In one word: browser

If the CPUs get strong enough, they could run old raytracing games at some point … especially on hardware platforms that don’t have ray tracing GPUs available for them.

DP also has the DRMs HDCP 2.2 and DisplayPort content protection 1.0

And MPEG LA claims they have patents that are needed to implement the DP standard.

There are two ways of doing doing bullet points (unordered lists) in markdown:

- now using ULWGL-protonfixes
- can now call the winetricks gui using `util.protontricks(‘gui’)`
- winetricks now performs an internet check before attempting any downloads
[…]
* protonfixes added for Alien Breed: Impact
* protonfixes added for Alien Breed 2: Assault
* protonfixes added for Alien Breed 3: Descent
* protonfixes added for Black Desert Online `NOSTEAM=1` option. Launch game like `NOSTEAM=1 %command%` to launch non-steam standalone version. 

It also supports ordered lists:

1. fixed `[S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init()` failed; no appID found. from being reported when running non-steam games
2. non-steam games will now run using wine inside proton rather than calling steam.exe with wine then the game inside steam -- this goes alongside the API failure fix
3. controller axis patch added from 8-27 has been removed as it is now properly upstreamed

I don’t think decompilation is the best way due to higher risks of git repo takedowns due to copyright violations. And the above mentioned “clean-room reverse engineered decompilations” contradicts itself since it’s either decompiled or clean room.

But that aside it can be somwhat useful for games with similar engines, but yes they are usually games with a quite active community. As soon as one of the games has a working port basing ports for other games on it is a lot easier than starting from scratch. This can affect not so important games using bigger engines.

examples:

• ScummVM supports a lot of engines (90 something) and even more games (325) by now. With few engines (SCUMM, SCI) supporting a lot of games.
• OpenRCT2 has its original/main focus on Rollercoaster Tycoon 2, but also (works on) supports Rollercoaster Tycoon.
• Openage has its original/main focus on Age of Empires II, but also (works on) supports Age of Empires and Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds.
• OpenRW has its original/main focus on Grand Theft Auto III, but also (works on) supports Vice City and San Andreas.
• OpenMW has its original/main focus on The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind , but also (works on) supports Oblivian and Skyrim.
• FreeHL (based on doom) has its original/main focus on old Half Life and Half-Life: Deathmatch, but the author also works on various mods for it: Counter-Strike 1.5, Team Fortress Classic, Scientist Hunt, Gunman Chronicles, Poke646, They Hunger, Opposing Force.
• OpenRA has its original/main focus on Command & Conquer: Red Alert, but also (works on) supports Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn, Dune 2000, Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2.
• Julius has its original/main focus on Caesar III, but also (works on) supports Pharaoh.
• Xoreos has its original/main focus on Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, but also (works on) supports Neverwinter Nights, Neverwinter Nights 2, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II, Jade Empire, Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood, The Witcher, Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age II.
• GemRB implements Infinity Engine and no idea if it ever was focuse on a single game, but they (works on) supports Baldur’s Gate 1, Planescape: Torment, Icewind Dale 1, Baldur’s Gate 2 and Icewind Dale 2.

Let’s not forget that Valve released a Linux port for TF2 in 2012, released their native client in 2013, released SteamOS in 2013 and in the end ported nearly all their games to linux. It didn’t start with Proton.

But Humble Bundle pushed ports before that, because games had to have a Linux port in order to get into the bundle.

It also compares two different things. At first birds from North America an Australia, then the coat of arms of the US and Germany.

I guess as an extinct species it would fit between the australian an german one, as the former seems to exist and the latter never has.

Oh wait … Ursprungsland Taiwan is Swedish? That would be also valid German, but it’s the only text there that would.

Well, but New York is actually named after the duke of York

Edit: New York, New York City and Albany were all named after James II king of England and Ireland who was also James VII of Scottland, because before he became king he was duke of York and duke of Albany.

Yes, US annexed New Mexico and Texas, which originally belonged to Mexico.

Well, the more popular a name the likelier it is that some screwed up person has that name.

• Stalin was a Joseph (Ioseb).
• Leopold II of Belgium was a Leopold (Léopold), with second names Lewis (Louis) and Philipp (Philippe).
• Lenin was a Vladimir (Владимир).
• Obote was a Milton.
• Mussolini was a Benedict (Benito).
• Franco was a Francis (Francisco).
• Tito was a Joseph (Josip).
• Micombero was a Michael (Michel).

Yes, you are right. I only had Cfb (Temperate oceanic) in mind, which is indeed quite small. But there is also a lot bigger area covered by Cfa (Humid subtropical). And both together are indeed more than twice as large as Germany.

*boners

When Hitler was born, Adolf was one of the 50 most popular first names in Germany, even though he wasn’t born in Germany.

Wasn’t there already a German population before WW2 because there is a small patch in Argentina with similar climate to Germany?

Yes, some of the bigger communities there are !pcgaming@lemmy.ca, !til@lemmy.ca, !wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca, !lemmyconnect@lemmy.ca, !bicycles@lemmy.ca, !trippinthroughtime@lemmy.ca, !traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns@lemmy.ca, !plex@lemmy.ca and !shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca. And none of these are Canada-specific. I guess I have to follow !fediverselore@lemmy.ca now 😀

Canadians are Americans too.

No … my alts always have different names. But they are for things I don’t want others to know.

Doesn’t blahaj.zone itself throw errors all the time?
