When a new game is released I usually check if it’s steam deck compatible, if it isn’t for no specific reason (like, a 2d platformer, I’m not going to expect a high fidelity 3d game to work) I’m way less inclined to buy it. The market is there and really should be picked up.
I don’t directly have a game recommendation, but make sure to launch the games once before your flight to get the dependencies installed too :) I forgot that last flight and couldn’t play half of the games I planned to because of it…
Not a scientist, but my first assumption would be that everything on earth, but also earth itself will double in size, knock ourself around our nice orbit around the sun and kill everyone either flashly or coldly.
Ignoring that problem, or applying the effect to the entire universe, probably not much would happen.
Missing the joke here? We run a 3090 and a 3900x just fine on ArchLinux.
My mind directly went to Laserdisc before I realized you were talking about the generic category 😅.
cd/dvd/blueray doesn’t become bad that fast, properly stored they can easely live to 50+ years (except the writeable variant). they are physically etched which helps with longevity.
VHS or other types of magnetic storage is more of a chore, they often don’t survive the passing of time.
Full 32 bit on 64 bit Unix support is a big thing in my opinion, even though most people won’t notice it (as an “extra” this also will allow running 32bit games on osx games and proper wine support on arm64 devices like your phone).
Also the additions to directshow will get more (older) games working properly.
From what I read this was some great work in the foundation of wine and hopefully accelerate their work even more.
Also the reliable income makes them more credit worthy, allowing greater loans from banks and making it possible to grow more.
Tbh it only sucks for the customers
The biggest feature of Wayland for me is mixed refreshrate monitors works OOB. On X this is a pain to get even remotely working and it’s impossible if your monitors aren’t dividable (120/60 works, 144/60 stutters).
This is from my experience something that is starting to be a way more common issue (high refreshrate laptops with 60 external monitors at businesses or high refreshrate monitor for gaming and a smaller secondary monitor for info lookup/discord).
other than that, Xorg does win the “more stable” prize for me, but if I wanted stability, I should’ve become a carpenter.
It’s quite a bad UX, but generally error 2 from make means the called program resulted into an error.
Usually this is accompanied with another error somewhere up the log. Multiple cores can make this a challenge to scan the log for however, so maybe try compiling without the -j argument, that should get the actual error closer to the end.
From my experience, it’s usually an outdated config for the kernel (like using a config for 5.1 while compiling 6.7) or a missing dependency. However the real error will be somewhere among the logs, who knows, maybe it’s a missing processor instruction (it’s really bad UX).
sounds to me like a timing issue. By using the proton log you might slow down to the point the timing issue doesn’t give you problems anymore. Try disabling vsync and enabling a fps limit (warframe has both settings itself).
Another possible cause could be filesystem going to a powersaving mode during normal gameplay and by writing logs you keep the disk in high performance.
yes, those two “autofixes” are “fixed” now. (it’s a opt-in setting)
Python is soon to be integrated into excel, I might not be a python fan but if it’s gonna replace vba I’m all for it.
I use a single gpu that I detach from my host and reattach in a vm when I start the vm (and vice versa). I don’t think windows will enjoy a sudden lack of gpu.
Like a lot of people already mentioned, it’s because of hardware driver’s mostly. But let’s not forget Microsoft has this figured out mostly already, since pretty much all drivers that have a version for Vista 64bit (2006) works on Windows 11.
Android is catching up a bit though, they split the update process and you now receive security updates almost directly from google since Android 10.
I use Trilium, it just scratched the need I had which obsidian and logseq couldn’t somehow.
I love all the ideas you have! Explaining how computers work, on a basic technical level, is something everyone should know nowadays.
I would suggest to focus the programming on something small, fun and instantly rewarding. Something like Snake in Pygame is not overly complex and you can take it step by step, so that every student will have something to show at the end, with varying levels of complexity. I would advise against using templates for projects, a lot of courses do but in my opinion it makes it harder for the student to replicate the work on its own later on.
In terms of networking, setting up a small test network with a WEP access point, a WPS access point and a WPA2 access point and letting the students (in groups, probably) try to figure out how to access/crack the passwords for them. (WEP and WPS should be easy, but WPA2 would require the deauthing exploit, which is a tad more complex).
Also the idea of cheap usb drives, which they can put on a live distro (or make it come with one) is a great way to start the lesson. This way they can have a setup that’s detached from the usual limitations school pc’s give. (if that’s still a thing).
Do make sure to teach them the ethics around hacking, cracking and downloading. From what I remember, Germany used to be decently lax on all three, but started to crack down on it in the past 10 years. Teaching responsibility and what the consequences are is very important.
