There is also a one man wonder effort to improve the sound work of simulated engines by “simply” simulating the flow of air www.youtube.com/watch?v=J11c8mMN1PA

exactly. I’m referring to playing protected content and hardware video decoding.

not the same DRM
- Comment on So I got hit with Microsoft's Windows 11 nag screen... 2 weeks ago:
Depends on the gpu driver, the distro, and how many hoops you feel like jumping through to enable support.
There shouldn’t be any hoops. This should all be native by now.

Parsec is like Moonlight / Sunshine in that it video streams your desktop for remote access. It is very low latency and lets you even game remotely. I’ve used it to remotely video edit and also test things, mainly to control my beefy desktop from my laptop in a remote location. The difference between Moonlight and Parsec is, Parsec’s 1000x less painful to setup, especially when connecting from across the internet.

The client works fine, but you can’t host a linux system using Parsec.

My largest showstoppers with Linux is the lack of DRM support, the lack of “just works” installs, and … this one little thing …
I would use Linux more if either Virtual Desktop or Steam Link worked in Linux. As it stands, neither work, and current implementations of VR in Linux are still alpha / experimental beyond Index / StramVR direct tethering, not an option for someone that has a cheap standalone headset.

TLDR: The most successful SDXL finetune creator tries to get a commercial license to use SD3 and SAI basically shrugged and said “na” after weeks of ghosting.
- Comment on Perfect Dark - Gameplay Reveal - Xbox Games Showcase 2024 2 weeks ago:
It’s … something new. The original game used a game engine evolved from Goldeneye (N64), so while it did a lot of cool things back then, it was very limited in what it could do.
It’s interesting to see the Mirror’s Edge parkour system being implemented. It brings a fresh take on the typical gun and run fps formula.

- Comment on Stellaris gets a DLC about AI that features AI-created voices, director insists it's 'ethical' and 'we're pretty good at exploring dystopian sci-fi and don't want to end up there ourselves' 1 month ago:
While everyone here is screeching about jerbs, I would like to point out that using AI voices to voice an AI is an artistic genius in itself.

Pegatron, and that was the OEM motherboard branch of ASUS, which the likes of HP used for a long while. Also ASRock, which is a split off from Pega.

Slightly bigger problem is that those speeds will also rip the atmodphere a new hole, which means not just vaporised carpet and riders, but the area around them as well as the kinetic and thermal energy from phasing through the air at 6 figure speeds is imposed on the surrounding area.
- Comment on Take-Two Interactive shuts down the Studios behind Kerbal Space Program and Rollerdrome 1 month ago:
They released the game early access, so everyone was expecting a perfect game from the start because of how much development went into 1. Honestly, while 2 had issues, the game engine is much better than 1, they just needed to bake it more, like several years more, before releasing it hot off the heels of 1.

- Comment on What 11in laptop do you suggest? 2 months ago:
Dell Latitude 5310. Cheap on ebay, 10th-gen Intel i5, often comes with 16GB RAM and has the capability to go to 32GB RAM, can upgrade the ssd, wifi, and RAM, and it has a 60Whr battery. It will literally go all day on battery. You may have to replace the battery due to age, but otherwise for a 13.3" laptop it is very good and still performs. It also supports Windows 11, but I suppose you will Linux it. It’ll do it either way.
