LOL, it is the other way around: do you have sources that selling software is not legally entitled to technical support? And proton/wine is unreliable in time (I know) as compat can be broken at the first unfortunable patch proton side
542.
by sylware 11mo ago
Ok, if you don't want to understand that technical support is legally required in tons of countries if you sell something, I cannot tell you much more.

one fixed and a bazillion to go. (does not include machine code compiler generated "backdoors"/security flaws)

by sylware 11mo ago
When you sell a product, technical support must be provided as a legal requirement in tons of countries. Not the case with proton(wine) titles on elf/linux, namely illegal. Easy enough to understand this time?
545.
by sylware 11mo ago
Don't do drugs mate. But the right way to fix this, is valve hiring tens to hundreds of advanced system devs in order to QA (replay the games, 100%, at each patch proton side or game side) and technically support (omega-hell, because o

What are you talking about? There is no official and legally required technical support for proton, requirement in tons of countries around the world. The second there is a payment with real money, it is a scam. In other words: PROTON = 0 B

"Verified" does not mean they will technically (and legally) support the game until its "EOS", unfortunately. One unfortunate patch (past the "refund" time limit), valve proton side or game side, and compat is

Not win11. It has to be explicit with win11. That said, this shows the sabotage of dual boot by microsoft making it hell, this is proof, and thinking that all motherboard BIOSes will have properly tested secure boot configuration is a dream
553.
by sylware 11mo ago
win10 is not revelant anymore. What about win11? And for instance the game anti-cheats (more anti-open-source than anything else though...) which require TPM/secure boot?
554.
by sylware 1y ago
Distros will ignore UEFI secure boot. You have to test with win11 (in dual boot with your fav distro) and some software requiring UEFI secure boot (maybe its status is displayed somewhere in win11 settings).
555.
by sylware 1y ago
UEFI secure boot is not getting in the way? Namely is secure boot can be still enabled even though the system is dual booting? I know that some windows game anti-cheat will now deny some games to run if secure boot is not enabled. And last

by sylware 1y ago
And how you would install a dual boot with some mainstream elf/linux distro? Is dual boot still a thing with all the effort from microsoft to make that hell or impossible?

microsoft github has its agenda at breaking noscript/basic (x)html/classic browser support. Everything was fine before microsoft bought them, namely we had noscript/basic (x)html/classic browser support for all core func

I would have prefered a quickjs based js game engine because it is coded in plain and simple C. (unless node.js has finally a quickjs/mujs backend)

by sylware 1y ago
In the light of all that, there are still people unable to understand why computer languages with ultra-complex syntaxes are really an issue (c++, microsoft rust, etc...)
561.
by sylware 1y ago
I pointed out that some people seems to get good results at porting c++ to C using "AI"(LLM). And big mistakes require big fixing.

by sylware 1y ago
Open source clients? server-less modes?

Did you know? gogol search engine is now blocking noscript/basic (x)html browsers even for basic web search?

by sylware 1y ago
cproc/tcc/scc/etc are C compilers not c++. If you want to compile a recent c++ compiler (gcc/clang), you must have already a c++ compiler (one of the biggest mistake in open source software ever was to move gcc to c++, c

by sylware 1y ago
Microsoft rust is not that much worse than c++. That said, it seems some people get nice results at porting from c++ to C using "AI" (LLM?).

by sylware 1y ago
huh? Nope. x11 is here only for legacy support... and that valve client (which master binary is still a 32bits executable hardcoded on x11 and GL).
567.
by sylware 1y ago
If they could move away from c++ too.... like plain and simple C like the netsurf browser?

I wonder why. Marketing? ISO tax mandatory to access some specific markets? That said, they should be careful on what they will pay in order to get an ISO stamp. And what parts of RISC-V will be covered... because RVA may probably get signi

HTML <video> or <audio> element with "Streaming" URLs passed to the media player (or internally in the web browser for the big ones).

by sylware 1y ago
_Roughtly_ speaking, X11 is only there for old games and the steam client. It is even worse with the steam client since the main executable in still 32bits.
