Yeah, it sucks for the people who lose jobs. OTOH after the ABK takeover, Microsoft was suddenly by far the biggest games publisher and no regulatory body had any problems with it. Now Microsoft’s own incompetence is taking care of that.

Deepin packages have been thrown out for a second time from openSUSE a few months ago. That stuff is all bling, no foundation.

GPL isn’t non-commercial. Non-commercial licenses are explicitly against the free software and open sources definitions by both FSF and OSI.

Well, graphics got better but games didn’t evolve much.

Did the author run the benchmarks few times to rule out shader compilation.

Why should the author rule it out? Honest question. If shader compilation leads so worse real world experience for gamers on Windows than SteamOS, it is a valid point to include.

I was using Flathub’s Steam years ago already to avoid installing any 32bit system packages. Works fine. This change is no problem at all.

Why is Flatpak the latest shit?

Works on Steam Deck out of the box.

What’s wrong with the classic *.deb viz. *.rpm distribution?

Doesn’t work on Steam Deck.

Telegram isn’t banned in Ukraine. Can’t be that bad.

Pavel Durov had to flee Russia after resisting Putin’s influence on VK. That’s public information known to everyone who cares to spend a minute reading his Wikipedia article.

the EU needs a smartphone brand like…yesterday

Yes, they incentivize another 0.001%. How is google going to survive this?

Tech geeks acting as multiplication factors are the people who brought Apple from obscurity to mainstream.

Maybe but those 1% of buyers are multiplicators incentivizing others to buy the same phone.

Full AOSP compatibility for Pixel devices is a huge reason to buy a Pixel instead of a 3rd party OEM. They’re shooting themselves in the foot.

This is the reason why I’m not a fan of permissive licenses.

If Google is the sole copyright holder, a copyleft license would change nothing because they still have the option to change the license going forward.

RADV was an external effort.

Not only external but a fork of Intel’s Vulkan driver. That’s why Intel’s copyright is mentioned in many file headers.

Which rights do you have?

Plenty. GOG sp. z o.o. is an EU company after all.

Galaxy is free and not required.

It’s a product for paying customers of GOG games. You have rights you don’t have with some open source hobby project.

So does Galaxy?

Heroic is a community “we hope it’s useful but don’t complain when it doesn’t” product.

With Galaxy you are a paying customer who has rights.

I’m sure they did some kind of cost/benefit analysis, but it’s still fucking dumb imo.

The host of what was yesterday the most viewed teardown on YouTube speculated that the string joycon magnets may interfere with hall effect sticks.

Isn’t X effectively dead anyway, and most people moving to Wayland?

Yeah, XWayland will be around for quite some time but X11 / Xorg Server as stand-alone display server is pretty much dead.
