C++ is at least backwards compatible (for 99% of code anyway, yes I know about some features being removed, but that's an exception and not the rule).

A friend of mine uses Tablacus Explorer (with a Webview2 extension)

Yes but, in practice some of these things don't matter much at all. At that point you're looking at the performance stack a bit too deeply.

Look at the bigger picture. For example - an RTX 4090 can perform about as well on PCIe 3.0 as it does on 4.0 in most tasks that you'd likely use it for.

You don't have to care about some of these things as much as you used to before. Sometimes you can get too deep into hunting the best version of your system before you realize that it really doesn't make that much of a difference.

Unrelated but this is totally possible on a PS4....

...after jailbreaking it and booting into Linux.

Which makes me even more mad at Sony removing OtherOS, but oh well.

To top it off, what matters at the end of the day js this - people generally don't care about graphics anymore!

Even if you end up with graphics that are worse than a console, you still have:

  • an option to upgrade later
  • options to configure graphics (generally games actually optimize themselves pretty well nowadays)
  • an open platform to do things the way you want

PS5 Pro makes absolutely no sense to me.

It's just their ego showing through.

It basically now comes down to the current devs depending on new Rust devs for anything that interacts with Rust code.

They could just work together with Rust devs to solve any issues (API for example).

But their ego doesn't allow for it. They want to do everything by themselves because that's how it always was (up until now).

Sure, you could say it's more efficient to work on things alone for some people, and I'd agree here, but realistically that's not going to matter because the most interactivity that exists (at the moment) between Rust and C in Linux is... the API. Something that they touch up on once in a while. Once it's solid enough, they don't have to touch it anymore at all.

This is a completely new challenge that the Linux devs are facing now after a new language has been introduced. It was tried before, but now it's been approved. The only person they should be mad at is Linus, not the Rust devs.

Yeah enabling remote debugging because the dev thought it made it easier is a pretty big oof.

But this is just strike one. It's a one man show, after all, so cutting them some slack is warranted when it comes to this specific topic.

Nevertheless, your concerns aren't unfounded. This project needs more contributors to be able to keep up. (Thorium is basically in the same boat)

Ridge Racer

Gran Turismo

GTA Liberty City Stories

GTA Vice City Stories

God of War Ghost of Sparta

Maybe Tekken 5 DR if you can stand playing it on a portable device.

Loco Roco

And if you're into Yugioh - Tag Force are some of the best games in the series.

That's my list OTOH.

I got banned from "World News @ lemmy.ml"

Gee, what else is new?

It's specifically about the efficiency of the usage. If it's not used effectively, then it really is a waste.

And we all know how efficient the Web is nowadays...
