   > Almost all the famous, proprietary, high-performance game engines (id Tech, Frostbite, Slipspace, REDEngine, Source) target D3D exclusively. You've said it there, hence my reply

   iD Tech, Source 2, Unreal, and Unity support Vulkan. iD Tech targets Vulkan exclusively on PC: https://twitter.com/billykhan/status/1028133659168186368 Other points are also blatantly untrue, but I think I have ma

   You're generalising that small sample too much. Even their findings suggest healthcare professionals exercise more, and smoke less. As for "living in a community", I would trust more the kindness and humanity in general, than

   Is that so? I find a lot of value in certain Fediverse instances. They don't seem contrived, just humane (I know some aren't, I don't intend to go to those).

   Yeah, that was absurd too.

   Oh, I can see that. Don't get me wrong, it must be a blast. But, for F1 cars specifically, it doesn't lend itself to great action.

   I wonder, can't distros provide pipewire configs and patches? I've had great success with my laptop (other maker) with both a kernel patch for DSD and a quite straightforward pipewire config (the filters.avail folder has examples

    I'm going to be honest, none of the US tracks have been great. Miami's asphalt was too rough, Austin's was a quintessential Hermann Tilke design (read: boring). Hope Las Vegas is different, otherwise it really isn't a go

    Great! But try to use regional demonyms instead of nonexistent countries (at the time). i.e. "Iberians" instead of "Spanish"

    Alright, fair enough. I might have not explained myself well then. Blender "shortcuts" are most of the time one key, followed by others, alternative variations can be achieved with modifier keys (makes sense). It takes very little

    It's not intuitive if you don't know it. When you do know the common keybindings you feel as if modelling by hand. There are 14 year olds making great use of it [1]. [1] https://variety.com/2023/film/news

    My response was based on my own experience. Hence the remark. What I've observed was also dictated by my own choices.

    Maybe I'm biased, being in EU and all. But I've seen more Linux than Windows in those environments.

    Vcpkg is a Microsoft thing. No project I know, besides those targeting Windows only even consider it. But, I'm probably biased by my software choices.

    I agree, I stay away from CMake whenever possible. I've tried so much to understand it, and yet, it kicks me around like a pinata

    I appreciate the sanity it brings. More software should be like that, as you implied. Or, so I read as such.

    Mastodon, and the Fediverse in general, make user interaction decisions on purpose to limit many of the issues common to social media. Think about: mob culture, addiction, and the like. I wonder if BlueSky intends to follow on those. For ex

    If the codebase is anything more than a simple Python project... I don't think that'll happen. It just doesn't scale that well. Hell, GPT-4 can't make sense of my own projects.

    Can confirm! As someone from the Mediterranean, I can also recommend "Lavandula stoechas". Also known as Spanish Lavender. The honey from these is so good! (Edit: Non native plants should be avoided!)

    Their lengthy apology is.... I don't know how to describe it. It reminds me of relationship I had, in a bad way. The part where they go on to say "We messed up" cracked me up. You don't "mess up" when you are f

    They'll only start noticing when it's too late. For now, I assume, the bling is still flowing enough to be as addictive to them as the SEO spam is for most.

    Fair enough, I was just arguing even Mac users might not have the cash or the patience to commit into another machine. We've seen the same with Nvidia's GPUs going from the 10 to 20 series. If people don't perceive higher gai

    Yes, I should've been more specific. Mobile GPUs often employed in ARM architectures often use a technique called "Tile-Based Deferred Rendering" (TBDR). This involves not just splitting the frame into tiles but also delaying
