I'm surprised I haven't heard much about Collabora partnering with Valve before now. From reading their articles about it, it sounds like they're largely responsible for the Deck's update framework and for pressure-vessel which is designed to provide a standard linux container for games to run inside of (think of it like a flatpak but just for steam games).
This is a repost of https://sopuli.xyz/post/12466602, so I'm going to remove it. I hope you'll join the discussion there though!
Why have a max number of kids at all? From what I hear, China desperately needs more kids.
Yeah, I was looking forward to ZRAM. I know it doesn't usually help performance (I think Cryobyte tries it on all of his game optimization videos and it never makes enough of a difference), but I figure it will still help with running out of memory.
Some good changes in there. I barely noticed the mura issues outside of a few specific games, but I'm looking forward to seeing how much that's improved. HDMI-CEC features sound great, I'm curious if that will work with all docks or just the official one.
Edit: if you get double inputs from BT controllers, disable the HDMI-CEC features to fix. One of those CEC features is to let your TV remote control your deck, but it seems to cause double inputs for some people.
I know people are waiting to see if these will have square dead zones, but other than that I don't know if they're still doing that or not.
Valve's big advantage here is the same as it was with the steam deck: they can sell at a loss and make it back on software sales.
A lot of the appeal of consoles is a polished experience and that they're generally less expensive up front compared to a comparable power gaming PC. Many consoles are sold at a loss to hit that price point. Valve could actually make cheap gaming PCs that can compete in price and offer a smooth user experience.
Shadows of Doubt is an incredible game, and I highly recommend it.
The snipers missing their shots is a pretty funny problem honestly, sounds more like it's an issue with how they identify that they have a clear shot rather than an actual accuracy issue.
Also, part of how the game simulation works is that when one of the simulated people decides to commit murder, they have to acquire a weapon to do so. So if someone decides to kill as a sniper, they will either already need the gun/ammo for it, or they will seek out a black market dealer to buy from. However apparently once they've bought ammo, that ammo becomes unlimited, leading to the huge ammo piles when they can't actually get a clear shot on their target.
The 1.0 update added official gamepad support.
Introducing gamepad support for PC, offering a new hands-on, action-packed V Rising experience. This includes a reimagined HUD user interface crafted specifically for gamepad enthusiasts, ensuring a seamless and immersive gameplay journey.
From the 1.0 patch notes.
They've been working since the API price change, so nearly a year now.
On android, I would recommend using Stealth or Geddit to browse reddit. Stealth has a mode where it scrapes old.reddit.com (and bypasses the API), and Geddit uses the RSS feed to pull content instead of API.
Downside is neither app will let you interact, but I don't have any desire to generate content for reddit anyways.
I think Sony just delisted Ghost of Tsushima from all countries where PSN isn't available, even though it's primarily a single player game that won't require PSN.
So Sony is still on their bullshit, even though they conceded over Helldivers.
