Quoting: Liam DaweIt's one dude that runs the site. The DB stats report only runs every few hours. I imagine the GoL team will show up less than a day.Quoting: 14The 245680 team must be freshly out of the oven because I don't see any stats populated at extremeoverclocking [External Link] yet.Really, they need to clean up the Team system. I can see no reason for it not to show up. It's listed on my PC for my own folding quite clearly and using the ID I can go back and edit the Team details but it doesn't currently show in public lists.

I've been wondering if we should post this here. I've been folding [External Link] on and off for years. Happy to see it promoted!

Valve's card game Artifact is still being worked on for a big revamp

Needless to say, I disagree with you. But that's fine.

Quoting: KimyrielleUsually when people speak in ultimatums, they're exaggerating due to a lazy mind or anger-fueled irrationality.Quoting: 14Not sure which part of "100% no exceptions" wasn't so clear.Quoting: KimyrielleOh, like Dota 2?Quoting: rkfgMake it F2P,100% of all so-called "free"-to-play games suck. As in all of them, no exceptions. Because all of them are designed to suck unless you dump more money into it than you ever would in an actual for-purchase game.
I'm fine with buying a digital card game if I can play a trial mode first. I was too hesitant to put money down on Artifact and so never experienced it. I wish they had a free weekend or a trial mode of some sort. I also think it's OK to charge money for card packs just like Magic (etc) does in the physical world... as long as the game includes a Draft mode!

Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition has a big update out and new story DLC coming soon

Quoting: GuestFor me the biggest issue is the interface scaling. The fonts are simply too small on my resolution (1680x1050) and monitor size (22in). It is literally unplayable unless i play at a much lower resolution.I just launched the game to see what my settings were at. I play at 1080p. My UI scale is at 1x (surprisingly). But I knew I had changed something to fix the font a long time ago. Turns out it's inside Advanced Video options. You can enable high-resolution font. See if you don't already have that enabled. To me, the game text looks like a system font and not really a custom game font (the game log text, not in the menus).
Fast-paced arcade combat-racing with RC cars 'PocketCars' adds Linux support

Yes, it does make me think of Re-Volt straight away, however I see a problem. The cars look like they act too heavy. Notice how they do not act like lightweight RC cars when they go over bumps and ramps. Real RC cars easily become airborne, which adds to the fun difficulty. If you hit a bump in the middle of a corner, you are going to soar a little bit off course. It does not look like that happens in this game.
Linux hardware vendor System76 will have their own Keyboard out this year

The only "problem" I see with a big layout change is I'll have to get two so I don't have to switch back and forth at work and at home. To be honest, I think Tchey's keyboard layout looks more radical and worth trying than the System76 prototype. I agree with the space bar length being too long right now though.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPLeft hand is left of the space key, right hand is right of it....I read it that way first as well, but that's not what is meant. Pinky usage is a separate point than the space bar length.
Standard 10-finger typing.
How the hell would you use the pinky finger for space?
Haven't even seen people who do not type with 10 fingers use their pinky finger to press the space bar.

Half-Life: Alyx support for Linux aiming to arrive with Vulkan support post-release

The repositioning mechanic is annoying to watch. And, due to the lack of fluid movement, each corner looks like a new "scene" waiting for you to get in place. I'm not saying it can't be fun, but it might be hard for me to get used to (or ignore). On the flip side, it makes me think of Resident Evil games. RE5 had a stiff feel to it, yet it was grand fun after I got used to it! So, Alyx might just take a lil getting use to. And was that Dead Space style weapon upgrades?

Quoting: 14Fair enough, except I don't have a 4K setup. Also, when I got Witcher 3, it was not in a playable state on Linux.Quoting: Xpander[That video you linked is probably not running on max settings even, but still ther's a difference.. yeah Witcher 1 comparsion was oversaturated, but the difference really is night and day, i have seen both versions (on PS4 pro and on PC) in real life :)
I knew I'd trigger someone. Looks more like Witcher 1? Have you even played Witcher 1?! Don't be absurd. https://youtu.be/1fUGFmmikn4 [External Link]
Here more acurate what the difference is:

The Witcher 3 had the same graphics on PC and PS4, but I am suspecting that won't be the case with Cyberpunk, so I'd rather experience the PC version.What are you even talking about? Witcher 3 on PS4 looks more like Witcher 1 on PC. Even on PS4 pro. Textures are lower, everything is more blurry, detailed rendering distance is super low on PS4 Pro, Shaders that make the materials like clothes look excellent on PC are not there, Shadows are much weaker on PS4 and distant effects, like smoke, mist etc are all lower detailed... there are more ofc. but its quite night and day imo
