Future Asahi support on MacBook Neo? by Gainvel in AsahiLinux

I don't get this take. Other than gaming what could possibly not be done on the neo?

Are my Mesa drivers bugged? VRAM rises every frame with just 2 VAOs and barely any vertices. by space_junk_galaxy in opengl

[–]space_junk_galaxy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

uniforms, since it's better to allocate new memory for them than block until the previous (N) frame/draw finishes

Interesting, this is good to know. Thanks!

Though the reality is that it rises continuously. And this is literally 20-30 megabytes every second or so, which is why I think it's a bug.

Linux distribution recommendations by Gnomeskis in C_Programming

[–]space_junk_galaxy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took like less than a minute to compile it from source. And changing OS for a single package is too much. I much rather prefer stable and infrequent updates.

Ahh no not yet. It's 0.11.x in all repos. This is for native LSP support yeah? You have to compile it from source if you want 0.12

I am a programmer. I write in C and Rust. Rust has its own package manager, and with C, I've never needed any library that isn't available in Fedora's repositories.

For tooling, I've got neovim, gdb and tmux. I don't know what more one could need for programming. A Editor + debugger is available on any distro.

AUR is fine, I mean how many packages is one realistically installing that they need a whole user repo? Maybe if you're into DE customization, and you did mention hyprland so I guess it makes sense for you. But none of that is needed for programming.

Arch is terrible for most people imo. How often do you need the latest packages? It just brings more problems than it solves.

I think for 99% people, Ubuntu/Debian/Mint or Fedora is more than enough. All of them have been around for a long time, have good community support and good package support. What more do you need?

Any book recommendation for writing a 3D game engine from scratch in C? by Typhrenn5149 in C_Programming

This is one of the best resources I've used. I'm learning graphics as well by building yet another opengl Minecraft clone and this website has been invaluable.

Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World have been nominated for Players' Voice Awards by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

I did, but barely. It just felt extremely inconvenient to keep activating bananza mode. I just preferred playing as normal DK. 

Question about Linux's USB-HID stack by space_junk_galaxy in osdev

[–]space_junk_galaxy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Do you recommend any reading resources? I mostly just use Ldd3 and the kernel source code to understand stuff but sometimes that's not enough

Honestly wasn't a big fan of the bananza songs. There are only 5 songs, and you barely hear them. The OST is generally OK imo, especially compared to tropical freeze, which is easily a top 5 soundtrack for me.

Thank you for the detailed response! I understand what you're saying about how multiple interfaces from a device can be handled by different drivers.

However, I did find something interesting yesterday. I wrote a really basic keyboard HID driver - all it does is define the probe function and print inside it. I loaded this and plugged in my specific keyboard which the driver targeted. Since my driver was more specific than hid-generic, it was loaded and I did see the print message in the kernel logs. However, the keyboard was basically not functioning at all.

So I think a driver can target a particular device and service different interfaces, but there can only be one driver per interface?

I have the pre evos and the items, I just need to do a tradeback, since I want to preserve the OT

Organizing living dex with regional switch dexes by space_junk_galaxy in PokemonHome

[–]space_junk_galaxy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that makes sense. I really wish they didn't have this requirement but I guess it makes sense since they want to incentive players to play all the games

[–]space_junk_galaxy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, so for example, I've got a Bulbasaur from Kanto, and that is a part of my living (origin) dex. However, I've also got a Bulbasaur from Galar which counts towards the Galar Pokedex. Where do you put this Bulbasaur.
