I have a samsung smartwatch, and I'd like to make watchfaces for it. The problem is that I tried once and I couldn't find any documentation, not version or basically anything. Somehow, I forgot how, but I managed to print text on a background picture. It was very frankenstein-like.

I'd like to start over with proper everything, so I came here asking on the offchance that any of you can help me with at least documentations. I remember it being in java, however if I can use other languages I would. My mate got the idea to somehow render a webview, because that atleast it's codeable, problem is I have no Idea how to render anything.

Can someone give me links to usable up-to-date docs? Or pre-written webview? I wasn't able to find anything.

My laptop isn't under my supervision most of the time. And I'd hate it if someone were to steal my SSD, or whole laptop even, when I'm not around. Is there a way to encrypt everything, but still keep the device in sleep, and unclock it without much delay. It's a very slow laptop. So decryption on login isn't viable, takes too long. While booting up also takes forever, so it needs to be in a "safe" state when simply logged out. Maybe a way that's decrypt-on-demand?

I'm on Arch with KDE.

Let's be honest: I only use Java for Minecraft. So I only debugged with it. But all version, server or client, all launchers. All of them use double (or more) RAM. In the game the correctly allocated amount is used, but on my system double or more is allocated. Thus my other apps don't get enough memory, causing crashes, while the game is suffering as well.

I'm not wise enough to know what logs or versions or whatever I should post here as a cry for help, but I'll update this with anything that'll help, just tell me. I have no idea how to approach the problem. One idea I have is to run a non-Minecraft java application, but who has( or knows about) one of those?

@[email protected]'s request:

launch arguments [-Xms512m, -Xmx1096m, -Duser.language=en] (it's this little, so that the difference shows clearly. I have a modpack that I give 8gb to and uses way more as well. iirc around 12)

game version 1.18.2

total system memory 32gb

memory used by the game I'm using KDE's default system monitor, but here's Btop as well:

this test was on max render distance, with 1gb of ram, it crashed ofc, but it crashed at almost 4gbs, what the hell! That's 4 times as much

I'm on arch (btw) (sry)

The game starts but I have extreme performance issues. I'm not talking about low fps or input delay, I have a decent gaming pc, and it's relatively new. I'm talking about stutters, heavy ones. I manged to snap two screenshots of this happening on 60fps cap and uncapped:

Almost all video settings are unrelated. If I lower them the freezes also lower in number, but I don't think it's a hardware limit.. if this can't run it on high-med (as I had it) nothing can. I ran some benchmarks and stress test, both on Windows and Linux, both Vulkan and Dx11, It didn't stutter.

Some other things to mention is how I run it. From Steam, normally. I have no forced proton selected, I did no other configs. However I might have something fucked as:

Anyways, thankfully mangohud got me and tells me that I'm using proton-experimental 9.0. (on the prev. screenshots, I had forced proton enabled, stutters the same)

I tried using steam tinker, and it says: "using proton-unknown-958".

I have no idea what information more to give, I just typed out things that might be related to the issue. If something's unclear or if I should supply more information, just tell me. Thanks in advance for any help or tips.

SOLVED

thanks for the tips, this one was solved by u/Leopard1907 over on Reddit.

it was my driver, and these two commands:

• sudo pacman -S --needed lib32-mesa vulkan-radeon lib32-vulkan-radeon vulkan-icd-loader lib32-vulkan-icd-loader
• sudo pacman -R amdvlk lib32-amdvlk

I'm on Samsung Galaxy A32 4G.

The post has 6 up- and 4 downvotes. On the homepage I only see the upvotes, not the sum of both. I can only see the downvotes when I open the post.

edit: extra info:

My friend says that there is, but I told him to show me the it's chart, and he said that it's not about that (?).

So here I go asking: Is there any other type of chart (g/mm) outside of the two?

I just started noticing it like half an hour ago. I'm fairly new to this OS, so I have no idea where to look for any logs or anything.

I took a screenshot with Spectacle, and instead of it putting it into the clipboard it cleared it. Then when chatting on Discord (thru Vencord) and pressing ctrl-A & ctrl+X to write another message first, ctrl+V didn't paste as my clipboard was empty. the screenshot happened multiple times, text only once. I can't replicate it. I'm on Arch KDE, checked the clipboard setting, I don't have a hotkey that I may be fat-fingering. I tried rebooting.

I tried abusing the clipboard while writing this, and just to mock me everything worked. So this might be a spam post without me even knowing, in that case I'm sorry; But please tell me how I can look at the logs, maybe I can catch it red handed still.

edit: no problem since, I haven't done anything. Sorry for wasting your time.

I'm studying programming, and I don't agree woth my teacher. She basically said that if we use break (and continue too maybe) our test is an instant fail. She's reasoning is that it makes the code harder to read, and breaks the flow of it or something. (I didn't get her yapping tbh)

I can't understand why break would do anything of the sorts. I asked around and noone agreed with the teacher. So I came here. Is there a benefit to not using breaks or continues? And if you think she's wrong, please explain why, briefly even. We do enough down talking on almost all teachers she doesn't need more online.

Hello all, I've only used lemmy on mobile so far there has been a million and one posts about apps for lemmy for mobile. My plan was to lurk and read something about pc lemmy, and set it up, but I haven't found any. What can I use on desktop to browse lemmy?

I know that I can just type my instance and have lemmy, but I wont be able to post in private, defederated, etc. communities. Even so if my instance is down, I'd be just locked out.

So basically my wish is to port whatever I have on mobile to pc. A multi-instance & multi-account lemmy client, bonus points if it has a bunch of features, like blocking, or if it's pretty, but that goes without saying. Even a link to a same, but older, question will help, Thanks in advance.

I'd like to play dnd way more than I do now, as my current party is bearly availabe (I'm talking like 2 sessions a year).

I know the obv that I should just look for ppl, let me tell you, it's well known between my friends that I play (at least would like to) dnd, none of them are interested.

Anyways, is there a site or some event where dnd players go and meet or post a "looking for players at xyz city" flyers. Maybe online parties, not the best ik, but I take what I can get..

Thanks for any help, or tips on how to spot a dnd player in the wild!

Hello, me again. I'd like help in workstations. I see all of you jump to pcpartpicker whenever someone wants techsupport, but I'm just looking for general ideas or spitballing. Like whether Amd or Nvidia or Intel.

The usecase will be to try out videoediting and maybe 2d animating. There will also be unavoidable gaming on this device. I'd describe it as a hybrid gaming and workstation.

My logic instantly went to RAM and VRAM. as that should be the focus, but I don't know whether the speed or the quantity is more important. I also don't know if Amd or Nvidia is better at videoencoding.

I'd like tips like this please. NVMe for speed, hdd for capacity, or sata ssd for a mix? recommended MT/s for ram with channels? What gpu cores does premiere use? do I even need to worry about 2d animating? does the x3d modells of amd cpus any good for this usecase? do core # metter or only the GHz?

closing point; I know how to pc, but idk how to workstation pc as I only messed with highend/mid gaming pcs. Thanks for any info in advance!
