It's mostly because AVX-512 doesn't get used too well by compilers even today.

However, what makes this impressive for me is that it is x86 after all. ARM is way easier to write assembly for.

Absolute madness. I cringe at the thought of making modern x86 asm code.

Great work!

Anti cheat is like DRM. It's a waiting game more than it is about actual direct protection.

You could say that this isn't very alarming

I need to remind some people here who don't seem to understand something.

Forks may be dead and development may not be as fast as the original.

However - you must think about the future and not the situation right now. Yuzu and Ryujinx sources will be invaluable information for people making emulators later down the line.

It's a matter of when and not if someone picks it up again.

Oh you mean Android Studio automagically "updating" your versions so that your build breaks and you spent 3 hours figuring out what just happened without you even touching anything?

Why is there Star Trek in the embed lmao

It's just their ego showing through.

It basically now comes down to the current devs depending on new Rust devs for anything that interacts with Rust code.

They could just work together with Rust devs to solve any issues (API for example).

But their ego doesn't allow for it. They want to do everything by themselves because that's how it always was (up until now).

Sure, you could say it's more efficient to work on things alone for some people, and I'd agree here, but realistically that's not going to matter because the most interactivity that exists (at the moment) between Rust and C in Linux is... the API. Something that they touch up on once in a while. Once it's solid enough, they don't have to touch it anymore at all.

This is a completely new challenge that the Linux devs are facing now after a new language has been introduced. It was tried before, but now it's been approved. The only person they should be mad at is Linus, not the Rust devs.

Gee, what else is new?

It's specifically about the efficiency of the usage. If it's not used effectively, then it really is a waste.

And we all know how efficient the Web is nowadays...
