I don't want to say that millennials have better taste in stupid games than GenZ, but I do say so.

FINALLY!
Another half year to implement it properly and we are on a brink of year of Linux Desktop! And Half life 3 is going to be released around same time. And I will find a girl friend.

Would play it if not for PayToWin(pay to rest your crew, pay for certain behind paywall vehicles, etc.)

I have no problem to pay for game ones. But certainly not over 100$ a year for subscription game.

A few years too late.
Most of features are already implemented in KDE + MPV and on the way to Gnome.

Quoting: soulsourceI was aware that some distributions disable ICMP for regular users, but this is the first time I am wondering why they actually do that.

Does anyone know?

I think it does something else compared to what you think it does.

I am not a native english speaker, but way I understand it works(suspect) is this:
Their server or whatever sends a ping/packet/whatever from itself to client machine on some port 1-1000(which in linux is a restrictive set of ports, that is ONLY allowed to be opened by default by a root user, by default on most Linuxes anyway).
And by receiving this packet on some port, client machine OS send back a ICMP reply. Which later on that reply is being judged for some glitch/network delay exploit detection.
If set permission is not set an default policy of OS is not to respond - ICMP reply will not be generated/send. Hence it breaks their anticheat.

Its all speculation of course.

Quoting: BdMdesigNThe Ashes of Singularity Game will support Vulkan, i think ?!?

All the Game Dev's who supports Linux today, they will support Vulkan too.

They support also mantle and DX12. And no, not everyone who supports Linux will support Mantle.

I can imagine, porters who only port games from DX11 will not port to Vulcan. Same porters who port openGL game to Linux will not make it magically Vulcan game.
