Try it with different monitors you have. The current nVidia Linux drivers only has BGR output for 10bpp, which works on TVs and OLEDs but not most LCDs monitors. My monitors (InnoC…

I'm on Wayland and the cable is HDMI 2.1 ultra high speed, which means 8k. Xorg is already gone on Ubuntu 25.10. The GPU and monitor combination has full 10-bit HDR in Windows. But…

No luck for me with HDMI 2.1 - still seeing XRGB8888 on my monitors after HDR enabled. That's still pretty crappy. Monitors do not say whether they support BGR input signals or not…

Ok. I've been using DisplayPort 1.4a with my 4090 at the moment. Maybe I'll try HDMI 2.1 and see what happens. I'm actually surprised that YouTube HDR works on your side - perhaps …

I don't have a Dell U2725QE, but on InnoCN 27M2V and Cooler Master GP27U there's no ABGR2101010 support. These monitors would only work with ARGB2101010 or XRGB2101010 which nVidia…

Under the Planes section, look for planes that have non-zero "CRTC_ID". Those are the planes that actually get output to your monitor. Here's what I'm getting on an RTX 4090 / Inno…

They're also selling $3000 nVidia AI workstations that exclusively uses Linux. But what if you want to watch an HDR video on it? No. What if you want to use Google Meet on Chrome/W…

You can enable, yes. But (assuming you're on an LCD display and not an OLED), you're likely still on XRGB8888 - i.e. 8-bit per channel. Check `drm_info`. Also, go to YouTube and pl…

HDR still doesn't really work on Linux w/ nVidia GPUs. 1. 10bpp color depth is not supported on RGB monitors, which are the majority of LCD displays on the market. Concretely, ARGB…

Enslavement only matters if your level of productivity is still on roughly the same order of magnitude (as in, up to minus a few) of your masters. e.g. you are a cow, a jug of your…

If there's a general panic in the market and absolutely everyone demands cold, hard USD - no percentage will save them. Let's say you're the person who's speaking for Wells Fargo a…

The person who said SVB's situation is "idiosyncratic" is an employee of Wells Fargo - of course he would say that. Generally, banks run on confidence on the system - if any of the…

ex-AAPL senior software engineer here. You generally only get good at interview problems when you're entering the door. After that, interview questions generally have nothing to do…

Imagine someone outside of the tech community thinking along this line... "Making high performance CPUs that are also highly power efficient should make a ton of money. Why isn't e…

It's been a "premium" feature on gaming PC motherboards - i.e. you need to pay extra for it and it's pretty rare. Laptops have it because Intel's SOCs (e.g. Tiger Lake) have it bui…

Agreed. Humans are inherently fragile beings with almost no redundant parts. If I fry your brain with long hours and politically hostile work environment and drive you to depressio…

I was able to withdraw my money within the 90 day grace period, even after seeing the pop up. Have you checked if you're still within the 90 days from their email notice, and is yo…

You should have got an "Account review notice" and an "Important Service Update" email from them that says you have 90 days to transfer your funds out. After that your account woul…

You should use Anaconda instead of pip to install data science related tools in Python. ``` $ conda create -n {new_environment_name} python $ conda activate {new environment name} …

The title is misleading. HiSilicon is responsible for the SoC, but the backdoor is part of the Linux-based device firmware made by another company called Hangzhou Xiongmai Technolo…

The most important skill for a senior engineer (or, really, any job in a large organization) is... Political skills. What projects / technologies / customers / designs are consider…

The original extradition law weakened the strength of the Common Law system of Hong Kong - which, for many Hong Kongers, had concerns on both their ability to continue to do busine…

I'd counter there're three reasons for the strong response from the general public of HK. 1. The suppression tactics used by the HK police affects both protesters and non-protester…
