Discuss mechanical keyboards Topre = endgame edition
4 posts omitted.
>>
>>1171 Topre is cool! I especially like Realforce 84u and 86u, too bad I'm unwilling to pay the prices they usually go for. >>1176 I've tried them, the best way to describe the feeling versus full-travel switches is it's a bit like stubbing your fingertips with every keystroke, I don't find typing on them very satisfying.
>>
I am looking for a mech keyboard that's under 40 euro's... Anyone have a nice recommendation?
>>
>>1242 Aula F75 goes on sale often, you can try finding similarly priced chink boards.
>>
>>1242 Go to an "Action" shop and get one of their mechanical keyboards
>>
>>1242 May be just slightly above your budget but check out the Keychron C series, I think they're the best value for money you can get.

maybe a bit boring but i generally have nothing on my desktop except the wallpaper. even the taskbar is hidden automatically. i tend to just hit the search key and search for whatever program i want to launch instead of using desktop icons. it's comfy and i like it.

SteamOS 3.0 Anonymous 02/11/2025 (Tue) 17:56:59 No. 1081 [Reply]
are any of you planning on trying SteamOS 3.0 once it gets an official release? Valve has been putting a lot of work in improving Linux usability so i'm very interested in seeing the viability of switching to Linux full-time once an official release drops. as an nvidia user, i'm especially interested in their in-house wayland compositor. i have a history of using Linux on other devices, particularly Linux Mint, but always end up going back to Windows on my main PC due to nuisances. doesn't help that i have an nvidia card. what about you? will you give it a try? are you interested in the project or do you not care?

>>1231 whats the hype? sorry il te h illerate so I don't know
>>
>>1232 most of the hype is based around the fact that a well-respected and popular company in the gaming sphere is investing a lot of resources into a Linux distro and has a vested interest in it being streamlined and functional. i think the hype is that it could become the Linux Mint for gaymers, in the sense that it'll be the go-to Just Werks distro for them with the support and backing of Valve. it's the "year of the Linux desktop" meme but slightly less of a meme this time.

when it will be ready to use?

>>1235 ok rhank you

OpenGL, Vulkan and anything in between. Be it for animation, gamedev or just plain curiosity, if you're interested in graphics, shaders or engine development start talking. Talentless webdevs need not apply. >How much do you know? >What are you most interested in? >What are you currently working on? >What are your biggest achievements so far?

For the past couple of months, I have been working on an engine that will allow me to make VNs. It will use Live2D for models and Ultralight for easy UI. Right now, I am graduating from OpenGL and learning how to use Vulkan with the engine. I question if it's worth it to just have Vulkan as the one graphics API the engine uses and translate to metal/direct3d or what is possible.
>>
Been working on a graphics framework in C++ with DirectX, but microsoft has been pushing this AI shit so considering moving to linux. I don't mind having to work in Vulkan, but I worry about being able to effectively support PCs as a target platform
>>
>>1166 i'm a bit uneducated, but isn't vulkan pretty well supported? i've been able to use it almost since release.
>>
(391.46 KB 1920x1013 backround.png)
>>1166 Just put in dxvk so you can support both linux and windows.
>>
>>1166 I write Vulkan+SDL3 on linux with c++. I use the same code to compile on windows and it behaves the same unless I make a mistake with something that isn't in the c++ specifications. Just make sure to stay away from OS specific code and you'll be fine.

>>1220 >antisystemd autism Are you fine with all of the userspace belonging to a single company? Are you perhaps in love with Windows as well?
>>
>>1222 the systemd ecosystem is all lgpl, who cares if the company can change the license in the future, distro maintainers can just pull back to a free version or somebody will just write a new init system, every program that matters is using a framework to interact with systemd so porting software it to that new system would be a joke. I would be concerned too if the license was not permissive, but it is.
>>
>>1223 >distro maintainers can just pull back to a free version or somebody will just write a new init system that's exactly what systemd makes impossible by overtaking userspace, so you're in a very deep fallacy
>>
>>1224 it is not "overtaking userspace", see the framework point, something that works with windows and systemd will work with systemfuture too (after support is added to the framework, and it is recompiled). Unironically, name a program that relies on systemd native libraries, has no up-to-par alternative that doesn't and can't be re-implemented or ported in a week
