I'll post mine sometime. But imageshack isn't behaving so I can't right now.

I think I'll be sticking with linux, I spent far too long on CS:S and I really need to get away from that game.

Um, you know you can play CS:S in Linux right?

Not much of a CS fan, but CS, HL2 and steam run great with cedega.

But you have to pay for cadega don't you? I've found an article on how to get it run using WINE once. I got half way through and then sutff happened in life so I had no time.

You can compile Cedega from CVS, it lacks safedisc and other cd copyright protections but it works FINE with Steam.

@ Mindburnt, I'll edit this post with link info in a bit. It's on deviantart, if I can't find it I'll upload it.

@ aka5ha, It's an option in ubuntu, right click on the bar, properties, then use 'solid colour' but move tranparency to full so the solid colour doesn't show up.

edit: mindburnt I'll pm you with a link to it as I've edited it so it didn't have the copyright on and I can't find it on deviantart again.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By [deXter] · Posted

      I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.

      Watch Louis Rossmann's recent experience on YouTube about trying to get a warranty replacement from Samsung. It's crazy.
    • Nearly half of American adults now use AI, but concerns are also growing

      By ad47uk · Posted

      That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.

      They use FREE AI. They aren't paying for this meme-generating slopware...
