QuoteWe can imagine many scenarios, but the most plausible scenario is that she presented herself to him as entirely willing. Assuming she was being coerced by Epstein, he would have had every reason to tell her to conceal that from most of his associates.

But even that lacks the context of the whole, without the original source, so take it with a grain of salt.

Are we talking about a 17-year-old girl and a 70+-year-old geezer? And this is supposed to be the "most plausible scenario" in RMS imagination? Yes, there might be cases where a young girl presents herself as willing under such circumstances. But I would call them "most implausible".

Another one found a solution:

http://support.primatelabs.com/discussions/geekbench/36264-vulkan-not-available-on-linux-mint-latest-padoka-ppa-mesa-and-amd-gpus

Makes you wonder, how the developers tested their own benchmark. Doesn't work OTOB on Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora...

Any idea what to do about that?

I ran this command for Vulkan "./geekbench_x86_64 --compute vulkan"

As stated: Doesn't work.

Quoting: EikeSo, BTW and IMHO, having to set environment variables would be gold, not platinum.

Something not all submitters appear to honour. I see a lot of platinum reports that still mention a specific setting. So I expect the realistic number of platinums to be lower in favour of gold.

OTOH there are enough gold ratings which don't request tweaks (or report annoyances where it is unclear whether they occur on Windows as well). Gold quotes taken from games I would all rate as platinum:

Quote"Disabling Esync isn't strictly necessary but it does make the main menu animations run a bit smoother. Both the main game and snapmaps work."

"Runs fine without any tweaks but suffers from mildly annoying stuttering. I'm sure there is a fix but I've just dealt with it."

"I reduced the resolution in order to be playable on my old laptop."

"Full playthrough"

"Works really well apart from slight stutter when starting a level."

"Worked perfectly except resolution which was 4:3 but would probably be fixable with minor tweaks." (ann: all Steam screenshots show that Fieldrunners IS 4:3.)

Quoting: g000hI grabbed the (just ended) July Subscription and very happy that I did:

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice (early reveal) - should work fine on Proton

Not "should". It works flawlessly.

So far again no problems with Proton.

QuoteWhat are your thoughts?

That Wester is either an idiot or a hypocrite. I'd go for the latter.

I would more say that he is speaking from the viewpoint of his own company, it's of course in Paradox best interest to keep their own prices as high as possible while having to pay as little as possible to others like Valve. That is hardly being a hypocrite.

He said "This doesn't cost anything." Then he's an idiot. I can live with that, too.

Quoting: gojulGood that games work perfectly with Proton as native ports get more and more scarce. On the flip side Proton works so well that some games that stopped working on Windows like Act of Treason and it made some ports unnecessary.

This made me stop and think.
Can you use Steam Play on Windows?

No. Wine is not available and DXVK is unsupported for Windows. I suppose one could try to get it running but it won't be worth the effort.
