For how big PS5 is and how small VR is, VR sure has a lot of people playing.
Lemmy has userbase (not even monthly activity) of 0.46mil (acc. to fedidb). Is lemmy dead?
What constitutes for a dead platform to you?
That's not even accurate.
If VR gaming is dead, then what does it say about Linux with about 5 times less users? Like, a low poly game about monkeys has a daily playerbase of a million people there. Mind you, Mincraft has 1 to 1.5 million. Not bad for a "dead" platform. Also, Valve isn't even the last one to enter the market.
I think what you're actually trying to say is that it's too niche, which it absolutely is.
UPD: as of right now, the access isn't blocked in any way.
It is still unclear whether or not the block was intentional, Nvidia gave no comments.
Minor correction: key rate is 19%, interest rates are higher than that as a result.
Some important info that is missing:
Proposed legislation is far from being an actual law. It has only once passed the committee (1st stage out of 5), after which got sent to be re-written. Now it's at pre-1st stage.
So far, it has received 2 negative reviews from the administration. First one, from 2022, said it's redundant, and second one, from 2023 that it's... still just as redundant as it was.
2 out of 3 authors have removed their signatures since the first negative review.
Basically, there's little to no chance this would ever pass. Our "crazy printer" may be insane, but it only does so if there is an ass to lick.
I could even link everything if anybody wants me to. Doubt it won't get removed, but still.
Understandable, ty
To give you some insight, afaik, MacOS is the most horrible to port to because you can't just compile for it and have to get the hardware first, pay for some sort of key second, and reacquire it every time you fail to port it. All of that is for a very insignificant bit of sales.
Linux, on the other hand, that I can not explain.
Out of curiosity, why do you want bedrock specifically?
In my experience, Java is much less buggy, plays better, and has significantly better modding support with no microtransaction bs. The only compelling reason I see is cross play.
I think you'll appreciate #ffcc66
That's fair. I've put it there as more of a possible use case rather than something you should be consistently doing.
Although iGPU can perform quite well when given a lot of RAM, afaik.
If games, modding uses a lot. It can go to the point of needing more than 32gb, but rarely so.
Usually, you'd want 64gb or more for things like video editing, 3d modeling, running simulations, LLMs, or virtual machines.
Doesn't matter with 4.0 drives.
Probably just put it further away from GPU, which should always be in top slot, just to bring temps down a bit. Doesn't really matter if you don't, it won't heat up much from GPU anyway.
I think what you're forgetting is scale.
Lemmy is niche. VR is niche. Gaming is mainstream.
You can't call a niche dead just because there aren't that many people into it. It's a niche for a reason.
Linux is booming, even though it's "dead." Lemmy has never been this active in its entire existence. Why do investments from large companies matter?
What truly matters is growth. Negative growth is what kills a platform/industry/company/whatever else. VR is growing, Linux is growing, Lemmy is growing. It may not be fast, but they all have active userbases that support their development.
You cannot call a child "failure" just because it never achieved anything in life, can you? They are growing. They can get sick, they can recover. They can also regress due to that illness and die. Only then they're truly dead.
