Recommend me a controller. - Lemmy.World
Hal Effect sticks are a must. I’m looking for a controller because my PS4
controller has some pretty horrible stick drift. I don’t want a repeat of that.
PlayStation layout is also a must. Never understood the appeal of the wonky xbox
layout. Must also ship to Europe. Preferably a company from Europe. But outside
of Europe also works if shipping and customs don’t add twice the controller’s
cost to the price. I’m asking this in Linux Gaming, so obviously must work with
Linux (though so far I’ve had less issues getting controllers to work on my
Linux desktop than I’ve had with Windows).
What good alternatives to LEGO are there?

What good alternatives to LEGO are there? - Lemmy.World
As a Bionicle fan, LEGO recently burnt me and the whole fandom pretty badly. So
I’m pretty much giving the whole company the middle finger. I know there are
probably a bunch of good alternatives out there, and I remember some being
mentioned to me previously, but I don’t know where to find them. I’m looking for
LEGO and LEGO Technic alternatives/knock-offs of good quality. Preferable
European in origin rather than Chinese. They don’t need to have popular or brand
themes, or be copies of actual LEGO sets, just good parts at good prices.
(Linux) Major graphical artefacts/glitches in Oblivion Remastered

(Linux) Major graphical artefacts/glitches in Oblivion Remastered - Lemmy.World
First, my specs: - AMD Ryzen 5 5600x - 32 GB DDR4 RAM - Intel Arc A770 16GB -
Ubuntu 25.04 - 6.14.0-15-generic kernel - Mesa 25.1-rc3 Let’s get one thing out
of the way real quick; no, the GPU isn’t dying. Oblivion Remastered is the only
game this glitches happen in. I’ve taken these screenshots in the Imperial City
as that’s where the artefacting happens most drastically, however it still
happened in the starter dungeon/sewers and outside. I know that AMD GPUs had
some weird visual bugs, but the ones I’m experiencing are not the same, and I
can’t seem to find anyone else experiencing these problems (after days of
searching. It sometimes seems like I’m the only one with an Intel card in the
world). I’ve tried running with Proton 9.0-4, ProtonGE 9.27, and the newest
Proton 10, but I don’t think it’s an issue that can be fixed with merely running
a different Proton version. Game compiles shaders upon first launch (I
reinstalled a few times) so… it could be an error with how shaders are
compiles…? Maybe…? Either way, I’m at a loss now and need help figuring this
out…

"oneAPI kernels loading: got a runtime exception "The program was built for 1 devices" Build program log for 'Intel(R) Arc(TM) A770 Graphics'" - Lemmy.World
First, some technical elements out of the way: - OS: Ubuntu 25.04 - CPU: Ryzen
5600x - GPU: Intel ARC A770 - MESA: 25.0.3 (can’t get 25.0.4 from Kisak because
they’re currently not supporting Plucky). - Blender3D: 4.4.1 (though the same
problem occurs on the previous 3 versions of Blender). I had decent performance
in Cycles with my new card, but didn’t have BVH raytracing support and Blender
told me to get “level-zero-raytracing”. I found this on GitHub, and checked on
forum posts if this was indeed the thing I needed, then built it following the
instructions. The resulting “libze_intel_gpu_raytracing.so” file I placed in my
~/usr/lib directory. Then rebooted my PC for good measure. Now when trying to
render in Cycles it throws the error in the title. I can probably just delete
that file and go back to rendering without BVH on the GPU, but I’d rather solve
it and use the GPU for what I bought it. Has anyone had this issues before? How
did you solve it (if possible)?

Android rooting tools? - Lemmy.World
I’ve rooted my android phone many years ago. Back then that was a different
phone than I have now, and I was still using Windows. I’m now trying to find a
way to root my current phone (Motorola g62 5G), and have no idea how to do it
through Linux. However, I seem to only be able to find instructions that are
specific to windows. How would I go about doing this on Linux (specifically
Ubuntu)?

How could a disruptor weapon feasibly work?

How could a disruptor weapon feasibly work? - Lemmy.World
First a definition for this question, because there are many kinds of sci-fi out
there and they sometimes liberally use cool sounding words without explaining
them: A disruptor is a kind of weapon that weakens, or “disrupts”, either
material bonds (breaking a material into molecules), molecular bonds (breaking a
molecule into atoms), or atomic bonds (breaking an atomic nucleus into protons,
netrons, and free electrons. Almost like instantly turning into plasma).
Temperature can do these things, but the idea behind a disruptor, specifically,
is that it happens through some kind of catalyst, rather than brute-forcing with
insane amounts of heat. Would such a weapon physically be possible (even if we
don’t know how to make them just yet)? How would a target realistically behave
when hit by a disruptor?
Is there a Linux drawing tablet, or a tablet Linux can be installed on?

Is there a Linux drawing tablet, or a tablet Linux can be installed on? - Lemmy.World
I have a 2nd generation XP Pen Artist 13. It’s a great tablet and I’ve managed
to make it work with my Steam Deck too. But… It’s basically an external monitor
with pressure sensitive surface, so still less portable than an actual stand
alone table. So I’m wondering if there is a tablet with a pressure sensitive
screen and battery free pen that either comes with Linux or can install Linux
on. The programs I use for making art are Krita, Gimp, and Blender 3D.
