Quoting: XpanderPeople still pre-order games?Refunds for preorders can be made after the product is available, the 2 week after purchase / 2 hour playtime rule works a bit differently for preorders.
That's quite a shame tbh to give money without having a product for couple of months. You will not be able to refund then afaik.

Surely someone recalls the details but short story is OBS is not at fault here

Quoting: syylkProper Wayland support when? (Especially wrt shortcuts.)No shortcuts is (was?) a Wayland limitation, there was no API for OBS to capture shortcuts lol. I recall an announcement of a new, KDE Plasma only API for shortcut support, OBS could use that if / when it becomes available.

Windows compatibility layer Wine 11 arrives bringing masses of improvements to Linux

FYI, I tried crossover almost a year ago so my info may have fallen out of date.
Crossover downloads the installer of Office 365, the constantly updating variant of Office. The installer is executed in a 32 bit Wine prefix with Windows version set to Win7. The installer detects this and downloads an old version of Office 365 with fewer components ie. no OneDrive. Using a 64 bit prefix or Windows version Win10 immediately crashes the installer.
There may have been improvements in the last 1 year & few months so don't quote me on this info lol.

Quoting: scaineI always find the disconnect between enterprise/management and the general public on GenAI absolutely amazing.I'm terribly confused by the disconnect between online realms (Gol, discord, reddit, you name it) and real life interactions. People I talk to take chatbots as a given and use them all the time. I use chatbots not so often (and when I do, mostly for research, it is just so good at that) because the few times I used them I noticed mistakes.

@TheSHEEEP the problem with the Clown emote was that people (clowns, dare I say) deliberately wrote idiotic posts with the intention of receiving clown reactions and/or Steam points. So with the lack of clown reaction, you may start seeing fewer idiotic posts.

What is the purpose of the AI Studio, even? Is this announced anywhere?
(after clicking some links)
hmm they have 4 job listings:
* AI Specialist (image generation)
* Reinforcement Learning Engineer (Game Automatic Play Balance Optimization)
* Language Model Engineer
* Potential Diffusion Model Engineer
Cygames Al Studio Inc.
My interpretation is that they are trying to create in house machine learning and generative AI tools like how large studios have their in house engines. Time will tell.

The installed version of Office is made sometime in 2022 for Windows 7 and is 32 bit. It doesn't receive updates.
Using vanilla wine will not work, Crossover's wine has patches related to Office's licensing that vanilla wine lacks, so the app doesn't work on vanilla wine.

Quoting: LoudTechieYou run MS365 through Wine.It is fairly easy with Crossover. Crossover installs an older version of Office 365, applies some registry edits so the app runs and installs fonts. Then you log in with your MS account and register the product. If you have no license or choose to not sign in, a 5 day free trial starts.
That's how one recognizes a master of their craft.
