I wouldn't say they're "crawling back to Steam", not like they've ever left. This is clearly for their new Handheld/Big Screen UI. They're seeing the success of Steam Deck and Steam OS and are trying to build a competitive experience on Windows.

Cool. Then it's something I'll consider but I'll definitely wait to see the Deckard first.

"Without Apple" means I no longer need to scan my face using an iPhone to order it?

Aside from being a military dictatorship in a civil war, I know that it has some very beautiful buddhist temples.

40 hours but actually less than that when you exclude activities like getting coffee or answering questions on AskLemmy. Software development.

Michael MJD: Retro tech youtuber with a very calming voice and video style. Often installs operating systems on unusual devices.

Techmoan: Tech youtuber focused on old audio equipment.

Ashens: British Youtuber, who has been reviewing mostly poundshop tat and occasionally other random items in front of a brown sofa since 2006.

Geowizard: British Youtuber who does online Geography quizzes like Geoguessr and sometimes goes on adventures. The former part is probably more relevant to your question, though even his adventures have a nice, calm narration and music (that he wrote himself).

The Trek Planner: Finds interesting spots on Google Earth and hikes there, usually in the deserts of the Western US. Videos are usually more focused on the journey than the destination, so there will always be lots of nice views of nature. Honorable mention also to Desert Drifter, who did similar videos but unfortunately passed away recently.

Assuming the daughter is an adult: I'd talk to her about it but otherwise not get involved. It's up to her to choose her relationships. There are also people who aren't together anymore even though they're still married, or are in an open relationship, so it's not something to automatically condemn.

I am specifically referring to RTX technology and not ray tracing in general.

There is nothing specifically "RTX" about the reflections in GTAVE.

The RTX reflections in the GTA:V:E are very satisfying I love all this.

It's called Raytracing. RTX is just a marketing term Nvidia uses for their GPUs, GTAVE has nothing to do with it.

Not when it's about sitewide policies. (Like reddit banning "Luigi" etc)

Yeah, as much as I'd love to see some of the national parks, I'll never travel there unless their entry procedures and government change fundamentally. Plenty of other countries to visit.

 

I feel like the Linux Handhelds made by GPH in the 2000s are a nowadays almost forgotten piece of history, even though they were in some ways the predecessor to today's Steam Deck. So I wanted to create a bit of an appreciation post for this chapter in Linux Gaming history. Did any of you use a GP2X back in the day as well? For me, it wasn't just my introduction to Linux gaming, but also game development, as I programmed my first games for it using GLBasic. It was a fantastic machine for emulation as well, got introduced to many old games from the 80s and 90s through it.

 

I'm currently waiting for all the components for my PC upgrade to arrive. Got the motherboard today and immediately upon opening, I noticed that the CMOS battery was not in its slot but just kind of next to it loose on top of the board. The slot seems fine, it seems to fit securely in there. No scratches on the board either. But now I'm a bit worried - could the battery have shorted something on the motherboard? It holds a charge after all. What do you think - should I return it for a new one untested or are the chances of the battery harming anything so miniscule that I should just go for it and use it in my build?

 

Für mich 90% Übereinstimmung mit Volt

 
 

That would explain why I didn't have any problems with Youtube and uBlock Origin.

 

Hi everyone! I've noticed for a while now that I can't reply to comments made by kbin accounts using my account here. Not even talking about kbin threads, but for example if I reply to any kbin-made comment over on feddit.de, once I click submit it just keeps spinning without ever posting the reply. I often see users from other lemmy instances replying to them though, so it doesn't seem like a general lemmy problem. Does everyone else here have this problem as well?
