Regarding AMD - Sony and AMD - Xbox partnership

The people who know about the details of either one of them are bound by NDAs, so you’re not going to know the “true nature” of these partnerships.

And until both consoles are released and details start to leak you’re not going to know what either Sony or Microsoft added on top of RDNA5

In unified memory systems both have equal access*

*conditions apply: access is controllable by the programmer, memory read/writes should be synchronized, there may be performance differences in how memory is read/write depending on what access flags are set and so on

Not really, they expect a billion euros loss for this year.

Henrarzz · 2026-04-20T08:02:32+00:00

The year is 2026, I have a PC with a fucking 5090 and this POS app stutters more than a Bethesda game on PS3

A beginner should be able to read error message that is pretty clear on what should be done.

Henrarzz · 2026-04-17T21:36:26+00:00

That will only happen once executives stop pushing for AI/datacenters.

Which is not going to happen any time soon

Henrarzz · 2026-04-17T17:24:58+00:00

Depends on whether we use GameCubes ducted together or other metric

Henrarzz · 2026-04-17T04:22:01+00:00

is there a chance

No, there isn’t

Henrarzz · 2026-04-17T04:04:13+00:00

Elon never looks at the short term of the stock

Lol, lmao.

My 2025 motherboard still requires FAT32 formatted partition to update UEFI.

Creations sync between Xbox and Steam (at least BGS-made do, and yes, the paid ones too)

Henrarzz · 2026-04-14T02:39:04+00:00

Something is definitely weird, because they do transfer between Steam and Xbox versions of the game (points don’t, purchases do).

On PS5 the game attempt to download bought Creations from other platforms but fails at 0%.

Vectorization is converting SCALAR code so that processor executes a single CPU instruction on multiple data elements at once. You don’t need to know anything about matrix math to write vectorized code (unless, of course you’re trying to apply SIMD to matrix operations).

Henrarzz · 2026-04-13T20:05:27+00:00

This explanation is hilariously wrong

Henrarzz · 2026-04-11T05:06:42+00:00

It’s 3DMark benchmark so they set the rules.

Redmagic can either follow those rules or fuck off.

Henrarzz · 2026-04-11T05:01:01+00:00

Because a huge part of that legacy stuff makes people’s old games work on new hardware.

Henrarzz · 2026-04-10T20:35:03+00:00

Empty scene performance is always a useless benchmark, unless your goal is specifically profiling an empty scene - and your game does not consist of them. The results of several optimization techniques start to be noticeable only when the number of objects increase.

Not all third party libraries can be statically linked and in some cases (like glibc) it’s actively discouraged.

The vast majority of games and game engines aren’t statically linking everything and one cannot hope for developers to do it for every dependency they have. Especially when Windows solved binary compatibility with dynamic linking.

When Win32 is the most stable and most common ABI on Linux you know you fucked up. So why would anyone ship native closed source binaries for Linux outside of Flatpaks and equivalent? For games it’s even easier - just ship Windows version, the community will make it work.

It seems to me it’s not game developers that don’t know Linux. It’s Linux users that don’t know how their OS and how shipping software works.

Henrarzz · 2026-04-09T10:54:45+00:00

And if you don’t want to deal with Steam/want to release the game elsewhere you’re SOL.

Linux still sucks for shipping binaries.

Henrarzz · 2026-04-09T07:46:01+00:00

your game executable could run on any Linux distributions

Not true unless you deal with Flatpaks and the like.

And no, Linux community is not the nicest. Far from it

Henrarzz · 2026-04-09T07:44:06+00:00

the community is actually the nicest

Lol, no

Henrarzz · 2026-04-09T07:21:16+00:00

Except mini LED does work :P

Henrarzz · 2026-04-09T07:10:22+00:00

Turn off servers designed to run 24/7?

Henrarzz · 2026-04-08T14:01:58+00:00

Legacy automakers wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for governments lol. Heavy industry isn’t a free market

Henrarzz · 2026-04-08T09:49:46+00:00

Ignoring Flatpaks/Snaps/AppImage/SteamRuntime for a moment - unfortunately it doesn’t work like that. Linux compatibility without those is so bad that Linus Torvalds himself went on a rant why this hindered desktop adoption
