  • TL;DR

    • The European Council has ended its adoption procedure for rules related to phones with replaceable batteries.
    • By 2027, all phones released in the EU must have a battery the user can easily replace with no tools or expertise.
    • The regulation intends to introduce a circular economy for batteries.

    The open source NVIDIA NVK driver is coming along well
  • Echo has been playing around with NVK+DXVK a bit and has succeeded in getting some games playing. It's still early days and requires some hacks. However, there are a few titles working and I was able to demo Hollow Knight and F1 2017 at the Collabora meet-up in May.

  • www.gamingonlinux.com The open source NVIDIA NVK driver is coming along well

    A project I have a very keen eye on is NVK, the open source NVIDIA Vulkan driver developed by the community (not NVIDIA), and it seems like progress on it is going rather well.

    DirectStorage on Wine/Proton

    Blizzard recently announced that they will be enabling DirectStorage for Diablo 4 in the future. Will gaming on Wine support this feature as new games start to enable it?

    As far as I understand there are two benefits DirectStorage has, one is making load times faster while using less CPU resources and another one allows the GPU to almost entirely bypass the CPU and use the storage directly. Hopefully the first feature would be easier to implement because it doesn't need the GPU drivers. Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty and Starfield are two upcoming games that require SSD to play, presumably because of DirectStorage, curious to see what will the performance be like on Linux using Wine

    The Elder Scrolls 6 is still "five-plus years away"
  • Showing off the teaser was a good PR move in my opinion, because they played it right after they announced some ES mobile game. Same year Blizzard did the same with Diablo Immortal without mentioning Diablo 4 and we all know the "Do You Guys Not Have Phones?" meme that produced
