Most of the CPU time spent by game is not spent in the main binary file, but in system libraries: 3D graphics (via DIrect3D, OpenGL, or Vulkan), physics simulation library, etc. According to the article, Fex would emulate the amd64 instruction set for a while, but also translate the library calls, which allows the use of native Arm libraries, with only a thin translation layer in between, not really different from what you need to call c library from a python code.

Gabe Newell is 63 years old, he can still have many years to live, but he won't stay president of Steam forever. I fear that when he'll step down, the enshittification will begin.

All the ones I've tried on Steam, officially supported or not, work perfectly fine on Linux. The only exception, being a few (but also popular) comptetitive multiplayer games that included kernel-level "anticheat".

People who think this is a good idea obviously live alone and work in an individual sealed office. Otherwise they'll know that as soon as you start talking on your own, people around will either ask you what's up, or get really worried about your mental health.

Choral molecules can react differently with left and right variants of other chiral molecules. This does not mean they do not react at all with the left version.

What a surprise, who could have guessed?

In theory, but in practice I found that its performances are closer to that of the backing HDD than the SSD. It is similar for the bcache kernel module to be fair. Using ZFS on HDD with L2ARC and LOG on SSD is comically slow. The only thing I found to give a real performance improvement is LVM cache, which is as fast as SSD as long as there is room on the SSD.

"the world of mousing and keyboarding around will feel as alien as it does to Gen Z [using] MS-DOS"

I'm pretty sure Bill Gates wrote more or less the same thing in his 1995 book "The Road Ahead". He was wrong then, I'm not confident they are right now.

Chips from Taiwan are subjected to whatever tariff there is on chips from Taiwan. Chips made in Arizona have no tariff, but they may have to pay tariffs to buy materials and equipment. Which may turn out to be higher if the tariff is chosen by a rambling psychopath
