holy crap, why does Steam need 750MB of RAM |
|
01:18
🔗
|
Aranje |
have you never used steam on windows? |
|
01:18
🔗
|
Aranje |
that's pretty decent ram usage |
|
01:25
🔗
|
BlueMax |
Steam's using 60MB of RAM for me |
|
01:26
🔗
|
joepie91 |
Aranje: I have not, no |
|
01:27
🔗
|
joepie91 |
and after a restart it magically went down to like 140MB |
|
01:27
🔗
|
joepie91 |
this is ridiculous |
|
01:27
🔗
|
joepie91 |
it uses even more than Desura... I did not think that was possible.. |
|
01:27
🔗
|
Aranje |
It's been lighter and more stable since they deployed it on linux (on windows, too) :P |
|
01:28
🔗
|
Aranje |
It used to be the biggest piece of shit... but mostly just the most tolerable piece of shit |
|
01:28
🔗
|
joepie91 |
wasn't there a similar thing with the games, heh |
|
01:28
🔗
|
joepie91 |
"oh, huh, switching to opengl made our games run faster on Windows as well, hm" |
|
01:28
🔗
|
Aranje |
Yeah I always wonder what that is |
|
01:28
🔗
|
joepie91 |
"we did noooot expect that" |
|
01:28
🔗
|
Aranje |
simpler API's maybe |
|
01:28
🔗
|
Aranje |
and then you can retool everything to use less calls etc |
|
01:29
🔗
|
joepie91 |
Aranje: mostly, DirectX is probably just an inefficient piece of shit |
|
01:29
🔗
|
Aranje |
hey look, we stopped leaking ram and calling the same render 7 times |
|
01:29
🔗
|
joepie91 |
would fit the general trend of Microsoft stuff |
|
01:29
🔗
|
joepie91 |
so even with practically 0 knowledge of DirectX, I feel fairly safe stating that |
|
01:29
🔗
|
Aranje |
I'd imagine with the breadth of the games industry somebody would work with MS to make it suck less |
|
01:29
🔗
|
Aranje |
but that isn't always true |
|
01:30
🔗
|
Aranje |
:/ |
|
01:30
🔗
|
Aranje |
I mean shit, if I were EA I'd be doing exactly that |
|
01:30
🔗
|
joepie91 |
wishful thinking, wishful thinking.. |
|
01:30
🔗
|
joepie91 |
and lol, EA |
|
01:30
🔗
|
Aranje |
sure, but they're the big name |
|
01:30
🔗
|
joepie91 |
they only seem interested in finding more ways to annoy paying customers |
|
01:30
🔗
|
Aranje |
well yeah there's a few things I'd change if I was running EA :P |
|
01:31
🔗
|
joepie91 |
heh, just a few? |
|
01:31

joepie91 |

|
01:32
🔗
|
joepie91 |
I'm currently reading through the python gtk docs |
|
01:32
🔗
|
Aranje |
the first would actually to find the first compelling game that came across my desk and buy the studio making it outright |
|
01:32
🔗
|
joepie91 |
:D |
|
01:32
🔗
|
joepie91 |
it's probably one of the few Python libraries that makes me feel all fuzzy inside, knowing that I'm going to do fun things with it |
|
01:32
🔗
|
Aranje |
and then give them 10x their current budget and tell them to rewrite the game |
|
01:32
🔗
|
joepie91 |
probably more because of GTK than because of gobject, but still |
|
01:32

01:32
🔗
|
Aranje |
oh? |
|
01:33
🔗
|
joepie91 |
the problem is that if EA acquires a studio, there are two certainties: |
|
01:33
🔗
|
joepie91 |
1. they are good at game development |
|
01:33
🔗
|
Aranje |
I haven't seen a new compelling game come out of EA in years |
|
01:33
🔗
|
joepie91 |
2. within approximately 2 years, they will suck at game development |
|
01:33
🔗
|

If I ran EA the first thing I would do is stop all current and future projects to take the time to remove drm from all previous games and then sell them all on sale |

Phenomic is kind of awesome, but since EA has them, they've only made things that sound great in theory but lack in execution |
|
01:33

I have not actually bought anything from them for the simple reason that they don't sell Linux games (yet) |

The Act contains changes to UK copyright law which permit the commercial exploitation of images where information identifying the owner is missing, so-called "orphan works", by placing the work into what's known as "extended collective licensing" schemes. Since most digital images on the internet today are orphans - the metadata is missing or has been stripped by a large organisation - millions of photographs and illustrations are swept |

DFJustin |
that sounds like a welcome reform actually, one of the big problems with copyright post-berne convention is that everything is automatically copyrighted even if it wasn't intended to be |
|
17:03
🔗
|
DFJustin |
and so archives avoid working with and preserving 20th century photographs because of copyright paranoia |
|
17:05
🔗
|
joepie91 |
DFJustin: it is not a welcome reform whatsoever |
|
17:05
🔗
|
joepie91 |
for these reasons: |
|
17:06
🔗
|
joepie91 |
1. if the strong implication in the article that this only applies to commercial usage is correct (which it appears to be, as it's an economic act), that means that this kind of "just use it" usage is restricted to just commercial entities |
|
17:06
🔗
|
joepie91 |
and I hope I won't have to explain why that is bad... |
|
17:06
🔗
|
joepie91 |
2. it's unclear what exactly is a 'diligent search', and it seems there are more unclear things |
|
17:06
🔗
|
joepie91 |
which means that the only thing this act brings is uncertainty, and a new 'gray area' |
|
17:07
🔗
|
joepie91 |
and who have the ability to jump into a gray area and lawyer themselves out of it? exactly, big corporations |
|
17:07
🔗
|
joepie91 |
for such an act to benefit everyone, there should not be a restriction on commercial usage alone, and the authorship part should be something objective like "if no author is explicitly listed" |
|
17:08
🔗
|
joepie91 |
in its current form, the only entities that it *really* benefits, are large corporations |
|
17:08
🔗
|
DFJustin |
I dunno diligence is a standard legal concept, if you are a pro photographer you can put your shit in various well-known repositories where any diligent searcher would find them |
|
17:08
🔗
|
joepie91 |
(and really, if we're on the topic of copyright disregard anyway, why not just get it over with, and throw copyright out of the window altogether?) |

🔗
|
joepie91 |
to put it in said repository |
|
17:09
🔗
|
joepie91 |
and aside from that, the problem is that diligence is not explicitly defined |
