Proton didn’t exist in a vacuum though. It existed for Valves previously failed vision of the Steam Machine. Those were actual product lines that existed (briefly) to go along with Proton. The Steam Deck was Valve finally getting sick of no

I think you’re perhaps over indexing on the one game in the list. The other games in the list have no VR mode at all. So they could run standalone in a flat screen view, but with fairly poor performance. Gorilla tag also has an ARM version

Yeah whisky definitely exposes more of the wine underpinnings. Crossover is more user friendly but isn’t free. Crossover are the primary developers behind WINE and transitively, Proton. Steam just handles all the configuration elements of p

Imho it’s unlikely this is for natively running on a standalone headset. The overhead of translation alone would be just burning already limited compute budgets. The other games on their list are too demanding for untethered play in the wat

Just use Whisky ( https://getwhisky.app/ ) or CrossOver ( https://www.codeweavers.com/crossover ) While it would be great if Valve did what they do on SteamOS and just manage it themselves, it’s a very minor bu

This article is bunk and misinformation . Employees almost always get a single personal discount on launch day. I’ve managed to score many a launch day product from friends there. What they don’t get on launch day is their lower tier discou

I’m curious, what puts you off of them? Actors are pretty standard ways to do it, and I feel like most of the successful rust implementations are actor based as well.

To me, Swift has better ergonomics for most people. Ref counting by default makes most programs easier to deal with. Guard let (though recently somewhat introduced in rust) are much more friendly ways to unwrap optionals. Being able to prov

I changed the title a bit from Aras’s original because I felt that the original title wasn’t as clear. Hopefully that’s okay with folks. Aras does a lot of great deep dives into optimizing graphics programs and this one focuses on optimizin

Yes but not to the video feed that the other person sees. If you move around, your head moves too. If you stand up, you momentarily go out of frame before it applies a delayed sync. The idea being that it matches what a regular webcam would

The video is definitely exaggerated because they’re moving their whole head. Typing with your eyes is much faster and more subtle than what they show here.

It would be interesting to see both isolated. I don’t think eye tracking alone would give you the necessary bounds for inferring the keyboard size. For one, eyes flit around more and also are harder to see. I also wonder how easily this att

And therefore Apple doesn’t undermine any competing stores because they don’t exist. It’s really that simple. Any feelings to the contrary have no legal precedence to go off of. The EU had to pass an entire new regulation to allow alternate

Google have already been found guilty of using their position to undermine competition against their play store. It was a pretty smoking gun at that so it’s pretty fair to use that to follow other abuses of power. And besides, apple are alr

But since it’s a shared album, most of that lives in the cloud and not locally cached. If I was betting, most people likely pay for a cloud storage solution and don’t use the majority of their device storage.
