@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuWhen FPS is <1/2 the refresh rate, the frame gets re-displayed n times which allows VRR with FPS below the minimum refresh rate and has latency benefits14:32:19
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuThis is usually not implemented or poorly implemented, especially when you move the cursor (visible or not)14:32:59
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzoh TIL, thx!14:44:47
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzonly mention of that is in this issue:14:45:27
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzhttps://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-comp/issues/1152#issuecomment-259374302614:45:28
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorz

Cosmic explicitly queries and tracks the lowest possible refresh rate of the display, so we don't run into Low-Framerate-Compensation, which will double the framerate quickly and thus cause flickering.

@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuOof, that's wrong in many ways; I'll chime in with that info15:07:24
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzon an unrelated note, I'm surprised to see that gamescope session apparently works without issues on Nvidia nowadays16:14:50
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorz(at least I did not encounter any in my quick testing just now)16:15:06
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzand that also made me discover opengamepadui because that shows up in the NixOS options when searching for gamescopeSession16:16:34

@clay_pidgin:matrix.orgclay_pidginAnybody hosting a modded Minecraft server? 01:53:07
@clay_pidgin:matrix.orgclay_pidginI haven't hosted since before notch sold to Microsoft so I don't know how things work now. See several mod loaders fabric and forge, several servers, not all connect well. Would welcome some tips. 01:54:04
@clay_pidgin:matrix.orgclay_pidginI want to Host for my kids and their friends, so I will want a mod to protect the common areas and a way to let them protect their houses/bases. 03:40:03
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesOpen Parties and Claims is good for that03:56:28
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesFabric/Quilt are nice because they don't take three hours to launch the game. My very rough understanding is that Quilt is a community focused fork of Fabric so ideally I would use that but it's not as well maintained as Fabric so I just use Fabric03:58:26
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesWould recommend putting together your modpack from stuff only from modrinth because it's the only site for this that doesn't suck03:59:15
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesPrismLauncher can be used to improve the process of making and distributing modpacks03:59:57
@charles:computer.surgeryCharleshttps://github.com/nothub/mrpack-install then there's this tool which is good for setting up a server from a modpack04:07:33
@clay_pidgin:matrix.orgclay_pidginSo I'd run a quilt server with Mods from modrinth made into a mod pack with prism?05:06:20
@clay_pidgin:matrix.orgclay_pidgin* So I'd run a fabric server with Mods from modrinth made into a mod pack with prism?05:06:38
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesIf you so choose, yes09:04:55
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesYou could also pick a premade modpack from modrinth instead of making your own09:07:27
@matejc:matrix.matejc.commatejcRecently i found and deployed with https://github.com/Infinidoge/nix-minecraft on my nixos server, i choose fabric as well, nix-minecraft has even support for loading mods19:08:54

@infinidoge:inx.moeInfinidoge 🏳️‍⚧️To get a little bit more specific, nix-minecraft supports arbitrary symlinks and file copies into the server directory, so it can handle config, mods, etc. so long as you can get Nix to produce the file17:47:35

@woobilicious:matrix.orgwoobiliciousSway forces cursors to redraw every time the cursor moves, it can usually pin your monitor at max Hz usually, so it's probably not the worstt implementation, I actually wrote a patch to rate limit cursor updates that seems to work pretty well04:46:21

@woobilicious:matrix.orgwoobiliciousI've been having a few system crashes when gaming, perhaps some cache files got corrupted...hmm05:28:44
