Do the slots share lanes?

If you remove the last drive and try again is it any faster?

Both intel and AMD are running the same instruction set though are they not? (Cross licensing x86/x64)

2 things to note:

When offline, switch into steam offline mode to launch games, gets round some of the hanging on launch issues

Try connecting to WiFi from the steam decks desktop mode? Probably a router issue though.

I think you can already with web assembly?

And their bedtime brew (with vanilla and nutmeg) is the best decaf I have found too!

I bought Reus 2 (A puzzle god game) at launch last month - game changer!

Finally a game that I enjoy playing on the deck and actually want to play after work on my commute etc. highly recommend it.

If you have lots of tabs up top you can’t see the names, vertical tabs lets you see more/all of the tab titles.

I have been using the tree style tabs add-on for years, it’s amazing for a tab hoarder.

Isn’t this functionality already built into the default web UI?

There should be options for hard difficulty that are due to the AI being better, not just getting massive buffs.

Some of the examples given were about the AI not even knowing about certain game mechanics!

But when you have a problem, you complain to your representative that represents your area and knows all the details. That’s a powerful thing.

In the UK at least there are a lot of seats that are swung by those holding them rather than their party.

That way still ends up with candidates that you didn’t vote for though, the ranked choice method means you always have a vote in each round.

In any round though you only have 1 vote still, it’s just collecting the votes ahead of time? The only thing you lose is knowing who is in each round in advance?

In your example, wouldn’t the same candidates have been knocked out in each round regardless?

I was more thinking https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deccan_Traps

More than 1 million cubic kilometres of lava. Enough gasses to cause a mass extinction event.

Ugh, life took ages to get started. Lazy bacteria!

It’s still a hell of a long time if you consider that the entirety of recorded (ish) history is only a few thousand years long.

Updated comment to remove an order of magnitude.

It’s not X turning into Y when it comes to evolution. There were all kinds of different dinosaurs, that evolved I to all kinds of different niches. Most of those then went extinct due to rocks falling from the sky, or the entirety of India turning into a huge volcano etc.

So it’s not that a T-Rex turned into a chicken, it’s that T-Rexs lived alongside other dinosaurs that developed feathers and filled more niches etc. those that survived eventually became birds. (Have you ever seen an Emu up close?!? No wonder the Australians lost to them 🤣)

Disclaimer: I have no specific knowledge. Also, remember this happened over (billions? hundreds of millions) of years.

Other comments about just not noticing feathers are valid too.

Wow, this is a long read. Well worth it for anyone who got caught in Rome TW2’s hype and subsequent disappointment.

Would be good to see what other games he later worked on. Will try to remember to look him up on linkedin when I have time

A) discord

B) make friends with one person that does this or plays with other groups, then join them when they are playing with others

It’s probably a single dev that made the decision, then moves onto something else. They (probably?) don’t have the ability to just raise a recurring PO etc to easily pay you and don’t care enough to worth through the paperwork.

If you had a paid licencing model they may have done it, or just found another lib/ wrote their own.

What is their monetisation plan? Currently they don’t seem to have anything other than donations?
