Got the same thing. If you switch to German the page is entirely different and has the missing checkbox.

It was never replaced. Paint 3D was an entirely different app for 3D art only. It's also been gone for a few years now.

Yes, but it's still a single-file deployment option that can easily cross-compile. Just with slower startups.

Pretty much, yes. For example reflection is severely limited in .NET AOT vs. JIT, runtime generated code is more common than you'd think and cannot be done AOT. Go was designed for AOT so they already built everything around the limita

You also have the option to do single file deployment where it self-extracts the runtime when you run it. It's not as nice but it works and maintains full compatibility.

This is not going to get rid of peer pressure. That existed long before kids had phones and it will continue to be a problem with this. Parents should be there to teach rather than just restrict. Kids will need to learn how to recognize and

How is it better on Windows? It doesn't do anything to prevent third-party software from injecting into system processes.

But those levels are kind of bullshit. If a car is autonomously driving but needs an attentive driver in the seat for legal reasons you're stuck at what, level 2? Even if you never actually need to override/intervene? Teslas runni

Supersampling the entire framebuffer is a bad way to anti-alias fonts. Especially since your font rendering is almost certainly doing grayscale anti-aliasing already, which is going to look better than 2x supersampling alone. And supersampl

It does show open doors etc. but if not that then what would you show on the screen? You can already shrink it so the rightmost 3/4 of the screen is the map, leaving just 1/4 of the screen for the car visualization and indicators.

They just haven't announced any plans to do so yet. They might one day. They will not be using .NET AOT probably ever though. Unity's AOT basically supports full C# (reflection etc) while .NET opted to restrict it and lean more on

There were also a lot of performance improvements to .NET over the last few years.

One annoying piece of Unity's CoreCLR plan is there is no plan to upgrade IL2CPP (Unity's AOT compiler) to use a better garbage collector. It will continue to use Boehm GC, which is so much worse for games.

It's ancient. The latest version of Unity only partially supports C# 9. We're up to C# 14 now. But that's just the language version. The Mono runtime is only equivalent to .NET Framework 4.8 so all of the standard library imp

Yes, they are easy to port a lot of the time. Especially now because you can use DXVK to translate DirectX calls into Vulkan, so you don't need to write a Vulkan renderer. Input is sometimes a trickier one to deal with but a lot of the

100 MB per runtime, for everyone, and the majority of them are out of support. Is that really the good option? Why not the option the author dismissed: a 9 MB AOT-compiled executable which doesn't need a separate runtime?

.NET versions are not fully backwards compatible. Would you like every Windows install to ship with over ten versions of the .NET runtime?
