    I’m no fan of the 2077, but thinking of it solely as a shooter is doing it a bit of a disservice given that you usually* have different approaches to in-game situations.

    You can build around hacking, engineering, speech checks, melee combat, stealth cyberwarfare etc.

    I felt that the projectile mechanics were sort of neat but I will agree that I don’t think the game really has legs when merely thought of as a FPS. Perhaps it had some potential in the past, part of their PL govt funding agreement was to release a multiplayer mode as well. I’d imagine that’d focus a little more on gunplay, and slightly less on QuickTime interactions involving hacking and such, but who knows.

    *there are situations which require direct combat iirc


  • I use a keychron Q3 and Q0. They can be remapped / programmed through a web (chrome derivs as it requires WebHID) or desktop electron app called VIA, which at the time of writing is proprietary. I believe Vial (written in Qt) is being brought up, so that may be an option in the future.

    In terms of managing the firmware, the vendor offers a first party web interface (also leveraging WebHID). The QMK Toolbox GUI is only available on Mac and Windows but you can use the CLI on Linux to get into DFU mode and flash your firmware.

    Not really keen on Logitech as a company but I use Piper to program several of their G series mice on Linux. You can check the libratbag support list to see which hardware can work with it.

    I see. You can temporarily edit your grub before the OS loads. This should afford you the opportunity to boot into the system without EDID modifications, though im not sure if your modified EDID will still load under this scenario. If so, you may need to switch into a CLI session to undo your changes.













  • I think you’d be incorrect but I’m glad to see focus on other ISAs nonetheless.

    I’m not sure the power efficiency argument in favour of RISC really holds up today; Lunar lake has demonstrated that x86 can achieve stellar perf / watt at lower power envelopes. It doesn’t quite meet apple (testimony to their own proficiency though they benefit from vertical integration) but comfortably pulls ahead of Qualcomm in this regard.

    But being able to use your desktop software on any target, regardless of ISA or OS? Sign me the fuck up.
