@userpig А почему вам не нравится Мамдани?

[RPCS3 @rpcs3]

Many tech-illiterate people have been incorrectly bashing on Minecraft PC's new RTX 2060 and RX 5600 XT's GPU recommendations.

We have the exact same GPU recommendations at RPCS3. Why? Because they're the oldest entry-level GPUs with active driver support.

You hit a driver bug and need support from the vendor? These are the oldest architectures they will ship a fix for. Want to optionally use new API features/extensions for increased performance or new graphical features? Need drivers that support them.

Mojang's decision to move to a Vulkan render, like all modern console emulators, comes late but is completely correct.

People complain about developers not wanting to optimise their application/game, but this change is exactly about that.

Using Vulkan allows them to push previous optimisation limits to optimise Minecraft's renderer even further. Vulkan moves a lot of the optimisation burden from the drivers to the application/game. That's due to the low-level nature of the API and the amount of features and extensions it has. This is especially good for cases where the OpenGL driver is of very poor quality, such as on Intel GPUs and mobile platforms.

Contrary to OpenGL, which is a finished and stagnated higher-level API, Vulkan is a lower-level, more complex API with very active driver development, which sometimes introduces driver issues. We know firsthand how important driver support is: we've already reported many driver bugs to different vendors that have been fixed, some that we couldn't workaround.

So, does that mean you need a GPU that powerful or that recent to run new versions of Minecraft PC now? No. You can use older and/or weaker GPUs that support Vulkan 1.3 such as a GTX 950 or a RX 460. It's just not recommended, as you might miss out on new optional optimisations or fixes that need newer drivers, it's as simple as that. Recommended requirements are not minimum requirements.

Welcome to the @VulkanAPI, @Minecraft.

@Grumpy_Nellis @Acyn I am not a fan of it either tbh.

[🌼Alex🌼 @DevilsPepper]

@Grumpy_Nellis @Acyn Why are you so angry when someone tries to engage with you? I didn't demean you in any way.
Calling it a planned economy seems to go a bit far, they still depend on the market economy to calculate the 30% off.
Still, you have to admit that the 2 policues are kind of similar.

[🌼Alex🌼 @DevilsPepper]

@nicolassical @Grumpy_Nellis @Acyn I am not a fan of this new program either, I think 30% is ridiculous. Personally I thought it would just be a food desert band-aid with at cost prices.

@spanky7653941 @AP That's just the policies of a typical left wing democrat, not Platner specifically. Mamdani has the same policies. And those policies are the rason Platner's campaign resonated with people.
Jackson, as far as we know, is not a rapist, so please be careful with your words.

[🌼Alex🌼 @DevilsPepper]

@olroxy @Acyn The New York budget is much better balanced under Mamdani than under the previous mayor, and it's quite a political miracle because he inherited a disastrous budget from the previous administration.

Trump released documents that confirm Russia tried to interfere in the 2020 election to hurt Biden. It says Russia tried to "orchestrate a high-profile corruption scandal" and push narratives about "voter fraud resulting from mail-in balloting"

@FellaBoston @Tendar Not to mention the fact that due to this isolation of society, most of them are brainwashed to think absolutely insane things like Ukraine attacking Russia first and wanting to seize its non-disputed territory, or that the entirety of Ukrainian army are black super soldiers.

[🌼Alex🌼 @DevilsPepper]

@FellaBoston @Tendar How do you organize that exactly in an environment when social media are either gov owned and will snitch on you or blocked? And even those who are able to get blocking resistant VPN will face the reality of the gov just shutting internet down like in Iran.
