This is only counting confirmed dead games. There are still loads of game companies and shot loads of stupid peoples money to be drained.

mifan@feddit.dkto Technology@lemmy.world•Chrome pushes forward with plans to limit ad blockers in the futureEnglish366·1 year agoAt this point I’m beginning to feel fine with it. If you care, switch to Firefox, you probably already did, if not, enjoy your ads.

mifan@feddit.dkto World News@lemmy.world•Putin Unleashes Record Bombing in Ukraine as the World Watches GazaEnglish361·2 years agoUnfortunately it’s not that easy.
They have already got a large sum of F16’s, but it takes training of Ukrainian pilots before they can be used in combat.
From what I understand they should be ready to fly in early 2024. That still a long time to go - but you don’t want to lose pilots or planes because of inexperience with that type of airplane.
Or even make it till 20:57
mifan@feddit.dkto Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux vs Windows tested in 10 games - Linux 17% faster on Average4·2 years agoThanks for the feedback - I’ve installed Pop OS tonight and installed bnet, wow, unreal engine, rocket league and steam.
Battle.net had a few problems because of the host file, and Vulkan apparently needed some fiddling - but at apart from that, I must say everything runs smoothly.
I look forward to test a lot of things deeper - but for now it very much seems like an experience I could get used to.
mifan@feddit.dkto Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux vs Windows tested in 10 games - Linux 17% faster on Average4·2 years agoYou’re right - but I’d say things on newer windows versions are pretty much out of the box. It may ask for driver installs, but that’s often just pressing a confirmation box.
It’s not that I’m afraid of the technical stuff - I am a windows sys admin and software developer. I just have bad memories of hours of getting drivers to work on Linux. I’m sure, that if I make the change and are happy, eventually I’ll take a deeper dive. But it takes a good first time impression to get there.
mifan@feddit.dkto Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux vs Windows tested in 10 games - Linux 17% faster on Average2·2 years agoThanks for the answer - I’ve usually just gone with Ubuntu. Would that still be the recommended distro for gaming?
mifan@feddit.dkto Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux vs Windows tested in 10 games - Linux 17% faster on Average2·2 years agoApart from wow and flight sim, I play rocket league, satisfactory, old school monkey island (and other point and click games) and FIFA from time to time and I make small game projects in unreal engine.
mifan@feddit.dkto Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux vs Windows tested in 10 games - Linux 17% faster on Average245·2 years agoI really want to switch to Linux, but I’ve been told this before and then ended up spending hours trying to get everything to work, and usually give up … but it’s been a couple of years since I tried the last time, so is this the right time?
I have zero interest in the technical parts of Linux or setting things up. I want things to work out if the box. I may have to dual boot because of WoW and MS Flight Sim, but if everything else works it may be worth it.
Edit: wow thanks for the answers. You may have convinced me to try again.
For some reason the dollar symbol annoys me so much - I’m fine with underscore and asterisk, but I’ve never found a good flow with the dollar sign.
mifan@feddit.dkto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•LF cheesy oneliners for my Halloween costume7·2 years agoMost programming languages uses = to copy a value into whatever whatever you put on the left side. You did it with TooClose, which you set to true.
But when you compare values as you do with the if statement, you need another operator, otherwise CanReadThis will be set to true and the if statement will always run (or syntax error), making it unnecessary.
Compare operators are typically == and/or === and some languages uses their own like ‘eq’ or other exciting ways.
Languages and compilers works in different ways, but your program could look like this. (When comparing a Boolean you don’t need the operator, you can just write the variable since it’s either true or false)
If (CanReadThis) { TooClose = true; }

Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a looong time…
