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?
Isn’t startrek.website the tesseract guy’s own private instance?
His own: Not that I’m aware of but I could be wrong. Private: No, there are a couple of thousand registered users.
ah today’s young ones…
Thanks.
the question is: why do two, not even three, apps consume all of the 4gb?
Mozilla had to fire a big part of their browser engineering team to raise the salary of their CEO. That’s how FF is less optimized.
I would definitely buy a Jolla Phone or it would work in the US.
It should work there. The problem for you would be no direct shipping to the US.
I remember even my Win98 machine had to have 16GB of RAM or couldn’t get anything done.
Try to get a modern web browser working on your Win98 machine. The problem is modern web browsers eating RAM, not Android.
But seriously, I’ve got an old laptop still in use and that’s getting along fine on 4 GB. Firefox, KDE, Libre Office, background tasks, some light gaming, no problem.
Let me guess: That old laptop has a swap file or partition?
If you dislike Android so much, get https://commerce.jolla.com/products/jolla-phone-october-2026 Should pair well with your new >1000 Euro Steam Machine.
using Android doesn’t have to mean it’s smart to go into intentional denial of a long list of shit that sucks, just to be a fanboy.
No OS can do magic and turn 4GB RAM into a suitable amount for memory hungry modern web browsers.
Although I am mildly infuriated that you hate Android
OP uses 4GB RAM but blames the OS.
I disable power management on the apps I use often and never run into the issue.
Power management does nothing when RAM is as constrained as 4GB
Android also doesn’t use swap
Years ago a friend of mine actually enabled swap on a MicroSD. It worked, no idea for how long, though. That type of memory isn’t reliable enough to handle this.
But that said: I would love to replace it all with a true Linux phone.
4GB RAM, a modern web browser, and no swap file/partition. That doesn’t work well anywhere. Not Android, not GNU/Linux, not Windows, not macOS.
I don’t know how similar they are but the flying pig on the cover was definitely not in DKC.
