Idea: Allow users to subscribe to threads they didn't make so they can get alerted of top-level replies
  • I agree with you that Lemmy should have it (and seems like it will in v1.0), but the devs are more likely to see our feature requests if we submit them on Github instead of as random posts in different communities

    and Github makes it easier to prevent duplicate submissions

  • Idea: Allow users to subscribe to threads they didn't make so they can get alerted of top-level replies
  • Yeah, but they'd probably be better submitted as GitHub issues instead of posts here, or in this case searching for the already existing issue

  • Back to total war I guess
  • Back to Anachronox, Shogo Mobile Armor Division, and Battle Zone 98 Redux, for me.

    Wow what a list of games lol. I loved Anachronox, that game is underrated

  • Another Redditor gives up on Lemmy due to signup issues
  • I would be interested to see if the Reddit crowd is more receptive to Mbin or PieFed

  • Another Redditor gives up on Lemmy due to signup issues
  • On Reddit you see tons of people giving up due to signup issues, usually due to emails I think. Instance admins should really double check their process and make sure it's all working often.

    And the app devs too, if you can signup through the app gotta make sure it works on instances with captchas/email verification/etc

  • Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying.
  • The benefit to a forum is that posts with new comments move to the top. If a Reddit/Lemmy post gets a single new comment it may or may not be seen again by anyone except the OP or of the comment was a reply then to the op of the replied comment.

    Lemmy does have this actually

    New Comments: Bumps posts to the top when they are created or receive a new reply, analogous to the sorting of traditional forums

    https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/03-votes-and-ranking.html

    and then there's the "Active" sort, which is kind of a compromise

    Active (default): Calculates a rank based on the score and time of the latest comment, with decay over time

    Comments from multiple posts on the same page
  • It's a little bit not-obvious that the top comments are from News@lemmy.world here

    Maybe they should get a header just like all the other communities do for their sets of comments?

    the comments from the other communities actually stand out more than the comments of the current community, due to the headers, without the header the comments just kinda blend in

  • One-handed games?
  • I guess games like Monkey Island (1 to 3, and Return, the 3D ones would be harder) could work using the touch screen or touchpad working as a mouse

    Archive.org says this was released 2015, but he played this song live in Manchester in 2010. According to this now-dead link https://web.archive.org/web/20101222022252/http://www.percussionlab.com/sets/wisp/live_at_the_music_box_manchester_01-04-2010

    Here is that liveset: https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.percussionlab.com/audio/mp3s/1032/wisp_masterd.mp3

    This song starts out at about 36min, I'd love to know what song starts at 31min

    Kdenlive 24.12.3 released
  • I like Kdenlive, but I never tried Blender. I think Kdenlive is the good middle-ground complexity for me, DaVinci was too overcomplicated for me just to make a couple of videos a year. I used to use VideoPad, which is ok, it renders faster than Kdenlive, but I think the editing process is less efficient, and it has other issues. In some ways Kdenlive is less stable (crashes more often), but it seems less likely to end up with a project file that becomes unworkable. Sometimes in VideoPad you'd end up with too much stuff and the editing process would become laggy or just cumbersome (limited channels and effects). Kdenlive is a bit more powerful without becoming more complicated.

  • Recommend a FPS game for linux?
  • Counter-Strike 2? The 2023 game? Are you sure it requires 32 bit?

    Assassin's Creed Shadows Drops To 40 FPS At 720P On The Next-Gen Nvidia RTX 5070Ti
  • 4K max settings with RT max, and without frame generation, only achieved 30s FPS in the game

    So basically 720p doesn't perform much better than 4k, meaning it's a horrible CPU bottleneck

    Today in the DirectX State of the Union at GDC 2025, we proudly showcased the next evolution in graphics with the announcement of DirectX Raytracing (DXR) 1.2. This update promises groundbreaking performance improvements and breathtaking visual fidelity, marking another milestone in our mission to d...

    Announcing DirectX Raytracing 1.2, PIX, Neural Rendering and more at GDC 2025!Β  - DirectX Developer Blog

    ># DirectX Raytracing 1.2: Game-Changing Performance Boosts > > - Opacity micromaps significantly optimize alpha-tested geometry, delivering up to 2.3x performance improvement in path-traced games. By efficiently managing opacity data, OMM reduces shader invocations and greatly enhances rendering efficiency without compromising visual quality. > - Shader execution reordering offers a major leap forward in rendering performance β€” up to 2x faster in some scenarios β€” by intelligently grouping shader execution to enhance GPU efficiency, reduce divergence, and boost frame rates, making raytraced titles smoother and more immersive than ever. This feature paves the way for more path-traced games in the future.

    NVIDIA was already doing these in a few games, but nice to have them as part of the standard

    ># Cooperative Vectors & Neural Rendering: Next-Generation Realism > > - Neural Block Texture Compression is a new graphics technique that dramatically reduces memory usage, while maintaining exceptional visual fidelity. Overall, our partners at Intel shared that by leveraging cooperative vectors to power advanced neural compression models, they saw a 10x speed up in inference performance. > - Real-time path tracing can be enhanced by neural supersampling and denoising, combining two of the most cutting-edge graphics innovations to provide realistic visuals at practical performance levels.

    NVIDIA announced this recently

    ScummVM :: Latest Developments :: A dark seed has been planted

    A dark seed has been planted

    "Dark Seed", a 90's point-and-click horror game from the mind of H.R. Giger, is now ready for public testing!

    In the game you play the role of Mike Dawson, who just moved to a beautiful solitary mansion to pursue his dream of becoming a writer. You'll soon realise that the place harbors dark secrets, and you'll have just three days to escape a fate worse than death...

    The DOS Floppy and CD versions are supported. The engine also supports a number of localised versions Spanish, French, German, Korean and Chinese.

    The floppy version currently lacks sound effects but all other features from the original game should be present.

    The engine also has the option of using the "arguably" better floppy music with the CD version if you have both.

    To participate in the testing, ensure you have a daily development build. As always, please submit the bug reports to our issue tracker.
