WebGPU Technical Report
Is it really true that those bugs aren't getting fixed? There's a commit from July 18th to SwiftShader that seems to be addressing exactly the bug described in the blog post:

Vulkan drivers for 7 year old PC?
If your GPU does not support Vulkan you can still do some experimenting with a CPU renderer. I've used swiftshader a lot, it's a bit of a pain to compile, but once you manage to do so you can compile and run Vulkan code almost the same as if you had a compatible GPU. The performance of course is not great, but it's better than nothing.

is makeing Vulkan guis worth it?
You also don't get extensive support for various hardware for free – good luck running a Vulkan GUI on a pre-GCN AMD card or a sufficiently old NVIDIA one without a compatibility layer of sorts, which would require bothering with Vulkan Portability (i.e. missing certain Vulkan features due to it being implemented via an older API). The only alternative to that is SwiftShader (which would throw your extremely fast GUI aspirations right outta the window).

With the induction of UE5’s integrated real-time lighting system (Lumen); if developers begin utilizing this technology, and Epic optimizes its CPU performance, do you think it will replace ray-tracing? Should AMD keep chasing this feature?
That's like saying no one needs a GPU anymore because Swiftshader exists.

Swiftshader without watermark?
Btw, if anyone's interested, here's the link to that branch: https://github.com/google/swiftshader/tree/legacy-d3d9

WebGL 2.0 is Now Supported in All Major Browsers
Yeah, there's still a fallback option through the use of Swiftshader if GPU accelerated vulkan isn't an option. If you use Vulkan for GUI, then it'll be fine to use Swiftshader, but if you're trying to play a game on Swiftshader, it'll likely struggle and probably fail.

Name it Better (ideas for making more informative names)
Here's an absolute nightmare example file tree, from the newly open-sourced Valve's audio engine called Steam Audio:
- Steam Audio 4.5.2 released as Open Source
-
Valve Makes All Steam Audio SDK Source Code Available Under Apache 2.0 License
Interestingly, the repo's readme says it works on Win/Mac/Linux, Android and iOS. Wonder if they had builds going but never released them to others.

What happened to environmental audio in PC games?
CS2 sounds cool. It uses Steam Audio.

Steam Audio didn't exist publicly until 2017. This is irrelevant. It has gained some use, but mostly in the VR space.
- Anybody using Steam Audio Spatializer with FMOD and Unity? Still having issues with making it work properly.

BSG The Audio of 12.9 needs to be looked into. If you guys don't believe tarkov is a horror game i have proof.
Heh. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-audio/issues/137
