Quoting: kon14I'm actually waiting for nvidia to get their shit together so as to be able to run Sway (an i3 compatible wayland wm based on wlc, a wayland compositor library) on my desktop :/Same here.
The Humble Devolver Bundle has a few decent Linux games for cheap

I've been interested in Not a Hero, and Dropsy for a while. $4 (the above-average for now) is a pretty good deal for both; considering that their regular prices add up to $22.

Though I wish they'd produced these with real mechanical key switches. At least the Sun keyboards that I've seen so far all had mushy membrane keyboards; and these are really painful to use for a buckling-spring snob.

Quoting: ShmerlI'm using Sun Type 5 with Unix layout:At school we have these attached to thin clients that run a virtualized instance of Windows XP each. Pretty sad usage for a unix keyboard.

Here's my humble setup. I hope you don't mind the stupid ancient Mac in the background.
The only thing I can really show off is my blank keyboard; a Unicomp Model M clone:

Steam Client Beta updated, fixes performance with Vulkan and Steam Overlay

In Greek the word is spelt with an 'X', not with a 'K'; but 'K' is a 'Greek' letter, so you could say it carries with it some of the original flavor.
Though, sure, it's probably a reference to the 'K' of the 'K'hronos group.

Quoting: tuubiMaybe for the same reason the organization is called Khronos group instead of Chronos group?Actually 'Chronos' is the Latinized form of a Greek word; and it could be spelt with a 'K' without conflicting with the original spelling.

Quoting: BdMdesigNNo, .16; I think it came out on April 8th.Quoting: wvstolzing364.16? Realy? Or did you mean 364.15?Quoting: melkemindWhen you run the Vulkan drivers, do they function well/normally with the desktop and other games, or do you have to switch back to other drivers when you're not testing Vulkan?They're absolutely fine with everything else. (I'm using the 364.16 right now.)

I mean, if the 'k' were at the beginning, I would've suspected intervention by the KDE e.V.; but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Quoting: minjThough seriously, why is it spelled with a 'k'? The word obviously derives from the Latin "Vulcanus" -- the Roman equivalent of Hephaestus; and in Latin the letter 'c' accounts almost exclusively for the 'k' sound.Quoting: Mountain ManNow we just need more games supporting Vulcan. :Dthis Vulkan typo is annoying, please stop

The Talos Principle beta updated, Vulkan performance improvements & optimizations

I had the exact same issue; turns out it's due to the in-game menu. If you start in Vulkan mode, it runs in Vulkan mode.
I'm glad to see that I get the exact same performance that I got under OpenGL, with mostly high, some ultra, settings.

Quoting: BoldosHmmmpfff - only a lack screen when I turn Vulkan on.....Try this as a startup option:
Quite unfortunate :(

The Witness may one day see a Linux port, for fun or for ideological purposes

Quoting: rustybroomhandleThis is a dev who proudly boasted about being connected via tube to a bottle so he could piss without leaving his desk.
Quoting: tuubiHe might very well be a self-satisfied twit and a drama queen, but the bottle of "piss" you're talking about was just a prop for an in-game video.So THAT's what they were spoofing in this video...
