If you want to be pedantic, straight out of the lab this stuff would be equivalent to “clarified butter”. Butter, from which all impurities have been removed.

Still butter tho.

Thanks.

“Bro”, butter is literally just a hydrocarbon. As in carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms.

Making it in the lab produces chemically identical molecules.

As in, literally the same thing. Like actually for real no difference. Including however bad or healthy it is to eat.

Any nuances in the real thing will be from impurities that would have to be added to the lab produced stuff, should you want to.

The real difference is how it is made, not in what it produces. Meaning the synthetic option can be produced without livestock, and potentially using much less energy and land.

You don’t use DirectX on Linux, as it is a windows API.

Instead, you use DXVK or VKD3D which provide DirectX functionality, but while translating the actual GPU calls to Vulkan.

If you have installed the Linux version of Steam (not the windows version inside wine) Steam will handle everything for you after you enable steam play for all titles in settings.

In steam, you can choose a default proton/wine version to use, and also set one for each game in the game properties.

For Heroic, it should install these things automatically, but this may be broken. It wasn’t working for me last I needed it.

Instead, you can use protonUP-QT to download additional versions of wine, which can then be used in Heroic. GE versions should come with DXVK and VKD3D already.

If you need a particular dependency (like vcrun), this can be installed using winetricks/protontricks.

When using protontricks, select the game, then select installing dependencies to the default prefix.

For Heroic, open the settings for a game. There should be a button to access winetricks, from there select default prefix, then install dependencies.

Find your dependency, and install it.

Yes. A lot of such places are still below the seabed, hence off-shore oil-rigs.

Deep frying specificaly refers to frying by submerging in hot oil. Fried chicken is deep fried.

This is why you sometimes have to make it specific by saying “deep fried” or “pan fried”.

Yes and no. They’re both hydrocarbons.

Coal is organic matter from dry land, so typically plants.

Oil is from organic matter that fell to the ocean floor, so microbial life, algae and the like.

But both are from and end up as the same types of organic molecules. Carbon and hydrogen.

And then beat it two more times.

The story changes slightly each time kinda like Nier: Automata.

That’s a bug which is fixed in the next version.

Still a pain waiting for the next version to actually drop. That seems like it should warrant a hotfix.

No.

Those features are part of the desktop environment, which doesn’t run at all in game mode.

Yeah.

There’s a youtuber who’s had a static image on the switch oled on ever since it came out. He makes a yearly check-up video showing the progress on the burn-in.

Suffice to say in normal use OLED burn-in is essentially a thing of the past. It’s only still a thing on extreme brightness TVs where the panel is pushed to the very limit in terms of how much voltage it can handle.

At dimmed brightness, downloading some games, it won’t be an issue.

Oh for fucks sake. Again?

My monitor is ultrawide. It’s cropping off the top and bottom, fitting it into the horizontal resolution of 1080p, which is 1920. Vertical hence ends up at 804.

Why would the line about encoding on the GPU suggest AV1 is supported? GPUs can encode using lots of codecs. Are your files AV1?

My card does support AV1, and I use it in OBS, but it also supports H264, HEVC and even older formats. In OBS you choose whatever supported encoding you like.

Steam seems to just use H264 with no option to use something newer.

I’d really like AV1 support, and a resolution setting. Right now it records my 3440x1440 ultrawide as 1920x804.

Is Tymora trying to reward Konsi, but she just keeps returning the rewards feeling indebted by her good favor?

SNW has landed much more solidly for me, as well. I really hope it continues.

Or just for some catharsis?

Yes. When it comes to communication on things that don’t actually significantly impact reality, such as governmental policy, was there ever any greater point than that? (Except for when fiction comments on things like governmental policy.)

The only way to win a game of “immovable object vs unstoppable force” is to not play at all.

The logical endpoint of that logic is both of us deleting our accounts and never interacting with others online again.

I don’t subscribe to it.

Ok.

So you’re saying I’m wrong to have watched it at all, should shut up, accept it wasn’t made for me, walk away and stop sharing opinions online?

If we really boil it down, I wanted discos writing to be less contrived, less forced in its emotional high points, and more consistent and restrained in its fantastical worldbuilding.

I’m really sorry you didn’t enjoy everything about the series, but your subjective experience is what it is.

I won’t belittle it by superficially rehashing your words to apply them to something else.
