Not a fan of this decision by Valve.
The limited legal precedent suggests ML art is uncopyrightable, and hence Public Domain, so it should be possible to include.
I wonder what specifically tripped Valve's alarm system.

Quoting: grigiMy wife has started making disapproving noises when I play Brotato. A sure sign of a great game :whistle:My wife likes it, since the 60s rounds mean I'm available on much shorter notice compared to ~15 min rounds in WarThunder

I'm confused. Why add Pluton to the same CPUs then? So you get open-source firmware with a backdoor?

Quoting: whizseDidn't expect that! :huh: So it means some shaders are wrongly cased, DirectX's HLSL parser does not care and Wine will just have to work with it for compatibility.Quoting: PikoloWTF is a case-insensitive float? Case sensitiveness would normally be a feature for text data types, not numbershttps://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/vkd3d/-/commit/dd36215a00174a1db560021562bad84cd37e3071 [External Link]
AIUI, essentially it allows for declaring a variable using "float" or "FLOAT"?

I have one complaint about the genre: Except for Brotato(happily purchased), all these games have horrible contrast between enemies and the environment. I don't want to tire my eyes, so I've been skipping them. Can we have more "aesthetically upbeat" or at least high contrast horde games? There is a reason 90s graphics look old...

If they do this, I'll have to change my mount points and backup procedures :(
I store my Steam games on a second drive. It's mounted on /opt, but in my experience snaps can't access stuff outside of /home unless installed in classic mode. I don't particularly want to change my mount to within /home - /home gets backed up, while the games shouldn't be
