Did the author run the benchmarks few times to rule out shader compilation.
Why should the author rule it out? Honest question. If shader compilation leads so worse real world experience for gamers on Windows than SteamOS, it is a valid point to include.
Deoccupied Ukraine. Very good.
A fall back of “kwin_x11 not found, let’s boot into kwin_wayland instead” is an upstream thing.
Telegram isn’t banned in Ukraine. Can’t be that bad.
Because the Jesus freaks will block positive progression, as always 😑
Jesus freaks will always complain about playing god when any type of genetic modification is used.
Pavel Durov had to flee Russia after resisting Putin’s influence on VK. That’s public information known to everyone who cares to spend a minute reading his Wikipedia article.
users running the old X11 session needs to manually install plasma-x11-session, or they will not be able to login
You’d think Plamsa would just offer a fallback to log into a Wayland session instead of completely failing.

Abyss Engine clean-room reimplementation of Diablo 2, written in C. The goal is to recreate the original game engine, but on a portable platform that can also easily be modded and extended.
the EU needs a smartphone brand like…yesterday
Germans, get cooking!
Yes, they incentivize another 0.001%. How is google going to survive this?
Tech geeks acting as multiplication factors are the people who brought Apple from obscurity to mainstream.
Maybe but those 1% of buyers are multiplicators incentivizing others to buy the same phone.
Full AOSP compatibility for Pixel devices is a huge reason to buy a Pixel instead of a 3rd party OEM. They’re shooting themselves in the foot.
This is the reason why I’m not a fan of permissive licenses.
If Google is the sole copyright holder, a copyleft license would change nothing because they still have the option to change the license going forward.
the SD Express 7.1 standard, which exposes a true PCIe Gen3 x1 interface
External GPU, here I come!

Switch 1 games could also support them. A recent story claimed generic mice would just work. That’s false.

It is still just using regular USB-C. I took inspiration from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Btwqt-w85Vk and used a similar cable to connect other devices of mine to the Switch 2 dock and they just work. Switch 2 seems to check the hardware ID. I’m sure if there is some kind of way to fake the hardware ID, Switch 2 would just work with other docks as well.
I can later do an “lsusb” command on Linux using the dock2 and read its hardware ID. The one I currenty use just says xxxxxxxx USB Type-C Digital AV Adapter
I’ve got a USB-c dock and it handled Ethernet and power for my 2 totally fine
Are you still using it in handheld mode? It’s not really docked when you hold it in your hand. I tried to connect three completely different docks to two different monitors, all worked fine with Switch 1 and my PC, none worked with Switch 2.
and I think it reported the keyboard although I didn’t test it.
There recently was a story that USB mice would work just like joycon in mouse mode. They don’t. Games have to explicitly support them, just like before.
Well, graphics got better but games didn’t evolve much.
