In some cases it does make sense (imagine something like Voyagers for instance where you simply can't change things even if you wanted to), but in most cases it doesn't.

If it does almost nothing - may be not. Otherwise you'll be doing something in the main thread which will take time, unless you also squeeze concurrency (i.e. multitasking) into one thread and then again, why not use multiple threads

I see, that's good.

Not necessarily the environment, but compositor itself must be fast. It shouldn't introduce any delays that would affect for instance input latency in its processing loop. Gamers would for sure complain. Someone could totally make it d

It seems to rely on compton so no Wayland I guess, which makes is an interesting toy, but not a serious option.

Why couldn't LuaJIT support both? Feels like a needless limitation imposed on all its users. I noticed this problem when making plugins for neovim.

If you have the game on GOG, you can get GMDX as a separate free download: * https://www.gog.com/en/game/gmdx * https://www.gogdb.org/product/1553376539#builds

GOG has GMDX as a standalone install I think.

Turkey taught Putin what should happen to his military airplanes that violate their airspace. Putin got the message very quickly. Europe should do the same instead of pretending Putin will understand any weaker response. TL;DR: shoot them d

It's just their attempt to weasel out of the actual copyright expiration.

by shmerl 1y ago
Typical. They want to profit from copyright but they don't want it to ever expire even if the law requires it. Mickey Mouse curve is their invention.

That is true, especially when instructions are spooky like curl blah-blah | sh And people run that without thinking.

That's exactly the point. Nvidia might care about industrial use cases, while they don't care about desktop Linux usage and their support is garbage in result.

If you think taking decades is an acceptable rate while others do it in a timely manner it's your own problem. For any normal user it's completely unacceptable and is the opposite of great (add to it, that even after decades of dr

JavaScript should have been LiveScript if I recall correctly. It was a mistake to put Java in its name, but now everyone has to deal with the fallout. Oracle is still wrong here, but original intent why it didn't end up being LiveScrip

Taking very long to implement stuff is a perfect argument of bad support for the platform. Timely support isn't any less important than support in general.

by shmerl 1y ago
It got better, but my point is how long it took to get better. That's the indicator of how much they care about Linux use cases in general. Which is way below acceptable level - it's simply not their priority (which is also exac

> Both of which NVidia does a lot better in practice! Correction - if they care. And they don't care to do it on Linux, so you get them dragging feet for decades for something like Wayland support, PRIME, you name it. Basically, t

Huh, interesting. Very MS style of problem. Why can't they develop public OS interfaces for that? I.e. you don't need the full code for that, just interface libraries. Not having public interfaces in this day and age is simply dum
