Keep in mind these bills could force manufacturers to violate open source licenses. Two of the most popular open source firmware systems are licensed GPLv3.

How about accusing video games of causing gun violence in the press release?

I have scanned my website for this infected installer, and it was not present anywhere on my site or my local backups.
For further verification, you can refer to the GPG signatures included in the GitHub releases to ensure the file was made by me and not altered.

This installer was NOT made by me but was altered to include a virus.
To avoid viruses download from dxgl.org or GitHub.

Yet no concerns about bills in New York and Washington State that would effectively ban open source 3D printers?

As a further addendum to this post, the game I had been playing and ensuring DXGL is compatible with, Lands of Lore: Guardians of Destiny Win95 version 1.31, has frame drops when in default multi-core mode, but even setting it to a single E-core the framerate is more steady.

PC version less than 5% as expensive...

Versions of DXGL in the 0.5 series due to an architectural limitation may run slowly with Direct3D games. However, you may be able to boost performance by setting Affinity to single core.
Not sure what weird things are why, but I noticed my Athlon XP was faster than expected.

Actually the scaled primary fix as it stands will not be incompatible with the rewrite. Already got it partially working by triggering a transfer from the scaled surface to the unscaled surface at the end of each D3D scene.

Progress DXGL is currently a work-in-progress and is currently considered alpha-quality software.. See DXGL Features for detailed information. See Version history from the downloads section for release informa...

There will likely be another 0.5 series vesrion of DXGL, for info on planned updates, please see dxgl.org/wiki/Progres...
Except for the scaled primary fix (which will require a rewrite), the fixes listed for 0.5.26 will also be implemented in 0.6.x.

Isn't there court precedent that local and state law enforcement cannot be forced to enforce Federal law?

This bug prevented all Direct3D accelerated games using those DirectX versions from running as the regression involved the creation of "execute buffers" which were how draw lists were implemented in those D3D versions.

I just fixed a regression regarding DirectX 2/3 emulation, which was preventing Lands of Lore: Guardians of Destiny from running in hardware accelerated mode.
Here's a screenshot of the game running at 3840x2160 resolution.

I have resolved some merge conflicts in the 0.5.x branch of DXGL, as I plan on at least one more release. As a result, the minumim Windows 10 requirement will also apply to the next version. Users of previous Windows versions should use the legacy version moving forward.

As a heads-up, older versions of DXGL still work on modern operating systems like Windows 10 and Windows 11; they may be needed for some games as later versions currently have regressions.

You don't understand 2nd District Maine. They voted for Trump in 2024.

Their rhetoric against public education explains why they don't.

Posse Comitatus Act doesn't seem to mean anything to the Administration, so how would we expect them to comply with new regulation?

And don't we already have statute passed by Congress regulating such behavior?

Maybe because these centers are birthing babies from groups the GOP doesn't like?

In light of today's release of Visual Studio 2026, for future versions of DXGL the legacy installer will be required for all Windows versions below 10. This is due to new system requirements for the current v14 Redistributable.

Does Metroid Prime 4 have Phazon, and if so where is it in the timeline?

Page 2 of the subpoena is pretty spicy. Specifically, it asserts authorization on laws involving healthcare fraud, child sexual exploitation, or threats against government officials. At first I was leaning towards the second one, but someone probably ticked off a MAGA government official.

@nintendousa.bsky.social is claiming to be improving their environmental footprint but they have permanently disabled functionality of Switch and Switch 2 systems creating unnecessary e-waste. Any statement?
