each round one second long, so on your turn you only have time to either move or act or do nothing. This does mean each turn feels really fast
I disagree. Apart from choice-paralysis (do I do nothing again or finally go now?), this approach can either be slow or fast.
If you slap into each action a bunch of modifiers, temporary modifiers, dice counting (large pools), reaction roll, detraction, comparison, etc that will in the end make that one game-second take ages in play time.
Oh, I haven’t tried that and AFAIK I’m not even using it. I’ll check, thanks
It’s the experimental one that might be translated to my locale as " limit CPU use"?
Huh. So in this case, the file actually is respected. Refreshing
I don’t know what kind of reel do you reap but coming to fedi to advertise discord is rich
This is either a story of a Maria going by as Mina or someone going by as “that bloodthirsty bitch” at work and I really can’t tell which it is
Play it with the “In the Hall of the Mountain King” in the background
Might still run fine, though
For anyone wondering, like I was: link is legit. No PII/login needed
And the crazy thing is, buying the rights might actually be a not so bad idea from marketing POV
How did the facility plan got accepted by the local administration?
I haven’t been paying attention to GPU market lately, are you actually asking about 9060?
In such case, it seems this is the review you might be looking for
Then it’s not even a year old. The things that see the most movements performance wise are focused on AMD and NVidia. I’m not convinced there will be a huge difference between what he measured then and what you would measure today. If you are comparing that card with a newer one, the latter will probably get better performance. If the difference in performance is worth the difference in price, only you can decide
There is https://www.phoronix.com/review/intel-battlemage-linux-may2025/2 but that is not cross-referenced to the other one
My point is, the last time Phoronix did a review on b580, 9600 was not even on the graph yet. When it comes to gaming hardware on Linux, I don’t know of any better place than Phoronix. He does the tests really using a Linux box, really running games (or computing) and sometimes even runs tests again when there is some big release of Mesa etc.
But when trying to decide which generation to buy you most probably have to glue together how the thing you are eyeing compares to the other thing, by comparing both to another one that is present in both comparisons
now one BNPL provider has announced a deal with a gaming company to allow people to finance in-game purchases.
Great, another data leech for marketing machine
offers interest-free biweekly payment plans
Uh-huh. I wonder, what do they monetize on, if the debt is interest-free. Surely this is only to grow user base. No basket analysis at all…
They experiment and learn
Not everyone. Some just don’t connect the dots and will rather call you and wait for you to come than experiment
How possible is that they will be needing some bleeding edge update of WINE or kernel?
If you think you can expect that they won’t need to do bleeding edge updates, pick something that is easy to use for you and just choose a WM that will be easy for them
My grandma and mom use Manjaro with XFCE. Or rather they use XFCE, I use Manjaro on their PCs ;D. They don’t need to update to, for example, NTSync enabled version ASAP, so it’s fine with me just doing an update during some holidays for grandma and over the phone for mom.
We used to try Mint for their boxes. I was banging my head against it as always with Debian based distros and the effect was that for them the downtimes were longer. Despite our mutual hopes, mom never really got self-sufficient with managing the OS. Even with GUI based package manager. So I just migrated them to Manjaro and now we are all happier. For me the updating is less painful and is faster, for them it just works
But if you would need to educate such user on how to use some package manager to update something, then maybe there might be some differences between GUI package managers that might help you
although
for someone who doesn’t know how to do much more than check their email and log in to Steam
I think it will be you doing the updating in the end
Take a look at Phoronix https://www.phoronix.com/review/intel-arc-b580-graphics-linux/4
I think you are looking at two cards of very different capabilities
EDIT: unless you mean 9060

Thanks, but I already have that. It did make things better but I was still getting freezes so far
