It's missing features that D3D11 had in 2009. Compute shaders in particular are a huge feature that GL4.1 doesn't have.

4.1 is not a fairly modern version. That was released in 2011 and doesn't even have compute shaders which D3D11 had in 2009.

Crossover ships a version of DXVK without geometry shaders and transform feedback. That unfortunately breaks games using UE4 and Unity. And causes issues with distorted and invisible enemies in Witcher 3. And missing effects in Overwatch. Y

> CSGO has a builtin DX to OpenGL translation layer. They're not using Proton or DXVK, it's Linux native OpenGL. It's D3D9 to OpenGL, and it's open source and called ToGL. On Linux you can also opt in to use DXVK by u

No. The current development version of DXVK requires support for Vulkan 1.3 There are missing features for older versions too: - bufferRobustness2 - geometry shaders - transform feedback - tessellation is super but very slow and problematic

It's not just about warnings, Apple only supports OpenGL 4.1 which was released in 2011.

OpenGL is huge. It's probably a better idea to use the shared code in Mesa and write a Gallium to Metal driver. That's how Zink (GL on Vulkan) and Microsofts GLonD3D12 work.

So we should just ignore the climate crisis?

Pretty sure you can't factory reset iPhones without the password either.

The problem is that Qualcomms CPUs are just a lot slower than what AMD and Intel offer. It's not the fault of the OS.

Did they actually mandate that? I thought what the EU mandated was mostly about payment services.

Are they seriously reporting Max Tech as news now? Those guys have absolutely no clue what they're talking about and just make bullshit click bait.

This is borderline climate denial, not "calm and reasonable". If you want to tell yourself that things are somehow gonna be fine, then feel free to go ahead. It just doesn't line up with an absolutely overwhelming scientific

This is wishful thinking. Climate change is well researched. A lot of predictions made about it in the 80s and 90s were only off because the reality is much worse. > Humans will adapt to the earth’s conditions It's tough to adapt to

Because that would require admitting we're screwed and cost a lot of money without any short term benefit. Both of those things aren't great ideas if you want to get elected.

Android is not really a Linux distro in the usual sense. It only ships the kernel and none of the GNU userspace components that a typical Linux distro has.

OpenGL was practically deprecated on MacOS since 2012. It hasn't been updated since 2011.

The feature list basically sounds like Swift.

To be fair Chrome is also far ahead of Firefox when it comes to performance and security (not to be confused with privacy). Safari is fast but compatibility is lacking, not just compared to Chrome.

Sounds interesting. How do you store assets? Unless it's a tiny game (for which UE4 isn't a great fit either) you could be looking at having to download 100MB or more every time you launch the game.

I often feel like that a lot of people just decide they must have ADHD simply because they struggle with wotk they don't want to do and aren't interested in or procrastinate. That's perfectly normal human behavior though...

W^X doesn't get you very far on iOS. Apps are not allowed to make pages executable at all.

What do you mean by voxel based games? And why would software rendering be fast on the M1?
