Such a joke. Best engine gets an update to dominate even further.

Isack being 3 tenths behind Max is rather impressive. Few RBR drivers in the second seat manage this.

What if that was her wish when she was not in her right mind? Terminally I’ll people have the right to live in the moment instead of being tied to the death bed.

An international team of physicists has achieved a breakthrough in understanding something that has puzzled scientists for decades: the discrepancy between experimental measurements and theoretical predictions of magnetic properties of the muon, a heavier cousin of the electron.

The worst part was is that they WERE developing it for PC due to the existence of the leaked alpha

All console games are initially developed on Windows PC. Back in GameCube days Nintendo even forgot to delete the Windows version of Pikmin from the release image: https://tcrf.net/Pikmin_(GameCube)/Windows_Executable

they have confirmed that they won’t do that anymore.

Dude, it’s not a legally binding contract. All I wrote boils down to basically “wait and see”.

It’ll stay exclusive for a few years. And then they’ll look at the economics again and possibly reconsider their current stance.

Maybe read more carefully what I wrote. I’m aware what Sony said and I said that things can change a couple of years down the road.

Not coming to PC?

It’s not like these games ever had day 1 PC releases. I think Sony and Disney will have discussions about promoting the upcoming X-Men movie via a PC release but that’s a bunch of years in the future.

Now with merchable, cute animals and a literal companion cube named Frank?

Looks cool. Let’s see if it really stays as exclusive. I prefer keyboard and mouse.

Most non native games run okay under the emulation layers

That’s not the point. The point is commitment of Microsoft to its own platform and that’s lacking ever since the release of the first Surface RT over a decade ago.

Apple doesn’t just not port Apple Chess because it would run okay under emulation. Of course they ported everything. For years Microsoft didn’t even port VS Code despite the fact that even back then it was based on Chromium which already worked fine on ARM platforms.

Surface RT came out in 2012, VS Code in 2015, and the ARM port only in 2020! Madness! https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/visual-studio-code-c-extension-arm-and-arm64-support/

Because legislation related to Stop Killing Games has not yet passed.

Every single game except Microsoft Solitaire Collection of the Windows Store.

Other than that, the only ARM platforms Microsoft Gaming Studios support are Nintendo Switch, iPhone, and Android.

If only the world’s largest game publisher, owner of Activision Blizzard, Bethesda, Minecraft, and Xbox, would port their games to this Microsoft machine. Too bad this will never happen because Microsoft and that publisher, whose name escapes me at the moment, don’t cooperate.

You’d still be relying on Nvidia’s userspace blob for graphics. As you perhaps know, Nvidia drivers are always only one unimplemented feature away from functional parity with Mesa drivers that Radeons and Intel GPUs use.

Admittedly, not before there is Linux support.

It’s still Nvidia hardware. Fuck Nvidia.

I would assume those people will look at Microsoft’s track record of supporting ARM hardware, realize that the vast majority of Microsoft’s own software still does not run on ARM natively (14 years after Surface RT launched!), and buy a MacBook Pro instead.

I’m voluntarily paying for my LW account but the admins don’t know whose money transfer belongs to which account.

In the US it will be all rusty old death traps.

This description already applies to new Cybertrucks.

Couple things there are many computer users that don’t play games like for example me.

And in which credible statistic are those?

Enterprise Linux is not the same as a container

Of course not but you didn’t specifically say desktop-only Ubuntu/… installs and Ubuntu is still very popular in containers that never see any desktop. Ubuntu also ships Plasma, flagship DE or not.
