There must be one thing causing ALL of these drivers to go nuts. It doesn't make sense for ALL of those things to be problematic.

I have taken some screenshots of a couple Latency Monitor tests I ran, and will upload and attach the results here. The audio issues do NOT appear specific to any of my Audio devices or programs, but rather an issue with WINDOWS itself.

Starting with Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar, big cat names were used as marketing names starting with OS X 10.9 Mavericks, names of locations in California were used as marketing names instead. Mac OS X 10.0 and 10.1 were given names of big cats as internal code names ("Cheetah" and "Puma"). MacOS retained the major version number 10 throughout its development history until the release of macOS 11 Big Sur in 2020. The operating system was further renamed to "macOS" starting with macOS Sierra.įrom the introduction of machines not supporting the classic Mac OS in 2003 until the introduction of iPhone OS in early 2007, Mac OS X was Apple's only software platform. Lion was referred to by Apple as "Mac OS X Lion" and sometimes as "OS X Lion" Mountain Lion was officially referred to as just "OS X Mountain Lion", with the "Mac" being completely dropped. Starting with the Intel build of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, most releases have been certified as Unix systems conforming to the Single Unix Specification. The macOS Server app was discontinued on Apand will stop working on macOS 13 Ventura or later. Starting with Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, macOS Server is no longer offered as a standalone operating system instead, server management tools are available for purchase as an add-on. Since then, several more distinct desktop and server editions of macOS have been released. The desktop version aimed at regular users- Mac OS X 10.0-shipped in March 2001. It was built using the technologies Apple acquired from NeXT, but did not include the signature Aqua user interface (UI). MacOS was first released in 1999 as Mac OS X Server 1.0. To ease the transition for users and developers, versions through 10.4 were able to run Mac OS 9 and its applications in a compatibility layer. The transition was a technologically and strategically significant one. ![]() Īlthough it was originally marketed as simply "version 10" of the Mac OS (indicated by the Roman numeral "X"), it has a completely different codebase from Mac OS 9, as well as substantial changes to its user interface. However, the current macOS is a Unix operating system built on technology that had been developed at NeXT from the 1980s until Apple purchased the company in early 1997. That system, up to and including its final release Mac OS 9, was a direct descendant of the operating system Apple had used in its Mac computers since their introduction in 1984. The history of macOS, Apple's current Mac operating system formerly named Mac OS X until 2011 and then OS X until 2016, began with the company's project to replace its "classic" Mac OS. ![]() The languages to which CapCut can now add captions automatically are English, Korean, Russian, Japanese, Spanish, Indonesian, Italian, Deutsch, French, Chinese, Turkish, Dutch, Thai, Malay, Vietnamese, Romanian, and Portuguese.

Lots of kids play it as well, but there seems to be no shortage of tech workers who are into it. On the other hand, it's my perception that minecraft has a mature and nerdy following too. All three are from the 90s and arguably nerdy. OpenMW is a re-implementation of Morrowind, a fantasy roll-playing game that, by modern standards, is a bit unforgiving to beginners and doesn't have much hand holding. It's similar to TTD (which was a predecessor from the same developer), but with much less focus on logistics and more focus on artistic creativity. OpenRCT2 is a re-implementation of Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 a business simulation game in which you build theme parks. That's an interesting hypothesis, I'm not sure about it. You can keep up with development on our blog: We are working to improve this - we have adopted a roadmap to provide focus. You are right about a lot of the limitations though, such as custom keybindings. The current UI API has improved a lot in the last couple of years One of our developers is working on a new UI API, there's also work on a new mainmenu and maintenance on the existing API There's a settings redesign coming soon as well, the plan is improve the keybindings menu there too You can rebind mouse controls using the config file.

I know I'm being a bit brutal, but Minetest doesn't stand a chance when the expectation is set that it is/will be in the same ball park as Minecraft's level of quality or moddability. Went back to Minecraft for those times I want to play a block game. I eventually quit because it was so frustrating trying to work with that engine and constantly jury rig and compromise solutions. I spent a lot of time making mods for the couple folk I played with.

Tons of stuff is hard-coded, like how tools work, damage calculations, HUD. Forms have terribly poor ergonomics and it's taken a few years now to have elements displaying at the correct coordinates (for a while, different elements had slightly different interpretations of the grid). No custom keybindings, no overriding mouse controls. Entities have huge pop in/out issues and forget about anything crazy like having animal heads rotate to face you. No dynamic skyboxes, no full entity rotation, no way to handle subgrids. Unlike the Java-edition of Minecraft, where anything can be changed, you are limited to their modding API in Minetest. It's barely maintained, especially after one of the big modders and graphics developers died to a heart disease.Īnd with the mods, it's only "easier" at the very surface level. It's (default subgame is) a decade behind Minecraft in terms of usability/features. While it's low-end requirements are better, it runs remarkably poorly for what it is.
