Interesting. So there are limits to how far Linux goes with the overallocation trip. Well, I guess it's reasonable since unlike with malloc where the...

Except as mentioned in previous thread, compatibility contexts are more vague in specification than core ones so your games will break anyway since they...

Ooh, Dink Smallwood was a total classic <3

Ah, right. So in reality I was talking about notebooks too. OEM's aren't keeping their part of the bargain resulting in common driver issues and crashes....

What? Latest driver for Ryzen 2500U on Windows was from 10/09/2017 (version 22.19.655.1) based on my driver timestamps. That's slightly more than three...

I recallbridgman having mentioned they have spent long long time talking the industry to use core profiles and that there would have been some success....

Seems the situation is better than for Windows APU users. They were scoped out of primary drivers so you get really scarce updates...

Wow, so after this change the limitation that /boot cannot be on a Btrfs partition can possibly be lifted since Grub2 already supported booting from Btrfs...

How about starting to link to kernel bugzilla in this kind of posts?...

You mean the project name is a little odd...

That memory usage difference is an interesting point though I don't believe it will have large performance impact on semi-modern machines where library...

SXS is horrifyingly fragile and Microsoft advices against using it for other things than their own. Flatpak runtimes are *far* less likely to end up corrupted...
