Yeah this seems common. I had a friend who grew up with parents who alternated between English, Portuguese, Italian, and French, and he told me he wound up not being able to speak at all until he was over 2 years old. It didn’t affect him badly later on, and he always insisted it was worth it

Unless the game is solely bottlenecked by processing stuff

yyyyep. Pretty much any mainline GPU made since 2010 should be able to handle TF2 just fine, and if you’ve got a 1060 or better I seriously doubt your GPU is the problem. The problem is that CPU usage is horribly optimized and it can only really utilize 2 threads (not cores, threads). After that it’s your clock speed that makes a difference.

I played competitively on a 680 and an overclocked i5-4690k@4.2Ghz until I finally upgraded last year, and would only dip below 100FPS playing pubs on Halloween. In 6s I never went below 200.

I mean, back in the day, I already used to get better performance when I would boot in Ubuntu 16 instead of Windows. Not sure that’s the case anymore with modern stock Ubuntu but I imagine Mint would still do better thanks to having less bloat. But I have trouble imagining that better shaders are going to help many people at all.

edit: the vulkan update probably won’t help. the switch to 64 bit has the potential to be HUGE.

This might help very slightly but it isn’t gonna fix it. Runs terrible on windows too

But Twin Galaxies’ own lawyer, David Tashroudian, faced misconduct claims of his own after he improperly contacted two witnesses in the case — prompting Superior Court Judge Wendy Chang, who’s overseeing the case, to consider referring him to the State Bar for discipline.

I’m no lawyer, but this seems like small potatoes in comparison to Mitchell’s actively fabricating evidence and lying under oath. Absolutely shameful that after years of litigation TG’s case falls apart thanks to an idiot lawyer. Hope that lawyer gets paid nothing and Jobst’s lawsuit goes better; Mitchell needs to see real consequences for the years of intimidation and lies.

Redmond and blutarch are gonna be SEETHING when I collapse the gravel industry

you have now

classic badly placed forum signatures. who wouldn’t want every single one of their posts to open with a cry for help?

macfarlane seems surprisingly open minded considering the bottom tier humor he’s spouted through family guy for so many years. the trans episodes of the orville seemed really on point to me

if they’re anything like cable ads, they actually make the ads louder than the regular programming on purpose to try to make sure you hear it if you tune out or just walk away. no relaxed, unfocused watching for you!

Even those “notables” still show up on the fediverse tracker, so they shouldn’t be going uncounted.

For what it’s worth, here’s an account that reposts everything NASA puts out: https://social.beachcom.org/@nasa

wouldn’t an untradeable share just be worthless? give employees stock options

I had a local paper do this to me a few years ago. Turns out I can ask my credit card provider to block payments to them at 2am on a Saturday and I still get access to the paper for another two months.

was it 10 thousand years now? in the movies they alternate between saying “a thousand years” or “a thousand generations.” i mean, either way i think your point stands, but still

And here I was just reading that AMD GPUs showed much better performance in Starfield. Maybe it’s because they’re just not rendering stuff at all lmao

I want to switch to gaming on linux so bad. Just a few weeks ago I ran into a sudden issue where any source game I launched in windows would crash my graphics driver, totally unrecoverable without restarting the PC (even shift+ctrl+win+b did nothing) and on some restarts I found myself being forced to boot on integrated graphics and fully reinstall drivers. Total shitshow, started while I was midgame and came out of nowhere, couldn’t figure anything out.

I finally gave up and installed mint, got steam set up and downloading, started moving over some my backed up files… only to find out that a thing I’d ordered to make my VR headset wireless wasn’t going to have Linux drivers. I was gonna have to dual boot windows at the very least. And I’ve had other experiences where Windows updates have broken Grub and forced me to do reinstalls as well, so…

The day can’t come fast enough where companies just build stuff for Linux. The Windows UI gets worse with every release, and it’s really not as bug-free as people seem to think, it just has market share and companies tend to build for it by default. Completely self-fulfilling prophecy.

Xbox emulation looks underdeveloped compared to PlayStation and Wii, but from what I can tell Xenia has come a long way in the last couple of years. If you’re willing to give it a go, you could try ripping the games off your discs and just play on PC

lemmy has like 100k users, maybe less if we go by users within the last month. definitely way way more than before the api debacle but nowhere near millions
