Quoting: blindcoderI _want_ to pick one up, but it's _still_ a lot of money for a device I don't really _need_.I told myself the same, now I use Steam Deck for at least 30% of my gaming, for some weeks this number jumps to 100%.

Yes, this is good. Gotta get rid of the AI generated images (it is difficult to call it art).

Quoting: F.UltraI hope we get an early SDL2->3 shim library this time in before distros decide to make SDL2 obsolete.We will. Which brings us to the question: Will SDL 1.2 to SDL 2.0 compatibility library be compatible with SDL 2.0 to SDL 3.0 compatibility library?!

Quoting: ShabbyXSDL is awesome, but it looks like it's planning to to be not-so-simple anymore.Why not?
Like, we don't need yet snother 3d graphics API. Especially not now when the serious APIs (like Vulkan) are still struggling trying to figure out how to best do things. APIs like SDL's would end up based on those 3 APIs and naturally make the same mistakes.

Quoting: CyrilI played both - LoL is much worse.Quoting: hardpenguinSo, same as LoL, but I never played Dota so I can't say which is worse.I actually played a couple of games with a friend on the new map recently, and it was surprisingly a really great time. The map definitely feels a whole lot better now and the game works really great on Linux too.Yeah playing with friends, preferably a full team of five is preferable. Unless you don't mind the toxicity...
