However, resizable BAR removes the size limitation so the CPU has access to all of a GPU’s memory, theoretically allowing for improved performance. This adjustment lets the CPU request much larger chunks of data from the GPU, which can improve performance in games that can benefit from this change."</p>

<p>No, the "postmarketOS" name came about to indicate that it's an OS to keep older devices working for longer (i.e. providing active support after the support from the manufacturer has ended).</p>

<p>> Biomass is zero carbon.<p>Not correct. Biomass includes burning wood from new growth forests. If the trees were kept in the ground they would be carbon sinks rather than carbon stores, therefore the overall effect is an increase in emissions. Furthermore, there's energy expended in prepping the wood (e.g. turning the trees into wood pellets ready to burn) and in transporting the wood to the biomass power station.</p>

<p>> but I won't be able to re-play the excellent version that I played through last year<p>Why not? The future of game preservation for games not distributed on disc is probably going to be based around hard disk images, with some kind of overlay filesystem mechanism to allow choosing between different games without relying on standard installations. Will it be legal? Probably not. Will it happen? I suspect it will.</p>

<p>> Do you think the Egyptians called it Europe?<p>You haven't given any dates, but if you're talking about ancient Egypt, i.e. the Egypt before 0AD, then yes. The term "Europa" was used to refer to the continent around this time by the Greeks, and I don't see why Egyptian people wouldn't have picked up on a useful term they didn't have before.</p>

<p>> at the time that you fervently hope the EU comes to its (clearly deserved, Mr Putin) end<p>I find it funny you think the only reason people would want the end of the EU is if they're a Russian agent. The EU has very little to do with defence. Perhaps your argument would hold more weight if talking about NATO, but even then it's not necessary for countries to be members of NATO in order to collaborate on protection when their collective security interests align.</p>

<p>> Europe hasn't always existed as a concept, and its longevity is unknown.<p>Europe is the name of a continent. What reason(s) would there be to change the name of a continent?<p>In contrast, the EU is a trading block, set up to foster greater pan-European trading relations. It's not the only pan-European institution. For example, the Council of Europe ( <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_of_Europe" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_of_Europe</a> ) is a separate pan-European institution, set up in 1946 which was before the EU or any of the predecessors of the EU, and amongst other projects was behind the formation of the European Court of Human Rights. I bring this up to highlight that we do not need the EU in order to have collaboration between European countries.</p>

<p>> and expectation once the baby is born.<p>This can be resolved by choosing a better man as a partner, one that is supportive and willing to be an equal partner. I understand finding someone that fulfills that as well as this person also being someone you're attracted to and compatible with socially is challenging, but I have seen relationships like this before so I know it's possible.</p>

<p>> I don't understand why they don't just hold another referendum and undo everything.<p>I see you follow the EU model of democracy; keep putting matters up for a vote until you get the result you want.<p>Despite what you may have been led to believe, there's still a substantial number of British people that reject EU membership, and this goes beyond the "racist" and "economically illiterate" arguments that remainers typically fall back on. I would suggest you do what your predecessors did not and consider the consequences of losing.</p>

<p>> Cut throat, self aggrandizing, and a bit of a selfish asshole are all traits that lead to positive outcomes in these roles.<p>Press X to doubt.<p>In my experience, with those types of leaders, success happens despite them not because of them. Someone in a leadership role may have built a strong team around them that can counteract their own toxic behaviours, and they may try to take credit for the successes of their team, but they aren't bringing out the best in that team. Toxic workplaces often start with toxic leadership.</p>

<p>> Piracy on the PlayStation? Also not gonna happen.<p>Piracy has a long history on the PlayStation, going all the way back to the PS1. Every PlayStation (home console and handheld) has had a mod/homebrew scene, including plenty of access to pirated games. I don't see why the PS6 would be any different, regardless of whether the games are distributed digitally or not. The only difference is that more people will be drawn to it if the prices of games are kept high through no second hand market.</p>
