It's always run as good as any other web-based client on my end. According to a third-party test presumably commissioned by Epic, its empty library cold start time of about 5s was already better than that of Steam as of August 2023, with more improvements planned for this year. In the real world, the boot time would depend on the library size, use frequency (caching), and other factors.

In part because they bought property in the region after the annexation.

Average is a poor metric, as it accounts for the rich who steal like there's no tomorrow in countries like Russia. Go by the minimum.

The user's whole history is extremely suspicious and composed of actions like that. Here is just one random example from two days after the alleged botting took place:

That's 35 pixels placed in less than half a second.

That's a good observation. The thumbnail is indeed updated and at a higher res at https://toast.ooo/post/4077161 compared to lemmy.world for example.

Is the thumbnail version going to be the final official version? It's from hours before the end.

I preferred being able to interact with the canvas even with the settings menu open. This allows for quick transparency adjustments without having to go back and forth every time.

I haven't played it yet. I prioritize Game Pass, since those games come and go, but on Steam the library is semi-permanent. Sometimes I really feel like playing a particular game from my library, so I prioritize that over the ones I like on Game Pass.

We know WhatsApp uses the Signal protocol for encryption, but it also collects a lot of metadata. Arguably still better than Telegram that collects everything. Its secret chats may be e2ee but nobody uses them even for discussing sensitive matters, and they don't work on the Desktop.

I bought Dreamfall Chapters. It's the only one of its series that doesn't feel too dated to be playable to me.

From a financial report by Remedy.

Previously, it was announced that "the game has already recouped a significant part of the development and marketing expenses"

The game uses UE 5.4 and Epic's MetaHuman Creator. More on the game tech in this video.
