force HPET on reboots, so I have that auto-start.

As I understand, both of those at no disable synthetic timers or anything that ...
