Fabric with some performance-enhancing mods is a great choice as well, yes! I’ve been wanting to test it on my server for a while now, just haven’t got around to it yet.
Paper changes some of the more quirky vanilla redstone behavior, although - again - it’s very configurable so some of that original behavior can be restored.
I’d mostly base it on which plugin/mod ecosystem you prefer/require.
World simulation (ticks) is single-threaded, but things like world generation are multithreaded. I’d recommend Paper as server software as it’s more performant out of the box (vs. vanilla) and configurable (ex. how many threads world generation is allowed to use).
If you host multiple worlds I recommend spinning up a Paper instance for each world separately and connect them with Velocity.
Ryzen 7000 should have better single-threaded performance than your i5-9500 but as it’s a VM ymmv depending on whether Sparked Host overprovisions their machines.
Couple of years, yeah.
They run their own registry at lscr.io. You can essentially prefix all your existing linuxserver image names with lscr.io/ to pull them from there instead.
With help from Valve developers and some features still missing, most notably hardware-accelerated video en-/decode.
Input latency for one, because the next frame is delayed where the interpolated frame is inserted.
And image quality. The generated frame is, as I said, interpolated. Whether that’s just using an algorithm or machine learning, it’s not even close to being accurate (at this point in time).
Not on the internal display. You can set the refresh rate, but it doesn’t adjust dynamically based on content (which is what VRR does).
Oh Bazzite is great, no doubt about it.
But it’s not endorsed/supported in any way by ASUS so ROG Ally (X) compatibility isn’t a given. ASUS could release a firmware update tomorrow that breaks compatibility (very unlikely of course).
No touchpads. OOTB experience questionable and Bazzite is a community project, compared to first party support from Valve for the Deck.
And the display isn’t definitely better. Yes it’s 120 Hz, higher resolution and VRR, but the Deck’s OLED has proper HDR support and 90 Hz is probably enough for this type of device (as is the resolution, although I’d take a higher res screen as well for 2D games). The main thing that the Deck’s screen is missing is VRR imo.
YouTube is by far the slowest website I visit, it’s so bloated.
Exactly. But it’s the cheapest solution for the studio/publisher and most gamers blindly accept it, with some even actively defending the practice.
Same here. I feel like having to enter it so many times isn’t just more annoying but also makes the users more susceptible to phishing attacks ad they’ll naturally pay less attention where they’re entering the 2FA code into when they do it so routinely.
Big advantage being that it’s plug-and-play via the kernel and Mesa packages, just like AMD.
Mine is 95% Linux, 4% Steam Deck (so 99% Linux I guess) and 1% Windows cause I tested if Baldur’s Gate 3 would work under Windows with an Intel Core Ultra iGPU after I couldn’t get it to work under Linux (works fine with other GPUs though).
I am SCP-426, your toaster.
With recent SteamOS release notes mentioning the ASUS ROG Ally, I think the writing’s on the wall that we’ll see a version of the Ally with SteamOS preinstalled soon.
Or what do you mean?
