If you’re using Nvidia you’re definitely going to have a harder time. AMD GPUs are the path of least resistance. Edit: Also, avoid the Steam flatpak if you want maximum compatibility, sometimes it has issues. I stick with the official .deb

To each their own but I'm happy for them to pull a premium. As a customer: They're making gaming on Linux awesome, and my SteamDeck has killed off my console usage (YMMV), I love it so much. I'm way happier to buy games on St

It's a very common misconfiguration, though, because it happens by default when setting up CF. If your customers are, by default, configuring things incorrectly, then it's reasonable to ask if the service should surface the issue

Get the wing to yield exactly how they want it to from aero loads, but somehow lay up the carbon so it doesn't yield unacceptably under FIA static load tests? I think that's probably ingenious. Maybe a similar challenge in some re

There are over 35,000 in the game, they're mostly procedurally generated with some light editing to fix any major issues. 160 are handcrafted.

C617138 took one to MIT, IIRC. (Or was it 617139?) I didn’t have a login to that system, though. :-( Just a bored teenager on the west coast who’d somehow found an X.25 dialup number and it felt so mysterious and cool! Edit: oh hey! It was

Valve got a scare with Windows 8 that they could be pushed off the platform.[0] It became clear to them that they were just guests in a house owned by Microsoft. That was in 2012, the first Steam Machine (running Linux) came out 3 years lat

Ah, I read it too fast and missed the theft context regarding Satoshi's wallet. Thanks. Part of me hopes that in the not-too-distant future Satoshi will do a tiny transaction on his wallet just so all the speculation ramps up again and

About Epic, they're 35% owned by Tencent (with its inevitable unseen CCP entanglements) and 8% by Disney. That's plenty to put people off. GOG's great but they're not big enough to move any needles. Steam puts some of th

Same. And it reminds me, one of the great things about the TrackPoint is that it adds no size at all. (Okay, still need buttons, but those can be small.)

May I recommend a Steam Deck? It's terrific for gaming in short, interrupted bursts. Gotta go? Hit the power button, it immediately suspends the game. Hit the power button again later, it immediately resumes right where you left off. P
