I've just lined up another interview for us on the NeowinCast Gamers edition (yes we are still doing it, however it'll just be me for a bit it seems, reviewing several games) and I come to you my fellow Neowin members for some questions.

One interview will be with Ritual Entertainment, discussing their upcoming Sin Episode 1 release and future releases on Valve's Steam. Feel free to post any questions you may have for them on Sin Episode 1, future episodes of the series, Sin 1 being rereleased on Steam, and anything else you may want to ask Ritual.

Another interview will be with NCSoft on Auto Assault. I'll be interviewing Richard Dekkard, the man who did all the sounds and music in the game. Again, feel free to post any questions about the game, though I'm not sure how deep he will be involved in day to day development of course to answer seriously hardcore questions. General stuff, about the music, game, add ons, how he did what etc are fine. But anything you guys submit is good as well.

So there you have it, I need your help guys, let's get those questions going! Both interviews will be conducted sometime next week (hopefully). And NeowinCast Gamers will return shortly in a few days with my review on Auto Assault and Red Orchestra.

Please note, as with our Bethesda interview, I cannot promise that your questions will in fact be answered. I will submit them to the person who I will interview, but it is up to them to either answer or not.

I will be submitting any questions I get either today Monday, or tomorrow. Of course I've gotten zero questions so far. Surprising really.

There will be a main page news post about it later today as well, maybe more people will see it?

Right now I don't have any interview lined up with the Tripwire team for Red Orchestra. Just my review. As for how big the games are, well that's subjective I think. Auto Assault is an MMORPG, and if you get any PC Gaming mags, go to any PC Gaming websites, or most other gaming sites like Gamespy etc, it's been pimped for weeks now. SiN Episodes, well millions of gamers use Steam and see the advertising for it on there.

    • Fastfetch 2.64 released bringing new logos and other improvements by David Uzondu Fastfetch, the popular command-line system information tool that developers created as a fast alternative to the classic Neofetch utility, has updated its codebase to version 2.64, bringing experimental scripting power, streamlined compilation options, a smarter logo renderer, and Codec module support. As noted earlier, Fastfetch can now detect hardware-accelerated video codecs across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android through this new Codec module. On Linux and BSD, the utility uses VA-API by default, with a fallback to VDPAU on Nvidia hardware if compiled with libva and libvdpau. Windows users get D3D12VA on Windows 11 or D3D11VA with Media Foundation Transforms on older systems, while macOS relies on VideoToolbox and Android utilizes AMediaCodec. You can manually toggle Vulkan Video via the config file, and the program will report both encoders and decoders unless configured otherwise. Logo support for Quasar, Origami, Origami_small, NixOS2, and BerserkArch also landed in this release. BerserkArch, if you have never heard of it, is a specialized Arch Linux derivative that targets security researchers and power users. This distro comes with an offensive security tool manager, simply called berserk, which allows users to install complex hacking toolkits with single terminal commands. Moving on, Fastfetch now has experimental scripting options for custom formats using Lua or QuickJS. The Lua integration supports versions 5.3 through 5.5, sharing a single interpreter instance across all modules so you can store variables globally. T Alternatively, if you prefer JavaScript, you can use QuickJS-ng version 0.15.0 or newer to evaluate your custom formats with the qjs: prefix. Other changes that version 2.64 brings include native CMake compilation flags to disable specific modules to shrink the final binary size. Users can delete unwanted ASCII logo files directly from the source directory before building to save additional space. The format engine now boasts ANSI-escape awareness, meaning you can center text with the new vertical bar specifier without breaking colored outputs. Haiku users receive preliminary support for boot manager, window manager theme, screen brightness, and other basic properties. Finally, the Linux edition now extracts desktop wallpaper and theme details from the modern COSMIC desktop environment.
    • That's a good number until the game you want to play is not in that list. 
    • So, the logo means No ducking AI?
    • For sure, humanity us highly unlikely to survive the helium flash. Even if we have colonized moons in the outer planets by then, that is such a monumental change in heat output, coupled with the destruction of Earth, it's unlikely we could be fully prepared for changes of that scale.
