The usual points apply. It should be simple but not simpler than that. Gnome didn't nail it. But I think KDE developers get the idea in general.
I like the VtM reference in the linked article :)

Quoting: The_Aquabatseriously Physics effects are a bad joke? everything feels unfinished on cyberpunkThat's not my impression from it. It can be still improved surely, but it's already pretty good.

Quoting: The_Aquabatnot surpised since Cyberpunk is a pretty bad game.Not sure what you mean. I've been playing it for a while (close to completing it) and it's a very good game. It feels smaller than the Witcher 3 in scope though.

I think it's less about GOG and more about "too many games" issue? May be people just buy less games today because their backlogs are too long already. At least that's the case for me. And I buy almost all of my games from GOG and don't use Steam.

Quoting: denyasisI can say this for a fact as I work is place in a similar situation. The system that runs my entire workplace runs on... DOS.lol, yeah, that can happen :)

OpenGL for new projects will surely not be a thing. Non gaming applications are just progressing slowly, but they are going to move away from OpenGL, no question about it.

Quoting: EhvisNot to burst your bubble, but games aren't important.Not according to those who make money on gaming GPUs. You can check their earning reports to see how much that is.

NVIDIA takes on AMD FSR with their new open source Image Scaling

Quoting: GuestFrom what I read from a guy looking into integrating this into retroarch like FSR apparently this code drop is less portable and more constricted that what FSR does. It assumes you are using dx shaders and working with dx11, something AMD's solution does not.Are AMD at least using Vulkan for FSR?
In other words, it's half assed and not even good.

So to understand this better, Nvidia's new upscaling works on AMD too?

I used Gnome briefly in 2.0 days but switched to KDE when it started moving to 3.0. I agree that Gnome can't compete with KDE in flexibility.
I wish though KDE and KWinFT projects would collaborate. I'd also like to see KWin stop using OpenGL / EGL and switch to Vulkan / WSI.

12th Gen Intel Core processors announced with the 'world's best gaming processor'

AMD aren't going to for little cores approach in their Zen 4, so it will be pretty though for Intel to compete with that if they stick to their mixed approach.
