I’m up to date enough that I know that Nvidia drivers didn’t support a game mode feature until a few weeks ago. Also, those who don’t learn from history are bound to repeat past mistakes.

AMD GPUs have completely different drivers under Linux than Windows. What’s a card bug anyway?

There’s a reason you are talking in past tense.

Yes, the reason being that I no longer use Nvidia hardware under Linux myself, so I’m not actively looking for the very latest news. Nvidia and SteamOS game mode is a very recent development, literally within the last two weeks.

So? Valve didn’t remove Mesa drivers from SteamOS. Intel is supported by Mesa.

For a long time, easily a decade now, Radeon drivers work better under Linux than Windows: https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/2013/09/26/dolphin-emulator-and-opengl-drivers-hall-fameshame/

Nvidia fans kept insisting that “Nvidia works perfectly for me” even when Wayland was entirely unsupported and using highly insecure X11 was really not a bad thing at all.

More recently game mode didn’t work on Nvidia because their drivers again lacked features.

Just because you don’t use a feature not supported by your drivers, doesn’t mean that it’s not true. By the very nature how Nvidia develop their drivers, they will lag behind Mesa “standards”.

Nvidia GPUs will never fully catch up until Nvidia themselves switch their entire driver model to be open source and upstream developed within Mesa.

3rd party batteries exists for reasonable prices.

Hard to blame AI data enter demands for this…

Brave is the money generator of a far right hate group. Fuck Brendan Eich, fuck their ad replacement scam, fuck everything Brave.

Pretty sure I’ve read months ago that the maintainers said they’ll try to support it as long as possible but at the moment v2 support is removed from the source code, they’ll won’t have the resources to add it back again.

I curse Canonical whenever I have to use Ubuntu. #equality

I don’t know how similar they are but the flying pig on the cover was definitely not in DKC.

Me saying “you have to set it up”, followed by your reply “comes with support out of the box”, didn’t really make sense.

You have to map the inputs, not write a gamepad driver to actually support the hardware. Unity supports gamepads out of the box. That’s a fact.

Yeah it does, but you still have to set it up. It doesnt just work magically.

I didn’t say anything about magic, just that it should be less work than making this graphic.

Yeah, this isn’t news and the studio owners who can cash big checks to sell don’t care.

The remake is written in Unity. It comes with gamepad support out of the box.

Yeah, which makes an updated release with actual gamepad controls unlikely. I honestly don’t get why there is no gamepad support. It’s a Unity game. Adding support for gamepads is most likely less work than making this graphic the developer added to the archive:

Microsoft approving of the practice

Says enough.

So they release a dedicated server to self host?
