If we go into detail, VR headsets also use thick lenses and optically the screens are like 2 meters away.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•AMD Posts HDMI 2.1 FRL Patches For Their AMDGPU Linux Driver (with full HDMI 2.1 support coming)English
3·1 month ago4K 120Hz is a really common TV input and even this is not possible in HDMI 2.0 without 4:2:0 chroma subsampling which is visually lossy especially in desktop usage.

3·1 month agoThey already mentioned DSC is lined up to go out but still needs compliance testing, so the code is probably ready. The “could” wording is by Phoronix not the AMD developer.
This work was already finished 3 years ago but couldn’t be sent out due to the HDMI Forum blocking it.

21·2 months agoAI would never generate an arbitrary detail like that curtain awkwardly folding at the right or the offensively plain singular bottle at the top left.
And this picture is older than AI.
I needed Windows the other day and it wouldn’t even let me change the volume without activating it.
Pretty sure it uses memory compression, Linux equivalent would be zram. Due to the speed and compression ratio of modern compression algorithms like zstd you can usually get double your RAM capacity in fast low latency on-memory swap. Not sure what macOS uses specifically but the compute is easily there.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•PC Gamer: "I'm brave enough to say it: Linux is good now, and if you want to feel like you actually own your PC, make 2026 the year of Linux on (your) desktop"English
7·5 months agoI’m using a QD-OLED monitor and love HDR for movies or tv shows but with gaming I have several gripes that don’t make me enjoy HDR as much, funnily none of them caused by Linux.
A lot of games suffer from pretty terrible HDR implementations so it might just end up looking worse than SDR. Additionally, at least on this display tech, HDR is a trade-off between stable brightness (TrueBlack mode) or peak brightness (Peak mode). I find TB mode to not really pop enough to justify HDR, but peak mode to be too distracting for gaming since turning your camera can quickly change the overall brightness and make the image flicker.
I would say in theory HDR could be a huge increase in immersion for gaming but the tech and execution isn’t really there for me yet.
HDR support on Linux though I find is in a pretty good spot if you’re not opposed to setting a few env variables.








It’s purely a backend, what’s under the hood is not really visible to matrix clients.
Edit: Though I wish this graphic communicated that more, just realized it doesn’t even say anything about [matrix].
