[00:59:14] zer0s End3r: just saw you post that article about wine improvements

[00:59:16] zer0s super impressive

[00:59:23] zer0s may return back to pc gaming

[00:59:35] zer0s we just need those improvements to trickle down to proton

[01:00:01] zer0s :)

[01:00:19] zer0s I don't think it'll be trivial, but it would be amazing if they see big gains

[01:01:13] zer0s I haven't read it yet, will look into it

[01:01:20] zer0s curious what the actual optimizations were

[01:02:36] zer0s lel

[01:03:01] zer0s glitchy, what were the big changes to wine that enabled large performance gains most recently?

[01:03:53] zer0s glitchy: can you talk more about eventfd and the specific changes?

[01:07:48] zer0s glitchy: so the eventfd updates were basically making it so win32 isn't spamming eventfd?

[01:08:48] zer0s I guess that makes sense

[01:10:48] zer0s glitchy: it almost sounds like the performance fixes enable performance that is better on linux than windows now

[01:12:57] zer0s Interesting that we're getting better than native performance in some spots

[01:13:24] zer0s I get the win bloat due to decades of compatibility layers, but still impressive

[01:14:04] zer0s I'm guessing this makes the steamdeck that much more valuable now

[01:19:24] zer0s doesn't matter, steam is having trouble stocking the damn things

[01:20:32] zer0s ugh

[01:20:50] zer0s I hate kids

[01:21:21] zer0s general_kornwallace: just checked

[01:21:23] zer0s its gone

[01:21:24] zer0s lol

[01:21:58] zer0s its not looking great

[01:22:10] zer0s they keep pushing back the release date due to supply issues

[01:22:30] zer0s steam machine looked nice

[01:23:25] zer0s agreed, even if they build factories now, getting a functional factory takes a while

[01:23:42] zer0s ^

[01:23:51] zer0s its even worse for energy plants

[01:24:00] zer0s nuclear power takes 20-30 years

[01:24:16] zer0s yeah, apparently that's how they're getting around it

[01:24:28] zer0s I'm sure they'll legislate it so that its impossible to scale lol

[01:24:46] zer0s general_kornwallace: I downgraded my server lol

[01:24:55] zer0s went from 96gb ->32gb

[01:25:16] zer0s I was like, I know zfs loves ram, but the cache isn't worth it

[01:25:29] zer0s ddr4 lol

[01:25:58] zer0s I was over here waiting for ddr6 and wider buses

[01:26:22] zer0s that's smart

[01:26:29] zer0s End3r: you actually bought at the perfect time

[01:26:36] zer0s those mini pcs are 2x now

[01:26:57] zer0s general_kornwallace: I made sure to avoid synology like the plague

[01:27:19] zer0s won't forgive them for that prorprietary bullshit

[01:27:28] zer0s None

[01:27:49] zer0s End3r: not a bad little rig

[01:27:53] zer0s respect it

[01:28:02] zer0s eh you're fine

[01:28:11] zer0s i'm talking to you from a computer with 512mb of ram

[01:28:42] zer0s general_kornwallace: lmao

[01:28:58] zer0s tbf, I'm just running tty+tmux so it runs like a champ

[01:29:10] zer0s no GUI

[01:29:31] zer0s if I put a GUI on this thing, it would start swapping like a bitch

[01:30:28] zer0s no, it uses 250mb/512mb at any given time. its perfect for most shit

[01:31:39] zer0s nope

[01:31:54] zer0s general_kornwallace: I just use text based surfing

[01:32:01] zer0s lynx. end of story

[01:32:11] zer0s any site that doesn't support text mode, I don't visit

[01:32:11] zer0s lol

[01:32:57] zer0s End3r: weird

[01:33:32] zer0s I want to know wtf happened to Fuchsia

[01:34:36] zer0s glitchy: what is the current progress on Google Fuchsia?

[01:35:14] zer0s oh interesting.

[01:35:31] zer0s Fuchsia is already in their devices

[01:36:33] zer0s End3r: are you talking about aluminium or fuchsia?

[01:36:43] zer0s ah

[01:36:59] zer0s glitchy: what is google's end game with aluminium and fuchsia?

[01:38:08] zer0s I didn't know it was Fuchsia based

[01:38:09] zer0s interesting
