Its a cool game but i lost interest after i could not beat Fungus on normal difficulty after trying at least 7 times. It was just to difficult for me and was blocking progression to all the other pathogens.

Vulkan-based translation layer for Direct3D 7 on Linux, D7VK has a 1.0 release out now

hell yea! Today I installed V-Rally 2 Expert Edition (directx 7 game) from disc. It installed fine after unchecking the extra install options. The disc check works, the joystick works, and it even renders fine at 1080p with standard Proton 9. Getting D7VK working with it was a breeze.

Monster Hunter Wilds is set for some big performance upgrades

better late than never I suppose… the biggest culprit here must be the 2 DRM's they are running AT THE SAME TIME (Denuvo and Capcom Protector), and what's worse is that the game apparently checks every single texture going in and out of memory. Such a waste of processing cycles for nothing useful.

Shame on you Capcom for treating your paying customers so badly.

NVIDIA Beta driver 590.44.01 released for Linux
2 Dec 2025 at 2:44 pm UTC

This driver won't support 10 series and earlier any more, correct? Then why are they still listed in the 'supported products' section on the Nvidia website?

Raspberry Pi prices are rising due to RAM costs, plus a new 1GB Raspberry Pi 5 now available

I fast-tracked my planned upgrade to AM5 (previously 13600K) because of the RAM prices, I got a nice Crucial 6000-36 32GB kit for 177€, but 2 months earlier it was listed at 90. And now it's listed as 269€ on Amazon, WHAT THE F.
Anyways, I'm very happy I bought the RAM when I did. In half a year I expect 32GB of DDR5 will be a thousand euros/dollars or more.
