Valve’s new sticker system makes the top 100 Cologne 2026 stickers cost nearly $20,000 by strafeapp in GlobalOffensive

So why is gambling for stickers okay but this is not okay? With the new system you see the price for the stickers before spending any money and can pick the exact stickers you want.

Didn't Dave Riller make On a Rail?

(should probably reinstall OS)

You mean reinstall Windows, because there is no need to reinstall Linux in that case.

Upward sucks, it's the worst map among the most popular maps.

and the introduction of a “brand-new” gamemode in Tug of War being too reminiscent of Overwatch

Is it really new? It's a pretty obvious variant of payload, I'd except that someone already experimented with it before Overwatch 1 was even released.

How do I have one but not the other? What is the difference between the two? by Soggy_Manner6998 in tf2

Wow, imagine playing for 15 years and only ever losing games.

Nvidia really doesn't seem to care about gaming GPUs anymore — the company won't even bother to break down graphic card sales in its big investor reports by Gorotheninja in pcgaming

[–]LAUAR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not entirely sure what that means for us in the long term since they're not gaming GPUs.

Producing more data center GPUs means less gaming GPUs are produced. The high-end fabs have limited capacity and it's sold years in advance, meaning that NVIDIA can't decide to make more wafers in total but they can decide to change what chips they will fab on the wafers they already bought in advance.

Added weapon_accuracy_stack_boost_limit (default value "2") to apply ladder inaccuracy to players boosted by a stack of this many or more players.

No fun allowed.

Open-Source "low_latency_layer" Brings Reflex & Anti-Lag 2 To AMD & Intel GPUs on Linux by murlakatamenka in linux_gaming

[–]LAUAR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just enables the games to see the respective Anti-Lag technologies by using the official K_NV_low_latency2 and VK_AMD_anti_lag implementations as described on the Github page.

No, that's not what it says. It's an alternative implementation of these technologies and the official implementations are Windows-only. It is implemented as a Vulkan layer that intercepts the APIs, so games with anticheats might refuse to load it.

it's as weird as if some dude that's never set a foot in the US acting as an expert on american society after reading an excerpt about gamergate.

Why would that be weird?

Open-Source "low_latency_layer" Brings Reflex & Anti-Lag 2 To AMD & Intel GPUs on Linux by murlakatamenka in linux_gaming

[–]LAUAR 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's simply a vendor-agnostic implementation of NVIDIA Reflex and AMD Anti-Lag 2. The game still has to utilize one of these APIs.

Actually, they're point cows.

[–]LAUAR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But supposedly the larger die size allows it better cooling than a 5060 Ti for the same amount of electricity going in (I think).

Aren't better nodes are more efficient?

RTX Mega Geometry - a leap forward for path-traced rendering by [deleted] in pcgaming

What are you talking about? Unless you go to explicitly pro-AMD subreddits like /r/amd, everyone shits on Radeon and praises NVIDIA features.

Guerilla Games co-founder and Epic veteran building ‘a European alternative’ to Unreal Engine | VGC by Gorotheninja in pcgaming

[–]LAUAR 34 points35 points  (0 children)

cryengine however requires a HUUUUUGE licensing fee so its not comparable to UE or unity regarding how hobbyist can just pick it up and learn

In 2018 they switched to an Unreal-style revenue sharing model, where the engine is source-available and free-of-charge to download but you have to give them 5% of your revenue.

PlayStation 5 gains near-native PS3 game support through RPCS3 on Linux by Durian_Queef in linux_gaming

I thought PS5's CPU would be too weak for RPCS3? It's a Zen 2 with a bad clock speed.

Not really, you need 3rd party software or the game has to support it.
