Google want Stadia to have exclusive games other platforms can't support

Technical Exclusivity is kind of OK - but i HIGHLY doubt that will be the case. I simply don't see them assigning much more CPU/GPU-Power to a single instance than a modern gaming PC provides. The claim might hold true for mobile games or consoles, but other than that it will probably be the blant, simple, anti-consumer political exclusivity that is plaguing us with other consoles already...

While i don't really appreciate pixelart that is just plain "oldschool" (like ion fury ;) ), i love games where oldschool graphics style is "reinvented" with modern effekts - like prodeus or kingdom two crowns for example.
The same time i like oldschool shooters, do i really look forward to Prodeus :D

Lets hope they roll it out for Linux, too and not leave us out like with streaming ^^

The Blender team have secured even more funding, this time from NVIDIA

On the one hand, it is good that blender gets funding - on the other hand i'd hate to see funding on a FOSS-Project "wasted" by supporting closed stuff like CUDA :/

What's that? Another Steam Client Beta update? With a Linux platform filter? Yes it is

Overlay works for me fine on Vulkan with async compute on now.

Which is only active with either TSAA 8X or no AA modes.

Be sure you have Vulkan libs properly installed.
nope, all installed - has been crashing on my old machine with vulkan, too...
So unless it's something fundamental with manajro i don't see what might be missing :/

on first glance, i quite like it.
only "downside" i noticed right now is that the contrast between installed/not installed games is not as clear as before.

You may want to hold off on Linux Kernel 5.3 and systemd 243 if you use a gamepad

I've had 5.3 rc7 and 243 for a while (manjaro reverted back to 242 in the meantime), and didn't notice any issues with my xbox 360. At least not in Project Cars 2.

War Thunder 1.91 'Night Vision' is out with the Chinese nation, new sound engine and Easy Anti-Cheat

Quoting: M@GOidIt is my impression, or people complaining about performance on the native version are using Nvidia, while others saying its fine are on AMD?
nope, AMD here

Quoting: dubigrasuI keep hearing about how bad native version runs, but I don't see it. It works and looks just fine for me, actually more than fine, quite good.
Probably looks better (?) with SteamPlay, but horrid, really?
yeah, it looks OK for itself - but even then, the performance is laughable. And once you compare the graphical fidelity of native vs proton (on the same settings) and consider that proton runs on 3-4 times the FPS while looking considerably better - then yes, "horrid" is not the worst word to describe it... ;)

Also - it's been a while since i checked, but has the native version finally got cockpits implemented? Or are they still missing?
