Oh, ok. That makes some sence. I had a similar issue with Fedora 41 as they didn’t update to a newer version of FFMPEG that fixed some conflicts/issues. I had to download a different video player that shipped with it’s own ffmpeg packaged. Can’t remember the name, but try seeing what’s in the software store. You might be affected by a similar problem.

That is even stranger. My RX6600 has zero issues with 4k 10bit content. Do you watch via browser or ripped dvds?

You could try one of the “gaming” focused distros like Cachy or Bazzite. They do their own tweaks to squeeze more performance out of you hardware. Sadly, many game won’t reach the performance level of Windows, but you can get pretty close, like 85-90% close (depends highly on the game in question, no guarantees).

I second OnlyOffice. I am not a power user of Word, but neither a novice. Things haven’t broken yet and I’ve been editing .docx files for over a year now.

The best way would be to use Qbittorrents web interface. You can drag and drop files and have them start downloading imediately. If you need to do it over the terminal, qbit has an option to watch certain folders for new torrent files. You could then use Samba to transfer files over your local network.

Edit: I skipped over files for printing. Can’t help with that, but my guess would be Samba as well.

I always shed a tear when he sings “jdgakvakdbakvsnjsvansh”. True words have never been spoken.

ARSENAL Extended Power. An old strategy game from the early 2000s. Still fire it up once a year to mess around.

Works only if they load the content beforehand. Plus you have to enable scrolling by searching for somehing like “overflow”. Someone fill me in on that one.

Wdym another hobby???

Grrman C might be fake, but German Excel isn’t.

The Little Mermaid was H. C. Andersen, not the brothers Grimm

I installed CachyOS on a spare drive and the jitter is almost gone. Just a few hickups here and there, but about 10x better out of the box. Now I am just confused. Fedora used to work perfectly fine!

An update on this whole issue. Since nothing worked I got really pissed and installed CachyOS on a spare drive. Lo’ and behold, the jitter is almost non-existent. Now I am even more perplexed.

Tried rhat today with various Proton versions. Only Sniper lets me play a game, other complain about not being VAC compatible. But sadly neither of them help with jitter. I tried even Proton-GE, but also not VAC compatible…

I wanted to compile mimalloc. Not sure which dependencies were missing, but I couldn’t install them. So I had to copy them over from another distro, but after that the linker couldn’t find them. Seems like too much effort for some basic functionallity as I did the same in Fedora in less than one minute.

I was on Bazzite prior to Fedora. I switched to Fedora because I couldn’t get Bazzite to compile some code because of missing dependecies, which I couldn’t install for some unknown reason. Noone on they Discord knew why, so I had to give it up.

If nothing else works, I’ll have to give it a try

• I don’t use any wireless connecticity for my PC, just a plain old ethernet cable.
• The ping test was fine. 176 packets received, 0% lost, only 3-4 outliers with 150ms, average 15ms.
• ethtool was fine 1000mbps and full. Bufferbloat was fine too, 20ms.
• I’ll try cl_interp_ratio tomorrow and report back.
• Noone is wwtching anything in 4k, maybe some YT on phone (I have cable).
• One site that gave me some bad results was packetlosstest. Someone on reddit suggested using it to test some CS preset. No lost packets, but about 8-10% are late (more than 40ms).

What is this book called?

Mayonnaise and potatoes are called potato salad? Is that some US thing? Where I am from, a potato salad is sliced cooked potatoes, onions, salt, sunflower oil and some vinegar. Much closer to a salad that than mayonnaise abomination.
