Quoting: tuubi

Quoting: EikeI really like modesty, but making a 1.0 after what feels after a decade of usefulness seems to be too much for me. (I can't remember what other famous example there was. Was it Gimp? One not so famous would be KDiff3, which I'm using for a decade at least 17 years :O and which never got a 1.0 by its original maintainer.)

Unlike age, a version is just a number. ;)

Quoting: scaineI have to say, Dubigrasu, you've really knocked this out of the park:

You're the fourth top contributor overall and I see that GOL has moved up to rank "558 of 252994". Insane. Especially when you view the top contributors and many have literally only contributed to GOL!!

Incredible and nothing to feel guilty about if you need to reign it in a little. I went for two or three weeks without any GPU jobs for the same reason, but without GPU, you're only really scoring about 10K a night, whereas you can easily top 200K a night if you use your GPU (I'm on a GTX 1080). But wow, does the PC get hot!

Wow! Impressive! My setup is running at about 90k per day, (CPU + 2 GPU, full load)... May we deduce that AMD is better than Nvidia for this kind of stuff too (like bitcoin mining)?

Mining with GPUs had two peak periods (AFAIK), one about ten years ago, and another more recent craze (the one that caused a GPU shortage/price increase). No idea what people use these days for mining, but during the first peak everybody used AMD. There was practically no Nvidia rig whatsoever. And as a side note, AMD+Linux was the preferred method, especially for bigger rigs/farms. Is likely that GPU mining introduced many people to Linux back then.

As for folding, today, if you look at the stats you'll see Nvidia as the preferred hardware, whatever the reason might be.

Folding is something different, I guess. People are building machines for mining, but I guess they are mostly using existing rigs for folding. And most fast GPUs sold are from Nivida...

How comes you can contribute that big? You're admin somewhere? :)

Quoting: GuestWhat i wonder is how it will influence Feral. Will they continue to do Mac ports ? And if they don't do Mac ports, is it worth it for them to do Linux ports ?

Did they port any VR game yet?

Bridge Constructor Portal. Nice game to play for an hour and leave it when there's no time, easy to come back to. Not great, but good. Lacks some polish.

Quoting: TermyI got a little heartattack when reading "Valve drops support for SteamVR.."....but what a relief that "macOS" followed xD

Sucks for Mac-Users, but is kind of understandable given Apples policy to screw devs over all the time...

Wanted to write the very same. :-D

Quoting: EikeIs having huge black borders unusually well support? :)
(Though I wouldn't know how they could do it better, given their checkerboard setup.)

See Ehvis' comment earlier in the thread - there's no corruption, menus and backgrounds fill out correctly.

I honestly wonder if that's that hard to do. I understand many indies won't have such a monitor to test, but just making everything black that I don't fill with content shouldn't be a hard task...

Quoting: Avehicle7887Went ahead and bought the game today. It handles ultrawide resolutions really well and this is really one of the few as many 2D games don't scale well.

Linux port (GOG release) running fine:

Quoting: WorMzyI guess you don't miss what you don't know about, but I don't see the point of this. Is it for helping people with colour-blindness?

When googling for images, it seems the one major use case is seeing enemies earlier in CS:GO. :D
