i found the stability is highly dependent on the in game settings. i have a full amd system, cpu+graphics. considering i had an amd card (latest gen) i would disable ray tracing and fsr and most of the time i couldn’t even get past the initial loading screen without crashing. found that setting fsr to balanced and enabling ray tracing to lowest settings would let me play for 4-5 hours before crashing. I’m on Linux so most likely still need to play around with the lighting options for better Vulcan support.
flatpak distribution is generally done by the developer as a common packaging method. if a distribution wants a native install it’s up to package maintainers of the distribution to support the application. although the package maintainers have to make sure they’re packaging the right versions of dependencies which becomes a problem known as dependency hell.
in your example of handbrake it’s true the main application is pretty small but that’s because it relies on libraries and is a wrapper for ffmpeg. even if you install through a package manager you still need to compare the total size of dependencies.
the disc space usage becomes a problem due to installing libraries both natively and in sandbox. however if you keep a relatively small system install and install applications through flatpak the disc usage will be pretty negligible. if disc space is really a concern then using something like btrfs with compression+dedup would probably solve most problems.
it’s great for applications that are notorious for requiring specific versions of libraries and can cause dependency hell. moves unnecessary system dependencies into a sandbox. for me this means i don’t have to enable multilib to install Steam and pull in 32 bit libraries on my root.
while it does take a lot of disc space it doesn’t duplicate dependencies in most cases. i would say you receive some good benefits at the cost of a bit more disc space, such as increased security, easy installs, explicit app permissions. it’s great for when you have to install a proprietary tool in that you gain control of what it’s allowed to access.
ichi the killer. couldn’t make it past the first few minutes
my biggest concern is that baldurs gate 3 was in early access for 3 years before it became what it is now. while it wasn’t too bad in EA and it helped development it wasn’t close to what it is today. if they use the same model and include early access it may disappoint a lot of players who don’t realize what early access means and cause them to abandon the game before release.
for me the only way i can describe aphantasia is in terms of how a computer works.
I have a visual encoder that can store images in my visual memory but lack a visual decoder to be able to display any image. like if you could only open a jpeg in notepad. that doesn’t mean the information is lost or can’t be interpreted, just that my cognitive brain deals directly with the binary format. i understand the attributes like depth or color but if asked to recall something i can only verbalize the attributes. this means i can verbalize visual concepts and memories, but can’t generate or visualize them inside my head.
the chess example i wouldn’t even consider thinking visually to see the moves ahead but create a list of possible actions. I’ve always struggled with chess as i don’t have the ability to store the depth of actions available.
Considering how riled up everyone seems to getting over what was said, I inclined to believe it was said specifically to get a rise out of their opposition.
their actions on Jan 6th, the Nazi marches with literal 3rd Reich chants and the political refusal to denounce them. refusing women health care causing an increase in mortality rates.
you can’t participate in fascism and say /s just kidding bro.
In other words; you’re being trolled, and they’re having a laugh.
they aren’t trolling, they’re laughing that they’re getting away with it and the system refuses to do anything about it. the cruelty and the power to enact that cruelty onto others is the joke to them.
i reported it as doxing, looks like they’re recording names and addresses. maybe those in the EU can raise gdpr concerns?
Microsoft lawyer Rakesh Kilaru wrote that Microsoft was already considering layoffs before the merger.
Corporate gaslighting at it’s finest. we planned to layoff ~1000 employees from the company we were acquiring before we agreed not to do that!
you seem to be blaming the workers for turning out flops but in general it’s the managements lack of planning and micromanagement that’s the general cause.
no one who’s a developer, artist, designer wants to add micro transactions, that comes from top down because it’s a revenue generator. they want to polish the games so they can be proud of the work, but are not given time.
executives are not the ones generally being let go and the ones that are will be cashing out from the acquisition. expect those IPs to get worse and have more enshittification because that’s what makes money and that’s all corpos care about.
you don’t get a larian studios from laying off talent, you get it from good management and giving your talent time to deliver.
i really hope you can clarify, are you saying genocide is justifiable to have cheap bananas?
volunteers on false promises will become victims. let Elon get it first if he really believes in it, just like the ocean gate CEO believed in his submarine.

Elon and the Twitter company are not anonymous? They’re using their position to actively bury opinions they dislike. by removing a blue check it means less people will see union organizing efforts and messaging.
The Nazi started deporting after they came into power and again they came into power and held their power by silencing their opposition. Stop being a Corpo fasist apologist.
before the Nazi party came to power, they would show up to rallys, protests and town squares to silence political opponents through intimidation and physical violence.
A lot of people would consider Twitter a modern day digital “Town square”. i would say it’s eerily similar, the main difference is that there’s no physical violence just the silence.
A lot of the investments by big companies were made in 2018-2019 with low near 0% interest. now a lot of those loans are coming due which will impact their total assets. they want workers in the office to keep Corp real estate in demand so their investments don’t tank. most likely will result in massive layoffs or bail outs as they will try to protect the shareholders for eternal growth.
basically no company wants the bad PR. If it had come out twitch would be known as the platform with pedos and parents wouldn’t let their kids use it resulting in the platform becoming obsolete.
