This is old news but I do often think about the flaw in Tim Sweeney's strategy to try and bully apple and Microsoft into making their platforms work his way.

Honestly Epic should have got in the Linux bandwagon years ago so they could provide their own hardware.

How unremarkable

It's funny to me that we are not looking at the market beyond Sony Microsoft Nintendo.

Retro gaming handhelds for emulation are on the rise and large swaths of the market are gravitating to them. There is growth in gaming but it's actually a growth in piracy. No one likes the new stuff.

I mean a few of us are still ... Android, Chromecast (Android TV), Google One, Google Suite, Google Mesh, Nest (the few products that remain).

Google is collapsing because we are not the customer they serve (anymore). We are the product.

They have spoiled all the good will their brand has which means they are vulnerable to competition.

Im pretty sure this method utilizes RDP. I'm thinking about getting an Intel ARC380 GPU for PCI-E pass through to a windows VM and doing the same thing. I've tested this with an Nvidia Tesla k80 (though it's not a very practical card to have on a desktop). You should be able to get enhanced performance out of the VM if you enforce video encoding on GPU via group policy.

The only downsides are :

1. passing certain peripherals through RDP fails on Linux from my experience (for example, USB DAC, Xbox 360 USB controller). Your mileage may vary.
2. absolute mouse position doesn't work over RDP so don't try this with any games that need a mouse for camera control (fps) it simply won't work. If you want to game, lookingglass would probably be better for that but I haven't tested that yet.

Steam users are the base everyone desires to get to but no one wants to pay the toll to Valve for building the platform gamers want.

No one can undo years of economic turbulence in three years. Everyone feels like they're being gaslit because they are. The patient will bleed out before you finish applying the first bandaid.

There is something about the Palm Pre or Jolla Sailfish OS that was so endearing back then. Devices that support it just don't exist.

Simultaneously were in the age of retro revivals with emulation being at its peak thanks to the open source software community and the absolute pile of handheld form factor consoles available in the market.

Every bad launch has damaged the industry as a whole. The reputation for PC gaming has been diminished by a thousand cuts. No one expects a game to be good on launch. Everyone has been burned at least once by this.

You didn't EMPTY THE GREASE TRAAAaaaAAYY!

My vote is universal Blue and its spins like Bluefin or Bazzite

I think it's hilarious with the market for Linux handhelds this hot that these companies are still like "ew no thanks"

Honestly, this article shouldn't be called how to. I'm trying to make heads or tails of this documentation but I would love to see more. I just want to recompile Mystical Ninja starring Goemon as it's my favorite N64 game from my childhood.

Can you tell if an AI is being trained on these Lemmy instances? How would you detect it and stop it?

💯

Large language models are going to replace search. Naturally concise recommendations are easier for humans to interact with than a swath of web pages. The problem that you get here is this is going to disincentive the creation of new web content outside of the walled gardens we already have. The walls are just going to get higher.

💯 exactly where I learned about it too.

Yeah they don't even need you to on TV and recant your crimes against the state. They can just disappear you and train an AI to become a mouthpiece for the state. Wild.
