Slice and Dice - it recently had a big upgrade, and I got into the game after watching a few videos

I think the name is terrible - if they want it to be different from "Early Access", they should call it "Early Release".

Advanced Access sounds like it gives you command flags for the game executable :grin: - "Advanced Access" =/= "Access in Advance"

`humans still capable of manipulation can now crawl on the ground instead of being fully incapacitated` - poor blood banks - now they will have both arms amputated instead of just legs...

Same, especially since the Fisherman character is not among my favourites ;)

Quoting: SpurlosI wonder if every bit will fail in the right place for the OS like Ubuntu 24.04 LTS to get it working, or people who are stuck with LTS releases would have to wait for another two years to get everything in the main repos?

I'm afraid this is too late for 24.04 - maybe for 24.10?

Quoting: fenglengshunHm... and the NVK isn't a kernel driver? I think it's in Mesa, so does that mean it's the userspace driver? Sorry, really don't know about the details - all I've been hearing is about how NVK is supposed to be a replacement for Nouveau.

nvk is a Vulkan implementation that uses the kernel driver, so no, it's not a kernel driver itself. So it's either nvk + nouveau or nvk + nova.

Or NVK + Zink, which at this point seems the efficient solution. I do not know, I cannot bring myself to be interested in this project :neutral:

Stricly speaking it would be Nova + nvk + zink.
Nova controlling the GPU directly, NVK using Nova to run Vulkan on the GPU, and Zink running OpenGL on Vulkan.

Quoting: ElectricPrismI really don't like companies beholden to Wallstreet Stock Investors. The companies have 2 masters and they always pick their stock holders over their customers -- infact it's legally codified that they are required to otherwise they could be sued for not squeezing every dollar and cent.

That's not really true. Officers of the company have a duty to act for the benefit of the company, and can be sued if they don't - that much is true. But that doesn't mean they're required to maximizes short term profit at the detriment of long term value - that would just be dumb.
