What about the certificate installation on windows?

That’s simply bad software practice, which was fixed once pointed out. Fact is that if they had done this on purpose, they wouldn’t have changed it and instead, would’ve came up with an excuse to keep it the same way.

I never claimed it’s malware

I don’t keep track of who says what on this app. Many people in this thread have the idea that RustDesk is some sort of Chinese spyware that is secretly transmitting their files to the CCP. If that’s not your opinion, then I guess we are not in disagreement.

There’s no way for the user to know that clicking this button will edit their GDM config and disable Wayland

Yes, that’s the wrong way to do it, which is why they changed it. I’m not saying this is perfect software developed by experts, but the idea that RustDesk should be avoided at all cost is insane, specially when they have fixed every issue that was raised.

The only thing they are missing is a security audit done by a third party, which costs money and I doubt they care enough to pay for that just to stop all the finger pointing.

Bad coding practices is not malware, that just means the devs are not experts. Also, these were fixed when pointed out by the users, which is the whole point of being open source. The only reasonable issue is the direct modification of the GDM config, which required the user to click a button.

Sounds like you made up your mind on RustDesk being malware, even though there is no proof. All of your replies are “could/can” without even a hint of factual information on RustDesk being some sort of Chinese backdoor, so I guess we can stop this discussion.

Steam client needs the XWayland translation layer to work on any modern DE, plus 32-bit libraries (which are not installed by default).

EGLStreams is not superior to GBM.

But I want to know what is AMD working on, specially if it has to do with the RT / HDR / color management areas.

HDR/Color Management is not really AMD’s job. That’s between the Wayland and Mesa guys (I guess you could say AMD belongs in the “Mesa guys” umbrella).

Also, I’m pretty sure AMD already supports ray tracing through Mesa, and is enabled by default since version 23.2 on the radv driver:

radv: Enable ray tracing pipelines by default

You can literally monitor where the data is being transmitted. There is no need to trust anyone. If it was sending data to anything that isn’t your relay server, you’d be able to easily prove it.

I guess the fact that the last release was in April. Some people refuse to compile their apps even though it’s better.

You can self-host your own relay, what is there to worry about?

They don’t support new technologies (Wayland), why would they drop support for old ones?

Where does CUDA come into play for screen tearing?

It is better, just not on NVIDIA GPUs.

yes

Cool

Sure. Just to check, are saying Vaxry is a fascist?

Maybe, but that doesn’t make the owner a nazi, does it? If black people like to hang out at a bar owned by a white/hispanic/asian person, does the owner magically become black?

Looks like Vaxry simply refuses to ban people based on what they say/believe. How does that make him a fascist? Throwing labels like that around doesn’t help anyone, because when an actual fascist shows up and you label him as such, nobody will care.

For this to work with a desktop PC, you would need to connect your display cable to your iGPU instead of your dGPU. The driver should take care of the rest. This might yield lower performance when using dGPU for processing (probably unnoticeable, depending on circumstances).

That’s like saying clock rate and core count are fake terms. Sure, by themselves they might not mean much, but they’re part of a system that directly benefits from them being high.

The issue with teraflops metric is that it is inversely proportional (almost linearly) to the bit-length of the data, meaning that teraflops@8-bit is about 2x(teraflops@16-bit). So giving teraflops without specifying the bit-length it comes from is almost useless. Although you could make the argument that 8-bit is too low for modern games and 64-bit is too high of a performance trade off for accuracy gain, so you can assume the teraflops from a gaming company are based on 16-bit/32-bit performance.

Because it will always use X11 unless you tell it not to.

A lot of Wayland compositors have a GLES 2.0 renderer which should be supported by ancient GPUs. If you try Vulkan based compositors you might be out of luck.
