It seems like a dismissive statement, but Tesla is the embodiment of this era’s “hype” investing. So many players have it leveraged like a big casino game, and the end result is (mostly) that non professional or “slow” investors (like you, or your retirement fund) get screwed over.
Yeah, it’s like night and day. btrfs and ext4 clog up and stall on the PNG workload, it’s why I switched in the first place.
This is on a PCIe ssd though. On an HDD or maybe a big SATA drive, features probably win out over the overhead.
Oh thanks for this.
Yeah I meant no harm :P
Spacebattles is still alive.
Nexusmods “forums” and pages still have some social activity.
TBH it’s pretty barren. I noticed that even comment sections are drying up.
IDK what they mean by better ssd I/O performance, btrfs was the worst FS I tested for some heavy SSD workloads (like writing thousands of little pngs in short time, file searches, merging huge weights with some paging)…
The features are fantastic, especially for HDDs, but it’s an inherently high overhead FS.
ext4 was also bad. F2FS and XFS are great, and I’ve stuck with F2FS for now.
Last I checked its still missing some gameplay features JE has, but generally tries to keep parity with JE, yeah.
But yeah, they regularly used to screw modders up redoing internals to make things dynamic instead of hard coded and refraction tons and tons of stuff.
This was always controversial because the ostensible reasons, optimization and future features, seemed to pale in comparison to what random modders were doing hacking at the code. And Minecraft JE, feature wise, hasn’t changed that much.
The minecraft mod scene you are describing is built around Java and changing Java code within the game, there is no way around that.
Bedrock already has a modding API of sorts.
Sodium, Optifine and such are all living testaments that some random coder can run circles around Mojang in their free time.
I mean, I love mojang, but what you are asking for is basically not possible.
Ah, right.
Point still stands though. JE development has been extremely conservative and cautious.
Would it be possible to ensure mod compatibility tho?
No. That’s the whole point of Java, it’s quite hackable.
It doesn’t need a rewrite TBH, it just needs a little optimization. Heck, a few performance critical components can be written in C++ or whatever within the Java code.
Don’t even joke about this. FOSS development is fundamentally pretty “woke,” see: https://numpy.org/devdocs/dev/governance/governance.html#consensus-based-decision-making-by-the-community
And they linked: https://producingoss.com/en/producingoss.html#social-infrastructure
A problem is volunteers and critical mass.
Open source “hacks” need a big pool of people who want something to seed a few brilliant souls to develop it in their free time. It has to be at least proportional to the problem.
This kinda makes sense for robot vacuums: a lot of people have them, and the cloud service is annoying, simpler, and not life critical.
Teslas are a whole different deal. They are very expensive, and fewer people own them. Replicating even part of the cloud API calls is a completely different scope. The pool of Tesla owners willing to dedicate their time to that is just… smaller.
Also, I think buying a Tesla, for many, was a vote of implicit trust in the company and its software. It’s harder for someone cynical of its cloud dependence to end up with an entire luxury automobile.
TBH, Minecraft development has always been extremely conservative. Even basic “hard” features like a modding API, cubic chunks, LoDs or an optimized renderer were too extensive to do.
Bedrock is basically Microsoft sicking a whole team onto a C++ rewrite for their business purposes, not Mojang’s core devs deciding to do it.
This is not bad, per se. Their careful, slow direction stopped JE from getting enshittified, bloated, buggy, things like that. But it’s been kinda frustrating, too, given Minecraft’s enormous user base.
In much of the public’s eye, it is a culture war. That’s what determined their vote and support.
The whole point of eroding civil rights is to help billionaires.
Always has been.
I’m at the point where printers, bad WiFi, local file sharing/casting, crash recovery, GPU compute, even some driver issues, stuff like that just works in Linux (CachyOS specifically), but doesn’t in Windows.
Windows is getting progressively worse.
I still dual boot a very-stripped Windows for games, HDR stuff, and anything that requires a weird driver (like phone tethering), but man, Microsoft just keeps removing or hiding things I use to make Windows sorta functional.
Ahh. I missed dead space, but that seems right.
I know that part, but is the screenshot from a game or something?
Forgive me, what’s the meme referencing?
10% is still a wild fluctuation for a company with the market cap of Tesla. In this case, I think its not “that” deceptive, as zero is not usually a reference in this case.
