Would it be better performance wise in the future to avoid translating SPIR-V into NIR as an intermediate step?

For some parts of DX11 progress, check this: https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.g...d3d11/device.c

Where do they mention Linux on their campaign page?

How can one install Neon in Debian?

Steam videos work fine without Flash, using HTML5....

What's "protected playback"? Sounds like DRM garbage to me.

Yes, it's useless in the browser. It's far form useless as a general feature, to sell lossless music....

[shmerl]

What's the reason for using NIR, instead of translating SPIR-V directly into lower representations?

[shmerl]

Ah, that's great....
