You can skip shader compilation. Also, it sounds like a driver issue. Electron has gpu suppport by default so it shouldn't be laggy.

In my case, i use multiple workspaces. Had a workspace for gaming set up and left the window on the store page. Had a busy week so I didn't game. I usually don't turn off my computer because I contribute to Folding@Home at night. Week flies by and I start to wonder why my ram is full and investigate :D

memory leak's at a rate that doesn't matter (~30mb/hour). That makes it hard to track down & reproduce. Also, solution would be to just navigate to your steam library or just not leave the window open like that :p

Just mount your swap partition on google drive. xd

Oh yeah. If you leave a steam page open, it'll create a very slow memory leak. Left store page open for about a week, came back to 6gb steamwebhelper xd

Could you put trump's face into the sun too? :D

since 2016, valve has been paying for wine development. They didn't just nab it.

Also, calling proton a wrapper is a bit ingenuous. Proton is basically wine with upstream patches that wine will not accept. It's not a wrapper for wine and related software.

I don't think blizzard gets as much hate as it should but I think the reason is simple. :/

i want you to consider that fact that blizzard is a 30 billion dollar company meanwhile nintendo is closer to a 2.5 trillion dollar company. There's going to be a lot more eyes at nintendo than blizzard which will bring more hate to it specifically :/

you're right about other companies being worse, but that doesn't make it ok for nintendo to do what it's doing. They 100% deserve the hate that they get, which was my point really.

Watch them patent pressing w to move forward

90% sure this guy is baiting

can't believe i wasted my time explaining myself to this brainlet.

It's not that they want money, Nintendo is mainly anticonsumerist, but they're also a terrible, evil company. Here's a couple examples why i think so off the top of my head:

• Locked down hardware. Well, at least they try to lock it down as much as possible.
• Insane prices for hardware and games. (50 quid for base Animal Crossing fucked me off when I realised that the DLC costs 50 quid fucking more, i returned my Switch).
• Shitty customer service (look up joy con drift)
• Lawsuits left and right:
  • DMCA to strike down FOSS emulators because they included a 16 byte decryption key that's literally public knowledge at this point. Funnily enough, they use a similar FOSS emulator in their own products.
  • Sued the small company that owns Pal World because they included some of their "patents". We all know that's bullshit.
  • Sued a journalist for writing for a blog about piracy and fucked his life despite him having no involvement in any of the development. (he was forced to take a deal to avoid them making things worse.)
  • Sued a guy who did in fact enable piracy. That's fair. Taking 30% of his income for the rest of his life is fucking evil.
  • Fucked over streamers playing the game on release day because they were in an earlier timezome than japan...
  • Fucked over creators playing their games with an emulator.
  • Fucked over creators on all platforms in general for literally no reason.
  • Took down many MANY fan projects because they could.
• They got mad at event organisers and pulled out last minute because the organisers used a mod to allow internet multiplayer, which caused the official Smash tourney to be cancelled during covid...

meanwhile Valve:

• makes the hardware as open as possible:
  • also literally wrote proton
  • also feel free to use any input device to play games
  • also your game console is a fully functional computer you can do whatever the fuck you want with.
  • also, your screen broke? Here, let me help you fix it.
• charges reasonable amounts:
  • 30% from the developer is industry standard
  • has frequent sales
  • orange box costs like a quid on sale and the lastest halflife costs about 20 on sale.
• you can "return" games if you don't like them.
• first class customer service.
• got a guy arrested for hacking and leaking their source code, which is fair.
• allows and enourages modding.
• massive supporter and contributor of tournaments of their games
• allows the use of their IPs in transformative ways (3rd party games, sfm, etc).

but yeah. They're clealy the same thing. no differences whatsoever.
