As someone who spent a lotta hours messing around in Scratch as a kid, this is neat.

Maybe I will get back into the swing of code stuff one of these days.

Quoting: STiATI switched to NVK and mesa meanwhile. Some games (especially DX12) don't run due to missing NVK features, some DX11 have poor performance and become a slide show (while others are just fine, so I guess missing features or just bottlenecks too), and you can feel that the graphic card heats up more, which isn't fun if you passively cool your card with just heatpipes.

I made an attempt to switch to NVK, but ran into a couple issues. What they have right now is really great, and I would love to see what comes of it in the future, but I had to swap back over to the proprietary drivers because some games refused to run.
Maybe in a year or two, even the end of the year, it may improve. I really hope so. As much is this is the last time I ever choose an NVIDIA card, I intend to keep this card for as long as I can.

So glad to hear it's finally made it to the stable branch, just waiting for RPMFusion to come out with it, then no more of that flickering that's been bothering me the past month or so.

Quoting: pleasereadthemanualThere's no reason you can't use GNOME's calculator on KDE.

I knew you could put gnome's default stuff on KDE (I do that every time for its disk utility), but the calculator never occurred to me for some reason, even though I just go over to my phone for calculations. Maybe I should just brush up on coding, if I didn't fall off, I'd probably have made KCalc that understands context myself lmao

Really excited for the cosmic desktop, I love what they did with GNOME but it's gotten really dated. If it's good enough, it might be my next desktop.

Just got 6.1 on my Fedora machine, took me by surprise. I was thinking I was going to wait a while.

Really cool to see this, I'm glad we're finally moving to make using an NVIDIA card on Linux non-miserable.

Quoting: basedNot an issue as long as mommy's paying the bills

I mean, I guess. Still though, there's things you can buy and sell other than banana PNGs on the steam marketplace, a TF2 hat or a CS2 skin or something. At least with those, you're going to see what you bought in-game.

I think I heard about this at some point or another, but that's a shame. There's a lot of simulation games over the years where one franchise took over the theme. If you want to build rollercoasters, Rollercoaster Tycoon. Build a city? SimCity. Zoo? Zoo Tycoon. And then, when the new games became scarce or awful, a smaller company takes a shot at it, and does it way better. Such as Planet Coaster, Cities Skylines and Planet Zoo.

I don't think The Sims has gotten to the point where the new games are so awful quite yet, in my opinion, the Sims 4 is a fun game, now, it's no Sims 2, but I still enjoy it from time to time. It at least still supports mods from what I understand, which is important for screwing around. However, it'd be cool to see a Sims-type game that wasn't constrained by the grip of Electronic Arts and their nonsense.

I spent quite a bit of time in the computer lab playing this game during the allotted free time... and a little bit outside the free time, too. What's the teacher going to do, remotely look at what I'm doing and blank out my screen through their computer? Oh, that's exactly what happened. Well, I'll be.
