VKD3D-Proton Developer Criticizes Forza Horizon 6's Coding for Linux Issues

Hans-Kristian Arntzen, the developer behind VKD3D-Proton, has criticized the coding of Forza Horizon 6, particularly its performance on Linux. The software, which translates Direct3D 12 to Vulkan for Linux compatibility, has encountered significant issues with the game, including rendering glitches and crashes. These problems are attributed to the game's resource allocation processes, which are not optimized for Linux. Nvidia is aware of these issues and plans to release a fix in an upcoming driver update.

Open-Source Project Enhances Low-Latency Gaming for AMD and Intel GPUs on Linux

A new open-source project, low_latency_layer, has been developed to enhance low-latency gaming for AMD and Intel GPUs on Linux. This project, created by developer Nicolas James, is an implicit Vulkan layer that enables AMD Anti-Lag 2 and NVIDIA Reflex 2 to function in a hardware-agnostic manner. This allows both AMD and Intel graphics cards to benefit from these technologies, which were previously limited to specific hardware. The project aims to provide performance similar to or better than proprietary Windows implementations. It supports Steam Play (Proton) gaming on Linux and is open-source under an MIT license.

President Trump Accused of Profiting from Stock Trades Linked to Administration Decisions

President Trump Accused of Profiting from Stock Trades Linked to Administration Decisions

President Trump has been accused of engaging in stock trading activities that coincide with favorable actions by his administration towards certain companies. According to a report, Trump purchased up to $1 million in Nvidia stock shortly before the company was allowed to sell advanced computer chips to China. Similarly, he bought as much as $100,000 in AMD stock before it received similar permissions. Additionally, Trump invested up to $150,000 in Palantir stock weeks before the company secured a contract with the Department of Homeland Security. These actions have raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest, as Trump’s financial activities appear to benefit from his administration's decisions. The Trump Organization claims that the management of Trump's stock portfolio is handled externally, and neither Trump nor his family is involved in the investment decisions.
