  • Well, when you make a multithreaded application, usually there is one main thread, which controls everything else, timings and all.

    Now usually you make sure not to have any blocking function (large calculation or file R/W requiring HDD fetching) on the main thread. Maybe they made some mistakes in this regard in their previous games and did better this time.

    From what I see, it seems like they didn't use the graphics API (seems to be Vulkan) properly enough, for which I can't do anything, given my lack of exp with it. Perhaps a god time for me to delve into Vulkan.

  • Thanks

  • You don't need to upload it, just do ![annotation text here](link to gif)

  • I mean if you’re german you could try working for them lol

    That seems to be the main barrier, yeah.


    But I checked htop while running the game and it doesn't seem to be doing all single core stuff as you said. Unless it is that the bottlenecking thread is not even using the available core to the full extent.
    I checked it out with both linux and linux-zen kernels.

    Usually, when a program is loading on a single thread, you tend to see a single core go to 100% for a few seconds, which then jumps around as the OS switches the core provided to the thread. That was not happening here.
    Also, the new GPU is sometimes at ~60-70% while the FPS is dropping to 30. This part was weird.

  • Well, KDE Clipboard seems to make it easy enough for me for now, but perhaps I will set a compose key for it if required.

    My main problem tends to be forgetting to add it because I got too emersed in typing the comment.

    And it's kinda useless to add it after the fact, so most of the time, it works because I copy the license first.

    CC BY-NC-SA

  • Right. Because after you buy it, it is your drone made by DJI and not DJI's drone.

    Guess some of the laws still have their premises correct.

  • I just went "Shiit! Am I sitting on potential system breakage?" (because I don't remember doing any such intervention)
    But turns out it was just a conflicts with change.

    From what I know, pacman straight-up asks you what you want, in these cases. Sure, it's technically manual intervention, but for me, who scans over updated packages every-time, this is considered standard procedure.

    Manual intervention is when GRUB doesn't install properly using the suggested command and you have to learn where your distro places the boot image and configure stuff accordingly.

    Also, I don't have JDK so...

    CC BY-NC-SA

  • You ppl don't use auto archive/categorise/delete ?

  • As someone who uses a HPV Bike for commute, a bit of noise definitely makes it easier to get others to give way.

  • Wait, so all I had to do was disable my underclock and I would have gotten the same marginal perf gains that I got by upgrading both my CPU and GPU?

    Will Egosoft hire me if I offer to refactor their code into something multithread friendly?

  • What's the problem with some laughter.

    If there's nothing to laugh at, people usually pick a loner, harass them until they are angry/miserable and then laugh at them.


    I'd rather, they laugh at this, which might also throw a wrench in the works of companies trying to get data without sifting through it properly.

    Anti Commercial-AI license


    Wouldn't it be even more fun if the AI chatbot got trained on this and started spewing out Anti Commercial-AI license in their results?

  • Meaning, if you have it, you can do what you want other than (re)selling it?

    1. The license is for the content of the post. Here, I put a separator.
    2. Valve has regional pricing, making some games cost a tenth of the price in some regions. GoG does not, so you pay the US price.
    • e.g. I bought X4 for ~4x the price of Average AAA console games.
    • Though, in case of X4, it seems to have a similar price on Steam, most games tend to be cheaper with regional pricing.

    And now I forgot to put a license on this one.

  • Sounds like 4 dinosaurs

  • Yeah, I recently bought X4, which is so badly implemented (at least on Linux) that it gives the same FPS (in the 30s) on Low settings as it does on Ultra.

    I even went ahead and bought a new GPU just for that and hardly see a difference, even being suspicious of there being a miner in it.

    Fun game nonetheless.

  • I'm waiting for BG3 to make a Linux thingy. Until then, it''s on the "maybe" list.

    If it's not native on Linux, it needs to be exceptionally good for me to buy it, considering GoG doesn't have regional pricing.

  • Do you know one that runs great AND looks great

    If you make one, then I'll know one. ;)

  • I haven't tried UE5

    Also, they changed their licence midway, so a little unsure about it rn.
