In fairness, we will need every advantage we can get to conquer Greenland.
Interesting! I had not even realized that this was a problem, though it makes sense now after your description. How realistically feasible is this type of approach, though, given that the manufactures can always just ignore the kernel's request to reprogram them and continue to access the bus and memory directly?
In that case, I clearly stand corrected! Thank you for the reply.
Huh, that was not my understanding at the time, but if so then I obviously stand corrected! Thank you for the clarification.
What exactly does the statement that Linux does not already "embrace the whole hardware" mean?
The biggest problem with Stadia was not the technical implementation but the business model: you had to pay for both a subscription to use the service and additionally a license to play particular games on the service (though there were also some free games). And of all the companies to even attempt such a business model, it is harder to think of a company that had the least chance of making it work than Google because almost no one believed that the licenses they paid for would be good for anything in a couple of years. In fairness, Google did refund these purchases when it shut down Stadia, and this was absolutely the right call, but it is also befuddling because, if they had been planning on doing this anyway, they could have told everyone at the beginning and made people a lot less wary of spending money on Stadia!
Edit: The above was my understanding at the time, but the responses below, which I appreciate, would seem to indicate that this understanding was incorrect.
Thus demonstrating that when you combine XML and C++, you truly get the best of both worlds!
In fairness, this game uses fabulous pixel art! Hardly any games do that.
But it wasn't monochrome and depressing!
I don't know; their comment seemed pretty much the same throughout...
...for they shall be forced to use Visual Basic.
