  • Anytime I’ve seen this error is because I’m messing about with partitions, the last time was a few months ago when migrating to a larger disk, so I’m not too sure about those 90%.

    In any case, sounds like a very helpful tip if the error just shows up out of the blue.




  • A brilliant one.

    DOGE is out looking for profitability, which is as much a goal of federal agencies, as hoarding peanut butter is for the Legal or Financial departments, which is to say not at all.

    A government’s purpose is never to generate profit. It’s to make use of the common wealth to improve the lives of its citizens. In a country with so much wealth, and yet the people face so much strife, the government has already failed.

    DOGE is just accelerating the downward spiral.



  • So many games work on Proton/Wine these days, it’s not really surprising anymore.

    Nowadays you have a huge chunk of games being built on massively popular engines like Unity and Unreal, making it much easier to support/optimise for.

    Another big point is that you’re not developing exclusively against DirectX. Vulkan is very popular, and both APIs are frequently supported by game engines. This introduces some “good habits”, in that it forces the devs to think about compatibility from the get go, instead of trying to come up with shady tricks to get one or two extra fps that only work in specific conditions and crash the game otherwise.
