And the software ecosystem, much of which they have funded/developed. In 2015, there was no proton, no DXVK, no vkd3d, and most important, no Vulkan.

I’d guess it was an attempt to keep the title succinct, then not proofing it properly. In any case, always read the article before commenting as titles are frequently misleading (intentional or not).
I’ve seen it go down in some cases on VPNs, so it could be a matter of time (or they’ll find a solution again and the back and forth will just continue).
Youtube isn’t just a thing people use to waste time, but a source of educational content. That actually matters, and there isn’t a good alternative to much of it.
That being said, I agree that people could at least drop it (or reduce their usage) if they are just using it as a time waster.
What headphones in particular are you using? Because with standard AD2P you’re limited to mSBC at best, but maybe your device has some proprietary implementation.
You could try with a hardware dongle, but no guarantee that will work either.
At least in the long run it should be fixed by Bluetooth LE audio, but I’m not sure if the Deck properly supports it yet, and it requires new audio devices as well.
Pulseaudio has been pretty solid for a while now which is what the steamdeck uses from what i can see online.
It uses Pipewire, but it has pretty close to full API compatibility with Pulseaudio (and Jack) so most applications will “just work” and you get lower and more stable latency in return.
And Dijonn mustard!
The drivers for your card needs to support the required extensions, and the hardware needs to support the particular codecs as well. So if you don’t have already have encoding/decoding support for the given codec with OGL etc, this won’t add it most likely.
The main benefit is that application devs won’t need to add multiple hardware decoding/encoding APIs, and can just target Vulkan. Cross platform support in particular is currently a mess due to the different APIs on Windows/Linux/Mac, so this will simplify things greatly. Eventually, driver devs will be able to just support Vulkan too, but that’s a long way off.
It’s just a pretty typical comparison with rich, highly developed Western democracies. Considering the US has the highest GDP in the world, and also the country that spends the most on healthcare per capita, coming last is damning.
As someone who already has a Deck, I’m more keen on this. The Index was very expensive and only had a limited run. Mind you, the Index is expensive in general and I hope they aim for Quest level prices this time around.
I’m not holding my breath but hopefully it increases youth turnout of women. Which is a group that is much more progressive than young men, but both have poor turnout compared to older people.
Developed countries typically have lower birth rates than undeveloped countries.
That is more to do with education and women’s liberation (including contraception), than finances. Which I suspect is still the predominant reason that birth rates are dropping, with finances just a secondary reason.
The NoDerivatives part is concerning. Is he trying to prevent forks?
I’m not sure how this helps Trump. He’s not some upstart like in 2016 where people didn’t know that much about him and the publicity benefited him. All this is doing is solidifying the racist vote, which he already had locked in. The increasing craziness and utter stupidity is going to continue to peel off the slightly more reasonable, and the Democrats can sit back and let the Republicans tear themselves apart.
I’d be happy with 2010 era desktop Linux level of support. It doesn’t need to get everybody to switch, just needs to be good enough for my needs.
We’ve got hearsay and conjecture. Those are “kinds” of evidence.
I only learned to touch type properly because I was bored one summer and went cold turkey and learned Colemak. Before that, I had this weird pseudo touch typing technique with some keys being touch typed and others not, and because of the muscle memory, it was difficult to change.
Batteries are likely to degrade over time, meaning you’ll eventually end up with a worthless ear bud on the left or right and the only solution will be to throw them out. These things are often pretty bad scoring on repairability metrics, and I can’t even blame the companies producing them here because they’re so small.
I’m hoping these start getting recycled for their batteries, like the EU has plans to do.
Anyway, I feel full size wireless headphones are somewhat less problematic as they have bigger batteries, and you can always fall back to wired use (in most cases). But the proprietary app concerns are definitely valid.
The point is to harm people that have less power than you do. There’s a whole political ideology based around that idea.
I believe the idea was that if he was convicted in Florida by a Republican biased jury, there would be fewer claims of it being rigged or whatever. Seems stupid in hindsight since Cannon ended up being assigned the case.
