Yes that one in the launcher settings and as noodlejetski said that command should do the same thing I think


Try disabling the steam overlay I had this issue with doom eternal. Assuming it’s on steam and since I believe this is ac syndicate disable there overlay aswell has this problem with division 2


Will do. Many people talk about launcher freezing thanks


I will try lawnshair first to see how I like thanks 👍 looks good


I figured it wouldn’t do much or anything for privacy but figured it would be worth an ask. Thanks


Are there more ‘private’ launchers for pixel phones?
Hello 👋 Disclaimer I would switch to try grapheneos if I could currently my phone from Verizon apparently can not have it's bootloader unlocked so... I am looking for launcher suggestions that are maybe less intrusive if that's possible. I mostly just want to get rid of the Google search at the bottom and the 'at a glance' at the top of the home page I can't figure it out. Edit: forgot my phone model 'Pixel 8 Pro'

I didn’t know credit card/banks sell your info… That sounds absurd

Edit:

How does Privacy make money? Privacy, like other card companies, collects transaction fees called interchange from merchants. We don’t, and will never, sell our customers’ data.

So there is no downside or cost to a customer using it there no subscription to use it that’s what I thought it was.


I’m by no means a privacy expert by I don’t see much upside to using the “privacy.com” referral thing referenced.


I forgot it once many months ago and never before or after



I’ve been using a modified client for about 2 and a half years now without being banned.


Rockstar replied to someone’s support request

We certainly understand that you are unable to login to GTA online through Steam Deck after the update.

We would like to inform you that the primary goal of incorporating BattlEye into GTA Online is to enhance the overall gaming experience by actively scanning for cheats and exploits, and preventing players with cheats and mods from entering online. The Steam Deck players will not be able to join GTA Online but should be able to launch single-player without any issues. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know. We are here to assist you.

I can definitely see Microsoft releasing a “gaming os” that will lock down your PC and basically make it a console in all but name. I would be surprised if it’s not in the works already for a handheld device.



Never heard of ladybird looks interesting thanks


My car insurance does not work on Firefox. Bungie website does not work half the time. Maybe some others I can’t think of. It really sucks. I just have chrome installed for when something breaks really sucks.



are you talking about hunt showdown the game or just playing with gamescope. For Hunt you need to use bleeding edge version of proton. Its in the beta setting of proton experimental.

Edit: as for gamescope yea it has not went well haha


Yes desktop resolution is the same resolution. If I’m understanding the github link it seems to be game specific and fixed for that game now (overwatch) I did not try with another game I was playing hunt showdown witch needs the bleeding edge of proton right now so maybe gamescope does not work? Sorry if I sound stupid not entirely sure thanks for the help though I will try another game today.


Ok you lost me. I don’t want to downscale or do any form of upscaling. I want to still render the game at 1440 p full screen. When I left those arguments blank it rendered the game screen at something small not sure what. My desktop screen resolution is 144. I might be misunderstanding.


How do I properly use gamescope
I am trying to use gamescope and mangohud at same time so I ran `gamescope -e -W 2560 -H 1440 -r 144 --mangoapp %command%` (to run at 1440p at 144fps I think) as the launch option on steam but when I load into the game aiming goes crazy like 100x sensitivity but cursor movement (like in setting etc is normal). Is the command wrong I also hit win+f to make full screen. Is this the right way to use gamescope? - nvidia gpu - endeavoros Thanks
fedilink

That’s actually crazy… I have had an Instagram since like the start but have no posts on my account. I guess I have a pfp but that’s it. I also don’t really get on it.


This is probably an unpopular opinion especially on this sub and something that will probably never happen realistically with the way the world is going but it is an extremely cool feature. If this was not done by companys that already harvest data etc and was as private as something like this can be such as your device communication to another device has a uuid that does not tie back to “you” if that makes sense or something not sure. Because there are some use cases that could be extremely good such as the one comment here about stalkers etc.


I did not know gamescope was a flatpak… For me gamescope did not do anything after installaling for like 2 hours of troubleshooting why it was not installing. I’m also on mint


Thanks for your detailed response. I did discover that my GPU load (etc 3080) was maxing out witch is the normal for windows aswell it’s just weird that I get like half the fps for the same amount of work. I don’t really play halo Infinite as much anymore and when I do I just decide to boot windows. I’m not exactly experienced in Linux or what to try to change to make it work better. I do plan on sometime upgrading to a newer os to try a newer Nvidia driver to see if that fixes it or makes it better. I do believe I have mouse acceleration off in my OS unless there are multiple ways to have it turned on.

Thanks again :)


Halo infinite on Linux
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.zip/post/12119895 > I have been using Linux to game now mostly for around 1-2 months and halo infinite runs but runs like crap compared to win 11. When I run the game on windows I get 144 fps almost constantly on Linux I get 70-80. I am new to this and not sure what to tweak or change to get it to run better if anything. I play via steam using proton experimental. The mouse movement also feels off like I have mouse acceleration on or input lag. > > Other games I have played have ran just as well on Linux as windows. > > Edit: OS is Linux mint > > Thanks

I remember playing this awhile ago it’s actually pretty solid from what I remember.


Yea so I tried nobara and to be honest unless I’m stupid it sucked… Constant graphical issues no matter the application(I could not play halo Infinite it started I old load game but then it would break). So I then put on mint after a day and downloaded Nvidia drivers through there GUI and then wine (not entirely sure what it does to be honest) and tried some games all worked great/well.


This might be my misunderstanding but when you say mainstream distribution what do you mean. My understanding is mint is built on Ubuntu similar to how nobara is built on fedora. So for example if something broke or I wanted to something on mint I can follow Ubuntu instructions (kind of) and follow fedora for nobara? Sorry if this is dumb question



I actually just found that on there page thanks :)


Won’t I have to install Nvidia drivers? This is my big concern if I’m being frank (I have a Nvidia card)


Thanks looking into it first on your list is mint I have heard alot of good things about this one might give it a go.


As a first time Linux user pretty much what should I use for gaming.
I have heard good things about [nobara](https://nobaraproject.org/download-nobara/). I don't mind doing a little thinkering to have things work but I also don't want to spend hours doing recharch on how to fix things. Edit: thanks for giving input everyone. I will try Linux mint and if it does not go well will give nobara a go instead. Edit part two I had to boot mint in compatibility mode because I got black screen for like 15+ minutes and then I couldn't get it to see more than one monitor and 3 hours later gave up....Just put on nobara will load mint to my laptop and try to learn more because I want to but also tryna game :) you will hear more from me

I’m guessing they signed that dotted line by making an account.



Yes agreed I have been looking for a new search engine I was using something like 4get or something but it wanted me to do a captcha every day.


Yes a debloater would be helpful probably. Just disappointing as part of the reason I went with the pixel was this option but now it’s not one.


How to de google or create a more private experience with pixel 8
So recently bought the Pixel 8 with my previous carrier being Verizon and was going to put Grapheneos on it but I had no idea that Verizon locks the boot loaders of their devices even though google does not. What are some things I can do to de google the device or make it more private like Grapheneos would. Or am I out of luck. Thanks
fedilink

Since your comment is recent. Do you know if I do this does it void insurance on the phone if I break it beyond repair. EX drop a weight on it (from experience). I read it voids warrentys but what about insurance? And if you do it to a phone and return/trade in that phone going from p6 to p8 is that acceptable. If you dont know all is well thanks


Never liked Android auto anyway :) was always annoying for me.


graphenos
Hey I am planning on putting graphenos (or another os) on my pixel (currently using a pixel 6 but will have a pixel 8 shortly). I have a few questions about using then new os. Mainly are there any apps that don't work. I use my phone for work being a OTP to logine daily etc is that still possible and reliable. There is one game I play on phone downloaded from the play store is that still possible? Lastly how do updates come can I download an update regularly from phone or do I have to plug into PC each time and know there is an update ready and how would you revert back to Google os if needed. Sorry if that is a lot I just feel scared to take the "leap" into what is for me unknown. Thanks
fedilink

Thanks for clearing everything up along of other threads always just said he was homophobic and that’s the only reason to not use brave.


I have had good luck with squawker it broke awhile ago but works as of right now.


If I’m being honest the switch from Reddit to Lemmy and this instance…
