classified as a “suspected” extremist group

The AfD was classified by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution as “confirmed right-wing extremist” in Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia. There is nothing "suspected" about it. They are without even the slightest doubt extreme right-wing facists. Or in short, fucking Nazis.

Nice. That saves money on heating. Can use it for the ammo I'll need in the upcoming water wars.

Had not seen that Allensbach has not updated yet. It is usually much closer to the results than e.g. INSA. But yeah, looks they went up a bit indeed. ffs..

The polls show AfD at 18% now. I have to admit I'm seriously scared. We need to ban this bastards asap.

I would also have a look at the XDA forum. A very large percentage of devices that are not officially supported have unofficial ports (Lineage and others) that run 99% as well as the official ones.

e.g. my old Galaxy S8 was not official supported but one of the staff members of XDA made a port that runs like an absolute dream.

Admittedly, it is not enforced often enough and hard enough, but in general this falls under criminal organisations law.

German Criminal Code §129

Whoever supports such an organisation or recruits members or supporters for such an organisation incurs a penalty of imprisonment for a term not exceeding three years or a fine.

Of course they are banned. There is a long list with organisations and groups that were banned since 1951. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_in_Deutschland_verbotener_rechtsextremer_Organisationen

Not only symbols are prohibited. Extreme-Right / Facist / Nazis writings, music, images, videos, etc. are also banned.

Holocaust denial is forbidden. Historical relativism in relation to the Second World War is prohibited. etc.

x.com was PayPal before it got renamed and then the donain was unused until the twitter fiasko.

You were claiming that some libraries had limited support for CPUs from 2012, which is simple said absolute and utter nonsense.

You are also trying to pin Vulcan problems on CPUs. Which is nonsense as well, since Vulkan has absolutely nothing to do with CPUs since it is a graphics API using the GPU. The only thing that may be is that you were using the integrated GPU built in your CPU, which was not compatible with Vulkan instead of using your dedicated GPU.

In that case, it could explain why changing the CPU fixed the problem, but it was actually never a problem of the CPU itself but a configuration error on your part.

And as said, Wine will run on absolutely anything that came after a Pentium III, so it is very much impossible that your CPU that was from 2012 could not run Wine. But it would be of course very helpful if you would actually tell us what CPU you had.

And yes, i tested it. My old CPU was a Phenom 2 from 2010 and Wine ran just fine with it and still does . And i very clearly gave you the reason in my first post. Which is Wine requiring SSE2.

Man, i even can play some older games with Wine on my Dell XPS M1330 Laptop which came out in 2007. That thing runs an ancient Dual-Core. This needs some tinkering though.

Then it was an software problem. It can't be the CPU. unless you were using something very old. maybe the problem got solved when you reinstalled the system after you got your new CPU.

That is only really a problem for CPUs one would consider today as ancient like a Pentium 3 from 1999 because it doesn't have e.g. SSE2 support which Wine (and afaik Vulkan) needs. Everything after that should work without any problems.

With older or slower CPUs performance may suffer, of course, but that is not a compatibility question.
