Quoting: KohlyKohlI was playing Warcraft III in 2002 with Wine and World of Warcraft in 2004. I think it has come a long way, though, it was already a great project even in the early 2000s.

WoW without DXVK still looks kind of funny , even these days :grin:
Hopefully with the next cycle they can improve their default rendering. Games like Mafia 3 are pitch black :)

Quoting: syylkDo you remember when we were barely able to run Wordpad on WINE?

What a journey it has been...

Quoting: BotonoskiI was very certain they weren't going to do this, so many companies just flippantly make e-waste without so much as a second thought. I am glad they are taking this step, but worried the motives behind doing such a thing are... Lackluster, likely PR motivated rather than an actual intention to reduce waste.

Probably one or a few very dedicated developers spending some of their 20% time [External Link] on this.

Quoting: TuxeeAn add-on for add-on for an add-on. Or actually an add-on for two other add-ons...

This is getting out of hand, kinda.

Quoting: M@GOidThis was one of my major grips with their chassis. Since motherboard deaths are the major contributor of trowing out a entire chassis, for those bespoke models, this will increase the reparability tremendously.

My other grip with them is the absence of frontal output. USB, audio, a real reset button. Those are important things that is inexcusable for not be present in expensive systems like those they sell.

From the press release: "What sets the Thelio desktop line apart from other desktops is its system-specific thermal engineering. The internals are engineered for optimal airflow, allowing the user’s components to perform at their best.

Colour me highly sceptical of the benefits of this carry-over from laptops. This is an extremely competitive area of case/cooler design, making it doubtful that their engineering can approach existing off-the-shelf solutions, that would have had the additional advantage of adhering to standards.
