Got it, I just haven’t looked at any of them closely enough to give an informed opinion on this. Both Gnome and KDE (and PopOS?) have their own software store apps that let you browse flathub apps with different features, but I haven’t noticed if they do what you’re looking for. What you’re asking for seems reasonable and useful though. I hope you find something that works.

Same here.

Cool!

For example, if you go to the games category in Bazaar, it’ll say that there is 701 apps but it only shows 96. But now, if you go to the Flathub website, it’ll also say that there is 701 apps but there are 24 pages with 30 apps each.

Oh, wow, I didn’t realize that it did this, but I’ve barely used it yet. Yeah, that’s not good.

Edit: it seems that the most efficient approach would be to fix the Bazaar app or any other apps that show the Flathub catalog instead of writing something completely new.

Some form of an app that will allow me to get the most out of Flathub. I know that I wont use every app that exists on Flathub but I would like to have some app that will allow me to at least see every app that’s available. I don’t care if it’s something as simple as just a list of every app in the order they were added, preferably sorted/sortable by oldest first and multiple pages to make it easier to find where I left off, or if it’s something more intricate, like a full app store experience with an app recommendation system that filters out apps I’ve already interacted with.

Have you looked at Bazaar? I don’t think it does everything you listed, but maybe some of it?

I don’t have any experience with any of this, but have you looked at Cockpit? It can manage VMs not only locally but also remotely, I believe.

@nyan had a similar request elsewhere in this thread and got a few suggestions. It seems that the KDE screen capture utility can do this.

True! I didn’t even think about that. Great movie.

I’ve heard that too! I also remember cartoons where a character would hit the ground with a pick axe and oil would come gushing out.

Later, I calculated that you’d experience 15g at the tip of a typical one.

Sounds like a fun ride to me! /s

I’m with you in thinking that this is not impossible. I think geology is something that can do funny things in some places.

By the way, in some places oil seems to be pretty close to the surface. If you visit the La Brea tar pits in Los Angeles sometime, there’s essentially an open lake of oil (tar) that you can visit, and as you walk the grounds around it you’ll see some spots where the tar is seeping out from the ground and you have to watch out not to step on it.

There’s even a museum dedicated to this, including a “replica” of the boat!

It sounds like they were saying the opposite, that they would quit their (illegal) income if they had a job.

Absolutely!

I’m anxious for those features too. I still have to get started in VR, but I’ve been following the scene relatively closely for the last few years after trying it out.

Thanks for the link, that’s too bad to hear. I hear you that you don’t need this one if you already have other headsets. I’m in the opposite position. I have yet to get my first. I had been considering the Meta Quest 3, but Meta. The Valve Frame will very likely be my first. For someone like me, it’s nearly perfect.

Thanks for your answers. I figure that Valve is highly motivated to get the software sorted out, but we will have to see how quickly they can overcome these issues with hand tracking and WebXR.

About the CPU/GPU, I guess they decided to be practical with all this hardware to keep it relatively affordable. As far as a new VR game, you never know. Didn’t I hear that Alyx was a surprise release with the Index headset?

I’m crossing my fingers too!

Decades of working IT in various capacities including a lot of support roles at various levels have led me to usually suspect that anyone coming to to me saying that they can’t get something to work is doing something wrong, regardless if it’s IT or something else completely unrelated.

This is often combined with me trying to suggest possible solutions whenever someone complains or vents. This one drives my wife crazy sometimes and she’s had to teach me that sometimes she just wants emotional support and solidarity rather than possible ways to fix whatever she is venting about.

Good to hear, thanks for your first-hand impression of the current state of VR on Linux!

Very cool, thanks for your comprehensive predictions of effects of these new devices! I hope that a lot of that will come true.

I hope a lot of those things will come true, but the one I am hoping will happen sooner than later is for apps like Affinity (and Vegas editor!) to improve/fix their support via WINE or Proton. Regarding Affinity specifically, I understand that they have made the entire suite free to use now, which I’m afraid may indicate that canva will slow down or stop its development.
