I was thinking about maybe getting it, then noticed there was no numpad and decided it was not for me...

Quoting: Rooster
Quoting: The_Aquabatthere's only one user with a 7680x4320 monitor, who's the fortunate? I'm a bit jealous. :P
My favorite statistic is that there are 3 people here with 12 monitors. Not one. Three.
I just got my third and fourth monitors recently.

I'm genuinely surprised by the number of people that continue to only have one monitor. Jump from 2 to 4 felt really nice, but the going from 1 to 2 is absolutely game changing.

NVIDIA 465.24.02 stable driver rolls out for Linux

Plus the nvidia-settings panel should be "more consistent about displaying layout controls which are only applicable for some displays or GPUs connected to the system".
I swear that entire panel needs a major overhaul. I think this is the first time they've touched it in literally years though, so... fingers crossed?

I remember trying the demo for this quite a while back. I didn't get much farther than making a simple house. Based on that trailer it seems like a lot has been added to the game since.

AMD announces Ryzen 5000 Series Mobile CPUs, RDNA 2 GPUs in the first half of 2021
12 Jan 2021 at 6:24 pm UTC

Quoting: TobyGornow
AMD confirmed today that RDNA 2 will be coming to gaming notebooks next, with desktop GPUs based on RDNA 2 to follow along. Both of which are being targeted for a release in the first half of 2021.
Maybe I'm mistaken but aren't the 6800 series already based on RDNA 2 ? Or are they announcing new GPU already when the current GPU are not available ( at least in my country ) ? Ironic, ain't it ?
It's the latter I'm pretty sure. Keynote didn't have much to say about these new GPUs, unless I missed something, so what they'll end up being can be anyone's guess. My guess is they'll be trying to slot in some cards at lower performance brackets, like what Nvidia seems to be doing.

Fantasy RTS city-builder Songs of Syx has sold over 11 thousand copies

Huh, I'm actually kind of surprised that the Linux sales are so small. I always thought small indie games like this tended to have a bigger skew towards linux.

I haven't bought this game yet myself, but the demo seemed pretty promising, I'm just waiting for it to get some more features.

Well... It's not promising. The demo crashes whenever I try to start the game :/
