Semperverus

Im having what seems like the exact same problem with Satisfactory and other idler games. I’ll come back and it seems like nothing happened when I left.

The other weird one is guild wars 2. If I lock my screen long enough, ill come back and itll render every frame I didnt see for that time at like 20x speed. Its super bizarre.

Maybe we can just do project sundial now and call it good (thanka Kurtzgesagt for letting us know it exists right before election day lmao)

If it had been any other country in the world, you might have seen an actual response. North Korea is not to be taken seriously until they have proven otherwise, and with an impoverished, famished population that is locked further in the past than Russia, I doubt we will see much in the way of meaningful action from them.

I’m not christian and I assumed the experiment didn’t allow for evolution as it was not specified in its parameters. I assumed that the monkeys were a horrible (and very wrong) analogy for random number generators, were immortal, and had no time for making offspring as they were all trained and consumed with typewriting, or physically separated from one another.

The monkeys would produce wildly more limited results than a random number generator mind you, and they are essentially frozen in evolutionary time, so they are not going to be writing shakespear.

The problem here is the implied entropic outcomes of each system.

If the monkeys were replaced with true-random number generators, then you’d eventually get shakespear. But they aren’t RNG engines, and they aren’t quantumly random.

Instead, the monkeys have a large-ish but very finite number of logical branches that they can take in their decision-making processes, with slight variations within a fixed genetic scope. They will slam away at the typewriters in a very specific monkey kind of way.

At the end of the thought experiment, you will end up with an infinite amount of monkey-gibberish and a slightly smaller infinite amount of soiled or destroyed typewriters.

Summarizing documents, writing documents you don’t want to (within reason), and… whatever the hell Neuro-sama is doing on Vedal’s channel, are like the only ones i’ve found so far that kind of work. And I guess image generation.

That definitely is true, we do tolerate a lot of rough edges out of ethics and principals.

Interestingly, the Linux foundation had to remove several Russian maintainers recently because of the sanctions.

I have not looked into the details on the matter, but from what I gleaned it seems like they did not want to (don’t punish the individual for the sins of their government), but were made to. Linus Torvalds apparently made a statement on the matter that I still need to go read.

I could be very very wrong on this and am open to being educated.

A lot of people grew up in a time where the desire for anonymity on the internet was praised and respected, reading usernames unless you had a specific reason to do so was considered strange.

I know I at the very least have to force myself to look at them if it’s something that needs doing, as I am conditioned specifically to ignore them.

My post you are replying to is absolutely aggressive and was 100% intended to be at the time. I am calmer now though.

The original post was not written with any aggression in mind. Could you expand on how it sounded that way? I didn’t feel any aggression until they started namecalling and making unfactual claims.

I actually hand-typed it, thank you very much.

But, point taken.

And, i could have handled my response better to the namecalling. I should not have let them pull aggro like that.

I listed a bunch of things that have been said by the community in the past, and pointed out that they made a statement that fell into that larger bucket.

So, i would be willing to concede that I lumped them in with the greater whole. But: I did not start with the aggressive namecalling.

Read the first post again and tell me how what i just said is a backpedal.

I accused the community as a whole of goalpost moving.

But you’re right, i did get the username wrong.

With that being said, I’m not here as community support. Im not offering you or anyone support. I am calling out the inaccuracies and the slander.

I think that talking about how you want to switch but then claim the thing you want to switch to sucks because of totally fabricated reasons is cringe.

I don’t think everyone should switch, but i do think that people walking around spouting out bullshit that they clearly have no idea about should be called out and shut down.

So the projector thing isnt from DXVK, but rather from the Windows Media Foundation library. Basically, there are a bunch of video codecs that are completely illegal to reimplement locally because of the patents on them.

The good news is that Valve is working on a major workaround, and just pushed it out to Proton Experimental recently. They’ve had okay-to-good support for video codecs up until recently (they pushed out some fixes for it right around after you had that problem), and now it should be moving towards great-to-perfect.

Honestly it sounds like you suck more than linux does, because I have never had any of those problems. My 4k monitors have all worked perfectly, and with wayland i have a successful mixed resolution/scaling/refresh rate setup.

If anyone is being a bitch, its you. You sound salty as fuck. I kind of hope you don’t switch so the linux community doesnt have to put up with your awful attitude.

Oh, and no shit you need Proton. Thats not even worth discussing.

The goalposts have moved to hopefully their final position

• 99% of my games don’t work! I’m not switching!

• About half of my games don’t work, I’m not swiching!

• 20% of my games don’t work but the ones that do are all perfect, I’m not switching!

• 10% of my games don’t work and Valve is pushing for functioning anticheat with EasyAntiCheat and BattleEye, i’m not switching!

• You are here → 0.1% of my games don’t work because of holdout companies being assholes and going out of their way to specifically block Linux despite the massive success of the Steam Deck, I’m not switching!

At some point you have to ask yourself if it’s the companies thats holding you back or if it’s really actually you who are holding yourself back. Switching is gonna always require some kind of sacrifice or another, and currently that sacrifice has never been this minimal.

Either that, or you are just the kind of person who enjoys being a contrarian and has no interest in actually contributing anything meaningful.
