Yeah, GDScript isnt fast and it doesnt need to be. Most games are just 'move thing' code

If you're doing deep computational loops then yes, you'll need something faster and there's plenty of options including compute shaders.

The beauty in GDscript is that you can work incredibly fast in it. As in, change your code while the game is running and see it in realtime. You can't iterate like that in most other languages.

So you make you game in gdscript efficiently, when its getting closer to release you port whats now mature code into C++ for the speed boost. An LLM will happily smash it out for you in minutes.

That would be against Youtubes terms, the video would get pulled.

I think they are confusing Jellyfin with the crazy exploits in Plex recently.

It's probably 2-3 hours a day. Runs latest Kubuntu currently.

No idea but my Framework 12 goes for days without charging. I really haven't seen any real world need for M chips.

Granted Im not compiling large projects on a train all day but who is.

Unlikely. Being open is why they are recommended over Amazon

I have one and love it. I got the colour one as my kids are learning to read and illustrations are a big part.

Had a quick look at it and it's riddled with ideology statements everywhere which is a huge red flag.
