Look at the list of supported platforms at the end of the trailer, and the order they are listed in! That's the way to do it!

Quoting: kaimanSo I'm curious: is this only a GNOME + Wayland issue or is this a general GNOME issue that will be addressed for Wayland only (and not for X11)?

It's a good question. The changeset is called "Do not throttle input in wayland event delivery" so I'm guessing this only affected Wayland.

Quoting: WorMzyI don't understand the whore PE-push, are the wine devs essentially saying that native Linux executable formats are subpar for executing code on Linux, or is there some super-optimzed PE-to-ELF translation layer at work here?

Compatibility with Windows essentially:

*** PE modules

- Most modules are built in PE format (Portable Executable, the
  Windows binary format) instead of ELF when the MinGW compiler is
  available. This helps various copy protection schemes that check
  that the on-disk and in-memory contents of system modules are
  identical.

- The actual PE binaries are copied into the Wine prefix instead of
  the fake DLL files. This makes the prefix look more like a real
  Windows installation, at the cost of some extra disk space.

- Modules that have been converted to PE can use standard wide-char C
  functions, as well as wide-char character constants like L"abc".
  This makes the code easier to read.

Quoting: tuubiDon't worry, it'll inevitably go out of fashion. Then it'll be "retro" before you know it.

I've already got my eye on a nice little house in Flatland!

Quoting: slaapliedjePS3 games are rather huge... I have one of the few bluray drives that will read them. I am pretty sure Red Dead Redemption was like 45gb? I would have to look again. But they can be up to 50gb in size, which would eat up the Steam Deck's storage real fast! Though I suppose getting a 1 or 2tb microsd will fix that.

Modern PC games aren't exactly small. RDR2 is 150 GB.

I'm not sure why they even bothered with the 64GB Deck version.

Frankly, this is a job for Valve. It was clear from the start that the issues surrounding anti-cheat and DRM were never only technical in nature.

Either use the carrot (Make that 30% cut of the profits into 10% for a developer who supports Proton!) or use the stick (Developer does not support Proton. Sorry, your games are not welcome on Steam!).

...or just go about it the industry standard way and make sure your CEO throws up at the same parties as their CEO.

Now, admittedly I only skimmed the eleven pages of comments. But, asteroids hit the earth, wiping out the dominant species, 65 million years later it leads to the decline of Google Stadia streaming service?

Did I get that right? Did I miss something? Was John Titor at any point involved?

Quoting: slaapliedjeThe amusing thing to me, is that Unity also pushed me away from them... and then they finally announced unity was dead, they turned around and forced snaps... so I still stay away.

Personally, I lost interest when they stopped with the nude photography.

No wait, that was the reason I lost interest with Playboy.

No, wait again, it really was Ubuntu [External Link]!

(In reality I have of course never used either.)

Quoting: drmothSorry to disappoint you, but the main campaign of NWN is about a pandemic - a disease outbreak :D

I'll admit I actually knew that going in, I was setting myself up for the joke :tongue:

I did find it funny that the cure for the disease in the game involves a bat. Well, a Cockatrice, so part bat.

Quoting: ShabbyXYou want feedback? Get rid of snap.

I'd say either get rid of Snap, or add Crackle and Pop!
