@pythno IIRC ou can `$ watch -n1 cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/power_now` to get the instantaneos power usage and probably some other file in /sys/class/pci/your_gpu_pci_bus/state to check wether your gpu is in D3cold (sleep) or D0 (awake and active). And for me the problem was a bad config with drm modesetting. Basically i just read the arch wiki and tried stuff that seemed somewhat relevent to me and my laptop until it worked...

On nvidia nvidia-smi was useless since it wakes up the gpu...

@pythno For your battery life it could be an issue with your dedicated gpu not going to D3Cold state (sleep mode) when not in use, especially with nvidia proprietary driver. On my laptop power consumption went from 30-ish watts when having no app opened down to 5-8 watts after fixing this (depending on the brightness of the screen and the keyboard backlight). I gained like 5 hours of battey life just by fixing this

@playdate @2DArray This is interesting to improve tracks/replay sharing in Trackminia !

@EndeavourOS Cool! There's a new release! But I reinstalled eos yesterday x)

@djlink My guess is that they only asked hyper-casual-mobile-ads-and-IAP-based game companies and super greedy publishers

@sschoener Speaking of these samples. Is there a way to aggregate the samples from several invokes of a function ?

Let's say you have 15 monobehaviours doing their update in a single frame, it would make some sense to accumulate the samples.

As far as I understand the call graph, the numbers displayed are only for a single invoke of the method

@2DArray It might also allow for online sharing of replays and editor tracks, in addition to the current WebSerial solution. It would be more practical than having to plug the console to a computer

@playdate @2DArray realtime multiplayer on Trackminia maybe ? That would be absolutely insane :D (not trivial to implement though)

@2DArray I completed 5 campain tracks for now, and it's a really fun racing game so far! :D

@ZoidbergForPresident @STJV Ca licencie et ça fonce dans le mur ?

@travisfw or maybe you meant more like providing a stream of random floats (representing something meaningful in the game) and outputing an overlay on the screen ?

@travisfw Nvidia's DLSS ? A machine-learned post-processing effect whose job is to upscale the framebuffer. Not a gameplay feature really but still machine-learning (or "AI" for marketing purposes)

@sumokirby pretty much what happened for me in 2024, with a few exceptions during steam sales XD

@sumokirby I need help to take a break on Balatro and Slay the Spire...

@aeva It seems there is a 27.2 available through the app store but not yet on F-Droid, i'll tell you when i get the update

@aeva 27.1 installed with F-Droid and no issue for now. Is there a newer version on the app store ?

my new video is out!

this one is a lot more personal than my usual stuff, but I've felt a need to express this for a long time

thumbnail with three search engine input fields, with green spooky AI tentacles wrapping around them. the fields read "it's not, just, Google"

@jjacobsson There are OTP apps on F-Droid that allow to import/export their database to a single file that you can backup as any other file. If that can be useful to you

Cyber security guy: Don't write your password on paper and change it regularly. And use 2FA with an authenticator app for even more security!

User: But what if I lose my phone?

Cyber security guy: Then just print these special codes

It feels like there's a serious design flaw somewhere
