Sounds like maybe it's building a shader cache on the first time through.

You mean specifically the Linux client? I've never used it before. Indeed I don't think I've ever tried to run a game under Linux.

Valve just announced that the Linux Steam client now supports running Windows games, albeit with a pretty small whitelist to start. Apparently Valve has been funding WINE and DXVK for some time. From the announcement: Windows games with no Linux version currently available can now be installed...

This is sort of interesting, I didn't realize most (sounds like almost all) OEMs stick with the default 15 steps.

I have no solution but I share your irritation. I listen to podcasts when I walk and they're always too loud or too quiet. I actually think the granularity might be okay if they would just make the scale logarithmic instead of linear.

Don't hug the internet, you don't know where it's been.

Apparently the infected installer was signed.

It's a weird example because something like that could be actionable depending on what types of claims were made, e.g: https://www.law360.com/articles/888250/mcdonald-s-extra-value-meals-no-deal-class-claims Obviously I'm not saying the situations are perfectly analogous or whether this...

Racing games use a lot of really big textures. 700 cars all with detailed cockpits, undercarriage, and then maybe 20-30 liveries each. Circuits are multi-textured and probably reuse a fair bit of assets from one to the next but it's still quite a large area.

I think you should try playing a 60 Hz video if you haven't already, then you would at least know if it's a sync problem with kodi and the display.

I think it's because AMD wants the higher priced CPUs to consistently win benchmarks (among their own CPUs), which wouldn't be the case with same or higher clocked 4 cores.

Seven studios seems an awful lot. By comparison Dice has 2, Blizzard 9, iD 2, and Epic 6. I tried to think of more besides Epic that weren't wholly owned or backed by a publisher but drew a blank.

Are you at stock memory clock? It seems to be--as the article says--mainly an issue with overclocking. I posted about it on this board a while ago because I was confused as to why I was seeing a checkerboard at the so-called "safe starting memory overclock". But yeah, not a big deal really...

Aha! I knew something was up!

It's Citizencon man! He's probably been called back to the mothership, so to speak.
