X11 doesn’t support a number of modern features well (e.g. fractional scaling) and has a fundamentally insecure operational model that makes it hard to prevent keylogging/screengrabbing, and the developers found it so hard to evolve & work with over time that they decided to start over with a more modular and conservative approach.
While it was a painful transition, I believe it’s worth it. But I don’t think that the accessibility story has developed enough to make the deprecation of X11 a good idea…


skong release when??


Is there a RISCV chip available with comparable performance & efficiency to current ARM chips? Seems like Valve would kill any chance their headset has if they unnecessarily reduced time between charging cycles.


I haven’t had any issues with my 8BitDo controller on Proton 10.x.


Eh, I don’t mind if they make a couple more. I can take or leave the story, but the environments are well-produced and happen to result in interesting papers on rendering them. It’s cool to have some much work and effort put into a natural alien environment. I can’t really remember another movie in the last decades that goes this far.
Thinking about it, I’d really prefer if they made fictional documentaries instead…


The first doesn’t really (and the thread they “re-opened” to connect the sequel is pretty bad), but the second one does leave a couple things open.
In general, the second one does improve a bit on the criticisms of the first movie. Not enough to make it great or special IMO, but at least it’s a bit better.


It can be, spinning iron has pretty bad throughput.


First, it’s not true that there’s no protection - various anti-cheat solutions do support Linux.
Second, “strong” solutions still let through cheaters, because client-side anti cheat is an inherently unwinnable cat-and-mouse game. It’s better for everyone to block kernel-level AC and instead force better backend solutions.


Not sure I understand - games with kernel-level anti cheat also still have cheaters.


Currently kernel-level anti cheat isn’t available for Linux, so games that are released with multiplayer support don’t require it (e.g. games that enable Linux support in EAC).
If kernel-level anti cheat is supported by Valve, many of those games will start requiring it. So if you don’t want kernel stuff, there’s a real chance this development will reduce the number of available games in the future.
Fixed save points in general.
To be fair, non-fixed savepoints introduce a bunch of additional work, especially on the gameplay design and testing sides, and for some games that work is better invested into other aspects of the game.
But if savepoints are fixed, they have to be frequent enough to not become an issue.


That also goes for the first. Doesn’t Jesse Eisenberg turn into water in one scene?


No? The article literally explains that it’s for something else?


More flash memory also helps when you only use a little space - you can do many, many more write cycles before degradation sets in.


It does in-universe, but out-of-universe it came later & is less recognizable than SCP.


It only limits you if you expect things to work exactly the same as with any other distro. If you spend some time reading up on how it expects you to solve different tasks, it doesn’t limit you for 99+% of scenarios.


The shitty news here is if you want a machine you’re doing software dev on you’re going to need to figure out the nvidia driver shit, which is a pain in the ass but if you’re a software developer you should be able to do it.
The dev-focused atomic Fedora variants solve all Nvidia issues for you, there’s no reason why you should trouble yourself with it.


Interesting, I didn’t know that! Though honestly the perfect description.
It would most likely still mean less engagement overall. YouTube recommendations are strongly based on interactions and momentum. If part of your core fanbase watches & interacts on other platforms, you’re recommended to fewer people outside your fanbase, so over time your viewership shrinks.
