Err that name sounds a bit unfortunate.

I have the kk3. Wins for not needing an app and also firmware upgrades via just a file upload to the controller as USB Mass storage.
The buttons are “classic” not micro switch. Some prefer the latter.
Man these guys should try putting more effort into making the game rather than harrassing their employees.
My main issue with it is that everyone is using it to push their own narrative about why the game failed. People doing the “It’s a woke game, so it went broke”, or “it’s a saturated market”, or whatever. These are just reactions, not data driven analyses.
He was fired
He owns the business. His ownership was liquidated by the other owner without paperwork, and most of the other owners dispute that the ownership was ever diluted. The decision over whether he should have been “fired” are really upto him and the other business owners.
It’s also unclear why the other employees, who may or may not have been coerced, were not siding with Kurvitz. I agree it’s a mess, but there’s a big gap between “feelings” and “actually grossly illegal stuff”.
There are other videos on the internet about this, but basically PMG have done a terrible job here. One person is accused of serious corporate misconduct, and the others have allegations of being hard to work with, and PMG effectively treats them as equal, not even realising that the reason maybe some people were hard to work with was because of forced labour from the guy also doing the corporate misconduct.
They’ve just not done a great job overall here.
You may not have considered the Intel Arc GPUs. Basically they were bad on Windows and are slowly improving, but unsure about their state on Linux. The cards were quite bad at some point, and well worse than an experience with NVIdia, despite the libre stack.
I would say the “best” depends on goals here. I generally encourage use of AMD over NVidia, but the difference is quite small. If you’re already going with CachyOS, then you’re well beyond the skill level to be able to navigate the tiny additional complexity of an NVidia card. Just buy the best bang for buck and your use case.
As for Mali, recent kernels and Mesa versions have made significant inroads. I do believe we’ll get pretty good support for Mali by the time the Qualcomm ARM Laptops become available for Linux.
I don’t know if Linux Gaming would exist if it wasn’t for OpenGL and Carmack using it for Quake.
Unfortunately we are in the Glide era of VR. OpenXR exists, but someone needs to create a killer app which uses it.
I remember the frame time issue happening but it fixed itself and I can’t remember the cause. Try changing the refresh rate of your monitor, it might kick something which fixes it.
Performance should definitely be mostly on par with Windows.
It’s honestly silly. I have a minor interest in Olympics coverage but it’s so often difficult to be able to watch a sport or see more context from a meme that I just stop caring. Like imagine if you saw that shooting meme and thought “yeah I’ll watch the whole thing” but you can’t. The wheeling and dealing makes the whole thing harder to get excited about.
This is the first I’ve heard of it. Fingers crossed he has a Linux video in the works.
In that case Steam flatpak isn’t really what you want. You probably want to use Bottles, which creates a flatpak-like sandbox. This is not a guarantee or anything, but does give you some protection (at least, better than running it on Windows I guess).
If you don’t use steam because it’s a shady source, I guess Bottles would be your go-to. I think parent is talking about if you bought a game off steam.
Writers give publishers legitimacy. Publishers will regularly pull the writers out to trot out some “copyright is important” line.
Modern day book burning. Done by the writers this time.
I wonder how they deal with flash storage degradation.
EDIT: Apparently the Switch uses something called XtraROM. See This for more info.
Toll roads aren’t bad, it’s all in the details. The problem is that the government is often “captured” and therefore has no incentive to have a fair contract, so they’ll add clauses like
Ideally, toll roads encourage people to take the train.
There were a bunch of game company closures in Australia in the 2000s and now there are a bunch of Australian indie devs, as an example. The cycle takes a long time though.
TIL on this one. Thanks dude.
It’s a pretty tepid way of thinking about the issue to be honest. In a strategic sense, basically any move Microsoft is forced to make for actual (rather than apparent) security makes it harder for them to do things in a way which creates lock-in. Yes, they will use it to push for DRM, as another commenter noted, but that’s another apparent security solution. In the long term, this is a positive, but it’s not an immediate and direct benefit, as the blog post notes.
