My use case is an expo, we have a game people can play on display and I'm doing things on my main screen, ideally I can continue doing work while people try the game but at the bare minimum I would like the keyboard to he restricted to that app.

Lots of appliances doesn't need to be smart, I agree, there are plenty borderline where I think there is some benifit, bulbs for example, I think things should be a lot more local, it's a shame people use cloud solutions instead of home assistant or how much telemetry these smart appliances are allowed to get.
I disagree. I think that's far too extreme, there shouldn't be blanket bans because big tech ruins it for everyone, it harms stuff like minor indie creators or small buisnesses, that being said it needs to be HEAVILY regulated, like fridges should never have ads nor any smart appliance
I tried nvidia-offload, as I set up PRIME awhile ago, it didnt help, here is the logs, if its useful:

Idk if OBS would actually respect the GPU being handed to it, or if it'll do something weird with screen capture, its weird per-gpu settings is not a option with OBS, if this is a OBS bug, i can file a bug report. Hopefully it can be resolved here.
I have the hyprland portals installed, and the kde ones, due to some issue I had to explicitly install them so idk if that will mess with the way applications handle it, assuming not, and yes I have two gpus, one dgpu, and one igpu, the dgpu is directly connected to my hdmi, does OBS stuggle with 2 gpus? still, that sounds like it would be a issue with capturing the monitor managed by my igpu. Not a reason to stop a second pipewire capture.
What logs do you need? I provided some from running OBS but i assume it isnt enough, what logs should I collect, or is there a flag i need to run with OBS

Mine is lowest when im out, do you have an opinion on which of the 3 tools to use
I tried the loopback devices, didnt work, at most i made a script that worked, but i want it to work for audacity:
I am not using any app like qpwgraph to make connections, all i know is that this script works:
as for everything else:
I managed to fix it for pw-record, I dont know how to get it working for audacity:

I hope they add supports for more foldables!
I'm curious about the sizes of nfts, crypto and blockchain compared to the ai bubble
Omori, not much to add, it was the first game to give me goosebumps, or only game so far, and truly feel sad
I dont think i ever set AV1 encoding inside OBS, looking at my settings, it just shows h.264:

Unfortunately as the post said, atleast two of those things are actually useful skills

Weird it's called clicker when you can do key presses too, but I'll check it out. It looks like it fulfills my use case
If it works on wayland then yes
What's the difference between this and ydotool
Unfortunately it ain't a gui
Would signal also work?
