In my case it’s a sign I might should try out PC gaming again. I’ve been console exclusively for like 15 years now because so few games used to work. But with Steamdeck’s popularity we might actually start seeing more than 10% of games getting native ports 🤞

If it’s running 5.0-5.2, you should be worried. And most all games released to date are from this range. Devs could upgrade to 5.3+, the one they finally optimized it on. it’s not all on Epic

Heh. Nice

The Verge was a breathe of fresh air when it first launched. The rest of tech news had enshitified pretty well at the time. But now they’ve been around long enough to be the establishment rather than the disruptor

Yup, came here to say something similar. The author completely lost me when I got to the part talking down about Mastodon

I’m fairly convinced this whole Doom game is just a way for them to prep the Id Tech engine for the needs of the next Skyrim game

I think the dedicated block to handle decompression is the biggest innovation the PS5 brought in, beyond M2 SSDs

Snaps are crap. Not using them is one of the main reasons I’m considering switching to Mint

I thought the story sounded unique and interesting. But now that I’ve realized it’s a turn-based RPG I’m way more hyped about it!

This looks fun. I’d love to try it, but I don’t see any console support 🙁

The frame rate on this trailer looked atrocious 😬

So we need git add . && git commit -a here really

You need the “Userland” programs. Basic things like ls, cp, cat, etc. Usually it’s GNU core tools, but there’s also BusyBox or BSD equivalents.

Mainly with the bootloader, but also a few device drivers. But this was like 6 years ago and UEFI was still new. So maybe it’s better now. Generally the older your hardware the more likely it is to be supported

The last time I tried installing on a MacBook I had all kinds of problems. Maybe it is better now, but I’d suggest starting with a traditional PC if you’re brand new to Linux

Bandcamp was nice while it lasted https://www.wired.com/story/epic-games-sale-bandcamp-music-platform-limbo/

I wonder if the codename implies you will be jumping and bouncing around a lot in the game

Polygon actually did link to some vids in their article. But they look to have been taken down

You linked to a Google doc, and I appreciate that. But there are no vids in that WCCF link

Oh did they change that too? I was just going off the “capped at 4%” part. Before you only had to exceed $200k to have to start paying
