Got me there :D

See, that’s a common mistake - MPFR library is a C library for multiple-precision floating-point computations with correct rounding. Valve is, unfortunately, still stuck to integers. Their floating point appears to be functioning correctly as they’ve managed to avoid kernel panic releasing hl2e{1,2} - you can look at that as floats 2.1 and 2.2.

It’s actually a technical problem - Valve is running 1 bit computers that, due to binary origins, can only represent 2 states. They’d love to release hl3, but that would require coming up with the whole new architecture - at least doubling up to 2 bit cpu. Imagine the headache of adapting all the toolchain to build the game!

Double check if you have the -modules and/or -modules-extra installed for that version of the kernel. Literally had this issue at work on a 14.04 (sigh, I know) box.

Because that requires actually understanding the way a computer works.

Excuse me, sir, it’s the Gentoo bits that are supposed to be hard, not yours.

On an unrelated note - I’m building a binhost. Currently stuck on trying to figure out a way of building packages without instaling them and not using quickpkg>

I’ve been pondering about responding to you. Since I can’t see this as some sort of irony - here goes.

I’m sorry, but you’re wrong. The shadow in your example would be bound by the speed of light, because the photons from the source of light are also bound by it.

A shadow is just a lack of photons on a surface surrounded by other photons.

Wait, there’s someone here aware of hardened gentoo? Well I’ll be damned! Come out of the shadows, fellas!

Thanks for giving a genuine smile :)

Isn’t this where the guy in the yellow jacket lives?

No it won’t. That’s such a stupid thing to write about. I don’t remember tomshardware being this clickbaity.

Nothing is ever gone. You can always install whatever bug-ridden version you want of anything.

It also hurts reddit. Fewer useful lookups on reddit - fewer visits to reddit.

You can run

apt install package=version

to be explicit about it.

/instances will give you that info

There’s definitely going to be a price increase, but I hope most of it comes from higher tier bikes being sold rather than just a price bump.

I agree in general, but would like to point out that it is possible to escape. Not completely, but I have managed to set up an environment where it’s mostly fine. And by mostly fine I mean not perferct, but using somebody else’s device makes my eye twitch.

I think this is a /c/whoosh moment

You’re trying to be reasonable when OP is not :)

And most of all, what would be the best GPU for modern gaming on Linux (any distro)?

Anything Intel or AMD should do. As to what the best GPU is - that is really up to your wallet to tell.
