Every. Damn. Time.
There’s a lot of import uncertainty with the new French language bill having been/being passed that has a lot of companies and the US hesitant to test those waters.

That’s my current understanding of it anyway, I live next door in Ontario.

Quoting: damarrinAt least Call of Juarez is a game from 2007, I'd say the most you could count on back then were two cores.
640Kb should be enough for everyone

Quoting: PenglingSpelunky [External Link] (Proton) is in this Fest for £2.74. If you don't already have it, now's a really good time to pick it up for peanuts! :grin: (Honestly, this game is so endlessly replayable, I've never fully understood why it got a sequel...)
Does it have bombs or something? 🤔

The only logical explanation for this is that an army of Penguins boarded a warship to take to the mainland.
They successfully infiltrated Nvidia headquarters and are holding herrings to everyone’s throats.

Quoting: tfkSo, in layman terms, it does Bleep bloop Bleep instead of Bleep bloop bloop bloop Bleep, and that makes it faster?
That’s bleep-oulutley corr-bloop 🤖

Men of War II will launch with three playable nations - the Soviets, Americans and the Third Reich

Quoting: Purple Library Guy
Quoting: chuzzle44Weird, I'm getting sever performance drops depending on the direction I'm looking. No settings seem to have any effect.
This is just the game telling you not to look in that bad direction that probably has nasty monsters you don't want to see anyway.
I mean… if you can’t see them, they can’t see you right? Right?!? 😬

Microsoft open sources MS-DOS 4.0

I’ve always wondered if some of them wouldn’t mind releasing source code for some old outdated software and then they look at the code… 😬 and see how much duct tape, popsicle sticks and bubble gum held it together and thought it would be a bad image 😂

They are being vague so as not to release information on the game they’re working on.

Obviously the security improvements is that Barney Calhoun now has an HEV suit and gravity gun.

Fedora Linux 40 is officially out now

Quoting: WoodlandorWayland graphics flickering under Nvidia drivers seems to be fixed with the final release.

Still testing, but they haven’t shown up where I’ve experienced them in the past.

Edit:
Not with Steam set to GPU acceleration, apparently.
Crazy epileptic-warning flickering is indeed lessened greatly.
But it’s been replaced by frame dropping and hitching during any video playback.

Doesn’t present itself in most games.

Waiting on Nvidia to fix this.
