oh hell yea its made in the USA

2021-01-20 02:57:03 UTC  

So looking at Super Tux Kart

2021-01-20 02:57:54 UTC  

in main we can see where the pop up for the driver is:
`if (UserConfigParams::m_old_driver_popup)
{
#ifdef USE_GLES2
irr::core::stringw version = "OpenGL ES 3.0";
#else
irr::core::stringw version = "OpenGL 3.3";
#endif
MessageDialog *dialog = new MessageDialog(_(
"Your graphics driver appears to be very old. Please "
"check if an update is available. SuperTuxKart "
"recommends a driver supporting %s or better. The game "
"will likely still run, but in a reduced-graphics mode.",
version), /*from queue*/ true);
GUIEngine::DialogQueue::get()->pushDialog(dialog);
}
#endif`

And these are the driver versions defined in their rules xml

2021-01-20 03:00:54 UTC  

`<card contains="Mesa" os="linux" version="<10.3" disable="BufferStorage"/>
<card contains="Mesa" os="linux" version="<10.3" disable="DriverRecentEnough"/>
<card contains="Mesa" os="linux" version="<11.2" disable="GeometryShader"/>
<card contains="Mesa" os="linux" version="<11.2" disable="TextureCompressionS3TC"/>`

2021-01-20 03:11:36 UTC  

so its either because their driver isn't Mesa, or it only implements openGL ES 2?

2021-01-20 03:19:04 UTC  

I think it's because it's opengl es2

2021-01-20 03:19:45 UTC  

That driverRecentEnough line was added in 2015 so the driver implementation was old 6 years ago

2021-01-20 03:20:01 UTC  

my laptop is opengl 3.3 and it throws no errors when i played it on manjaro

2021-01-20 03:23:00 UTC

2021-01-20 03:23:43 UTC  

HD 3000, intel

i just recently upgraded to it from a Pentium 4 w ATI Radeon 7000m laptop XD

2021-01-20 03:24:13 UTC  

Here is the full Graphics restrictions xml

2021-01-20 03:24:48 UTC  

so it just disable 10bitnormalization on linux?

2021-01-20 03:25:01 UTC  

since it would be sandy bridge

2021-01-20 03:34:55 UTC  

It appears if your gpu reads as being Sandybridge and the driver is less than 17.4 it would disable 10bitnormalization

2021-01-20 04:23:23 UTC  

Will Tyler join minds.com? It's a social media alternative. Tim Poole was talking about it the other night

2021-01-20 04:26:42 UTC  

What is Minds.com like?

2021-01-20 04:40:26 UTC  

im going to look into it

2021-01-20 04:41:21 UTC  

lik a facebook alternative basically?

2021-01-20 04:42:06 UTC  

It's kind of like a facebook/Instagram alternative based off of blockchain

2021-01-20 04:43:57 UTC  

Their code of how everything works is open source for transparency and accountability so normal people can see how their algorithms work and arent hidden like facebook or google

2021-01-20 04:44:52 UTC  

One of their values is that the content policy is based on the 1st amendment

2021-01-20 07:23:52 UTC  

just use MAGA-Chat

2021-01-20 07:51:59 UTC  

Can anyone recommend a good server rack? Need one that is small and silent.

2021-01-20 12:52:38 UTC  

Damn running Discord on a Ubuntu VM on a Server connected through RDP is kind laggy

2021-01-20 12:52:40 UTC  

shit

2021-01-20 14:33:49 UTC  

I do that all the time it ain’t laggy for me

2021-01-20 14:34:01 UTC  

Well I do text chat only not voice

2021-01-20 15:10:14 UTC  

I'll do you one better

2021-01-20 15:10:55 UTC  

Windows host -> Ubuntu VM -> RDP to windows box 60 miles away -> ubuntu vm -> discord

I now have 6 optiplex 9010's upgrading them one at a time (pc parts are expensive) 32gb of ddr3 ram 1tb ssd 1tb hdd 1050ti

2021-01-20 17:15:24 UTC  

What are you going to do with them?

2021-01-20 17:32:03 UTC  

I have no idea

2021-01-20 17:32:22 UTC  

Probably just use them as test PC's

2021-01-20 17:44:27 UTC  

Well if that's what you wanna do

2021-01-20 17:44:48 UTC  

but if you saved all the money you would use to upgrade ach one

2021-01-20 17:44:58 UTC  

you could build a pretty nice rig

2021-01-20 18:09:03 UTC  

Holup. Fuck. Wait that's illegal.
