In the long-term yes, but in the short-term and even medium-term, housing takes time to build, so there’s going to be a lag. During that lag, it can cause problems even without NIMBY policies.

I feel like there’s also the point that on Mac OS a lot of stuff “just works” because everything else just doesn’t work at all. I have a number of things that just aren’t going to work at all on Mac. Linux is obviously much more permissive, which leads to a lot more kinda working stuff that just wouldn’t work at all on Mac.
The compositors are the ones doing a lot of the protocol development. They want to have WIP versions so they can see what issues crop up, they’ve been making versions all doing. Now, I agree that it is slowing things down, but it’s more of just an additional thing that needs to get done, not so much a chicken and egg problem.
For a very long time people will also still need to understand what they are asking the machine to do. If you tell it to write code for an impossible concept, it can’t make it. If you ask it to write code to do something incredibly inefficiently, it’s going to give you code that is incredibly inefficient.
Programming languages is way too broad a category. There’s a lot of variation in both power and difficulty.
Linux may very well not be for you, but using Arch first is like jumping into the deep end to learn how to swim. It’s no surprise you’re drowning. I’d recommend you try a gaming-focused distro like Nobara before you go back to Windows for good.
Oh yeah, to be clear I don’t think Macs can’t be good gaming machines, it’s just that it doesn’t seem to be heading that way right now.
Windows has one major thing going for it: it’s best-in-class for gaming. It might even be the greatest gaming platform of all time. Linux and even Mac are gaining ground, but they’ve got a little ways to go.
…is Mac gaming actually gaining ground? From listening to a friend of mine who has a Mac, it sounds like Mac gaming is going steadily backwards. Wine and similar doesn’t work very well for them, and Mac compatibility is happening with fewer and fewer games. Game Porting Toolkit isn’t really for end users, is it? Is there something else my friend is missing?
Noveau is terrible for gaming. If you want any kind of reasonable gaming experience you’ll need the propietary Nvidia driver (for now).
This isn’t binding tho, Adobe could change their minds in a year and then legally train an AI on all the data they’ve collected. Their own blog post doesn’t even preclude that, their AI language is present tense. In addition they could just license the data to other AI companies.
Even if it wasn’t a gimmick, it still wouldn’t be benevolent. Corporations only lower prices when they think the lower price can make them more money overall.
This is a great list of USB wifi adapter chipset compatibility.
That’s fair. It’s an all-around sucky situation regardless, and it makes sense why AMD isn’t marketing socket longevity quite as much in AM5 as they were with AM4.
I do think losing capabilities for older CPUs in favor of new ones is pretty common for long lived sockets, and is an acceptable tradeoff for longevity imo. The board I was originally using for a 2600X never promised 5000 series support, but almost added it anyways. Unfortunately it never got beyond a beta bios, and I decided that wasn’t good enough for me (and I ended up giving the old mobo to my sister in a build for them, so it all worked out anyways).
How did you know the CPU wasn’t the problem? Sometimes CPUs have defects. Especially given the underclocking seemed to help.
Just to clarify, a few airplanes still use leaded gasoline. The vast majority do not.
I believe that the custom for a lot of wine patch notes is just to mention the first application reported with the bug even if it affects many applications. So that could be what’s happening here.
That said, Valve does not support the official Ubuntu way of installing Steam, which is via snap (‘apt install steam’ will install the snap). So you have to make sure to install the Steam way (manually via the deb) instead.
The reason is 24.04 is LTS, and they want to keep things more stable, even if that means more bugs. 24.10 should come with 6.1 in the fall.
Currently yes, tho Wine has gotten pretty far with Wayland support, so it wouldn’t be too surprising to see Wine Wayland be useable for gaming in the next year or two.
In 2027 the current iteration won’t be legally able to be sold in the EU, since the EU will require portable devices to have easily replaceable batteries. (Which the Steam does not qualify for due to needing a heat gun). So an upgrade is almost certainly planned by then.
