So I have been playing with FydeOs (ChromeOs based on Chromium) on my PC with the View of installing it on my old laptop. Then it dawned on me that I could create my own lightweight operating system with Linux. So, I downloaded a minimal Linux distribution, installed KDE Plasma (not the smallest, but most appealing) and installed a ChromeOs dark theme with floating panel. Like ChromeOs all of the apps are web apps, like Overleaf for typesetting, Office360 and Google Docs for office productivity and email, and a bunch of other apps like photopea, Sketchpad or jsPaint for graphics, Netflix for TV, Radio Garden for music, Internet Library etc, all accessible through Firefox with the same theme. It looks great, is lightening fast and uses minimal drive space, considering that the laptop only has a soldered 32GB ssd. You can't easily do that with Windows!

I've tried that. Couldn't figure out how to properly setup my NVIDIA GPU after 2 weeks, a lot of research. When back to Windows, it took me 5 hours to get everything running flawlessly 😢

The point that made me switch from Windows to Linux is the stability, the speed and the fact that after starting the PC, it just works. With Windows, it is never guaranteed to be able to work directly. I am the manager of a small business and I changed my habits to work with Ubuntu every day on PCs. 6 months of testing and full transition in September 2023. I save precious time because it just works. I also use Linux to play my games. Apart from COD or BF2042, 100% of the other games I play work with Steam or Lutris (some better than on Windows).

Great videos but I'd make them shorter

Congratulations on making the move to Linux! I've been on the Linux operating system since 2003 / '04! And I can honestly say?...it was the BEST MOVE I EVER MADE!....here;s hoping you never "jump ship" like so many other conte4nt creators do......the ones who do it JUST to make a video and gain clicks and money. ENjoy!!

What was keeping me on windows was World of Warcraft. Even though it is very playable on Linux, it's not great when you noticeably get frequent fps dips when doing high end raiding. I quit wow, so I quit windows.

Thanks for sharing your views.

Started with Linux way back in the days of Mandrake,Red Hat and SuSe Linux,moved to Linux as my only system back in early days of Windows 10,never looked back either.

Problem never was Linux itself, it was always the lacking of our main softwares on it.

linux is good because it doesn't force feed you spyware and advertizments

Linux is awesome

I was looking this up 5 minutes after you uploaded this thanks this saved my life

How about support for websocket or netsocket

If you do more raylib/c++ videos I might join(pay money)

Awesome Work Chris! Keep Going dude <3

You are a bot.

Quite helpful, thanks :) It would be interesting to also add variable line width, so you can have wide and narrow parts of the track.

Good f**king question!

If there are graphics card that handles the graphics, then we need to invent separate pieces of hardware such as feature cards to handle features, and optimization cards to handle optimizaton. ... I'm joking of course, but still a pretty neat video!

People who have money, are making games, not actual game companies

The video topic is interesting but because of your diction or maybe microphone it is hard to follow what you are saying.

I've been starting new games on "Hard/Hardest" because I noticed that "Normal" really just meant "streamlined" and it helped me get past that "games are boring now" feeling - a minor fix but a surprisingly easy one

Dark souls having "the simplest UI so you can't really get confused" is an absolutely wild statement. I remember when DS1 first came out and people needed video walkthroughs for how to equip a shield and for what the levelable stats meant.

HP ML350p with 256GB, 1200W dual power supplies, 2 dedicated 16 lane, one 16-8 lane for the NVLinked.. and the video cards are up to you as to speed and power consumption,, But the A5000s should do for the linked or A6000(s) in the 16 dedicated, lane 32 bus.. three vid cards will leave you absent for PCIe accelerator cards and high bandwidth connections.. like to your mass storage.. Oh, expect your internet provider to complain if your LLM has access to the Web... you may have to upgrade to a business plan. These programs are hard on SSDs, choose accordingly or you consumer NVME will be written to death in months, so have a big backup platter (HD) as least and backup often. Petabyte write rated drives.

very mature takes! You are different on the hate bandwagon online now

😊!

Old PC with 128-512gb ddr3 RAM + a lot pci-e slots + some cheap Nvidia P can lift heavy workload without issue. Also in a tight 1000€ budget.

Raylib will probably surpass pygame in popularity.

I loved it until I wanted to attempt to develop a basic 3d game

raylib is simple, fast and very easy to implement, litterally just one of the best graphic libraries, also works wonderfully in C so yea

Raylib is nice but for more serious projects I either use OpenGL directly or rarely SFML

raylib is great introduction if you want to get into openGL in my opinion it lets you more focus on the game itself without drowning you in lower level stuff so that once you get to opengl you can better focus on the inner details and behind the scenes work

Currently learning networking programming using raylib, and Rust™

yeah

I've been messing with raylib for the past week and was excited when I realized how easy it was to load and render a 3d model. But as soon as I tried to add lighting I hit a brick wall and couldn't do it. The basic lighting example program works but when I add my own model it won't light it. So I dug into the code and it appears no less complicated than doing it straight in opengl. Perhaps even moreso because raylib is automatically assigning uniforms and it's a huge pain in the ass to figure out what the hell is going on or what is going wrong.

Cos tsoading using it lol?

So its like a Util? well at that size its a framework i guess...

What I'd add to the library vs GUI engine is it really matters if you are working on the game solo, or if you need to collaborate with non-programmer artists. If you are collaborating with artists and level designers, the GUI is more for them than for you. Level designers need a "Halo Forge Mode," if you will.

Raylib is also good for statistical and simulation visualization when there is a lot of particles and nodes

I use Bevy and want to transition to just wgpu, ECS and my utils

I’m using Raylib-go and i love it. This framework gives you just the right amount of abstraction, so you have all of fundamental blocks of functionality for all basic aspects of the engine (that’s made very easy), yet you are not bound to the engine, you are free and productive

that comparison with game engines isn't very apt. yes obviously something like raylib is awesome for getting into game engine programming without building absolutely everything from scratch, but if you set out to make an actual *game*, you're going to end up reimplementing the same patterns and abstractions present in pretty much every game engine ever in some shape or form. it doesn't really mean anything that it's "more familiar" to a non-videogame programmer, because making any game that holds up to any sort of modern standard (not talking about AAA, this applies to anything that sells as a game on steam for at least a dollar, or something you see made for a 48 hour game jam) will require you to learn how to program a *game*, which is something very complex and deep, which programmers with experience in other fields might see as very alien. so in any case, what you'll be doing will be unfamiliar. a proper game engine (i.e. Godot) allows you to only need to get familiarized with some basic abstractions like scenes and nodes (which typically exist in other engines with names such as rooms and entities), but not have to deal with any of the heavy lifting that requires months if not years of study like collision, lighting, shading, rendering, optimization, and so on. the programming itself is exactly the same, thus the barrier of entry ends up being far lower than if you had to code your own game from scratch.

i have plenty of old servers..but the requirements have other hidden dependencies... such as avx2 or better. While avx2 hit intels cpus in 2012 with the haswell tech... the cpu in your server could predate avx2.

I think start citizen uses lumber yard

I just started learning go and I plan to use raylib for gui elements of programs and experiments more than I do games.

So yeah, but hella slowly

i wish the C bindings didn't clash with Windows API, preferably had some sort of optional rl_ prefix

I'm currently learning my way around both Crystal and Raylib by just coding a bit of the basics every day l- ike moving a 3 frame sprite on the x axis - and then gradually adding more features, or rewriting things I notice could be implemented in a better way, etc.. and it's genuinely been such a joy to work with. Plus the community not being centered around one single language means you can get more broad advice, get so much inspiration, and easily find something you like and translating it to whichever Raylib bindings you're working with as once you get used to it it's fairly easy to translate from one language to your preferred one. The examples in the github repo are phenomenal and easy to read, plus the cheat sheet and live demos via their website are a huge help. Plus the creator is equally, if not more-so, passionate about everyone's projects and their genuine gratitude and excitement for every new project using Raylib is infectious! I would not hesitate in recommending this amazing assest(s) to everyone and anyone!

I've had some limited exposure to SDL couple years back and it felt ancient. No wonder there is such demand for a simple unifying API with bindings for a lot of languages that's also not older than you. Where else are these people supposed to go?
