The readme pretty much explains it: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope

Ironically, the Wayland compositor used by the steam deck, gamescope, doesn't support native Wayland applications. Even weirder, it runs inside an X11 session.

I recognized one of its sources: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnum_opus_(alchemy) Not coincidentally, a goal of alchemy and its etymology was producing gold.

XDR means nothing. It's an Apple buzzword. With DSC, you have at the minimum a fixed amount of bandwidth gain because blanking intervals can always be compressed, and DP is packetized without strict timing limitations. That should be e

All the Game Genies sat between the cartridge and console and intercepted and replaced accesses to specific ROM addresses. It didn't have the ability to access memory. Other devices like the Pro-Action Replay could modify memory and ac

That's exactly what happened. This is the original intent for subsurfaces. A bunch of Wayland developers got together and wrote the spec a long time ago. The only thing happening now is Gtk making use of them transparently in the toolk

I doubt there's much difference. Just implementation details. The retroarch spec is a lot to code if you're just looking for one or two shaders. Also FYI: your link features a lot of shaders using the megabezel presets, which are

Agreed. The retroactive revenue cost was illegal, so it wouldn't have gotten past the courts. Unity execs probably thought devs were more locked into their platform than they actually are, so it wouldn't be challenged.

I'm of the opinion he was a scapegoat to draw the ire of the decision. The board were going to try to make that change anyway. If it went well enough that they didn't have to fire him, they'd still have him as a buffer for an

Yeah, regular LTO, not thin LTO, isn't currently threaded. CMake uses the former.

by BearOso 3y ago
Yes, but that CMake option also doesn't specify thin LTO, so you're only going to get 1 thread with LLVM.

Spoiler alert: it mentions d2jsp, but nothing about forum gold. That's a shame since it theorizes about social standing being used as a currency backing of sorts, so it hints at the idea.

Lots of displays support 120Hz or above. That's actually something Apple has been late to the party with. On the other hand, Apple has problems with the M series chips and high refresh rate mode timings on external displays, so you&#x2

This is often true. But some times the older programmers can't adapt to the new technology and we get technical disasters like the newer Pokemon games.

So difficult to orchestrate that it's unfeasible, so there's effectively 0% risk involved. Yet another scary nickname and domain name for it says unprofessional and untrustworthy to me.

At this rate, SMIC with its ex-TSMC employees and stolen IP is going to surpass them pretty quickly. That's unfortunate, as we could really use a leading-edge fab that is separate from the volatile political relations in East Asia.

From what I've heard about Oryon, there's lots of complaints from OEMs about poor performance and battery use due to strange restrictions Qualcomm put on the power delivery system. They're effectively requiring a set of mobil

Of course. When you buy out all the capacity of the TSMC 3nm node for a year and use it to make huge, low-yield chips and charge a small fortune for them, you can get some performance advantages. Intel's fabs are catching up, though, a

It's the layman's definition of science. As of [current date] humans know everything, and anything not fitting the current world view is wrong. Often perpetuated by people who are not scientists.

They're both at least masters of EE, and not drop-outs. I find that refreshing for CEOs, and it shows an individual passion for and knowledge of their product. Intel's new CEO Gelsinger follows the same trend after a slew of MBAs.

Hotz is known for hacking the iPhone and PS3. But you should look deeper into that before giving him any credit. His post is mostly hot air. AMD driver development is very open, excepting only ROCm. Not knowing where things are discussed
